His style is sort of pop, like Billy Joel or Elton John.

As an atheist you have to rationalize things. . . . Then you have to try and make some sort of sense out of your problems. And if you try and find you can't, you have no choice but to be good and scared -- but that's okay!

It's exciting. It's a double dose of Billy Joel.

My big influences are piano artists like Billy Joel and Elton John.

I'm sure Jimi didn't tell Billy Cox everything. Their sort of revisionist history of things has to be taken with a grain of salt.

The only other consistent thing in Billy’s life was his father. Billy didn’t call him that though. He’d always called him Pop. Billy’s Pop would have laughed at all that career day stuff. Pop didn’t have crazy hair but Billy was pretty sure he was a genius. Pop told him stuff they didn’t let you in on at school, like how there was supposed to be future stuff already, like moving sidewalks and monorails and jetpacks. Pop told him that the government had lied and screwed people out of all that stuff and the only reason we ever went to the moon was to bury Jimmy Hoffa up there.
