One of the best American artist ever. You may be right, always a woman, tell her about it, piano man, just the way you are, scenes from Italian restaurant, she’s got a way, big shot.. etc…..

This song came out in 1980 when "New Wave" music started to take off. I think the song's meaning was looking at how fast music changed back then and got categorised into "Genres" by the media. It made music kind of Tribal back then, but Billy's message was: It's still Rock n Roll to me. In other words, stop fighting with each other and just listen to the god damn music ;)

Recorded a couple of years after the explosion that was punk! I think during the late 70's a lot of established artists thought it was "game over" for them. I always thought this song just Billy saying new wave, punk, dance music are all at the end of the day just Rock n roll and there is room for all these genres and more will come and go.

Rock-N-Roll is NOT a "thing", it is an "ATTITUDE". It doesn't matter what version of rock-n-roll you are into... as long as you still have that 'youthful rebellion" side, you still have the right attitude to enjoy the music that "gets to you and gets you going".

Thanks for using a posting of the song showing the lyrics! never knew Billy referenced the Beau Brummels (a 1960s band) in the lyrics. Glass Houses is my favorite Billy Joel album. Think he was trying to increase his fan base, by releasing an album that had songs with a harder edge (more rockers). Before this, he was known mostly for his ballads.

@dagmar.6954 2 жыл бұрын

Billy Joel is such a great singer-songwriter from the 70's-90's. He is one of the best-selling music artists of all time. My favorite album is "The Stranger" album. All the songs are great including "Just The Way You Are", "Movin' Out (Anthony's Song)", "Only The Good Die Young", "She's Always A Woman", "Vienna", "Scenes From An Italian Restaurant" etc. Also like "An Innocent Man" album. Lots of great songs on it such as "Tell Her About It", "The Longest Time", "Leave A Tender Moment Alone", "Keeping The Faith", "This Night", "Uptown Girl" etc.

Used to listen to this on cassette in the 90's. He has many hits including "Pressure" which you both may like. I didn't know what a Beau Brummel was: a typical or extreme dandy and a man's dressing table of 18th century design with an adjustable mirror, side leaves, and many small drawers or compartments

@seanscanlon9067 2 жыл бұрын

Not trying to be a dick here but that dressing table must have been named after Beau Brummel, who was an actual real person from Regency England in the 1700s, and was a bit of a fancy Dan fashion icon of his day. I suppose it would be similar to referring to someone contemporary in a song as a bit of a Casanova.
