Just the Way You Are - Billy Joel - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Could there be anything as romantic as a gift of a love song? That’s what Billy Joel thought when he gave “Just the Way You Are” to his wife Elizabeth Weber as a birthday present. Unfortunately, they later divorced but that didn’t stop him from writing more songs for two more wives who then became ex-wives. He wrote the hit “Uptown Girl” for his second wife, model Christie Brinkley and “All My Life” for his third wife Katie Lee. "Every time I wrote a song for a person I was in a relationship with, it didn't last," Joel said. "It was kind of like the curse. Here's your song - we might as well say goodbye now.” “Just the Way You Are” won Record of the Year and Song of the Year at the 1979 Grammy Awards.  The backing track for “Just the Way You Are” is available with background vocals or as an instrumental.
