Nostalgic Music Thread

[RoadNasty]

I remember my first day on campus at UMass in September of 1972, and that song playing on the radio as I stared out the window of my dorm room.

I still stare out of windows and listen to music. And sometimes it's as good as that Billy Paul song.

I posted it because for some reason I heard it 4 times in 2 days. The last time I just have my 200 cd player on shuffle and it came up this afternoon.

Great tune - and great memories and comments. I haven't heard that one in 40+ years or so I bet.........I listened all the way through.

Not very nostalgic, but another cover that is soo much better than the original.

Don't know why it popped into my head. Neat pictures though.

Song: Just The Way You Are
Artist: Billy Joel





Billy Joel is far from being near the top of my list of favorite artists, but he was inspired by the Muse on this one.

I know I loved every song on this album.

This is nostalgic for me and holds very special meaning.

Geez I'm getting old. This came out when I was like 11.

Heard it for the first time on Casey Kasims America's Top Forty on my transistor radio.

Probably one of the first songs I remember listening to on my friend's (RIP) rad stereo system.

listened to a lot of this kind of stuff back then while pretending air drumming and air guitar. It was fun.

Flip a coin between this version and the KC one. Today, this one wins ;-)
