What's a matter with the car I'm driving? "Can't you tell that it's out of style?" Should I get a set of white wall tires? "Are you gonna cruise the Miracle Mile?"

Of all of the indignities that Jews have faced throughout history, the fact that people don’t love Billy Joel cuts the deepest.

Nowadays you can’t be too sentimental

Your best bet’s a true, baby blue, Continental

So you decide to take a holiday
You got your tape deck and your brand new Chevrolet
Ah, there ain’t no place to go anyway
What for?

BILLY JOEL IS THE BEST!

I drive my wife nuts with him too because of how much I like him. Every where we go, stores, restaurants, etc we always hear him and I never miss pointing out a song. First CD I ever owned was Glass Houses.

He’s tradin’ in his Chevy for a Cadilac-ac-ac-ac-ac

You oughta know by now

(You oughta know by now)

If you can’t drive with a broken back

At least you can polish the fenders

For someone thought of as being lame, he has so many great car lyrics

I remember being young and thinking this was so profound.

Still don’t think pink socks and orange pants really work together though.

You could really be a Beau Brummell baby, if you just gave it half a chance.

Bizarrely, yes

Full of the sound of the Gran Fury, signifying nothing. > Honeybunchesofgoats 07/11/2017 at 21:35

When I was a kid I was digging through my parent’s record collection so I could play one of my old favorites, “Me and Mrs. Jones”. Well, I knew it was Billy something. I didn’t find that Billy Paul album, at least not right away, but I did stumble on to some Billy Joel albums and enjoyed the hell out of them. 40 years later I’m still a fan...

#TheLincolnMotorCompany really missed a trick not making that a curated color option on the new crafted #Continental by #TheLincolnMotorCompany

Clearly they’re too sentimental. But they have Jade, so it’s okay

Jesus fucking christ people *like* Billy Joel? Holy fucking shit he’s the goddamned worst. I’ve actually bullied him in person before (bumped into him harder than needed on the street in NY and made him drop his coffee, played it off as an accident). When I was a kid I drew a cartoon of me shooting him in the throat with him going “ack-ack-ack” and the teacher high fived me.

Your name checks out. A coworker of mine once said “you get Billy Joel, but we get Bruce Springsteen.”

That cut very deeply.

That said, I once bumped into Larry David, literally. We both said sorry in a very passive aggressive Jewish way.

I saw that motherfucker walking his goddamn pug and holding a Starbucks cup near the Javitz center, looked at my dad, and said “his coffee is going on the floor.” And it did.

Billy Joel is like Madona for me, a guilty pleasure. I’m not buying the music but I’m not changing the station either. Shit I might even tap the steering wheel a little.

Even if it is Crust Folk Punk it is still rock and roll to me.

“Ate an awful lot of late night drive-in food
Drank a lot of take-home paaaay
I thought I was the Duke of Earl
When I made it with a red-haired girl
In the Chev-o-rolaaaay
Oh yeah
We were keeping the faith”

I love Billy Joel.

Billy Joel is terrible and the fact that so many people like him is utterly inconceivable to me.
