Root Beer Rag

[ACDCandGNRrock]

James last, trumpets, violins, WAY BETTER.

[LIRRJC]

i love how the piano revolves its just so.....cute. Sorry but Billy plays it about 3X as fast and doesnt even need an orchestra.

[Beatlerock4]

It reminds me of the step game from wii fit

[KMocker]

this guy play stiff and needs all the clapping and croud noise, Billy Joels version is 10x better.

[simonepianista]

Che pena! Rispetto a Billy appare un principiante!

[BillyJorik]

and still Billy is better ;)

[brentbanaagbaab]

Billy is better because of his performance... But this music is better than his version. O come on!! It was too fast... and this is THE BEST VERSION of this song (for me though)

[BillyJorik]

don't think so. It is a rag, not some kind of classic stuff. Maybe the version of 1978 that's here on Youtube is a little fast, but this is way to slow...

[brentbanaagbaab]

But i like this one!!!!

[BillyJorik]

That's your problem ;)

[brentbanaagbaab]

^_^

[Jitter]

I like this tempo and version. What are you guys all worked up about - it sounds perfectly fine!

I like it, 'cos it's a bit funky!

[stefi144]

you are the idiot because you do not acknowledge the talent of clayderman

[louswire]

Clayderman popped it... I knew it was going to go wrong during the intro... Clayderman isn't even as good as the guy at Disneyland.... and what's all this trash your talking about BILLY JOEL... HE wrote this!!!

idiots!

[ramirezromedu]

mierda es mi video favorito ahh

[stefi144]

Clayderman the best one!!!! billy good but according to me Clayderman the favourite!!!Clayderman the prince of romance!!!!

[jmortiz271]

Billy Joel's version is WWAAYY better!!

This slow version sounded cool, though.

[stefi144]

Clayderman is the father of the piano. Joel singer but Clayderman a pianist and he can come up with one like that merely with a piano what billy does not know with a song!!!

[stefi144]

it is possible to finish it!!! Clayderman knows much one like that what Billy will never know but this is in this manner reversely ,it is necessary to denigrate nobody with a word here!!!

[drumboy1985]

Billy the the best

[bluebr5]

gay

[josephtierney11]

It was okay, give him a break people.. I played this on the organ to a crowd once and they enjoyed it and I thought I was crap!

[ernie1968]

It's not the Billy Joel version but I think its not a bad intrepretation of his work. He added something to make it his own. I like the orchestra and I think some of the video shots are intersting. Not bad I think. No body can beat the Joel version anyway.

[ImNotshDrunkOfficer]

Oh man...that was awful. Richard Clayderman=amazing song butcherer.

[ssstevenash]

Everybody who things that the faster you play the better you are I can say: you are fools...

by the way, Clayderman can play the same speed not worse, I heard by myself...

[pistaaaaaa]

Így van !!!!!!!!!!!! Isten!!!!!!!!!!!!

[zsZombee]

Be lehet kussolni csicskák Clayderman egy isten.

[gacpianoman]

What is with Richard's lame ass clapping? It looks like he's learning how to for the first time in his LIFE! woah...

[JoelFan95]

do us a favor butcher other peples songs!!!!!!!!!

[pdplexml17]

Watch the audience. They're like robots. Just as lively as the performer. Yikes.

[SirAlejandron]

this is terrible!!!!..how a great song can sound this bad!!!..and this gay!!!!

[Thm1990]

Oh man what a skill...Billy Joel plays on a MOVING STAGE too...and he plays faster and much better...so I can say that s a poor man...

[jaxonosu]

what do you mean? he can play it on a MOVING STAGE. clearly billy joel doesn't make this guy look like a tool.

[merc142]

Billy Joel composed it. Richard Clayderman butchered it.

[Juppy1961]

A very nice song, I played it on saxophone in orchestra.
