we can all relate to the people in this song, we all have dreams and hopes that we know are just a little out of reach. we all feel sometimes like our dreams are just, dreams.

Yes, I agree it's Dylanesque, and frankly one of the best written songs ever written. I love how he says the piano sounds like a carnival, and sure enough, it's in 12/8 waltz timing. It has that merry go round feel. And the lyrics are perfection! People in a bar talking about failed dreams and drowning their sorrows. You can get so inside of it. Everybody knows someone from this song. Genius!
@Evster2012 Im gonna say thanks too. I dont forget that the "microphone smells like a beer"... Hes been drowing his own sorrows too... Its an... amazing song!
at my wedding and funeral i want BILLY JOEL -Piano man.........................................plllllllzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. . . ., love the tract
@war116 Same here. I thought maybe Dylan covered it. Don't get me wrong, I love Bob, but some of his covers......... suck... *ducks and covers and hides from the mob or rabid Bob Dylan fans who will kill me*
nice but you've got the lyrics wrong dude, I think.
Paul is a "real estate novelist", so he's writing a book I'd imagine he's not finished or not started.
The song is about people not fulfilling their dreams or, at least, dreaming of another life. Barman wants to be a hollywood movie star, waitress practising politics etc.
@blueribbonash haha I read his comment and listened to the song again while reading the lyrics. Then I was like what? he got them perfect! Then I read this comment and felt dumb...
@blueribbonash i read his comment and listened to the song again while reading the lyrics - the i was like what?? he got them perfect! then I read this comment and felt dumb...

@knowurlimits True, in it's essence. However, I think your over thinking everthing. This is a song describing "life" in every situation. NY, LA, north plat Nebraska.... it doesn't matter because it is all the same. It is the song of divercity, life the same, but different.

A good piano player is awesome. A good piano player that can also play harmonica is talented... but an excellent piano player that can play harmonica at the same time AND sing is BILLY JOEL!
It song is beautifull
esta cancion es hermosa. =)

IMO Dylan photo should not be there no matter what ad hoc reasons the uploader could find.
Dylan's photo is even in a snapshot of the video, that does not make sense.
Anyway, amazing song.
