Billy Joel is my favorite singer, and it's so hard for me to choose a favorite! I tend to like the less mainstream ones (e.g. I love the Cold Spring Harbor album). I'd have to say my three favorites are:

Summer, Highland Falls
You're My Home (our wedding song)
Angry Young Man

not to mention...
Downeaster Alexa
Falling of the Rain

It's so hard for me to choose.....

Goodnight Saigon (I tear up and get goosebumps everytime I hear it)

Shameless (will take Joel's version over Brooks' anyday)

While the Night is Still Young.

There are just so many.

I absolutely LOVE Billy Joel, ever since I was a kid. My mom loves him too, so when my sisters and I were younger, she alwasy used to sing her favorite song - The Longest Time - to us and we would sing it together Craig's dad also went to high school with Billy Joel! He tells us all the time how back in the day they used to watch him play with his old band, The Hassles and he has all these vintage records of his too. very cool!

I also love Billy Joel even more because it reminds me of my first date with Craig. We were driving back from the beach, and I was falling asleep, but was still half awake with my eyes closed. We were listening to Billy at the time, and when She's Got a Way came on - Craig thought I was asleep and he started singing it to me!!

So, my favorite songs are:

She's Got a Way
The Longest Time
Tell Her About It

but I really love them all!!
