Billy Joel
If it seems like I've been lost in 'lets remember', If it seems I'm gettin' older and missin' my younger days, well you shoulda known me much better, cause the past is something that never got in my way.

Billy Joel
Don't make music for some vast, unseen audience or market or ratings share or even for something as tangible as money. Though it's crucial to make a living, that shouldn't be your inspiration. Do it for yourself.
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.
Billy Joel
I see the winos talking to themselves and I can understand.
Billy Joel
I could walk away from anyone I ever knew, but I can't walk away from you.
Billy Joel
You may never understand How the stranger is inspired For he is not always evil, And he is not always wrong.
Billy Joel
Artist - musicians, painters, writers, poets, always seem to have had the most accurate perception of what is really going on around them, not the official version or the popular perception of contemporary life.
Billy Joel
I've played all kinds of places, laid all kinds of girls.
