The thing is there are just so many great songs that mean so much to us in different ways. My favourite five change regularly 😂

I remember taking a taxi in Gumi, South Korea when "Uptown Girl" came on the radio. The taxi driver, like many Koreans, was a fan of the song and asked me, "What 'Uptown'?" Using my limited Korean, I attempted to translate, "um… buja dongnae" (rich neighborhood). The taxi driver pointed out the window to the ritzy area near Gumi City Hall where there are a lot of high class restaurants, pubs, expensive apartments, fancy cars and where civil servants go to eat and chit chat… "This… 'Uptown'". He was correct. Thank you, Billy Joel for writing so many songs loved by people around the world, as well as an opportunity for an impromptu mini- English lesson.

Looks like my English teacher

"You May Be Right" is one of my very first "favorite songs" ever. I bought the 7" when I was still in elementary school. Love that it made his list.

@thechickenduck8377 April 9, 2024 - 6:20 pm

“I’ve loved these days” is my #1 from him

@suzannadannaTARDIS April 9, 2024 - 6:20 pm

Replace 'You May be Right' with 'C'etait Toi," then replace "She's Right on Time" with 'Scandanavian Skies' and that my list.
5. Vienna
4. And So it Goes
3. C'etait Toi
2. Scandanvian Skies
1. Scenes From an Italian Restaurant.

He IS The Entertainer!

@MrNihilist74 April 9, 2024 - 6:20 pm

He is smart. He wrote some all time great songs that he could never come close to if he tried to write newer stuff.

@Mike20216 April 9, 2024 - 6:20 pm

Scenes from an Italian restaurant has always been my favorite show my favorite song. Glad he thinks the same

@janetives5470 April 9, 2024 - 6:20 pm

Fantastic

@awm8221 April 9, 2024 - 6:20 pm

I realise it's Billy's personal choices, but 'You may be right ' is not a great song, nor is 'She's right on time'. Billy was put on the spot here. There are many better songs eg. New York State of Mind, You're my home, Big Man on Mulberry Street, Angry Young Man, Say Goodbye to Hollywood, Allentown.

@mrcinemagrouppy April 9, 2024 - 6:20 pm

Uptown girl love how he channels Frankie valley voc

@peterbernhard7415 April 9, 2024 - 6:20 pm

A host take-over of the talk-show could happen, it would be friendly, as in the case of Harry Styles.

@Wisdom122 April 9, 2024 - 6:20 pm

'The Stranger' is for sure my favorite song by Billy Joel

@1401minstrel April 9, 2024 - 6:20 pm

As someone who used to sing and play in bars, Piano Man is my anthem.

@johnsullivan5898 April 9, 2024 - 6:20 pm

All for Leyna

@schwaboy April 9, 2024 - 6:20 pm

My favorite Billy Joel song is definitely The Downeaster Alexa

@davidr4523 April 9, 2024 - 6:20 pm

Life is wonderful when a guy who looks like Billy Joel, and even in his youth he was never good looking, can get super models like Christie Brinkley and Elle Macpherson fighting for his love.
