132. "Until the Night" by Billy Joel [iTunes? Yes] {YouTube: Until the Night (Live).}
"I never ask you where you go after I leave you in the morning. We go our different ways to separate situations."
"As they pour into the streets I will be getting closer. As the cars turn their headlights on."
I love the imagery of this song. As the song reaches its climax I can almost see all the tail lights of the cars driving home for the night.
I used to always wonder who was singing the song with Billy. I looked at the liner notes on the album to see if some special guest star had been credited with singing it with Billy. It took me years to figure out that both parts were being sung by Billy Joel in a duet with himself! (Ah, the magic of the recording studio.)
