Here's a little pet project I've been working on- I absolutely love Billy Joel, and I've wanted to cover a song of his for the longest time... Ha!

This cover starts out as a fairly standard cover of the original song, with some harmonies pretty close to the A cappella version and not a whole lot of anything crazy, but after the beginning of the first verse I decided to take a few liberties and give it a really "bouncy" feel, with the noise track and some noticeably different chord progressions mixed in. I feel like it gives it a somewhat nostalgic feeling, as it makes it slightly reminiscent of some of the more chipper, upbeat songs you would hear in NES games such as DuckTales and Startropics. :)

This chiptune is by no means complete- I haven't gotten through the entire song yet, and even in what I have there are some aspects that could probably use some tweaking, like the harmony of some of the backing. I wanted to upload what I had so far to SoundCloud because it's one that I'm actually quite proud of, personally- I honestly think that this is one of my better ones that I've created thus far, and I'm real fond of it considering that I only started really putting time and effort into it just yesterday. I have plenty of other Famitracker songs that I've created and never finished that I'm sure I'll be uploading sometime in the future, but for now, what do you guys think of this one?

Thanks much! :3
