This has been one of the best tutorials I’ve used off of KZfaq. Your pacing is spot on for someone familiar with the song, but wanting to figure out the chord progressions.

This is the 2nd song I've learned from watching your videos ("My Life" was the other - both difficult songs). You broke this down into manageable sections that I could watch over and over and slowly master. I learned this song because my daughter told me she's pregnant. This is my first grandchild and I want to pass on the gift of music. Thanks for helping make this possible.

I'm 18, and got into BJ's music around a year ago. Now, I own almost all his albums on CD. This song was the song that got me into playing piano/keyboard, and I've self-taught myself the past 8 months. Your videos have been fantastic for me and everyone else. Thank you so much! Plan on playing this to my kids every night before bed someday...

Agreed...you r very thorough and patient

I've watched a lot of tutorials for several songs and this is by far the most detailed. I've had my keyboard in the storage room for a couple years now and have been aching to start playing again. Love this song and love the way you teach. Thanks for giving me that extra boost of motivation!

Ah yes I just started this :D it’s a little slow for me, but I think that will be good for a lot of beginners (and I’m just impatient haha). You can really feel the authenticity, as if you’re sitting next to someone that teaches you! Love it!

Honestly, what a G over here! This is dope and I can't wait until my keyboard finally gets here! :)

One of my favorite songs by Billy Joel. Great tutorial Steve!

Steve, just gotta say you did a fantastic job again, at teaching this, I’ve learned this right up to the end, now its just practice practice practice, Thanks

Thank you for these Steve. Usefull as always

During the coronavirus isolation I am trying to teach myself to play this. Thanks Steve.

Wonderful tutorial! Thank you so much! 🎼🎶🎹❤️‼️

You're the best Steve. Great tutorial!!!

I can’t thank you enough Steve ❤️

Thank you! So helpful I was able to learn it

thanks steve. learning this to play to my daughter before her 7th birthday... you teach very well. getting back into the piano after a long hiatus and guitar... lots of fun!

Hey Steve ! Thanks for this great tutorial ! You're a very good teacher 🙏

Thank you!!

Thank you for this video tutorial - an excellent lesson & love your teaching style, brilliant - great explanation, great repetition to ensure we get the correct notes & phrasing etc - would not have learnt this tune so quickly if not for your video tutorial - great work,, thanks again, regards, Arno

thank you for the amazing tutorial! super helpful, its taken me days, but i like how you split it up so i can focus on one part at a time, and not get too overwhelmed with the complexity lol

My goat got got dude. Thanks for the vid

Steve, while I'm revisiting this tune I totally agree with the majestic and classical feel of Part 4 for sure. But also for old baby boomers like me, you'll recognize 'Paint It Black "by the Stones, (bass line) ...."I see the girls go by dressed in their summer clothes"......think it came out summer of 1966......so happy i was able to invest in those MP4 files of these tunes!!!:-) thanks Bruce

Tus vídeos son increíbles, explicas las escala y qué acordes estás utilizando, y se entiende todo muy bien. ¡Muchas gracias!

I'm only 15:13 into the video as of right now, but I have the first part nailed down and I'm confident I can make it through the rest of it. Thanks for making this wonderful tutorial, and cheers!

Steve, Thank you much for giving such great step by step tutorial that us semi-beginners can learn. Most of the videos I have seen by others assume way too much for the un-accomplished players like me. I was able to learn this in about 3 weeks, though still mess up from time to time. There are enough videos here that I love, that will keep me busy for years. I was wondering if you had a chance, could you do a video on "roll with the changes" by reo speedwagon. I love the piano in that song, but can't find a video slow enough for me to learn it, like you teach it.

@stevelungrin I really appreciate your tutorials, can you make one for This is the Time?

Steve, Figured I would try to see about the volume, yea, its sucks, I've got everything up as high as I can go, and barely can hear it. Luckily I have most of tunes I wanted on the MP4 download, but was so looking forward to many more. What also was good with the MP4 downloads was I didn't need to use the internet!! Was able to work on tunes without opening up my browser!! If the internet went down, no problem, I'm still able to work and learn tunes. You have put a lot of work into these, what a shame you can't compensation. Music business sucked back when I was growing up, and it looks like nothing has changed. I feel for you man, I'll keep you in my prayers, thanks for all you have done!! Bruce

Can you do This is the Time- Billy Joel?

At 44:25. What rhythm is left hand playing for octave notes E and D? What beats are notes falling on, I think its on the and of 2?

I've met Alexa too.

wtf!!! you left out how to the very last few notes!!!!!! I can't watch that fast whyyyyyyyy

so... slow...
