I thought it was an outstanding talk. Billy Joel totally disrespected by the NY Times complete joke of a list. I think it was all intentional to get people rage baiting. No one with a clue about music would have left him off the list.

With all Billys millions . I think whats he's probably thinking is how much body of work can I leave behind before the grim reaper sneaks in on whatever age he is .

Legacy isn't all it's cracked up to be. It's fake immortality.

Well making millions is talking about the craft of songwriting . If he was no good at it . he would not make millions at it . I think he keeps going like Dylan , there is nothing else to do Jason Blume has nothing to do with Billy . Not sure why you brought that up

Because alot of songwriters online read Jason blumes advice, about songwriting.
I'd rather listen and learn and try to apply Billy's ideas.
What dont you get? One is a songwriting legend, one is a book seller.
I post stuff like this for a reason, it's 95% of what I post, nobody here is interested.

Thats why we hear what we hear
You always sound so hostile . I've listened to enough advice on song writing . Thats not the hard part . The hard part is recording them to beat AI robot songs
Suno gives you the identity of sounding and looking like Brad Pitt for 3 minutes . When the dopamines wear off . You're back to sounding and looking like a Basset hound.
It's a beautiful ploy by Suno . They know that and thats why the company is worth billions .

It does not hurt checking out what one of the music business' most successful, enduring, hitmakers of all time, has to say about songwriting, if you think you are one, or aspirre to be one.
To argue against that, is moronic, go write for the NY times

For starts use spell check . I never said I was a good as Billy Joel . I write my little songs , record and promote . I followed Billy Joels advice . You do not . you push buttons

Yeah, spell check.
I have an excuse, auto correct.
You somehow comprehended that what I said here, was that you said you were better than billy Joel.
Never said you said that. I don't think you have much of an attention span, and you have terrible reading comprehension
it's not about following advice. It's about seeing how somebody else does it, maybe it can be useful to you.
Maybe not.
But your stupid comments...
Ahhh derrrr, if I had millions I'd be down to earth too...
I wouldn't be criticizing my typos, in a battle of witts you are doomed.
Like I said I followed Billy Joels advice . write songs and record them . You push Suno buttons. Why don't you ask Billy about pushing buttons ? I'm sure he would be impressed with it . Yes I put some lyrics in a box and push a button . I'm a true artist Billy . I also have very strong commutation skills in telling other writers they're jacking each other off . I'm sure he'd love to hear from you . You can't even spell wit .
Well thats enough negative energy . I sure like these dancers ..
