Billy Joel - Rosalind's Eyes (Audio)

[@Joelster-og4pf]

One of Billy Joel’s many underrated and best songs from one of his best albums. Any other great Billy Joel fans out there agree with me?

[@RicardoRivadeneira-be1oq]

Totally, one of my very favorites from Billy Joel.

[@olivermoriarty1603]

Agreed! 👌🎶

[@Michael-c8o7k]

Oh yes

[@chetpogostin34]

Absolutely. As far as pianist/composers go, it's Billy Joel, Elton John, and Bruce Hornsby. Any order you like.

[@GR4AAAAHHH]

this is his best album, and this is probably his 2nd best song from this album. the best being stiletto ofc

[@Gioma771]

This is one of Billy's best songs. Very underrated.

[@willritter4076]

and probably his most emotionally moving song once you know the background of it... I'd be honored if some Billy Joel fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of his classic compositions ALLENTOWN and VIENNA on my channel in tribute to the master. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Thanks and peace.

I am a mirror of what you just posted; I couldn't agree with you more. I bought this album in Oct. of 78 when I was fourteen years old and have loved it ever since. Glass Houses was his next album after this, and it is also a perennial favorite of mine.

This is probably one the best of his songs in my opinion.

[@funktownwhirl2623]

"I can always find my cuban skies, in Rosalinda's eyes." What a brilliant quote. He refers to the 1940's for this. When the war began, many were wanting to flee Europe, having their dream destination as the United States. To get there they needed to come through Cuba. The Cuban skies in this quote represents freedom, so every time he looks into his mums eyes, he sees freedom, because when the fleers reached Cuba, they saw freedom.

[@georgeevangel2616]

I didn't know that. Thanks for the history. I love that about music--how it can keep pieces of history to tell big stories even when the song isn't about that 'thing.'

[@DustinSmith796]

funktownwhirl didn’t his parents also escape Germany at the time?

[@MarkB0711]

Great comment- I've loved this song for many years but hadn't ever put the meaning together. It's a shame since my mother was named Rose, was born in Cuba after her parents left Eastern Europe in the early 20th century. they all came to the United States in the 1940s.

[@christlopherbrandimarte4520]

I was in high school when this song was released, and I had no idea that Billy was referring to his mother. Brilliant. Simple yet Brilliant. Music and painting are the two greatest forms of expressionism. One is by brush to canvas, another...is lyric to song.

The composition of this track is just perfect. Interesting chord progressions, hynoptic drum beat, an array of well crafted instruments, wonderful vocal delivery, and fantastic personal lyrics that all can relate to.

Rest In Peace to my sister Beverly who introduced me to Billy Joel as small kids in NC Atlantic City NJ. There was no black radio there in the early 70’s and it opened my musical pallet up to the extreme. I enjoyed this album ever since she got it in the mail for a penny with Columbia’s Clearing House. 11 albums for a penny. 🤣 I enjoyed him, Barry Manilow, The Bee Gees, Manfred Mann, Starlight Vocal Band, Chicago, 10cc, Boston, Pablo Cruise, Atlanta Rhythm Section, Steely Dan, England Dan and John Ford Cooley, Blue Oyster Cult and all the blue eyed soul you could think of. What a life. Thank you Beverly!! Thanks for Billy Joel. 🖤

I'm so disappointed it took me until my 55th year on the planet to hear this song for the first time. Now I'm 56 and I've heard it a thousand times. What swagger and confidence as a songwriter! I can just tell Billy knew he was nailing it, was on a killer roll, whatever. These chord changes are so amazing, when the intro arpeggios go into the verses I collapse. Almost too cool and beautiful.

[@nikispenceley3671]
