Billy Joel is celebrating his 75th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.
Popular singer-songwriter-pianist Billy Joel (Honesty, Just the Way You Are, Piano Man, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 75th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Joel, a cultural icon
Born William Martin Joel in New York on May 9, 1949, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Joel's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Billy hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Billy Joel as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 75.
Happy Birthday, Billy, you're the best!
