The Piano Man at the Shea stadium for the last time

Love this magnificent artist - The Piano man - Billy Joel.

I was at his last live show in the Shea Stadium ...

Itt was an amazing show!

I go to a lot of concerts and this was by far the best I have ever seen.

The sound was amazing and his voice was excellent.
I was blown away how good he sounded live.
What a great sing-a-long concert.

Piano man, Scenes from Italian restaurtant, Just the Way you are, Innocent Man, Zanzibar, You May be Right.

Only the Good Die Young, Captain Jack, Angry Young Man, Always a Woman, NY State of MInd, Lullabye(Goodnight my Angel), Goodnight Saigon, River of Dreams, We Didn't Start the Fire, Allentown, Downeastser Alexa, Movin' Out, My Life, Big Man on Mulberry Street .....It goes on and on!

Special Guests :

Tony Bennet sang duet for New York Stage of Mind.

Don Henley sang Boys of Summer.

John Mellencamp sang Pink Houses, and John Mayer came out and played guitar for This is the Time to Remember.

He also did five or so Beatles covers since they were the first ever to play at Shea.

My throat hurts for screaming and singing and I am sore from all the dancing.

AMAZING SHOW!!!

On the way out of the stadium you heard everyone talking about how amazing it was.

'I Put A Spell On You' - Different versions


This is a GREAT song and CCR's version rocks.


Of course Screaming Jay Hawkins' version is pretty darn good too.

Morrissey in Tel Aviv - Great show !!


former The Smiths frontman , pop legend Morrissey showd live yesterday in Ganey Hataarucha , Tel aviv.

He played some old staff of The Smiths , but most of the show was from his new material - and it was a little disappointing...

I love this artist , he reminds me the 80's...


Watch him live in Israel 29/7/08 , Morrissey is nearly crying as he looks at the sign and bows :



The Smiths - There is a light that never goes out :

Gabriella Cilmi is so sweet !!!

She apparently gets a lot of help from Brian Higgins and Miranda Cooper, the guys who wrote all the Girls Aloud songs, some Suga Babes stuff, and Believe by Cher amoungst other things.

Not to take anything away from GC though, that voice is incredible, I'm sure songs that are all her own maybe just aren't so radio-friendly (by no means a criticism).

She reminds me alittle of Amy Winehouse... what do you think ??

Turn turn turn ...


The Byrds were popular and influential through the latter part of the 1960s and early 1970s.

I never get tired of hearing this song either and I think Forrest Gump was the most endearing character in a movie ever.

He truly knew what LOVE was!
Forrest Gump is the greatest movie i ever seen, and the exact choice of song for the movie..
