I'm in a New York state of mind

Any other Billy Joel fans here? I think the guy is one of the best lyricists around today.

Yep, I like him quite a bit, though it's not my genre of choice.

Well, my genre of choice really depends on my mood. I'll listen to death metal, classical music and lots of different stuff in between.

Oh I'll listen to almost anything (no country or easy listening), but my favorite is always classic rock. Actually if you consider Skynard and the Allman brothers country, then I listen to that too (I consider them 'southern rock' though, so I can still say country stinks ) I think it says even more about Mr. Joel that I'm a fan when I don't often listen to that sort of music.

As long as he doesn't get into "I feel like Driving" state of mind I'm cool with him

He does/did his best work when he was heartbroken or drunk!

I find him boring, but since I am moving to NY next week, I already am in a NY state of mind

Isn't that all the time with him?

He is a good musician. Among my many favorites.
