"Piano Man" is a song written and performed by American singer-songwriter Billy Joel. As his first single in North America, it was included on Joel's 1973 album of the same name and later released as a single on November 2, 1973. The song is sung from Joel's point of view as a piano player at a bar, reminiscing about his experiences there and the people he encountered. "Piano Man" is based on Joel's real-life experiences as a lounge musician in Los Angeles from 1972 to 1973, which he had decided to pursue in an effort to escape his contracted New York City-based record company at the time, Family Productions, following the poor commercial performance of the album Cold Spring Harbor. Joel describes various characters, including a bartender named John and a "real estate novelist" named Paul,

  • "Piano Man" foi a música de maior sucesso sucesso de Billy Joel e é considerada a música de assinatura do artista. Os versos da música são cantados do ponto de vista de um pianista de bar que foca em todos os outros no bar, John o bartender, a garçonete, e visitantes como Paul e Davy. A maioria das personagens são sonhos não completos, e o trabalho de pianista, ao que parece, é ajudar os outros a esqueçar da vida por um momento. O refrão, vem dos donos do bar que cantam, "Sing us a song. / You're the piano man. / Sing us a song, tonight. / "Well, we're all in the mood for a melody, / and you've got us felling alright." (Cante-nos uma canção. / Você é o pianista. / Cante-nos uma canção esta noite. / Bem, nós estamos dispostos a uma melodia. / E você nos faz sentir bem.) (pt)
