Show Notes
This week on Glass Houses – A Billy Joel Podcast, Michael and Jack each count down their Top 10 Billy Joel bridges.
From dramatic musical turns and moments that completely change the emotional direction of a song to sharp pin points emphasizing the theme, we dig into the sections that often get overlooked but can be some of the most memorable parts of Billy’s catalog. Along the way, we revisit some familiar favorites, make a case for a few less obvious choices, and take a closer look at how Billy uses a bridge to elevate a song.
Which bridges have stayed with you long after the song ends? See which ones made our lists, listen for the moments you may have never thought of as a “bridge,” and decide which Billy Joel songs make the strongest case for the top spot.
