Billy_Joel

Billy Joel Over the past century there have been many defining moments throughout Broadway and all of musical theater. These musicals have provided us with music, dancing, and stories that we will remember forever. But not until recently, have we seen a performance so remarkable that it will be remembered along with all the great performances. The musical Movin’ Out composed and written by Grammy winning song writer and performer, Billy Joel. Although all of the songs in this musical are fantastic, this paper will compare and contrast two of them, “We Didn’t Start the Fire”, and “Pressure.” I believe that “Pressure” is a better song for providing a sense of chaos and fighting than “We Didn’t Start the Fire” because the lyrics depict a more realistic sense of reality and make the audience believe that the song is describing exactly what is happening to the characters. This musical was written by one of the greatest song writers and performers of all time, Billy Joel. Billy Joel was born 9 May 1949 in Hicksville Long Island.
