New York State of Mind... ...that's what mood I'm in tonight. Sing it, Billy. "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

The first time I heard NYSoM was Streisand's version and I was blown away at this great song I hadn't heard before. Joel wrote a real classic song with this one. | |

Yup, love Streisand's version, too. "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

On the other hand I find the version Streisand and Joel did together almost unlistenable. | |

Haven't heard it and maybe now I don't want to. "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

One of my favorites! Was just listening to a version today with Billy Joel and Tony Bennett...surprisingly good! It's a song I hope there's a Prince cover for in the vault. π | |
