@ninjacoralinekitty it was written for his first ex-wife &Liberty Devitto (the drummer) was in his band at that time too & he is making fun of the lyrics that must have applied then but don't any more so seem a bit embarrassing now.....The reason he skips the verse about "don't change the colour of your hair" is because Mark Rivera (on saxophone) plays the wrong section or comes in too early with the sax part that leads him (Billy) with nowhere to go except into the bridge.

@amazed66 Yep, this is the face to face Elton John tour from '98.

What's up with the weird faces during "Just the Way You Are?" He looks confused. And why did he skip a verse? That verse was my favorite.

it's funny to see eye contacts with drummer and faces he is making during Just The Way You Are, we all know why he's doing it. Damn, I'll never leave a man that wrote something like that for me. :)

@nontandasu3 @nontandasu3 That's OK and no need to be sorry, it's just that a few of us were trying to pin down the date just as a matter of interest but thanks for putting up the video anyway.....I see you're on the ball anyway and have already updated it......you don't muck about, do you? :P
If you wanted more views though it might be worth adding The Stranger into the title for when people search for the song as well as the singer Billy Joel.

the cheesy dave rosenthal synth is killing me. just play a friggan hammond organ and be done with it.

This isn't from '88. Billy didn't have a beard in '88, or any gray. This is from the River Of Dreams period.
Maybe it was just a typo but I'm almost certain it's '98 on a Face to Face tour with Elton John. The Stranger was a hit in Japan so that would probably be why he put it in his set list. In '88 he probably would have done the whistling himself too.
He later does I Go To Extremes (from Storm Front '89) and The River Of Dreams (from River of Dreams '93) so '88 would be too early.
