Beastie Boys:

"Billy's a great songwriter. He's a New York native, albeit Long Island. I don't know if Billy Joel realizes that he's a straight-up B-boy. He's in the Soviet Union kicking his piano over; he battles Elton John every night on stage--you don't get any more B-boy than that!" - Michael Diamond, August 1998

Press & Print Media:

"Not part of the new Sounds of Science compilation, this oft-bootlegged in-concert desecration of the Billy Joel tune (recorded in Loreley, Germany, in the summer of '98) finally surfaces on [Alive's] vinyl - the better to capture it in all of its sneering, Pistols-like glory." - John Sakamoto's Jam! Music Anti-Hit List, November 1999
