Billy Joe needs to make a second part to this from 1989 to 2023. Imagine all the things he can fit into that song. So much has happened since 1989. And most of it tragic

How does this not have more views it’s amazing

I like how the form of media evolves as the timeline and verses go by. From photograph-like clips, to a roll of film, to radio explainers, and ending with a television set.

1:57-2:15 I love the change in tune of the song.

Having lived through most of this, I've never struggled with the references. But putting the historical clips with it is just a brilliant move! I'll definitely be sending people here to watch.

This masterpiece should be remaked every two decades !!!

This deserves so much more recognition

Awesome video. I've been singing it for 30 years and consider myself a history buff but still didn't know a few of those. And I always thought it was "color wars" not "cola wars."

Amazing!! Billy Joel, the Orson Welles of rock.

England's got a new queen More like England's got a new king

Great edit. This video should be used in history classes covering the Cold War era.

No way this doesn't blow up one day in the future

This shoud legitmately be the offical music video!

I know this song word from word from listening so much

My sincere and deepest THANKS for doing this thing. I have listened to this tune in the early 90”s and always wondered why some names were significant. NOW I know. Thanx!

Who ever did this video is brilliant! It was much work put in plus the lyrics! Thank you for sharing! Better than the original! 👍🏻

Nicely done!

観られてよかったです！ありがとうございます

Great! Remembers me the times in the Music Hall Hannover

This video is well done and sadly has not so much view which is a shame because it is part of our human history and for education purposes also good.

This is great

Courage to see it and more courage to show it and now Courage to know and more....

Well done! Thank You.

I have to keep pausing the video to read all the captions. Still, I love a video that actually takes everything Billy Joel sang and put it into context.

Great job! I've watched it a few times!

👏👏👏👏👏

holy shiiiiiiit this is amazing !!!!!

Now that Fall Out Boy has coveted this, you should totally recreate this for them 😮 i honestly never knew about this song til AFTER FOB, and this explains a lot of this older version 😮

so much effort put into this - great - needs more views

Thank you for providing insight on everything listed. Great stuff

Sorry, I missed the 80s, because I was born on September 3, 1990 in Manila the Philippines, but I listened to the music about We Didn't Start the Fire performed by Billy Joel which was released in 1989. Before 2020, all of my relatives from Catanduanes and Quezon were arriving at home in Manila while we are speaking in Filipino. On December 24, 2015, that was Christmas Eve of 2015, the day before the Christmas Day of 2015, my aunt Tita Socorro and cousins Ate Marianne with my cousin's husband Kuya Rein, Kuya Igan, Ate Rose Ann with my cousin's husband Kuya Jan Jan, Jayson and Sonny with my nephew Jandy and my niece Mara arrived at home. On December 30, 2019, the day before the New Year's Eve of 2019, my aunt Tita Socorro and cousins Ate Marianne with my cousin's husband Kuya Rein, Kuya Igan with my aunt's daughter-in-law Ate Quenny, Ate Rose Ann with my cousin's husband Kuya Jan Jan, Jayson and Sonny with my nephews Jandy and Sam Roland and my nieces Mara, Jazzi, Lara and Jea arrived at home. On December 23, 2021, two days before the Christmas Day of 2021, my cousins, Ate Bebeng, Ate Marianne, Kuya Igan with my aunt's daughter-in-law Ate Quenny, Jayson and Sonny and my nephews Jandy and Sam Roland and my nieces Mara, Jazzi, Lara and Jea arrived at home, but my aunt, Tita Socorro didn't arrive at home in Manila due to COVID-19 pandemic. On December 30, 2022, the day before the New Year's Eve of 2022, my aunt, Tita Socorro, my cousins, Ate Bebeng, Ate Marianne, Kuya Igan with my aunt's daughter-in-law Ate Quenny, Jayson and Sonny and my nephews Jandy and Sam Roland and my nieces Mara, Lara and Jea arrived at home in Manila from Pandan, Catanduanes and General Nakar, Quezon are currently residing in Sampaloc city district, the capital city Manila and Navotas. On December 31, 2022, New Year's Eve of 2022, my cousins Ate Rose Ann together with my cousin's husband Kuya Jan Jan and my nephew Jandy and my niece Jazzi arrived at home and I would discover my own artificial cards combining fake and true in 2023. On January 21, 2023, my aunt, Tita Socorro, my cousins, Ate Bebeng, Ate Marianne, Jayson and Sonny and my nephews Jandy and Baby Reign and my nieces Mara, Jazzi, Lara and Jea arrived at home for my niece's birthday when Jazzi turned 7. In March 2023, we took our vacation in the province of Catanduanes because my mother's remains in Pandan Cemetery, we didn't find the song by using the Video 5 Videoke Sound System at my aunt's house and the other one at my uncle's house at Barangay Pandan del Norte and the other at Ate Lourdes' house within Tito Erning's territory at Salvacion, Pandan, Catanduanes. During our family reunion in April 2023, I didn't register to perform OPM songs and others. We went to the beach located at Barangay Oga, Pandan, Catanduanes to walk and run then swim. We went to my uncle's new house at St. John Village, Virac, Catanduanes to meet my brother, but I didn't find the song We Didn't Start the Fire performed by Billy Joel on KZfaq together with my uncle Tito Romeo with my uncle's wife Tita Josie and cousins Ringring, RJ, Baby Om and Yani. After three months of our vacation in Catanduanes, we went back to Manila in June 2023, because my sister missed us. The last two months of 2023, I discovered artificial cards combining fake and true. On December 30, 2023, the day before the New Year's Eve of 2023, my aunt, Tita Socorro, my cousins, Ate Bebeng, Ate Marianne, Ate Rose Ann, Jayson and Sonny and my nephews Jandy and Baby Reign and my nieces Mara, Jazzi, Lara, Jea and Baby Jari arrived at home in Manila from Pandan, Catanduanes and General Nakar, Quezon are currently residing in Sampaloc, Manila and Navotas, but my father's sister Tita Sonia didn't arrive at home in Manila because she is one of the members of Jehovah's Witnesses, she has medical problems. I played with my relatives then I turned on that television to find four of my favorite TV channels, others are not and my sister asked me to wait for pizza delivery from Greenwich Pizza Vista Mall Las Piñas. I discovered artificial cards combining fake and true then I discovered 198 flags and I found selected companies listed at the Philippine Stock Exchange such as ABS-CBN Corporation with the 1963, 1967, 1986 and 1996 logos, SM Investments with the 2009 logo and SM Prime Holdings with the 2009 logo. Images of James Lindenburg, Antonio Quirino, Eugenio Lopez Sr., Fernando Lopez, Eugenio Lopez Jr. and Henry Sy. Before 2020, in Metro Manila, studios at ABS-CBN Compound such as ABS-CBN Corporation's radio stations DZMM-AM and DWRR-FM and television stations DWWX-TV and DWAC-TV and DWWX-TV DTV 16, there were 24 SM Supermalls branches, 3 SM Store branches, SM Supermarket branches, SM Hypermarket branches, Savemore Market branches under SM Markets were built, the past station ID's of ABS-CBN and 198 flags; under United Nations; 193 member states, 2 observer states, 3 recognized states, 54 dependencies and territories and 9 unrecognized states and other competitors of the United Nations and I took noise barrage.

Great video

Amazing, thanks so much!

💖🙃

👍

"Bridge On The River Kwai" was a film from 1957 based on a novel, not an actual bridge.

Genial 🌟

i thought catcher in the rye was talking about john but i realized it wouldnt make sense timeline wise

The song starts in 1949 for another specific reason. Name that reason, and good luck.

I love this.

Just to be honest I thought that disney land accident in 1974 when he said “Disneyland” If you don’t know hat that is search up Deborah Gail stones death or Disneyland Accident 1974

Well done.

When my granddaughter starts complaining about the would i would play this video.

Das hast du gut gemacht!!!!

this is amazing

If you know the names and places and events you lived it or you knew about it .

My whole world history class burst out laughing when the JFK blown away bit happened. IDK why, but in the moment it was funny.

Awesome vid. I especially like the time line . Could you do this for the fallout boy and pandemic covers?

Rockefeller refers not to Winthrop but Nelson

🐩🫂🐕 🐕🫂🐩

I've also made a video for Fall Out Boy's version. Check it out here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a96ektyDnMfKnWQ.html

Mason why did you do it @3:09

There is an update from a different artist.

Russian of Afghanistan!!!

3:38 always thought this said “rock and roll and cold wars”

How about a couple of shots of VN

That's not funny when JFK was murdered the school sent us home and my mom was crying in front of the T.V. I was in the first grade in Miami Florida.

Really Billy? Coke vs Pepsi, that's your breaking point?
