it's called "Billy Joel flips out in Moscow in 1987."
there are some re-uploads on youtube.com with funnier names like "Billy's Red Rage" but i like this one because it's pretty straightforward and (depending on the reader) could give the illusion that maybe he's just putting on an amazing show. i mean, he did put on an amazing show.
how on earth did he continue playing the song while flipping out like this? his showmanship is unmatched.

a friend of mine once said "billy joel is like kate bush for men" i'm not really sure if i agree but i think it's something to think about for sure.
do men deserve any sort of "equivalent" to kate bush? something else to think about.
billy joel is someone i've talked to multiple uber drivers about in detail and i think it's important to note that in this post. unrelated but i've also had multiple uber drivers spit into the backseat of the car (not at me, thankfully) but just like... into the backseat of their car instead of outside of the window.
and because of that i tipped them more.
bold moves deserve to be rewarded monetarily i've decided.
just last night i had an uber driver named "nathan" talk to me about potholes and hunting turkeys during the entirety of the trip. while he was talking to me about these topics he was complaining about his wife intermittently. i guess at some point he decided to listen to his surroundings instead of his own twisted monologue about turkey and heard my foot tapping to "Are You Gonna Be My Girl?" by the band "Jet" - you might remember this song from an iconic silhouette style iPod commercial - because he decided to play it two more times after that. he also had the audacity to turn the volume knob on that bad boy. i'll say it... i wasn't even mad.
that song is super "rock & roll" ya know?
what's crazy about this video is that it was uploaded in 2008 by an account on youtube.com called "iPodAds" - they have 209 subscribers right now and to my surprise this is not the only account on youtube.com that exclusively archives these iconic silhouette style iPod commercials.
i found another account called "TheiPodSpot" - they only have 63 subscribers.
i wonder if competition in this realm of youtube.com is tough?
