I was reading the WSJ Monday 2/5 and came across an article about the Grammys. Not being a fan, I skimmed by but Billy Joel's name popped out at me. It mentioned his new single, “Turn the Lights Back On.” That was after a 23 year hiatus which prompted me to head to YouTube to check it out.

I assumed it was the first video below. The actual writers names were in your face on the video, but the title read "Turn the Lights Back On Billy Joel". It was counter-fit. To tell you the truth I like it better than Joel's version which is the second video.

So what happened. A very talented blogger named Tom Scharpling knew Billy Joel was launching a new song at the Grammy's and wanted to beat him to it. His blog's video of how this was accomplished is No. 3.
