NEW YORK (Billboard) — Billy Joel has broken his self-imposed retirement from pop for the second time in a year, but he’d almost rather you didn’t know that.
The second new Joel-penned single since his last pop album, 1993′s “River of Dreams,” is called “Christmas in Fallujah” and hits iTunes December 4.
There are two major differences between it and the classics that have made him one of the best-selling artists of all time. First, there’s no piano on it, and second, there’s barely any Billy Joel on it, either. Read the Billboard story here.
