Displaying all reviews (2)love this song. its my parents song so it holds many good memories for me. learned this one for Valentines day this year- a quick learn and just-challenging-enough. sounds very close to the original.
Kay_W
As a Billy Joel fan, it pains me to say that Musicnotes arrangements of his songs are almost always of an amateurish quality that bears little resemblance to what you hear on the recording. The culprit, once again, is the publishers insistence on writing the melody into the piano line instead of transcribing what Billy plays. This forces the buyer to spend time separating the vocal and piano line. Unless you are a pianist who cannot sing and plan to play the melody, or you are a pianist/vocalist who can arrange by ear, best to avoid.
