A Quote by Taylor Goldsmith

That's happened a couple times: Billy Joel. It was just, "You sound like Billy Joel." And I get really upset about that. No offense to that guy, but it's not for me.

I respect Billy Joel, but I'm not a guy who's gonna sit down and listen to the entire 'Essential Billy Joel.'

Garth Risk Hallberg

In terms of other people's perception of me, that's their business. There are people who I have never met but, for whatever reason, I am certain that these people are jack-offs. I've never met Billy Joel, but I'm absolutely convinced he's an asshole. I can't justify that opinion, that's just what I think. But my opinion about Billy Joel isn't going to affect him in the slightest. In the same way, I am sure there are people out there who are completely convinced that I am an asshole, for whatever reason. They might even feel more justified than I feel about my presumptive opinion of Billy Joel.

Steve Albini

There are some seminal things that happened in the '70s for me: Billy Joel and Jackson 5.

Isaac Hanson

I happen to be a guy who also plays the piano and sings, so people automatically associate me with Billy Joel.

Gavin DeGraw

Dylan is so brilliant. To me, he makes William Shakespeare look like Billy Joel.

George Harrison

I've had so many hot, cheesy, corny loves of music in my life. I had a very intense Billy Joel period. So once you've really Joeled it up - there's some good periods of Joel; it's not all hot cheese. But I can't judge anyone else for their cheese. I've deep-sea dived in the Gouda.

Jack Black

Billy Joel is an incredible musician. He just feels like one of the guys, you know. I grew up listening to his music.

Action Bronson

Because of Billy Joel, I've been playing piano since I was knee high. The house was always full of music, so of course he's influenced me, but I think I've also developed my own sound. He's also been really good about giving me advice, which I think has helped me really stay true to what I want to do musically.

Alexa Ray Joel

My big influences are piano artists like Billy Joel and Elton John.

Kyle Dunnigan

Most Billy Joel songs make me want to cry a little.

Torrey DeVitto

It looked like it might not work out with Michael Keaton, so they asked Joel Schumacher, `Who do you want for Batman?` When he said me, I asked my agent, `Why? Who did they not get?` I`d met with Joel a couple of times before about other (movies). I didn`t know anything in terms of the cast, story or anything, but I said, `Sure, sounds like fun.` - On accepting his role as Batman.
