  • Hard to comment on " total perfection "

  • one of my favorite songs of all time..by far...we need more songs like these

  • Que Cancion !!!!!! Gracias Billy, este tema me acompaño en mis momentos mas complicados!!! GRACIAS !!!!

  • Oddly enough, the radio edit of this song is superior to this album version. The 2nd verse and 3rd chorus were deleted, the 3rd verse was moved in front the 2nd chorus, and the fade out was altered slightly. The impact of that version is direct and resonant while in this longer cut Billy sounds like he is stretching and laboring to make the song more profound but he ultimately ends up lessening its impact. In this case, less was more.

  • @industrialsun you are so fully wong.  it adds to the "soul" of the song

  • This song is remembered by so many because it touched so many includeing myself

  • Billy Joel. A heart on his sleeve all about soul kind of guy

  • My husband just dedicated this song to me. *melts into a puddle of appreciation*

  • This is such a good song. What is the soul?

  • @themooddisorders its hard to explain, but if you lose it your basically not human anymore, thats my idea of it

  • @Noeladishi you're*

  • Great song!!!!

  • One of Billy Joel's best songs!

  • I LOVE this song....one of Billy's finest.....I can never get enough of it....thanks for posting it

  • This should have been one of Billy's biggest hits. The lyrics of this song really pack a punch and speak to all of us. When you listen to the witty, intelligent lyrics this guy wrote in almost all of his songs, you realize nobody on the charts today has this kind of talent.

  • My parents used to play Joel's River of Dreams album in the car when I was about 10. I've loved this song ever since.

  • 2 dislikes. Really? This is an awesome song and a dislike proves that you are not a true Billy Joel Fan.

  • ¡ Tremenda !

  • I love this song so much. It's just so touching. I hope one day to be in a relationship where the sentiments are given as well as taken with my soulmate

  • The best rock love song I've ever heard. It's not rushed, and it's worth all six minutes it takes to listen to it.

  • Although it's an old song, it says great things. Aunque es una canción vieja, dice grandes cosas.

    Thanks.

  • thats a really cool watch at 5:56

  • You can rip the audio-mp3 of this video at grabtubesnow doht cohm.

  • Billy was Doin it like only Billy Can ...

  • My favorite Billy Joel song! As far as I'm concerned the breakdown starting at 3:00 can last forever!

  • found on 'River of Dreams' album...

  • The one person who disliked this has no soul.

  • She's really nice. She gave me an autograph and we talked about which different songs get us through the day. Kings of Leon was cited as one of both of our favorites and of course her father. So sad for her that she attempted suicide shortly thereafter over an asshole boyfriend who left her, definitely not worth it. But I'm glad she's doing so much better and going back out there entertaining crowds in small venues, it's cooler. She's been through a lot, she could write songs about it all.

  • @Number1UltimateMJFan Damn lucky, I went exactly 1 year ago to Hard Rock FL, there weren't events though <.<

  • One of his best yet underrated songs. Best line: This life isn't fair. It's gonna get dark, it's gonna get cold. You gotta get tough, but that ain't enough. It's ALL ABOUT SOUL. I had the wonderful opportunity of meeting his daughter Alexa Ray, for which he wrote 2 songs (The Downeaster Alexa and Lullabye, both also underrated), and she has just as much talent as he does when it comes to singing and playing the keys. Saw her at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood FL last winter.

  • i remember when i was about 5 i found about this song and from that day i fell in love with it LOL im 17 now.........LOL

  • this song reminds me about my dog, she died last tuesday, may 11, 2010

  • AMAZING SONG

  • Who's standin now, who's standin tomorrow? :) love that line

  • This is my favorite song ever. It cheers me up when I am sad.

  • I really dig the chord progressions in the song.

  • This song was released when my life was at an all time low , it was so apt and reminded me of what I really was , I've never looked back since . Thank you very much for posting it and thank you very much Billy

  • This song soothes me when I feel really low. It's so special and reminds me to stay strong ( - ;

  • quanto mi piace questo pezzo.. adoro la tua voce..

  • One of my favorite songs of all time and needs to be brought to the surface again.

    I have a tribute version on my site if anyone is interrested.

  • This is a stunning song. I've not heard it before but the lyrics are so touching

  • I also think the lyrics are great, that is why I wanted to post the song.

  • Comment removed

  • @DazedSheep this man's lyrics are always amazing. I've been a fan since I was six years old, dancing around the livingroom to the Innocent Man, Storm Front, and River of Dreams albums...all of his albums, really =) Thanks for the post, vfonjack--took me back!!

  • @DazedSheep the album , storm front is good

  • @DazedSheep Yeah it was not played on radio for long like other songs did in the 90's. I believe this song came on on late 1994.

  • @tootsiejoon I think it was released in the late 80's

  • @killingracists No, It was not. It was released in 1993....I was right... and the album called river of dreams.

  • @tootsiejoon Yeah, broda, you got it right; I was confused with his previous album, which, by the way, was as fucking as this one. Cheers!

  • @tootsiejoon I meant "as fucking good as this one"

  • @killingracists I got you.Cheers

  • @DazedSheep It was late 1993 not 94.

  • Awesome song!

    Thanks for posting =)
