More quotes by Billy Joel
Most people are satisfied with the junk food being sold as music.
Billy Joel
We passed the hash pipe and played our Doors tapes.
Billy Joel
I am no longer afraid of becoming lost, because the journey back always reveals something new, and that is ultimately good for the artist.
Billy Joel
Slow down you're doing fine You can't be everything you want to be Before your time Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight Too bad but it's the life you lead You're so ahead of yourself That you forfeit what you need Though you can see when you're wrong
Billy Joel
My daughter sent me on a mission to get as many autographs as possible.
Billy Joel
People in music lie, but they don't expect you to believe them. People in television actually expect you to believe the lies.
Billy Joel
When I was 19, I made my first good week's pay as a club musician. It was enough money for me to quit my job at the factory and still pay the rent and buy some food. I freaked.
Billy Joel
Slow down you're doing fine You can't be everything you want to be before your time.
Billy Joel
I've always said about 50% of what happens at a concert has to do with the audience. If you play for a dead audience you're gonna stink. If we play for a great crowd we're much better. You want 'em to make noise. It's kinda like sex, if they don't make noise, you ain't doin' it right.
Billy Joel
Move to California - my first impression of the Wild West.
Billy Joel
I definitely prefer being a lover than a fighter.
Billy Joel
I won't be righteous again. I'm not sure anymore.
Billy Joel
You've given me the best of you, but now I need the rest of you.
Billy Joel
Though you can see when you're wrong, you know you can't always see when you're right.
Billy Joel
Call you up in the middle of the night. It's awful hard trying to make love long distance, but I really need stimulation.
Billy Joel
Someday we'll all be gone, but lullabies go on and on / They never die, that's how you and I will be
Billy Joel
You can walk away from your mistakes You can turn your back on what you do Just a little smile is all it takes And you can have your cake and eat it too. Loneliness will get to you somehow But ev'rybody loves you now.
Billy Joel
There was only really one accident that was kinda bad but it was nothing to do with booze, just bad luck... I was having a hard time a couple of years ago... I'm a good driver, I just had bad luck.
Billy Joel
I did write a letter to the archdiocese who'd banned the song, Only the Good Die Young, asking them to ban my next record.
Billy Joel
Musicians know all about unemployment. You're unemployed a lot, and I think there's a great deal of empathy between musicians and people who are out of work.
