Which classic-piano-rock artist is better.
I grew up listening to both of them, that's why I chose these two.

Tiny Dancer alone makes a strong case for Sir Elton, but Billy's catalog is too deep to beat.

elton all the way! i've seen both live, and granted they are both waaaaay past their prime, elton is the better act. how can anyone say billy joel has a deeper catalogue???

I'm glad to see some people still listen to good music...
I should've put a "Both" choice, I can't choose.

My dad's seen that tour five time already.
This is gonna be his sixth.
He's seen Elton over two dozen times and Billy probably 10.
I've only seen Billy twice, but it was amazing both times.

Yeah, dude. I don't know if you play piano. But if you do, check that song out, like on a free sheet music site or something, cause that song has such a crazy bass part. Haha.
True that though. It's a great song.
