Billy Joel - Movin' Out (Anthony's Song)
- 2 months ago
“Movin' Out (Anthony’s Song)” is the first track off Billy Joel’s hit 1977 album The Stranger. It is also the title of the Twyla Tharp Broadway dance musical) which featured many of Billy Joel’s other hits.
Focused on the aspirations of working and lower-class New Yorkers, the song puts into question the amount of effort it would take for the characters to achieve their own slice of the “American Dream.”
Near the end of the recording is the sound of a car starting up and driving away, and it was actually the bass player’s (Doug Stegmeyer) 1960s Corvette that was used.
