We Didn't Start the Fire

Never could understand all the references in Billy Joel's song -- now fortunately, with this video, we can "see" what our "ears" couldn't.

Really Wom, you didn't get it earlier? The lyrics have been available for years.

I've seen this many, many times, and love it each time. Sometimes I just go find it to watch it over again.

I think the artistic creativity of Joel is amazing; not only to research all the "events," but then to put them together in a song with rhymes, and rhythms! AND in historical order!

Thanks, Wombat.

Neat!

I never saw this before.

Cool, gave me a bad case of eye strain with these old eyes but it was nice to see!

[Randi]

I didn't see it before. It's done really well!

Did anyone see that when you "pause" the clip, then click on the picture, it will take you to the "wiki" page of the subject.

Very cool.

I wouldn't have paid any attention to the song years ago anyway...I never liked Billy Joel until quite recently.

Very well done. I was always sort of proud that I knew MOST of these events/people. Judging from the time frame I'd say it wasn't U2 the band. LOL! I've liked Billy Joel off and on. Loved "The Stranger" but I'm a NYer so you sort of have too. LOL! "NY State of Mind" is a favorite as well. Later stuff..mhff. So so.
Thanks for the link. Really interesting.
