I simply love Billy Joel's music, it's some of the best composed marvels in musical history.

In my opinion his best song is Movin' Out.

I gained a newfound respect for Joel when I was forced to see that stupid musical based around his work. It sucked, but the guys who played the music were damn good.

I like Piano Man, myself.

Always a Woman and Pianoman are my favorites from him. He has some nice songs but only for when I'm in an oversentimental mood.

Wait, I just got the essential Billy Joel, and I see it has River of Dreams, it may not sound familiar but this song was used so damn much in jungle oriented movies.

It's replaced Movin' Out!

Well the Piano Man is a classic that always gives me shivers (really dangerous when listening to it in the car while driving), but I don't know why - I prefer River of Dreams. It's so disgustingly upbeat - I just can't help getting in a good mood if a hear it.

I'm completely with you there. It's fun music to sing (really badly) along with

...but like you said, only when you're feeling overly sentimental or cheesey LOL

Billy Joel is kinda like piano-rock-blues.

Certainly not country, though.

Think Elton John.
