Love that he keeps correcting howard when he says he hates the song

[marceror]

"If someone mouths the wrong words I'm screwed" is perhaps one of the funniest admissions from a musical icon I've ever heard! :P

[calvee]

I LOVE the fact that he recognizes this song has very little melody. I agree. It's a snoozer music wise.

[kathleendestefano]

A musical icon he is, such real people ❤❤❤

Well, working too hard can give you a heart att-ack-ack-ack-ack. 💔

Challenge accepted! Im close to the stage for an MSG show in December. Let’s see if I can mess Billy up!! 😂

I can't say I'm a huge Joel fan, but I do love The Downeaster Alexa. That's a fantastic song that I can always listen to. Most of his other songs....I've heard them so many times I really can't enjoy them personally.

Billy Joel is one of the greatest showmen ever.

[Narrate]

I used to play that song over and over on my Sony Walkman in 89-90

[KlingonGamerYT]

sent me a nice autograph when i wrote to him saying scenes from an italian restaurant was my fav song class

[TheSickNeeds]

I wonder how many times he started to sing Its the End of The World as we know it by REM instead.

[joshs]

Howard Stern and Billy Joel. Two Long Island icons.

[Ironcorgi]

I love how technical his criticisms is of his music are. That’s a brilliant talent

[juanelorriaga]

I recall him saying he hated performing “Keeping The Faith” as well

Me: Realizing Billie Joel's least favorite song of his is my favorite song of all time.

[FatimaSorianoOfficial]

This song always gets me rockin'. I loved all the references.

[justingutube]

song is great, it brings me back to a particular time and if I need to go there I play it...and I save it

[JK-brmu]

JFK. Blown away. What else do I have to say.

[slshusker]

Great tune. Think of it as an REM tune.

[Christopher-mdtf]

I love that song. There's more to music than just melody.
