This is the time to remember — Billy Joel was born on this day in 1949! This baby picture shows young Billy listening to music in the Bronx with a record in his hand. Years later, he would write and record some of the greatest songs in popular music.

To celebrate his 66th birthday, listen below to a special Spotify playlist and YouTube playlist of some of Billy's biggest songs, many of which appreciate the passage of time. From “Prelude/Angry Young Man” to “Souvenir,” he's loved these days, and we hope you have too.
