"They're sharing a drink they call loneliness, but it's better than drinking alone." Powerful and profound line!

Billy Joel is an AMAZING song writer. He churned hit after hit and he wrote them himself. Classics! What an artist he is, and always down to earth.

You described the beautiful melancholy of the song perfectly. You can almost SMELL the bar around you, feel the muggy atmosphere, taste the cheap booze. The whole song is just the whole experience of all those people in the bar, living totally different lives but united by that shared feeling of life weighing you down, of something being missing, of needing a break. It’s the community found in a bunch of people who are lonely together.

Fun facts: Billy wrote this song based on his observations when he was playing at The Executive Room, a piano bar in Los Angeles in the early 70s. Billy also played the harmonica on this song.

It’s hard for us older ones to believe you all don’t know how great Billy Joel is. My youngest will be 45 and I have made sure he heard all genres of music and watched all the old music. Same with my 21 yr old granddaughter. She can tell you about the old TV shows and movie and music. I want her to be informed. Her mom is my oldest and she grew up with this music.

Yep, you get it. Billy Joel is not only a virtuoso on piano, but he writes very descriptive story songs and sings them really well. One of a kind artist.

This was our “last call” bar song at a bar we went to in college. We all stood around in a big circle, hooked arms, and belted out this song together. It’s one of my favorite memories. Sal’s on Wednesdays 🥰

It DAVY who's still in the NAVY. So it does rhythm.

You totally missed “they’re sharing a drink they call loneliness but it’s better than drinking alone”. That’s deep bruh.

Well done, sir. You pay attention to not only the music and the lyrics but also explain what your take on it is along the way without any theatrics throw in. It's been a pleasure watching your reaction. Keep up the good work.

Billy Joel is the George Gershwin of this era. His songs really paint a picture and tell a story.

I've been lucky to have been able to see Billy in concert 5 times (in New Zealand). Last December he came back, and I took my daughter who is 28. She has many of his songs on her playlist. I think Billy is around 73 now. Every fan knows that when he plays 'Piano Man', the music will suddenly stop, and he stops singing just as the last chorus comes up, and the crowd takes over and sings the last chorus - just the crowd and no music, until the crowd has finished singing the chorus - it's magic!

This song is about the compilation of people from different walks of life who all have aspirations for something, other than what they’re doing. Thanks for this, one of Billy’s greatest. 👏👏🇨🇦

Man, your smile when he started the chorus was just perfect. I know this song back and forth and sideways, and every time that chorus hits, it still makes me smile. Such a good song, and great reaction!

When I was a freshman in college about thirty years ago, I was studying for finals with a few classmates in the lobby of my dorm. There were about twenty other students doing the same thing. Someone had a radio that was turn low enough that it didn’t bother anyone. Piano Man came on and they turned it up. Everyone in the lobby stopped studying and started singing. When the song was over the guy that had the radio turned it back down and everyone went back to studying. Not a single person complained.

My dad was a piano player, and he played this song once for a small concert. People came up and tipped his jar 😁 One of the last songs I remember him playing before he passed in 2017.

Piano Man was a person who played piano and sang in a piano bar. People would request songs and there was usually a tip glass setting on the piano. You nailed it with Cheers.
