Billy Joel's voice is none other than HSM "it boy" Zac Efron.
...and now on to some Billy Joel covers. The first is by a vocal jazz group from Germany called BERLIN VOICES. They released a whole album of his covers entitled "States of Mind."
This is a very interesting album. I don't "love" every track, but they do some very interesting things with his music....
... I do LOVE their swingin' version of "ALLENTOWN!" This is the "must download track" from the album.
Stage and screen vixen Bernadette Peters put out a lovely version of "HE'S GOT A WAY" (pronoun obviously changed) on her 1996 release "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight."
Also, you must check out this stunning version of "AND SO IT GOES" by Jazz siren Sara Gazarek. I featured this in a previous post, but it's SO good that I couldn't resist another mention.
Finally, the recently cancelled ELI STONE (don't even get me started) featured a lovely cover on it's last aired episode. Here's the lovely Laura Benanti (recently seen as Gypsy Rose Lee on Broadway) singing (and playing) a lovely version of "THIS NIGHT." The song starts at 0:57.
