Billy Joel is a New York piano pop ...

Billy Joel is a New York piano pop legend. (a little like Elton John, except not an English whoopsy)

/i know he really hasnt done much worth talking about in the last 30 yrs-

This is a load of crap, because about 20 years ago he had hits with 'Uptown Girl' 'For the Longest Time'. Later still he hit big with "We didn't start the Fire", and subsequently that song "In the Middle of the Night". But basically all his big hits ARE in the last 30 years, hit's like; "I Love you just the way you are" , "It's still Rock n Roll to me", "New York State of Mind" "Piano Man",
Previously married to model Christie Brinkley (who features in the Uptown Girl video). I'd say Lena should take a break from Voom and do the gig, simply because Billy Joel has claimed that before he was the 'Piano Man' he used to be in hard rock band. I think Being the fat, black annoying ho she is, she might be able to inspire him to return to his rock roots and make a come back.

Well, the combined weight of a band like Voom, masquerading as an individual has got to have a greater mass than 90% of real people.

Well, the combined weight of a a years worth of guano, masquerading as an individual has got to constitute 99% of the mass of you

Dear Lena, you dump on the most powerful Rhythm and Blues artist of the 20th Century in the form of the incomparable Mr James Brown, then wax-lyrical on some fat clown borrowing Beatles tunes in forlorn attempt to revive his sagging career. Is their any explation for this behaviour?

But your right about his later stuff sucking. I didn't like anything he put out after 52nd Street. 52nd Street and The Stranger are both superb.

Come on, lena o says she's a black woman in (at least) her 80s who's been married to another woman, hung out with Neil Young, George Orwell, Curtis Mayfield (? can't be bothered checking...) and many others, still going on benders on a bunch of speedballs, and has just been in New York hooking up with Billy Joel. What's not to believe?

By the way, apparently Big Star did a great album and there's this one Cher song that everyone should hear. *sigh*
