Happy birthday, Billy Joel,

Your music has been A Matter of Trust to your fans for years. Don’t know whether you’re truly An Innocent Man, but when you sit down at that Baby Grand, you are indeed, a Piano Man of high regard. Glad you’ve seen many summers come and go proving that not Only The Good Die Young.

Since you’ve stopped actively making music, don’t know whether you Say Goodbye to Hollywood, or still retain A New York State of Mind, but either way, your talent has been strong For The Longest Time.

..And So It Goes.

Dude gotta be 80 LOL.

Nice tribute, TonyB06!

One of Mr. Joel's early songs included lyrics about people named Brenda and Eddie; it's a song that ran thru my head often watching contestants Brenda and Eddie during current tv season of Survivor:Caramoan.

I love him, my husband ADORES him, and youngest son just used The Longest Time as his senior year show choir audition song.

I adore him for so many reasons, but this, this is amazing if you haven't seen it by now:
