It's Still Rock And Roll To Me Lyrics
Billy Joel is such a talented artist and makes some great comments about society in this song. What I got from the song is that, no matter if its pop, funk, punk, grunge, new wave, emo, or any other type of rock, it all goes back to the roots of Rock and Roll. Also, in the same sense, no matter what is popular, it will always have the same influence on the people, with the current trends.
Weird Al wrote a parody to this song called "It's Still Billy Joel To Me", but Billy Joel and Christee Brinkley (who were together at the time) hated it, and it was never released on cd...but anyway, I love this song
The song has a lot of sarcasm directed at people obsessed with being in style, knowing the latest trends, and having the newest stuff.
Billy Joel is essentially saying that in the end, it's all about the music, not about being cool and current.
joking eh..... not funny..... well like i said i am a #1 ozzy fan along with alice in chains rob zombie acdc guns n roses metallica velvet revolver (gnr is better tho) van halen nirvana trapt etc etc etc well i just remember a time when someone was rocking back in their stool at MY house and fell str8 backwards and banged there head it was u phalupe so im not the one that was dropped and i remember we were like 4 and i remember we were eating fig newtons lol so u were the one that fell...... jp but its true tho
Couldn't you guys have emailed each other instead of wasting the space on this board?
Two retards took over this comment page... They should be baninnated! (Or at least delete their divel.)
Duh, be your own person.
billy got a lot of flac over this song, one critic said it was the worst rock tribute song ever written, i think it's very ironic and funny
Really, some people just seem sort of dense. Howcome few people understand the fact that it's a parody?
The only weak thing about this song is that the record version doesn't really get me going. Hearing it live is MUCH better.
LOL....ok then...i think i know who got dropped on their head when they were a baby...i'm joking...but anyway...billy joel music is awesome!!!!!!!
