BJ is a drunk who writes crappy boring ersatz music. Elton John can write better songs, and he's tremendously gay. BJ should stick to his groundbreaking work on Wahlund Effect on breeding populations.

BJ is a longislander who can GET AWAY WITH MURDER. I am so jealous, it's not even funny. Imagine; being able to break the law, and then when the cops show up, they help you cover it up!!!

Gee what's up with all the Billy Joel hate?

sepuku2 Gee what's up with all the Billy Joel hate?

It's Alexa, she has her reasons.

What?

What's the word for someone who enjoys reading about Billy Joel?

Oh, that's right. LOSER.

I just think he sucks. Whatever you call his style - "showtune rock?" - I just can't stand it. It annoys like a Broadway musical.

sepuku2:

Gee what's up with all the Billy Joel hate?

Because he's Ted Kennedy with out the Political ties.

Is this going to turn into an evolution thread?

Maybe so, but he would not leave you in times of trouble.

I lol'd at headline

taking a day off?

/Obligatory!

What's the word for someone who comes into a thread on a person/subject they despise simply to make a stupid comment?

Oh, yeah -- DICK.

sepuku2: Gee what's up with all the Billy Joel hate?

Creationists tend to be angry and bitter towards those who support evolution.

Thank you. My first mainpage green I think. Maybe I had one before.

Did she grow up a hottie? I remember thinking it could go either way with parents like that.

MmmBadEggs: I just think he sucks. Whatever you call his style - "showtune rock?" - I just can't stand it. It annoys like a Broadway musical.

More like "Mediocre Lounge".

/My NY friends in college called him "Billy the Yid".

All you big shot haters put away your literary stiletto and back off about a half a mile away

only the good die young indeed

Oh, yeah -- DICK FARKER.


FTFY

/Otherwise there would be no God-bashing here at all.

Billy Joel is not my driver
he's just a guy who claims that he can drive
but he can't, his volvo, it's been impounded
hee hee! Wooo!

They're tearing down Shea Stadium? MLB should have had an All-Star game there to commemorate it!

I broke up with a girl because she liked Billy Joel.

Well she smells like a goat
but she's always a woman to me.

PC LOAD LETTER: Elton John can write better songs, and he's tremendously gay.

If you've said one, you've pretty much said the other.

/Kidding.

Who?

Cuban guerilla leader Shea Stadium

I'm not following ya subby...

What does this mean?

Subby:



That is all.

ARGH!! I HATE BILLY JOEL!!!! Because... um... JUST BECAUSE!!!

I wondered that myself:



Dayum.

Give the guy a break. From what I understand, he may be crazy.

Vici:

Yeah, but she has his bug-eyes. Regardless, if she has half her mother's body, bring a paper bag and you're set.

For the record: Billy Joel did not start the fire.

I repeat, he did not start the fire

/it was always burnin

BJ comes to Hartford every year, plays a few absurdly over priced shows, then adds a few more because people can't get enough. The best part is he plays very similar set lists each time, and the same people go to the shows... can't blame BJ for it, its free money.

This sounds like it would have been a great show. I owned Glass Houses when it first came out (on vinyl).
Let's see Tony muddafuggin Bennett sing with Butt Trumpet, or whatever you whipper snapers are listening to on your iPod players. You know what? It's not going to happen.

/You kids get off my lawn, or I'll get Billy Joel to run you over, and beat the rap.

It is a reference to The Rutles (new window - reference at 1:19).

I love that song list of nostalgic baby boomer events.

Not a huge BJ fan, but "Movin' Out" is still something that I will turn up when I hear it. Plus it sounds like he put on one helluva show. All the hate in here is a little ridiculous for commenting on this article.

Hey everyone, it's celebrity intoxicated driving enthusiast Billy Joel!




'Hi kids! I'm Billy Joel. You might remember me for such songs as "Piano Man" and "Allentown," and such car accidents as Long Island Tree and A House. Those were pretty good times, but I'll tell you what isn't good times: signaling when driving drunk. Remember never to signal any lane changes (it shows other drivers you are weak) and under no circumstances should you obey stop signs (they take away your power).

Huh? Where in the f**k am I? What did I just... why is my car in a building? So much smoke... Is this an orphanage? I hear crying. I'm just... just going to sleep this off for a spell. Could someone call my lawyer?'

Isn't that what most popular bands/performers do?

PC LOAD LETTER

You mean Elton can sing the songs other people have written.

Elton is a great entertainer, but Bernie Taupin was the real man behind the lyrics.

buenohead: Give the guy a break. From what I understand, he may be crazy.

But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for.

/Billy Joel rocks.

i don't mind you guys knocking his music if you don't like it

but farkers knocking someone with a drinking problem?

glass houses a turn for the worse album and where you guys live

docwizz: but farkers knocking someone with a drinking problem?

Oh noooess!!! Farkers are insensitive to others' problems!!

ultraholland

That was a very good reference to an obscure joke, subby.
