MY LIFE - by Billy Joel[3Speak Song Cover]

This one has been stuck in my chest for days, so I had to let it out.

For my 3Speak vlog today, I'm singing one of my all-time favorite.. Billy Joel's "My Life." On the surface it's a classic, feel-good, oldies-but-goodies anthem. But if you really listen to it? It's pure angst! It's that moment when you're done explaining yourself, done trying to fit into everyone's expectations, done apologizing for choosing yourself.
I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life. Go ahead with your own life, leave me alone.
That line hits different when you're in that phase of life where you just want to close the door, turn up the music, and reclaim your own space. That's why I love this song. It's not happy, it's liberating. It's angry, but in the most relatable way only Billy Joel can do.

This is raw, one-take for a live streaming app. Just me, my voice, and all the feelings I've been holding in. Not perfect, but it's honest. And honestly, that's what this song is about.

Let me know if you ever felt this way too. What song makes YOU want to take your life back?
