Billy Joel Lyrics

    ------ About the song The Downeaster "Alexa" performed by Billy Joel

I stumbled on this gem while watching Hangerover 2 also! However, I am reading The Perfect Storm by Sabastian Junger. A fantastic book, made into a movie of course, that does a superb job of giving orientation and history of this area and difficulties of life in the fishing industry.

    ------ About the song She's Always A Woman performed by Billy Joel

I dated a girl for 8 years. She left me for somebody else without a 2nd thought. This happened recently. I never heard about this song,but one of my friends sent me the name and I decided to check it out. I couldn't figure out how I felt about her,ofcourse angry and upset and all the common feelings associated with this type of situation. This song though,it fits my emotions toward her like it was tailor made. I like how he says that no matter how much she makes you suffer,you will always love her no matter what. He says that you cannot stop loving someone if you truly loved them to begin with. He says that even though she put you through hell and back,you still love her and you don't see all her flaws. To you she is perfect,even though she hurts you. This song is not about women,or a woman. This song is about how he sees HIS woman,the one that hurt him and inspired this song. I don't know this for a fact,this is the first time I ever heard about Billy Joel,but I'm pretty sure. Don't take my word for it though,google it. I am 18 years old,and this song really helped me understand my emotions

    ------ About the song The Stranger performed by Billy Joel

this song is about dark sexual desires that most people keep hidden deep in their closets... like BDSM, being gay, cross dressing, etc. "Some are satin some are steel, some are silk and some are leather" certainly paints a picture. Great tune!

    ------ About the song The Downeaster "Alexa" performed by Billy Joel

Anyone who gets this upset over the lyrics of a song needs some anger management. Let the lyrics mean what the listener wants to imagine. And stop bashing people's view of the song...you know who you are.

    ------ About the song The Stranger performed by Billy Joel

I recently learned about MBTI typology and cognitive functions. The second I found out what a shadow function is (which the internet does an unfortunately bad job of explaining) I immediately remembered this song. Great song, by the way.

    ------ About the song Souvenir performed by Billy Joel

a sweetly sad song about life at the end, my , yours, everybody´s
you will be left with souvenirs in the end whatever your life has been. I almost\ cried when I first heard this song because it is so true especially for people like me who are no longer young

    ------ About the song The Downeaster "Alexa" performed by Billy Joel

I am ashamed to admit how I discovered this gem. My son made me watch hangover 2. This song came on. I instantly loved it. I used Shazam to uncover if title.

I love the energy and pride in the melody. It just flies or more appropriately sails. The lyrics are another brilliant piece from Billy Joel. Like several of his work it tells a vivid tale.

    ------ About the song Lullabye (Goodnight My Angel) performed by Billy Joel

The lyrics of this lullabye take over me. Every time I hear them brings me an amazing feeling of joy as well of pain. This song revives everything I want the men of my life to know what he is to me, that I will always love him. Sadly him and I can't be together. We have been fighting against destiny for a long time. It breaks my heart that I Love Him So Much as He Loves Me, and every time we come close something breaks us apart. It's painful to let go. He will always have a part of me as I will always have a part of him. I Love You Jeffrey A.E.M.
