Lyrics:
Bobby's drivin' through the city tonight
Through the lights in a hot new rent-a-car
He joins the lovers in his heavy machine
It's a scene down on Sunset Boulevard
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye to my baby
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye to my baby
Johnny's takin' care of things for a while
And his style is so right for troubadours
They got him sitting with his back to the door
Now he won't be my fast gun anymore
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye my baby
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye my baby

This genius has produced more classic songs than any other artist in the history of music, believe me, I know ALL the greats!.
There are a zillion versions of this song out there, but this is my favorite. I think it's the first one I ever heard, and that's probably why. He's my all-time favorite musician.
He really owns the high notes in this one. I bet he would agree that it's the best.
James Edgar This is the radio cut that was played on stations...
This is my favorite version as well. I'm glad I finally found it on here.
This is classic, best live song u could ask fot
I agree man this is the best version. I love the excitement in his voice and the sound of the crowd
The Energy and passion in this track from my fave album...Peerless...almost 40 years later, it never fails to hit the mark .
The best performance of
"Say Goodbye to Hollywood"
It's’ AMAZING !!😊
When you listen to this loud on a good sound system.. it's one of the best performances EVER.
Life is a series of hello's and goodbye's
I'm afraid it's time for goodbye again :)
So many faces in and out of my life
Some will last, some will just be now and then
My favorite line, too. I've moved more than a dozen times, so this really hits home.
The Best Billy Joel Live track ever.
Ditto
One of the few songs where I prefer the live version over the studio version.
The audience reaction after the sax solo is goosebump-inducing awesome
This song still makes me emotional….30 years after the first time I heard it
A forgotten classic. Billy used to be able to write stuff like this in his sleep; songs about taking a chance, growing up and leaving parts of your life behind. Love this guy.
skydog757 Great thought!
Every track on this live album is killer.
it is
Word !
One of Billy's best
Yes sir!!! Awesome album. Eternal
Best version , first one i heard ! One of the few times a live version sounds better than the studio
Heard this when I was headed back to prison in 1980...said goodbye to Debbie Domigos...I thought she was my true love...gone forever!!! Love This Song!!!
You out yet?
Incredible. I wore this 45 out.
best version ever
Bobby's driving through the city tonight
Through the lights in a hot new rent-a-car
He joins the lover in his heavy machine
It's a scene down on Sunset Boulevard
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye, my baby
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye, my baby
Johnny's taking care of things for awhile
And his style is so right for troubadors
They got him sitting with his back to the door
Now he won't be my fast gun anymore
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye, my baby
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye, my baby
Moving on is a chance that you take every time you try to stay
Together
Say a word out of line and you find that the friends you had are gone
Forever
So many faces in and out of my life
Some will last, some will just be now and then
Life is a series of hello's and goodbye's
I'm afraid it's time for goodbye again
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye, my baby
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye, my baby
Moving on is a chance that you take every time you try to stay
Together
Say a word out of line and you find that the friends you had are gone
Forever
So many faces in and out of my life
Some will last, some will just be now and then
Life is a series of hello's and goodbye's
I'm afraid it's time for goodbye again
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye, my baby
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye, my baby
Probably my favorite Billy Joel song. About the time the live version came out there were some things going on in my life that made me relate to this song.
This one and scenes of an italian restaurant ❤
Saludos desde Perú.
I used to do songs from Mr. Billy Joel, back in the pre millennium days of Karaoke.
THIS TRACK CALLED “SAY GOODBYE TO HOLLYWOOD” ORIGINALLY CAME FROM TURNSTILES, AN ALBUM THAT WASN’t BIG FOR BILLY. HOLLYWOOD HIT THE TOP 40 5 YEARS LATER.

Long Islands own.. So great.
“Say Goodbye to Hollywood” (1976) is a look at the temporary nature of most relationships, as people are coming in and out of our lives. The story is told through the eyes of two characters, Bobby (in the first verse) and Johnny (in the second verse). They do their time in Hollywood, but now find themselves moving on, a natural progression in the series of hellos and goodbyes in life.
Musically, Billy Joel composed this in the style of The Ronettes. He was a big fan of ‘60s girl groups and loved Ronettes’ lead singer Ronnie Spector’s voice. In “Say Goodbye to Hollywood,” he pays homage to her vibrato, emulating it when he utters the word “boulevard.”
Joel explained that he wrote “Say Goodbye to Hollywood” in a high key that was challenging to reach.
The tune was crafted at a time when Joel had recently moved from LA to New York. Like so many Long Islanders, he disliked the West Coast.
Ronnie Spector released her own version in 1977. She stated : “In a way, it’s my life story, ‘cause I was married in Hollywood, I lived in Hollywood, my life fell apart in Hollywood, and now I am saying goodbye to Hollywood.” Spector’s cover was produced by Little Steven Van Zandt, whom she met while working as a backup vocalist for Bruce Springsteen in 1976. For “Say Goodbye,” Springsteen’s E Street Band reciprocally played backup for her. 💙🎶💜
The best sung version
Liberty DeVito. Most underrated drummer ever.
One of the best live albums ever released.
Yes it is
It’s my favorite of all his Albums
BEST version of this song by him or anybody else (Ronnie Specter).....this is Joel at his very best!
WOW. I was trying to figure out which version of this song I would hear and love as a kid growing up. I remembered clapping. So I’ve been looking through and listening to all these live versions. But it was the AUDIO version this WHOLE TIME. Ya bamboozled me, Billy. Lol, my ears can be at peace now.
My favorite version. So, so good.
my fav version also
もう最高だぜ
This is another Very underrated Joel album....not really a weak song on the album.....maybe "You're My Home", MAYBE.
Tribute to Ronnie Specter? Done Billy style....
My favorite version of this song...💯
The Best version
切ない心をグッとこらえて、
力強く歌うビリー・ジョエル、
本当に最高。

Billy Joel - Say Goodbye to Hollywood
大事な意訳部分
Moving on is a chance that you take every time you try to stay Together
ネットじゅう探したけど
ここがしっくり決まってない
だから
さよならハリウッド
君にもさよなら
なんて…なんだかなあな訳までありました
マイベイビーは目に涙をためてるよ
だからガッツリと意訳したんだ
では参りましょう
今宵もボビーは夜の街をドライブ
ピカピカのイカした新車のレンタカーを駆って光の中を駆け抜けて行く
獰猛なマシンの中で恋人と逢瀬さ
サンセットブールバードじゃお馴染みの光景
ハリウッドにさよならを言うんだ
さよならを言いなよ マイベイビー
ハリウッドにさよならを言うんだ
さよならを言いなよ マイベイビー
ジョニーは束の間だけど何くれとなく良くしてくれた
流離いの吟遊詩人にはぴったりだった
だけど最近じゃ彼も風当たりがきついらしい
だからこれ以上厄介はかけられないね
ハリウッドにさよならを言うんだ
さよならを言いなよ マイベイビー
ハリウッドにさよならを言うんだ
さよならを言いなよ マイベイビー
ねぐらを変えて移り住むのは何時だってチャンスなんだ
絆を結び直すためのね
言い方一つ間違えれば
君が大事にしてた友人だって去っていくものさ
ずっと…永遠にね
（ 間奏 ）
ねぐらを変えて移り住むのは何時だってチャンスなんだ
絆を結び直すためのね
言い方一つ間違えれば
君が大事にしてた友人だって去っていくものさ
ずっと…永遠にね
生きて来て出会った顔、去っていった顔
何人かは続いて、何人かは折に触れて合う程度かな
人生はこんにちはとさようならの連続さ
残念だけど、また別れの時みたいだ
ハリウッドにさよならを言うんだ
さよならを言いなよ マイベイビー
ハリウッドにさよならを言うんだ
さよならを言いなよ マイベイビー
Amo questa canzone!!!! La sua musica mi accompagna da sempre......... Grande Billy!!!!😉
Damn!!!!!!! That sax!!!!!!!!!!!
I remember there being a (minor) controversy about this song when it was released in '76.
They said that this "live" version was a FAKE; that is was done in a studio, and that crowd reactions were added.
Does anyone else recall this?
What a powerhouse song what a powerhouse vocal dang
The radio cut recording of the song....Awesome!!! Thanks for posting..
This version of his sounds alot more better.

Songs in the attic ha un posto speciale nel mio cuore....
Genius❤amazing...his music is forever a part of me
Thanks for all the love and support, I hope you never stop.
好きな歌なので聴けてよかったです！ありがとうございます
This performance was from a rehearsal, not an actual concert...
The audience is dubbed over.
Live in Milwaukee.... sorry, wrong.
@@cowetascore8476 The last 38 minutes of the Milwaukee '80 are on YT. "Hollywood" would usually be reserved for towards the end of the show at that point, and it's nowhere to be found on that recording. There are other (confirmed) songs on "Attic" that were from rehearsal, not the actual concerts.
nice arrangement nice 🥁
Billy's vocals during the horn solo remind me of Ronnie Spector lol.
Not a surprise, he said this song was inspired by the Ronettes "Be My Baby." Good ear there, dude.
And the drum part at 3:35 :)
fenomenal la cancion
Billy's band was a real rock band on this album!
Now it's a show band...
Billy is wearing a striped uniform because he wrote this song in prison. He used to sneak out of his cell and write songs on the old piano up in the prison attic.
@@catdog5504 It's a joke.
top song from a great era-top artist too greetings from NZ
che bei ricordi, un salto indietro di oltre trent'anni. che bei tempi !!! è sempre un grande piacere riascoltarla. grazie Billy.
