Billy Joel- Prelude/ Angry young man

[KaylisAmericanis]

I think that Green Day could do an AWESOME cover of Angry Young Man.

[Graemeandarchie]

OMG Brilliant...............Billy you just get better and better

[Elenasfinalcut]

I love you !!!!!!!

[BigBossInc]

Y'know who else was an angry young man?

Osama Bin Laden

Just sayin.

[ironboy7777]

@BigBossInc - You're a fuckin DORK. Just sayin.

[44t56]

Feb. 3rd, 1959- the day the music died

1993- the year the music stopped being recorded by Billy Joel

The connection is that these are two very saddening events in music history

[death9719]

i'm an anarchist, so am i the angry young man?

[234helenrose]

@death9719 The "Angry Young Man" is a putz. Does that describe you?

[death9719]

@234helenrose whats a putz? and i am a angry idealist

[SuperPsiphi]

who is the sister on percussions.

[mrcomputerwiz101]

I love this particular Billy Joel song. I love when he plays the fast part. I have this song on my iPod too!

[stayinclassy247]

why is this lowered? booo

[camby118]

@stayinclassy247

the dude's old. Inevitably he's lost some of his range.

[camp7203]

And we've gone from C major to B major. Multiple DUI's make the key lower apparently.

[Ladybird41]

where and when did this performance take place?

[caulinrocker1]

@Ladybird41 i think its the tokyo dome performance from 2006

[Ladybird41]

@caulinrocker1 thanks! i think it should be in the description.

[BazzaJ0hn]

his bass player is aussie!!

[Bowlen000]

@BazzaJ0hn From Adelaide

[schoemdan]

2 People must be really angry men

[mikeisamusician]

Drummer almost loses the beat at 4:10

[triondrummer]

@mikeisamusician not really! ;) Maybe the Fill was a bit "sloppy"...but he wasn´t about to loose it!

[bizhelper2006]

Liberty Devito is amazing. He actually makes the song that much better. Check out the version with him at the drums. A world of a difference.

[craig447]

Awesome

[galihauli]

how can you hate liberty devito man he was like the greatest drummer of all time, he sang with the drums.

[MyDesertIslandMyDisc]

I think the phrase 'Give the guy a f****n' break' after decades of entertaining us .. is appropriate here :)

[TheRobSmith69]

@MyDesertIslandMyDisc yes im there with you on that one! for decades ive been enjoying this mans music and it was up until just now that i realized that i was the angry young man! ive been Totally amazed by the music and talents and friends that help him get buy scence i was ...well you know!! any ways , in my observations............ BillyJoel is one of the biggest examples of what is purely amazing entertainment. ( some people!??? WTF? ) nuff said.

[hdcantona]

@kimurak - he's had to do that with many/most of his songs because of his age really...

Movin Out etc

[kimurak]

He's transposed this to a lower key! Did anyone else notice this?

[VerendumProductions]

@kimurak I know, it's really sad that age can affect such a strong voice! He still sounds fantastic to me, though.

[Ignore14]

@VerendumProductions Age deepens your voice, and makes it harder to sing high. it doesn't make you any worse of a singer, you just can't hit those high notes.

[VerendumProductions]

@Ignore14 I still think he sounds great.

[Ignore14]

@VerendumProductions that's the whole point, he does sound great, he just can't sing as high. that's pretty much it.

[MyDesertIslandMyDisc]

@kimurak What next...he's got less hair than he had when he sang Piano Man in 1973??? ffs!! :)

Observant is a contexual thing m8!

[pattroni]

This guy is Chuck Burgi? plays a lot better than Liberty, but LIVE, where the major deVito's flaws where. This version is amazing. I loved DeVito in his style and arranging (Billy claims some of his song's final setup came from him) but hated him when playing this special song.

[KennyIngram10]

how can someone play this fast?

[caulinrocker1]

@KennyIngram10 his piano just has realy good action (meaning the keys come back up quickly after being pressed)

[thegenrl]

@KennyIngram10 well, hes kinda pretty good. he's "the entertainer" for christ stake!

[death9719]

look up Sin Dios 1936 and click on the english sub version then say this song is awesome

[Sooung]

@death9719 It's pro communism Spanish garage band shit.

[death9719]

keep the fire of Catalonia alive VIVA LA REVOLUTION were all the Catalan rebels who revolted against Franco pointless crazy idealist dreamers were the heroes of Matewan Joe Hill Kropotkin dead on hunger strike in Siberia for criticizingly the Russian "communists" (really opportunistic Hitlirite statists) all dead for the allies in world war 2 the free French forces and all the other revolutionaries and heroes

[death9719]

2 people have ideals and morals

[death9719]

and lost there ideals

[death9719]

13 people have given up on there dreams

[death9719]

as far as the point of the song its wrong through anarcho syndicaism the angry young man could win out

[SXQX7]

I'll never ever forget Billy Joel

Just soo damn amazing and makes me want to be a better pianist!

[death9719]

@SXQX7 idealists

[death9719]

@SXQX7 anarchy this song is depressing 

[devon12ish]

WHo could dislike this!?!?!?!?! oh and what type of piano is that?

[joshonator12]

Such an epic song!

[death9719]

@joshonator12 for people how have given up yes not for people with ideals

[LeofishStudios]

When and where was this filmed?

[antweezy171]

@LeofishStudios......This was in Tokyo back in 2006.
