Hello. I'm Gail Nobles on the
Catfar. Today's topic is Billy Joel.

2
00:00:06.679 --> 00:00:11.400
He is a singer, pianist,
and songwriter. I love his music.

3
00:00:12.279 --> 00:00:19.600
Joel is commonly nicknamed the Piano Man
after his signature nineteen seventy three songs of

4
00:00:19.719 --> 00:00:26.879
the same name. Joel has had
a successful music career as a solo artist

5
00:00:26.960 --> 00:00:33.759
throughout the nineteen seventies and eighties.
My favorite song by Billy Joel is tell

6
00:00:33.880 --> 00:00:40.320
her About It. Tell her about
it. Tell her everything you feel,

7
00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:49.079
give her every reason to accept that
you're free. Tell her about it,

8
00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:55.560
tell her all your crazy dreams.
Let her know you need her, let

9
00:00:55.560 --> 00:01:02.600
her know how much she means.
The song Tell Her About It is written

10
00:01:02.600 --> 00:01:07.959
and performed by Billy Joel, released
as a single from his album An Innocent

11
00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:14.200
Man in nineteen eighty three. The
song hit the number one spot on the

12
00:01:14.319 --> 00:01:21.840
Billboard Hot one hundred chart for one
week on September twenty fourth, nineteen eighty

13
00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:29.959
three, replacing Maniac by Michael Sembello. The single was certified Gold by the

14
00:01:30.239 --> 00:01:38.079
r i AA for US sales over
five hundred thousand copies. There was also

15
00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:42.640
a video for the song I loved
the Way Billy Joel was performing on the

16
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:51.040
stage as the crowd moved from side
to side. Billy Joel is currently touring

17
00:01:51.480 --> 00:01:57.599
and has upcoming concerts. To find
