The two best songwriters in rock history to write lyrics of deep emotion are Billy Joel & the late Dan Fogleberg.

He said in an interview that the way they were doing this tune wasn't really working, and someone suggested trying a bossa nova beat. Gold!

One of the most simple, meaningful, and uncomplicated love songs ever written.<br>Unconditional love. <br>I was lucky enough to have experienced that for 50 years and to return it in kind....and even now that he has passed away, I still love him in every moment just the way he is and wouldn't change a thing.<br>I wish everyone could have that experience.<br>Billy says it perfectly.<br>I love you Bob.💞

Billy Joel was inducted into the Songwriters HOF in 1992, the R&R HOF in 1999, and the Long Island Music HOF in 2006. In 2013 he was recognized at the Kennedy Center Honors. Thanks for reacting, love your channel.

The man is a fabulous entertainer, pianist and song writer. Check out "New York State of Mind" Incredible song.... try to find a live version at Yankee stadium or Madison Square Garden.

What a great reaction! In between the silliness of Disco, the craziness of Glam and the madness of Punk we had Billy Joel. Thank God!!

What a great song. Every man wishes he could find someone he fells this way about. Few of us actually do.

It's not "you're perfect the way your mother birthed you", it's "I love you, the way you are, no matter what" unconditional love. Like your mother loves you, no conditions, no strings, no need to change anything about you because I love you. If your hair is brown, blond, pink or purple, it doesn't matter, because I love you and it's your hair. "Woman, you don't have to change anything to get my love. You've had it from the start because I love you, not your hair, not your clothes, not your makeup, just you, anyway you are." This is the way a real man loves his woman. He can't help it because he's a real man and not some overgrown boy.

Barry White covered this song and his version is definitely PDC worthy.

It’s more of a romantic song than it is a PDC type song. Let’s call it 75/25 romantic to PDC but that’s an awesome thing to be. I remember reading an interview with Paul Simon back in the 80’s in which he both complimented and criticized Billy at the same time. He basically said that Joel is so versatile and such a good mimic that he sometimes has trouble being himself. Billy could be Harry Chapin on one song then sound similar to Elvis. After that he may be Paul McCartney and then Ray Charles. While I see Simon’s point I think that in all these things we find Billy Joel.
