I come from a rich musical background and was raised – in more ways than one – on the likes of Billy Joel. “Billy Joel Kids” have a very special connection with each other, and tend to avoid songs like Pianoman and Uptown Girl. Not to be snobs about it – but more because those two tunes only scratch the surface of one of pop/rock music’s most prolific artists.
I was a bit tipsy the other night and whilst playing some vinyl, I stumbled upon this absolute beaut on YouTube. Check it out – it’s Billy Joel and Ray Charles recording Baby Grand, turned into a music video. Feel free to cry as you watch this. Ray Charles around the 1:32 mark. Come on – it’s too awesome.
