Uptown Girl – Billy and Sarah

Uptown Girl – Billy and Sarah pairs two favourite songwriters: Billy Joel and Sarah McLachlan. Billy Joel brings 33 songs, opening with “Uptown Girl” and continuing through “Movin’ Out (Anthony’s Song),” “Don’t Ask Me Why,” “Keeping the Faith” and “And So It Goes,” plus a duet with Ray Charles.

Sarah McLachlan contributes 11 songs, including “Fallen,” with duets alongside Josh Groban (“Run”) and Diana Krall adding extra warmth. Jewel shows up four times too, with “Who Will Save Your Soul” among them. The combination works surprisingly well: Billy’s piano-man swagger and storytelling next to Sarah’s soaring, heartfelt ballads. It’s 59 songs perfect for singing along at full voice, whether you’re the piano-bar type belting “Movin’ Out” or the type who can’t resist trying Sarah’s high notes in the car. Great for a long drive, a quiet night in or a kitchen concert while you do the dishes. Classic songwriting, all the way through.
