Thanks for sharing. Brutal lyrics. Read somewhere he said he doesn’t play it much except Philly because that’s where it all started for him with this tune at sigma studio. He said captain Jack has been demoted to Private Jack. 😂

Per capire il talento di Billy basta proprio sentire e leggere le tue traduzioni di queste due canzoni così diverse tra loro ma notevoli veramente ....
Ranks top 5 of BJ tunes. Love the raw street reality. Shame when u get to eat in the restaurants u wish u could and now u can u don’t write songs like that! It’s happens across the board! Still have much respect that he added it to his set list! Props!
A song that shows his earlier life...not sure how often he plays it live..awesome performance..saw him live in Maine late 1990s, not good, did not play greatest hits, I think he was promoting new album which I don't care about, 4 me it's just greatest hits, maybe 2 new songs...i ain't paying those ticket prices, he did do Piano Man as last song.

In a world dominated by Piano Man, this is such a true gem of Joel's.
Posted in 2015. Got me thru my first brain aneurysm operation in 2016.And u smile ,whoa hoo
Vielen ❤️❤️❤️ Dank für Deine wunderbaren Lieder, Melodien und Texte NEVERENDING THANK YOU'S ...
Billy Joel explores the dark side of Seventies youth in depth, wth the insight of a poet and the soul of a true musician.
Really like this comment!👍🏻
The song is fabulously gut level master piece! No sugarcoating.
Yeah. 💯 depressing. But music wise, what a banger. Damn that ending.
I like that chord!
That’s the epitome of a true musician!
Best ever Billy Joel
This song is totally different and 10x better live, esp on Songs in the Attic!
Great song from 1976. One of my first albums.
His best.
The best. Love this song, this version.
His band is awesome. Great musicians. But how many of them were born after Joel wrote this song? Timeless classic.
One of my favorites from 1973's Piano Man album. So many good songs on it!
Grazie infinite Sauro .... Io adoro Billy .... Mi piacerebbero altre canzoni sue sottotitolate

Riccardo Angeli proprio così, un grande artista a 360 gradi
The Star on his chest; Paul McCartney wore one when The Beatles did Shea.
All 4 of The Beatles wore it !
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

Interesting ~ Billy deliberately repeating a mistake in the 1st verse. That’s when you know you’ve really reached the top rung 🎉
This song got me through my divorce.
❤️
Yea he’s slippin
Are you from Joisey?
Captain Jack is heroin. Just a little push and you’ll be flying.
Ummm no.
Captain Jack was a drug dealer that sold heroin.
Theresa!!!
Doesn't play it live any more cause..
You just sit at home and .... Cuddle your kitten
