Billy Joel is a successful singer, pianist, and songwriter. He is referred to as the “piano man” after his first charting song. He has been nominated for 23 Grammy Awards and has won six. He was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1999. In 2013, Joel was recognized at the Kennedy Center Honors.
In 1978, Joel released 52nd Street, which included his hit Big Shot. The album peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard charts. The single only reached 14. The song describes someone behaving like a big shot and running their mouth all over town.
The news last week described the new “big shot” by the FDA and the CDC ACIP (Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices) for COVID-19. Is it important to spread the word all over town?
