You're Only Human (Second Wind)

You're Only Human (Second Wind)

As we bring you our second to last Billy Joel song, we oddly bring you a big hit YET not on a standard album. Today we discuss "You're Only Human". A big hit for Billy Joel in 1985 off of his mega selling Greatest Hits Volumes One and Two albums. Go figure an upbeat ditty about teenage suicide would be such a smash, but it was and all of the proceeds went to National Committee for Suicide Prevention. We're glad we saved a few classics for the end of the podcast. 😀
