Top 10 Billy Joel songs

7. ”Only the Good Die Young”

A top 25 hit on the Billboard charts, from his acclaimed 1977 album titled The Stranger. On this track, Joel buzzes about trying to convince a good chaste girl to give a bad boy like him a chance. Joel uses persuasive lyrics like, “Come out Virginia, don't let me me wait/You Catholic girls start much too late/But sooner or later it comes down to fate/I might as well be the one/They showed you a statue and told you to pray/They built you a temple and locked you away/But they never told you the price that you pay/For things that you might have done.../Only the good die young… They say there's a heaven for those who will wait/Some say it's better but I say it ain't/I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints/Sinners are much more fun.../And only the good die young.” He makes a compelling argument for living life to the fullest while you’re still young and I’m certain many a young man used this song in effort to woo their girlfriend to “go all the way.”
