Brilliant performance. From both. Hard to believe. Even if this gets all the attention in the world, it would still be underrated.

Eh, not really. He’s trying to prove he’s a better piano player than The Piano Man, but I don’t think his flourishes and whatnot add to the song at all. Gazarek is offering a pretty stripped down performance, while the piano player is trying wayyyyyy too hard. Doesn’t fit at all.

This song has been one of my personal favs for over 20 years, and this is by far the best arrangement/rendition of this deeply personal statement I have heard (...and I've heard hundreds of different singers' versions). The original was written with block chords...locking the singer into the phrasing of the chords, but the message of a heart aching to be open to love is amplified by the freedom of more open phrasing. Although one of Billy's best songs can stand on its own, Sara's pure voice and outstanding phrasing...combined with Josh's spectacularly tasteful support gently invites the listener to one of the soul's most vulnerable places. Kudos..and thank you.

If there is meaning in music, and a connection we are to draw in our lives from the tones and lyrics, this is a fine example of that. Someone knew of Billy Joel's song, and knew he had scribed it, unknowingly, for Sara Gazarek's voice. If there is a soul to be found in music, start here.

The Kings Singers is much more impressive. And as female singers go, Melissa Enricco’s cover is far more emotional and effective.

This has been a great week for an old man. Through Spotify's Discover Weekly playlist that has me figured out to a T, with 30 songs and two hours including opera and classical, it introduced me to both the band Pink Martini and this lovely Sara Gazarek. Folks, it don't get better. Thanks life!

insanely good interpretation of one of Billy Joel's least known but best tracks he created. A lifetime of many emotions he has conjured up in his music and when he was asked why no more music he said I have nothing more to say. Billy was told in the same interview that Elton John said he could have done more albums and Billy quickly quipped back and said Elton could have done fewer. Touche to two kings/legends of rock and roll in my lifetime.

This rendition is my favorite, of this song, and to date, of Sara's works. Her art builds and grows, both solo and in saje'. For me, this is my "Sara carry song", the one I keep with me at work, at home and in the dark days we have all suffered in the past two years. Imagining my life's gifts of loving the women in my life, apart from all of them, .. is captured perfectly in this song. Thanks, Sara. You make me believe in love every time I hear your voice carry this tune. The joy, the sorrow, ... and the private gift that love is to each of us. The remembering is borne out in the music far better than in our minds. Thank you, Sara! Leave this right here for me to visit in my moments of remembering, please. Oh, ... and thank Josh, for me and my mother, the pianist that buried music in my heart late at night when she practiced during her college studies.
@davidedillman46572 жыл бұрын
I believe it is important to always remain grateful. I am, Sarah and Josh. I listen to this when I want to understand my life, and the love I have held and always will, for those whom I have loved, and will, always. It is a gift we willingly give, and which validate our hearts.
