Song of the Day: Billy Joel - Scenes From An Italian Restaurant

Finally we’ve reached Day 5 of the "Billy Joel's Top Five Billy Joel Songs" countdown.  This is Joel’s favorite...

The Top 5 Billy Joel Songs, Ranked By Billy Joel


Joel’s favorite song from his own collection is … Scenes From An Italian Restaurant.  Yes, another song from his best album, “The Stranger” (1977).

In my mind, Vienna and Scenes From An Italian Restaurant were always a natural pair, not sure why.  They are different, but they strike a similar chord, but in a very different way.  Life goes by quickly, and both these songs ask us to appreciate it.
