   • "Piano Man" (From Piano Man, 1973) After Cold Spring Harbor was released, and bombed, in 1971, Joel took comfort by playing piano at a lounge in Los Angeles, where he had relocated from New York to record his debut album.
   • "Just the Way You Are" (From The Stranger, 1977) Six years and five albums into his career, Joel finally landed a Top 10 hit with this quintessentially '70s ballad.
   • "Uptown Girl" (From An Innocent Man, 1983) Billy Joel laid out his intentions for his An Innocent Man album from the start: It was designed as a tribute to the songs of his formative years.
   • "New York State of Mind" (From Turnstiles, 1976) 1976's Turnstiles was a turning point for Joel, who had made four albums at that point that hadn't done much on the charts.

   • Summer, Highland Falls. It’s Joel’s best combination of lyrics — not a single wasted word in the bunch, a picture painted of a relationship on the rocks — and music.
   • Vienna. A timeless message — slow down, shut off the phone, reset — because your Vienna awaits if you can focus your fire and passion. All of that packed into one of his best hooks.
   • New York State of Mind. The greatest song written about New York City (yes, better than that tune Frank Sinatra sang a lot, there I said it), a Ray Charles-esque ballad with that bridge that gets even better the second time he sings it.
   • And So It Goes. Goodness, it’s beautiful and poetic.
