He honestly sounds exactly like the original if not better. Truly one of the greatest musicians of all time.

I was THERE in Rome, Italy when Billy Joel performed near the Colosseum. I did a Colosseum tour earlier that day. And we were rushed because they were getting ready for Billy Joel concert. He was rehearsing before the concert event took place. So, of course, we stayed for the BIlly Joel concert since we were already there. It seemed all of Rome was there. It was like full circle. Because when I was a young girl, I had to perform to "Uptown Girl" for stage dance recital in front of many. :-)

Pucha que nivel el de Billy, el mismo registro, el mismo tono. La misma pasión para cantar. Men esta rola me trae muchos recuerdos, unos alegres otros tristes. Para esos años yo viviá en el Barrio Casamata de Tegucigalpa. Estaba enamorada de mi una chica de billete pero solo era una emoción. Yo le llevava como 8 años mas. Wow que recuerdos. Mi mamá, obvio quería que me quedara con ella, pero solo era una emoción de niña.... que chasco jijijijijiji

I saw the vid of the fast-paced performance of the song at Wembley in 1984. Personally I like this one the best. He's not as rushed or zany. He's more in control, relaxed. He's CLIMBED the mountain so why overtax himself? Great job, Billy!

Not that you're wrong, but I don't think you could call Sammy Hagar or Dave Lee Roth 'contemporaries' of Billy- leaving aside the whole genre thing, Piano Man was out in 1973, a good 10 years before anyone cared who those guys were. Like you say, Billy's done a good job of taking care of his voice, and songs as good as this don't age at all.

@newarrior3000 Yeah he's really into swing just by the beats of the drum being on 2 and 4 (band geek, you wouldn't understand unless you were one ;) ) although I don't like the change in key in this one. Clearly he can't go as high.. lol. Age has cought up a little.

Billy can still sing this in the original key (he did so with Olivia Rodrigo in 2022, when he was 73), though it's probably difficult for him to do so at an older age.

eventually he had to bring it down a semitone, it's too high for him at his age. maybe he should have written the original in D.

I think it's definitely difficult for him to sing in the original key, but he still can. Here's Billy performing Uptown Girl with Olivia Rodrigo in August 2022. They sang in the original chord because the lower chord is too low for Olivia kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJ7Zgot-pKiieq8

That's probably because Westlife is too much like Big Time Rush. Plus, this is a Billy Joel original. He can't mess it up, Westlife, on the other hand, can because it's not actually their song.
