Billy Joel’s first single in 31 years picks up seamlessly from stellar career. The song’s lyrics are personal and poignant, fitting into his incredible catalog of hits without missing a beat — really.
The song will remind you of “Piano Man” and “She’s Always a Woman,” heavy on classical sounding piano and an undeniable rich melody that folds back into an instantly catchy hook. What a pleasure to get this gift after such a long time.
We can only hope Billy will put together a few more new songs, but if this is it, it’s a worthy cap to an amazing career.
