For Sunday: Billy Joel wants you “Just The Way You Are”

---

Back in the 1970s, this song used to make me cry. I loved the saxophone solo, and I loved the plaintive tone of Billy’s voice. 

 

 

 

Then I learned that he wrote this for his first wife, whom he divorced soon afterward, and that he pretty much hated performing this song.

 

 

 

I don't care. I still love it.
