SOTD - Billy Joel - Keeping the Faith

Keeping with the current optimistic faith theme (weird for an atheist), today's song of the day is Billy Joel's Keeping the Faith.  I haven't heard back about my job interview yet, so I'll be waiting I guess.



But really, this song is about getting old and memories.  I had a recent moment where I felt kind of old.  A friend of mine is a musician and was recently in town for a show.  He got tickets and backstage passes for my wife and I and left them at will call.  The young girl at will call was a little a surprised (as was I) that there were backstage passes in there and as she gave them to me, I said, "It'll be like Wayne's World".  And I kinda held up the pass as Wayne does in this scene. 



But no look of recognition on her face.  And then I realized that movie was from like 20 years ago (1992).  I guess that was a really dated reference.  Oh well.  I guess I'm getting old.
