Billy Joel Kids Quotations

I always thought of myself as the piano player in the band. That, I suppose, I'm confident about, and I guess my songwriting developed as I went along and I got a certain amount of confidence in that. The songs are like my kids, I'm proud of all of them for one reason or another.

If you tell kids they can't have something, that's what they want.

My songs are like my kids.

There was an edge of, 'Go away kid, you're bothering me'. I've kicked myself a million times since. I could've discovered Whitney Houston.

I was drawn to boxing because I got beat up as a kid. I was the kid with the piano books in a New York neighbourhood.

From a town known as Wheeling, West Virginia Rode a boy with a six-gun in his hand And his daring life of crime made him a legend in his time East and west of the Rio Grande. Well, he started with a bank in Colorado In the pocket of his vest a Colt he hid. And his age and his size took the teller by surprise, And the word spread of Billy the Kid.

I compare songwriting to childbirth. How many kids can you have before your uterus explodes?
