This week on Here’s the Thing – Alec sits down with fellow Long Islander Billy Joel – at the piano – for a conversation about life and the musical choices he’s made.
Please use the comments to demonstrate your own ignorance, unfamiliarity with empirical data and lack of respect for scientific knowledge. Be sure to create straw men and argue against things I have neither said nor implied. If you could repeat previously discredited memes or steer the conversation into irrelevant, off topic discussions, it would be appreciated. Lastly, kindly forgo all civility in your discourse . . . you are, after all, anonymous.
Amazing, thanks so much!!!
All of the intellect and honesty that is missing from modern entertainment.
I don’t think a young entertainer from this era has an equivalent path. The game has changed in ways that would exclude a young Billy Joel from the action. Like Malcolm Gladwell’s Outliers posits – you have to be the right person in the right place at the right time. It’s all three or nothing. Smart young entertainer today can’t get on Idol without a friend of the family. They’re looking for a dumb good looking young entertainer to make a few songs and then go away.
