A true genius, generations of fans

Critics seem either out of touch with reality, or simply ignorant of the genius of Billy. I became a fan in the early 80's as a young teenager. His music hits with the same power now as it did then. His lyrics pull no punches and as with any true genius, critics don't understand it. His albums speak to us, our kids, our grandchildren and so on. Few to almost no other singer/songwriter/composer can claim this. His songs carry emotion, pain, happiness, triumph and all of the true emotions we all carry. Every album evolves, trying new things and lyrics that carry that true feeling(s). To this day, (after almost 50 years) he can sell out a concert in hours. A critic who complains his music is not genius is nothing more than hack, with an agenda. Thank you Billy for carrying our feelings in your music for so many years.

This may be his Magnum Opus, a work of pure brilliance. His commentary woven into superb music, rhythm, and singing. One amazing song after another, songs that will live on for the ages and tell a tale of the 1980s. This a must-have for anyone who enjoys Billy Joel.
Which one of you there at Apple screwed up this song?

The song I purchased thru the iTunes store is distorted and splatty. Why did you ruin this song? The pre-recorded cassette of the same album is cleaner, and it was printed in 1982. Don't bother telling me it's my side, because I purchased several songs this evening, and all of the were clear except this one.
Amazing

The Nylon Curtain is a beautiful album with beautiful and moving songs, like Goodnight Saigon. Billy really outdid himself in this album.
Great Album

Probably my favorite Billy Joel album, if not, a VERY close second. It's great sound and lively feel will always be a favorite of mine.
one of his best albums

This is such a great album because it has a large amount of Beatles influence which you cannot find in any other of his albums so i highly suggest to buy this album. by the way check out surprises and scandinavian skies and where is the orchestra? they are awesome!!!
This critic is out of his mind

How does Surprises, Scandinavian Skies, and Where's the Orchestra have lyrical shortcomings? Name three songs with better lyrics. I can't.
