The Downeaster Alexa by Billy joel

[MrBigrobmjca3]

I've been trying to make something of myself in broadcasting as a dj for 4 years. "I know there's fish out there but where God only knows". Here's to all the people who have put years into a carrear and are still trying to make something of themselves! Why did I have to fall in love with a dying industry? I'll never give up.

[TheOisinwillis]

@MrBigrobmjca3 lol should of joined the military

[gallifreyfarm]

@MrBigrobmjca3 People in many fields share your pain.  Each could help others if we'd support local providers instead of concentrated generic crap. I'd much rather hear a real dj than the canned syndicated tripe on the radio. Local foods, mom&pop stores, independent garages, small biz, and entrepreneurial creativity...this is what makes jobs, not some hedge fund bozo who thinks $40 a pay is "nothing," but whines to keep from paying taxes at the same level as *working* people

[entenmannj]

This song is almost as corny as this video.

[Ventro69]

@entenmannj If just ONE sperm beat you, your parents could have had a doctor.

[Pefapefa100]

ALAN HANGOVER! :))))))

[fishingpete100]

@axxis, it is called Atlantis Canyon. Not atlantas, that would be Georgia. We dont tuna fish in the middle of Georgia

[LaBelleMichele]

Just another pretentious, phoney piece of crap from Billy Joel....

[homestarhydon]

@LaBelleMichele If you consider lamenting about the heartbreaks of a common, lower-class worker pretentious and phony, what on earth do you consider a legitimate song?

[jk0745]

@LaBelleMichele you obviously don't live near a fishing port :(

[axXis191]

1:50 "tell my wife I am trolling atlantas"

[mrfrodo144]

This is the saddest song ever... Its a dangerous thing to listen to this, Goodnight Saigon and Leningrad one after the other.

[WindCero]

@Cla900

this song is wicked, i love it Billy Joel is a legend and should be treated as one. He made an impact on the music of today, and should be respected for his music which is epic. I agree with everything you said. you should listen to Toto's version of Africa its a good song too, its the original.

[Cla900]

@WindCero

thanks, i'll check it out :)

[Cla900]

@JrVidKiidd

& if the majority of people could think for themselves instead of being pressured by peers and brainwashed by society, these so called 'musicians' wouldn't sell half as many records.

but sadly, no matter how long i rant things will never change. many people my age simply purchase the hottest song on the billboard and push it aside after a months worth of listening to (frowned upon if they don't).

just be open minded to listening to various music genres & songs, old or new

[Cla900]

@JrVidKiidd

TRY and attempt to get your point across without using profanity or abuse, please?

calling me 'jackass' isn't a great way for your opinion to be respected or taken seriously.

and i stick by what i said.

i think today's artists (eg: rihanna, nicki minaj, lady gaga, ke$ha, chris brown, jay z, miley cyrus etc) have completely ruined the definition of music.

[sarangdande1]

@Cla900 agreed 100%



[NintenFan0900]

I'm glad my parents played music like this around me as a child... I've really got a taste for it now.

[lannaldo]

Hangover 2 brought me here

[MrLittlePidgeon]

Hangover part 2

[jbrentlinger56]

This is true music right here

[Bronsonkicks]

Man this song just KICKS ASS

[thesach13]

@concretesurfer420 louis vuitton



[JrVidKiidd]

@thesach13 he knows how its really spelled its from a movie quote Hangover Part 2 .. where dis song is played in the background

[pnoozi]

Hi, I'm 21 and I apologize if you thought we cared how old you are.

[pandaexpress81]

in your face.

[usergently]

Friggin' great Joel treasure!

[smrtrbl86]

Sorry the name of the boat is the downeaster the name alexa is billy's daughter. Dumbis

[chaosinorderrr]

hangover 2.. movie sucked but the song caught my attention immediately

[blasterskv]

such a strong song, melody, singing and it all spiced up at the end with the shouting... great feeling of liberation...

drums are awesome here

[scimg]

'Hung Like a Donkey 2' brought me here.

[ulfardarri]

It's I took an arrow in the knee ffs and shut up it's not funny awesome song btw :Ð

Hangover 2

[ConcreteSurfer420]

HEY THAT IS A LEWIS VITON BAG!!!

[axXis191]

@ConcreteSurfer420 it´s Louis Vuitton. Don´t make the guy American when he´s not.

[mervotheperv]

THUMBS UP if u can drive better than Billy Joel

[yyenser]

@mervotheperv just blew all my weed out of the rolling paper i lol'd so hard! great comment

[garnet0101]

Adored this song years before the Hangover. Huge Billy Joel fan. So high five to the people who sang the song while the movie was playing.

[mohiahmed1]

@garnet0101 im young i didnt knew this song existed, but on a good note alot of people, kids, saw that movie, and heard this song :) and alot of them prob liked it

[tobilius2008]

I cant repeat how i got here. Im hiding. Nice tune though.

[Trotters222]

Hangover 2 brought me here and i'm so glad for it!

[Trotters222]

Sometimes I'd listen too this through headphones whilst I stared at a Asian on a plane... But I took an arrow to the knee!

[joshlopez1975]

Me to

[craiger1088]

Sometimes I listen to this song in headphones while I stare at Asians I don like

[kbritu]

I'm here because of Billy Joel !!!

[MrStallownage]

Why does it matter if I heard this song on the Hangover? Aren't you pleased that people remember and want to know more about this one, than the other Kanye West rapper bullshit that was also in the film? I've been a Bruce Springsteen fan for years, do you think I care when someone discovers him through Glee or something? No, I'm just happy that there's still people who appreciate good music, and the more exposure it gets the better.

[DPijan]

Screw life, I'm just going to buy a boat and live on the water.

[tquidort]

yeah Im here only because of the movie hangover

[salsawhoo]

Love this song! I remeber hearing it as a kid when my dad played it in the car, I forgot about it until I heard it on the Hangover. I'm 19 now and it sounds much better than i remebered :)

[enfieldmike]

old music kicks ASS

[Nasolini1]

Hello, i'm 18 and i apologize what my generation have done with the music these days.

[gavin7850x]

@Nasolini1 I second that.

[EvH920410]

@Nasolini1 its just failure of imagination someone will break the hold of our mental confinement one day.

[JrVidKiidd]

@Nasolini1 out generation has not done shit to music stfu and no one cares how old you are..

[sarangdande1]

@JrVidKiidd yes ur generation has done super shit on music dont argue something u cant understand ...

[JrVidKiidd]

@sarangdande1 o.k saying super does not apply in that context so refrain from that in the future, and i listen to classical music such as Beethoven , and my generations music tell me what has my generation done to music... if you don't like it listen to something else.. don't blame an entire generation for what artist choose to produce.. and on the point of me understanding you neanderthal, i understand you low level of intellect.

[sarangdande1]

@JrVidKiidd Your yappin doesnt make me wrong and you know it ... and by today's generation I mean today's artists .... almost all of them ... You wanted me to tell what your generation has done to music LOL are u blind or deaf or just plain ass dumb ..... go listn today's generation with studio altered sounds, and brother please dont be a cry baby .....

[JrVidKiidd]

@sarangdande1 learn how to spell so i can understand you .. and using lol in context is not grammatically correct.. if what you say is true then your generation ruined music by the generation before you.. when you were a child your parents would say your music, is crap and " generation have done with the music" you should really think outside the box, not in your simple minded world .. by the way what are you currently doing with your life ?

[sarangdande1]

@JrVidKiidd go tell that ur generation ... i.e. bieber, black, minaj, mia, gaga, cyrus, etc etc, i dont have a whole day to list crap bags ...... u seriously need to grow up ... abusing others doesnt make u right ..

[jk0745]

@sarangdande1 what about New Kids on the Block

[Nasolini1]

@JrVidKiidd Introducing ''stfu'' is already a shit enough. Just as dubstep. Btw, my age is crucial in my post. How should readers suppose know from what generation i am? (smartass)

[JrVidKiidd]

@Nasolini1 music is muisc everyone has there taste no generation did anything to music just altered it to there like if you disagree with a song or don't like it then don't listen to it instead

[crAwN88]

@Nasolini1

Same here, only 18yr. I found Billy Joels songs a couple days ago, and yes, we are truly sorry...

[supelkeke305]

@Nasolini1 i second that.

[pappflora12]

@Nasolini1

I'm joining you with the apology. (I am 17)

[VitorTrentini]

@Nasolini1 I'm from the actual generation and i dont like my generation musics, so what?

[Nasolini1]

@VitorTrentini So nothing, i just apologize!

[thukon]

@Nasolini1 Same here. I am 18 and I must say I have no idea what people judge music based on nowadays. They say they like good singing, but Lady Gagas music is horrible, and Adeles music isnt that great either. Dont get me started on nicky minaj and pitbull.

[jk0745]

@thukon This song came out in 1989... do you even realize how much shitty music was out at that time. There was a lot of good music and a lot of shitty music- just like today

[axXis191]

@Nasolini1 Hi I am older than you and we are all very tired of this repetitive and idiotic comment that we have to read everywhere on damn youtube. I think you would make more service to everyone if you just stop it.

[jk0745]

@Nasolini1 you should apologize for how little you know about music. Search around and you'll find some awesome music.

[enfieldmike]

I LOVE THIS SONG AND NO I DID NOT COME HERE CUZ HANGOVER 2 THIS SONG IS JUST AS IT IS .YOU GUYS HAVE TO LIKE MUSIC ON ITS OWN

[coolkingler1]

@enfieldmike Good for you, but your capslock is on.

And really, nobody cares whether you were here before hangover 2 or not.

[Theraclese]

fucking idiots, i'm here sheerly because i've actually known of good music

[BassHeadsProduction]

FUCK THE THUMBS UP SYSTEM AND FUCK BIG RED AND FUCK YOU TOO IS THERE A LONG JOHN SILVERS ON THE ISLAND?

[willisapril]

Personally I loved The Hangover 2 and I'm also fan of anyone who could get a blonde in a Ferrari cranking Little Boy Sweet by the Pointer Sisters.

[Nosteratees]

Wolfpack only.......find another chair.

[PainKiller2364]

Thumbs up if your here cuz of Hangover ll.

[TheLeroyVanDykeShow]

I think we all know and appreciate this song now. As a fan of Hangover II I would like to apologize for the words of my fellow Hangoverians who say people are only here because of this film. Thumbs up if you accept my apology!!!

[MrRob89bie]

@TheLeroyVanDykeShow Stop begging for thumbs up, you weak human.

[jonny99981]

Hangover 2 made me come here!

[fenrack301]

Allow me to set things straight, yes i discovered this from the hangover. Does this make me ignorent, no, i am just apreciating art.

[poolboy5623]

thumbs up to the "cool people" insulting the Hangover 2 audience. Wow..I'm not going to stoop to that level. I am glad it was in the movie though as millions more get to hear it now. Whats so wrong with that!?

[rdevin31]

thumbs up if you think the people that had to watch the hangover in order to discover this song are either children or sheltered!

[MrQuoteMan]

Hangover Part Two?

Nono. I actually bought the record.

[MrRob89bie]

Haha what the eff is wrong with you all? Why are all the Billy fanboys so angryface? Hilarious.

[CrazedPoptarts]

My Teacher Mr.Fitsgerald Played This Song In Class And i Fell In Love With It.

Thanks Mr.Fitsgerald. Miss You.

[AccordingToMariah]

@CrazedPoptarts

Many of my favorite songs today I have discovered through teachers who play songs like this one in class <3

.....Unfortunately, Hangover II brought me here :S Shame on me. And the movie sucked.

[krishow961]

reminds me of growing up on LI love this song

[heavykt34]

Does anyone know where you can find the images in this video there's a couple here I want

[1Dibbers]

I love how all these people only know this song from The Hangover part II. The same people would have laughed at others for listening to Billy Joel through sheer ignorance.

[GuitarFro92]

i sure dont wanna be a previous fuck

[webwawa]

Hey Lipika, I have a new video form November! Still alive, check it out: youtube . com / webwawa

[buubacous]

Billy,

Gloucester , Massachusetts loves and thanks you very much !

[travisvannatter1]

the hangover 2

[22Decembrie1989]

Perhaps the greatest achievement of this movie is relaunching this song

[nabz1877]

Hangover 2 bought me here

[MineCraftMrMoo]

omg how do my parents know about this guy and not tell me!

[Ventro69]

I am here because of Hangover II and you elitist pricks can suck my fatty. Awesome song, don't care how you got here.

[gluue3]

[22Decembrie1989]

@gluue3 OMFG I am 27 and I never heard this song before now!! rivers of shame on me!!!

[krishow961]

@22Decembrie1989 just be glad you found it now its a great tune

[bobbybrown2k1]

@scottjp123 thats EXACTLY wat happened! Lol

[scottjp123]

[jrushmen]

Being from New England I can honestly say that Gloucester , Ma says thank you Billy !!

[prompeguru]

Hangover 2 yeeey

[reltubnahte]

Thumbs up if you regret scrolling down.

Uploader: cool pictures.

[axelles4455]

GUYS IT DOESN'T MATTER IF U"VE ALWAYS LOVED THIS SONG OR HEARD IT IN THE HANGOVER WHAT MATTERS IS THAT WE ARE ALL APPRECIATING THE SONG.

[rottening]

thumbs up if you are here because of the hangover and that all these previous fucks that were "thumbing up" are lying

[gwenstefanimylove]

I don't have a problem admitting that I first heard of the song from Hangover 2. I didn't move to the United States until 1996 so I think that I can be excused. It should be played in the classics on the radio but it isn't. Some radio DJs should lose their jobs for that!!!

Anyway, I am glad that I did hear this song. I don't see why it is such a negative thing to have heard of the song from Hangover 2.

[townie76]

@gwenstefanimylove I'm not from America. I don't need to move from a Western country unlike yourself who is an illegal immigrant. That's ok though. So what concerns me is you didn't thumb up. We all know you need to have some thumbs. Just admit you saw it on the Spanish Hangover 2 movie and all will be well. It's a kind of ceasefire.

[gwenstefanimylove]

@townie76 Ok. First off, who the hell told you that I was Spanish? Second, who told you that I was illegal? I was born to A U.S. Master Chief of the Navy (MCPON) on American soil in Naples, Italy. How can you have the audacity to call me an illegal immigrant!?

Think before you speak. My mother is Greek and she is legal, and I have been an American citizen from birth.

Boy, people such as yourself really are stupid!!

[sebastiannutti]

The hangover 2 made me come here!

[dusica9]

@sebastiannutti Hahaha, me to. And i am happy '

cause of that.

[SuperHappyman1000]

@sebastiannutti fuk yes

[GodImHideous]

[sebastiannutti]

@GodImHideous u not gonna get any likes with that comment

[GodImHideous]

@sebastiannutti i'm not trying to get likes i'm trying to teach your ignorant immigrant ass how not to sound like a fucking pillow biter but if that floats your boat then rock n roll

[sebastiannutti]

@GodImHideous i got 70 likes , u got nothing to say to me

[GodImHideous]

@sebastiannutti you got 70 likes because people saw the same movie as you, pat yourself on the back why dontcha, clever motherfucker you must be. fuckin faggot, uhhhhh hangover 2 made me cum!!!! ohhhhhh.....fuckin queer shut the fuck up

[sebastiannutti]

@GodImHideous just like my comment , i know u want it , dont get mad bro / sis :(

[GodImHideous]

[sebastiannutti]

[GodImHideous]

@sebastiannutti i just owned you six ways from sunday. conversation is over. i'm the bigger man, so i'll let you get the last word. til next time sebasshole

[CuntCuntington]

[mmmmBEARS]

[mmmmBEARS]

thumbs up IF YOU DONT GIVE A FUCK HOW YOU FOUND OUT ABOUT THE SONG, AND EVERYONE THAT DOES NEEDS TAKE THE RYHNO OUT OF THEIR ASS???

[filmdirector8888]

[grimmss1]

@Elifeftw do you love them a lot its yes or no

[polishclark]

@grimmss1 are you taking the long and roundabout way of setting up the lamest comeback ever? And yes, it's a yes or no question.

[grimmss1]

@polishclark fix me a sandwich you dumb cunt

[sjellebie]

Heard this song years ago, and liked it then..but forgot it existed untill i saw the hangover pt 2: as soon as i heard the song, it brought back that good old time when i played it an hour on repeat :). Gives me this warm and satisfying feeling, love it!

[jbell2184]

jfatproductions is a douchebag

[poojaaher9823166638]

Hangover 2 ;)

[RedTideOfWolves]

There is a woman, she is the love of my life, and that is why this song is my most beloved

[urchinsoup]

this song goes too far back for me.....I like the first hangover movie to a point...haven't seen the second....but this song is one my dad played for me when I was like friggin' 10. It's a great song, and now I fear every moron on the planet who happens to like movies like the hangover are now familiar with this great song, and they will never appreciate just how good it is.

[SixteenOrigins]

I've never even seen Hangover pt. 2.

[jonnyaspincher]

fisherman cherish this song in New England! U apprecaite it more when u have been on the ocean for log periods of time. im from Maine I relate to this for i long to be nantuckett bound!

[VarietyMusicLover]

yes Hangover 2 brought me here i'm glad it did such a beautiful song

[verdasium]

uhhhh. dont you hate it when you finally think of a good comment but then you see someone already posted it and you think " That could've been me with the top comment......but its not"

[crabenavi]

It was often heard to youth.

Energy came out also to disagreeable work.

JPN guy

[bonghit0n3]

heard it on the hangover2 very cool song.

[wertzui19871229]

1:51 .: "Tell my wife im trolling Atlantis" ???

[sprayarm]

@wertzui19871229 referring to the Atlantis Canyon out in the Atlantic SE of Long Island (Montauk) where the ocean floor drops off. Google Map "Atlantis Canyon"

[dmv198]

@wertzui19871229

trawling atlantis.....like cruising by it.... trawling is pronounced "trolling"

[wertzui19871229]

@wertzui19871229 Thank you for your explanations but i think Billy Joel still trolling us. Also the vid and the song is cool.

[BennickGAdeus]

@wertzui19871229 the actual term is "trawling" but it is pronounced that way. :P

[condric92]

A very beautiful song !!!:)

[Bodogjoe]

I am here because any song with a pan flute is fucking amazing. Zamfir ftw.

[22Decembrie1989]

@Bodogjoe Gheorghe Zamfir!

[tuadolcefanciulla]

To LipikaDG: I love Billy Joel. He's brilliant. (And I'm in opera.) I especially want to thank you for the magnicent choice of art you've chosen. This is a magnificent posting in every way.

[radojkaskundric]
