FREE Ublurred Reaction | The Longest Time - Billy Joel
Comments (8)
Nawh, for me, the title will always be 'For the Longest Time.' Sorry Billy Joel. :P The only positive part about a song fading out is that I have time to find my next song in my mp3 player. Roll to Me by Del Amitri is my song, the way yours is The Longest Time, if that makes sense. It's timeless, I can't help but dance when it comes on, and I always feel a drop of sadness when it's over. But at least it resolves without the fade out! <3
i forgot it was Wednesday
Yes it's all Billy's voice and I believe these are members of his band lip syncing just to make for a fun video.
Pretty sure this was on the one Billy Joel record my dad had in his collection. I've listened to that album more times than I can count.
Despite the copyright issue, it's a great reaction/analysis and I'm so glad you made it free here (I didn't know creators could to that).
I love your bit about people going up and down tiers for a short time. I appreciate your perspective :D I'm pretty sure the fading out thing was because of the radio. DJ's would fade the end of songs out anyway and talk over them, so if it was built in then people wouldn't miss anything important. And it made for easier transitions.
From what I understand, in the original recording and in this video, it's all Billy singing with this video using other people lip syncing to him. There is a separate concert video where other people are singing with him.
for funzies, i'd encourage folks to check out the 'how i met your mother' short version :)
