I don't belong in limos or private jets or on stage with people cheering me but that's what's kept me grounded because I know it's not right.
Billy JoelDon't go changing to try and please me You never let me down before Don't imagine you're too familiar And I don't see you anymore I would not leave you in times of trouble We never could have come this far I took the good times, I'll take the bad times I'll take you just the way you are Don't go trying some new fashion Don't change the color of your hair. [...] I could not love you any better I love you just the way you are.
Billy JoelI am, as I've said, merely competent. But in an age of incompetence, that makes me extraordinary.
Billy JoelI started taking piano lessons when I was about four years old. My parents were both musicians. So I took piano lessons. I didn't like the lessons very much, but I was enchanted by music. Music always transported me somewhere. Singing made feel good and being able to play the piano made me feel good.
