The Stranger

The Stranger
$7.99
Though, "Piano Man", may be Joel's signature song, "The Stranger" is his signature album. After all, though it may not contain, "Piano Man", it contains a wealth of other classics that are just as strong and that is why this album pushed the already famous Billy Joel even further into the spotlight. The material here is uniformly strong with extremely little filler or wasted moments. Most notable are the character sketches such as, "Moving Out (Anthony's Song)", and, "Scenes From An Italian Restaurant". The latter being an extended suite of sorts that Joel actually preferred over, "Piano Man". The big hit here, however, is the romantic ballad, "Just The way You Are", which has become a staple of soft-rock radio. Equally emotional, and perhaps better written, is the love song, "She Always A Woman To Me". But these soft moments are balanced out by the stinging title track and the pro-lust anthem, "Only The Good Die Young" which stirred up quite a bit of controversy when it was initially released. Also, be on the look out for the reflective and gentle, "Vienna" which is an often forgotten masterpiece. Indeed, Joel is a very versatile songwriter and though he went on to make many other classic songs an albums, this one remains his masterpiece. Though many of these songs are found on his greatest hits package, they're best heard here in their original context.

Camus: The Stranger (A Student Guide: Landmarks of World Literature)

CAVEAT EMPTOR!!! The listing is VERY unclear on this point: this IS NOT the text of Camus' The Stranger. It is a literary criticism of Camus' work!! I skimmed through it, and it appears to be an interesting analysis, but if you are looking for the actual book, THIS IS NOT IT!!!

The Strangers

"Based on true events", this film will keep you awake. There is nothing supernatural here...just a gruesome and taunting murder, and that is what is so scary about it. The masks were brilliant. I slept with the lights on for days.
