When I meet the girl of my dreams I'm going to tell her about this thread. Tell her everything I feel. I'm going to give her every reason, to accept that this threads for real. I'm going to tell her about it, and all its crazy dreams. 'Gonna let her know I need it, let her know how much it means.

Scenes from an Italian Restaurant would be a popular choice.

Pretty much all of "pop" Billy Joel sucks IMHO. It doesn't help that commercial radio stations play the same tired old songs over and over and over as indicated by your poll choices. I do enjoy early Billy Joel. Two of my favorite CD's are "Turnstiles" and "Streetlife Serenade."

Funny story about "Just The Way You Are." Years ago hubby and I went out to dinner for our wedding anniversary. The restaurant had a band of roving violin players. They found out we were celebrating our anniversary, came to our table and started to play that song. We both hate it and asked them to please stop.

i like most Billy Joel, but I wasn't a fan of whichever album he wrote as an ode to doo-wop music.

Isn't it funny how as a general rule an artist's early work is usually deemed their best?

Lukewarm on Joel, but Moving Out was my favorite.

I like "You're My Home." The reference to Coleridge's Kubla Khan is pretty badass.
