The guy is a legend.... This song helped me through tough times ... He gets it..m he's been there and he's lived it... But that aside, what a great tune, even if it meant nothing it'd still be my head. To top it all off what a great musician and what a great band. I'm not just some guy who has posted.... First post ever.... But warranted.... Thank you Billy.... You have given me perspective 👍
if you like this one listen to it from his prerformance at the long island This song sounds great (not that it already dose) but it sounds amazing in that one!
Absolutely the best song ❤️ Had a high school counselor tell me that the Song will always remind her of me . ????? 😊 My Life my way ❤️ Billy Joel ❤️ Crazy Talented Superstar . Thank you for all of the hits and years you put in . Joy Happiness Music Magic.. so rare nowadays God bless ❤❤❤❤
Ah, those were the days, great times! I mean, I'm assuming, I wasn't born yet. But people were so talented, or at least it was required to be talented to in the business, surely it was an awesome time to be alive.
Sou muito fã Esse cara é Billie Joe janesta época que vivemos já não se faz música com essa pegada Fiesta qualidade sonora música para bons ouvidos uma boa audição música e cantores da minha audição
Is it weird that I was listening to this song on repeat when I heard the news about declaring the Opportunity rover dead? Now this song reminds me of Opportunity whenever I listen to it...
@@erichirsch583 His daughter, the actress and model Torey DeVitto was born during this show and they were feeding news to Billy to announce to the audience and to update Liberty, so he was probably a bit pumped up on the night, as well as know the show was a rare live broadcast by the BBC too.
I'm sure your (ex)husband would say something similar but regardless I hope you've found happiness. Been married to my wife 15 years and we are still very happy together.
You do realize the drums to this song are extremely easy, right? Any average drummer could play this and all most all other Billy Joel songs. The drums in his songs are all super easy. You want to see a really good drummer? Go watch Mike Mangini in the band Dream Theater.
+joel turner was presumably being ironic, since Billy counted in the song with "un deux, un deux trois quatre"........something that seems to have escaped your notice.
The end of you're marriage to Christie was the best thing that ever happened to you although it didn't seem so at the time....that's the way it looked from here anyway.
The Man that lives the single life- yet wants a wife on HIS terms? Hell No! A wife is for life! We girls KNOW men like this! No matter what you SAY- IT IS ALWAYS ABOUT HIM.
keogh1969 what part of this song suggests to you he's singing about a married man wanting his wife back ..... do you even listen to or read lyrics .... can you even read
keogh1969 this song applies to you I think, a brilliantly written master piece of music .. Basically saying Live your life how you want and don't depend on anyone :) written by the legend billy himself
Another purple haired feminist with a cat, a dead houseplant, and a hatred of men. Keep your feminism and your demented view of the world away from this masterpiece. P.S. Billy Joel beats Joan Jett any day of the week
Lady us men control the markets and the government but that aside this song is not about a wife lmao can you comprehend words????this is about him leaving his house. Youre probably ugly and blame men for your failures whiles us men wipe our tears woth our money. You hurt us
On Billy album The Stranger, which was the previous one to and the year before 52nd Street that My Life appears on, the opening track is called Movin' Out (Anthony's Song)" and is a critique of the working and lower-middle classes in New York City who strive for material success as a sign of social mobility. The song's characters are stuck in their routines and lives, working long hours to afford status symbols like a Cadillac or a home in Hackensack, New Jersey. Joel implies that these efforts are ultimately futile. My Live was in a similar vein but from a younger man's perspective and is about the importance of forging your own path in life and being responsible for your own decisions. The song's message is that people may try to guide you, but you must ultimately live with the consequences of your own choices. Nowhere does it mention marriage, though.
WTF? This song is about a young man who recently moved out telling his over protective parents he is just fine.... hence why he says its my life..... do research before you speak
The beauty of Billy joel music its for general audience no specific person its about anyone moving out of his house and the struggles he faced becoming a musician.a problem we all face when conquering goals
Это слово СУПЕР!!! Такое исполнение на концертной сцене надо сделать!!! Сделать не просто так....Великолепный Билли!!! Уважение ему!!! Талант!!!
No one plays a piano like him, he’s incredible
The best version ever recorded
So, SO good. No better live performer out there than BILLY, then and now.
When live performance sounds even more awesome than studio version! What a great guy.
本当にビリージョエルは素顔です♪
いつ聴いても最高💓
いい曲ばかりです♪大好き💕

Liberty DeVito is a beast.

Liberty DeVito
Liberty is the best drummer visually for stadiums. He could really sell a groove!
아 진짜요~~~
This is one of my favourite live performances I’ve ever seen. So much good energy

Billy Joel HAS written SOME GREAT SONGS AND This is ONE of THEM
I think this is my favorite Billy Joel song. Very straight-forward. No bullshit.
Absolutely the best song ❤️ Had a high school counselor tell me that the Song will always remind her of me . ????? 😊 My Life my way ❤️ Billy Joel ❤️ Crazy Talented Superstar

She was a beautiful as always 😍
I was there at this concert this is Billy Joel at his very best
They really enjoyed playing this song. I feel the authencity of the lyrics.
notice he slips and says that last 'circumstance' with the New Jersey/York accent, 'soikumstance' haha
"awfer" also!
Seattle never been to New York and New Jersey. Always wanted too. It would be nice to see the East Coast.
I thought it was a British accent since he is at Wembley
kkkkkkkkkk
On purpose I think. He was born in New York wasn't he?
De verdad que para Mi es la cancion más apreciable por su composicion y arreglo. Excelente! Bily.
One of Seattle's number 1 Billy Joel's songs. Great live version.
My dad took my brother and I to see Billy Joel and Elton John tour in the 80's! Magnificent! 🐾🐝
Belíssima performance, Billy, Band and Mark Rivera!
Artista fabuloso, em tudo que faz.
Maravilhoso Billy Joel. Lembra um
Tempo que fui muito feliz. Ao som. Das suas melodias.
Want a band... But Billy Joel is still the best
Incredible performance, incredible song. Top 3 of his for me
This song helped me through a devorce.........its my life well done Billy
I think these instruments are some of the most in tune I have heard live.
Love how he signals your the drummer that he’s gonna do the “dontcha dontcha dontcha get me wrong”
Billy and the guys at their best! This is real talent, not the crap materialistic shit music that is now popular today!
guitar6547 the great singer i admire to him

One of the greats!!!!!
元気もらってます❣
延焼中の「くそ」と「ばか」と叫ぶのが､耳障りでがくっときます。
延焼中は私で、演奏中に訂正してね。Up town girl, piano man,ビリーのいい曲たくさんですね。
Amo Billy Joel para sempre.
Love Billy!
Music of choice for my dear friend Iain. This was at his cremation last Friday....

1:49 Epic drummer!😂

Любимчик ты наш! Как был, так и остался.
Época de música com qualidade, infelizmente isso e coisa do passado... Bily Joel era bom demais 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Sensacional. Great artist.
かっこよすぎ

Dig Liberty's drum fill at 4:44. Bonkers
Love the drummer 😂 he looks like he’s having a blast
Overpowering. Trying too hard to be the star.
@@LaDolceVita-1nope that’s how Liberty plays .. with lots of energy.. and he’s amazing!

For EVERY girl who has married. There comes a TIME when THIS song resonates. God Bless Us ALL!!!!
The fuck you talking about lmao
ha ha...you think your shit don't stink? And every boy.
I'm sure your (ex)husband would say something similar but regardless I hope you've found happiness. Been married to my wife 15 years and we are still very happy together.

Billy Joel - My Life (Live at Wembley 🔥 Remember When a was Child! 🎼 Manu Best Record 'Live' - 1984 🎼/🎥
Liberty DeVitto one of the best drummers ever.
Is he the father of the actress DeVitto from Chicago Med? Yes...checked now!

@@Michael-jw6et I seriously doubt you're nowhere near as good a drummer as Liberty DeVitto.
@@Michael-jw6et Mike Mangini, pmsfl. He wouldn't make the top 100 drummers.
My fav intro and 2nd voice .
Billy Joel is the grand.
Excelente canción
かっこいいな～!!!
Liberty tearin it up!
Put it on 1.25x speed, it’s gold
'Tis epic when played at 1.5x
0.75
Speed 2.0 = Carnaval!
That's how you play drums !
OMAR JESU LORD KING MI LOVE MI LOVE MI LOVE !!!!
Is it too much to say that this song should be listed as one of the wonders of the world?
This was the best BJ band by far!!!!
❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤❤🎉
Billy Joel piano pieces
just bought this on record fucking belter
very good
think somebody should have informed billy that Wembley was in London not Paris . lol great song all the same xxx
Hi joel turner be sure to listen at 5:18 - billy says good evening to you London, London England
I think +joel turner was referring to how Billy counted in the song in French.
He CLEARLY said LONDON. Open your ears. Shut your gob. TRUMP FOREVER
+joel turner was presumably being ironic, since Billy counted in the song with "un deux, un deux trois quatre"........something that seems to have escaped your notice.
This was because it was televised all across Europe. In another song in the same concert he counted in German.
I feel his respect to Shalala lala.
Genius
4:18 I love how the piano man jump in the back
it's awful
The end of you're marriage to Christie was the best thing that ever happened to you although it didn't seem so at the time....that's the way it looked from here anyway.

Liberty DeVitto. From 1976 to 2006 Joel's drummer ...
His wife back home in America was due to give birth to his first daughter during this show.

LOL mad drummer
Which song is the intro, i mean the part he plays before he really starts with my life?
@Vince Ling: The song was America:The Beautiful.
@@jcj2007 Thanks!!!
幼稚園の時のスイミングプール
Is it Joel or Jo el ?
Joel to rhyme with Noel as in Noel Gallagher of Oasis rather that No-el of Christmas.
I can hear he says "Bakayarou!".It's Japanese language .In English, "fool","stupid","idiot"???
He said ”ばかやろーBakayaroo”（in Japanese) Don't be foolish.？？
BAKAYARO means “idiot”
from Japan^_^
Back when humans were analog and aesthetically much more pleasing - the digital humans of today are cheap copy/paste, autotuned versions of real life.
