I thought that translator was like a 1984 version of him.
Translator is his step brother.
It's his younger half-brother!
The real answer is that there ARE no wrong notes and/or if it really is wrong then you can just correct it by hitting the correct note right after it, then the "mistake" just became a passing tone
Lords of 52nd street are part of your history. Id go see them again n again, much cheaper too. They play your music flawless like the record. Amazing peole too.
BJ is amazing Comedian musician. and song writer
this q&a was doubtless after he wrote the song 'You're Only Human'. I was immediately reminded of it when he talked about mistakes being our only original things. The lines I was reminded of were "You're not the only one who's made mistakes
But they're the only thing that you can truly call your own".
Billy had a band from '76 to the mid 80s that rivalled E Street, Silver Bullet, Heartbreakers...anyone. Now he just has hired guys who play like hired guys
He still has Mark Rivera and people like Crystal Taliefero and Mike DelGuidice are great.
@thelevisullivan Rivera is great too and a near perfect replacement for Cannata. Not saying the people he plays with now aren't great at what they do but it's sorta (for me) when Bruce ditched E Street in the 90s for the "Other Band". There's just a vibe, groove and feel that's missing. I mean could he write an album like 52nd Street today? Possibly, probably. But it wouldn't sound like 52nd Street
BJ is simply, brilliant!! I'm an unconditional fan, forever!
Yea it's true, also the Beatles left some mistakes in their songs and it makes so original. Love it
What was that voice crack at the start?
Abeja1225 I think he was goofing around
That guy's "test, test" was hilarious
It's kind of eerie watching this knowing that Doug Stegmeyer killed himself two months later
Wish Billy would've addressed why he'd let Stegmeyer and Javors go. Whenever he does bring up either of those two (which is rare), he always paints it like they left on their own accord.
love the stan getz (arguably the greatest sax man ever) quote - I have to remember that next time I screw up
5:23 I live by this every time I play on stage. If I screw up, I do it again sometimes so people think I meant to do it.
Guys a Genius.
03:28 : )
Was the guy who asked the question Dr mix
Where is the concert part? I can't find it.
Legend!
He almost sounds a little like Gene Simmons
I’m Bff’s with his saxophone player Richie Canada
Great commentary dripping with wit, humor and wisdom.
😂
Reminds me of dont aks me why lol
good advice from getz
lollll XD
That’s funny, relationship with your band, he kicked out his drummer for 30yrs plus, got sued and then settled out of court. He kicked out Doug Stregneir who then committed suicide as s result of depression of not being in the band,
From my own personal experience, Joel is an arrogant nasty piece of work, an amazing musician and songwriter, but that doesn’t make you a decent man.
I don't like his music and have never given him any of my money. And I have heard from people that have worked with him that he is a bad human.
When you say personal experience, have you ever said a word to him or he to you?
Rudi , the album cover says Billy Joel, not Billy Joel Band. He can use anyone he wants just like every other solo act. It’s a business, not a family affair! Get real.
@@damsbaug33 I think you got your facts wrong and that whole thing about not playing was a lot of bs
@@johnvolpi9403 Except that it's documented and verified by several people involved. But you go ahead and believe the version on your head.
Billy shouldn't change his accent when he's speaking depending on the crowd he's speaking to. He should just be himself.
I think the idea might have been that it made him easier to understand. Idk, that's the only reason I can think of for it.
+Annie Oddo It's too fake. Just how Barack Obama talks more like a black guy when he's speaking to an all black crowd. Just be yourself.
also some people start to unconsciously pick up accents when they're around those accents for long enough.
+Annie Oddo Not in Billy or Barack's cases lol. It's on the fly; not a long term thing
how do you know??
I lose respect for Billy when he changes his accent based on the audience. Just be who you are, and speak how you speak.
A lot of musicians do that, believe it or not. It isn't a conscious thing -- it just means he's listening and adapting to the sounds around him.
I lose respect for Bryan Herber when he sets ridiculous expectations for others. If he is going to take that attitude, then he has to be sure to be “offended” every single time any person does any accent that is not their own. Self righteous bullshit.
@@chuckm1961 Lolol Chuck, are you stalking me? I know you've replied to me before. I stand by my statement. I'm not gonna put on a fake southern accent if I'm playing for a crowd in Louisiana...
@@bherber No, I am not stalking you. You apparently have a knack for making wildly incorrect statements. In this video, are you talking about the 10 seconds in which billy imitates the voice of Stan Getz?
@@chuckm1961 - No, I'm not talking about Stan Getz. I'm talking about the entire thing. He puts on an entirely different accent than how he talks normally. Maybe you just can't hear it.
