River of Dreams (Audio CD),20 October, 1998
List price $9.98
A really bad effort for Billy / 1
I am assuming with all the 4 and 5 star reviews of the piece of junk, that the people reviewing this must be DIE HARD Joel fans. I am a big fan of Billy and liked every CD he put out, but as the 70's and 80's moved on, so did Billy's music. When Storm front was released at the end of the 1980's, not only did it close the 80's, but I believed closed the end of the Billy Joel era. I believe that after "Storm Front" he really wanted to start pursuing other musical paths, (as most of you know he writes classical works today) and I don't think that River of Dreams had any feel or effort put forth into it. If there are any songs of hope, No Mans Land isn't terrible, but the rest of the album sure is. Hey, when The Nylon Curtain was first released, I didnt like it either. But it grew on me over the years as I see that was a darker Billy, and he really wanted to make a radical change with his music. This album is poorly written (Blond over Blue and Goodnight are just awful) Every artist lays an egg with an album sometime, and this was Billy's EGG. If you are looking to add this to your Joel collection, you might want to since it is selling on here for only one cent, but the only thing it will be good for is a coaster!
Song "And So It Goes"
In every heart there is a room
A sanctuary safe and strong
To heal the wounds from lovers past
Until a new one comes along
I spoke to you in cautious tones
You answered me with no pretense
And still I feel I said too much
My silence is my self defense
And every time I've held a rose
It seems I only felt the thorns
And so it goes, and so it goes
And so will you soon I suppose
But if my silence made you leave
Then that would be my worst mistake
So I will share this room with you
And you can have this heart to break
And this is why my eyes are closed
It's just as well for all I've seen
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows
So I would choose to be with you
That's if the choice were mine to make
But you can make decisions too
And you can have this heart to break
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows.
