Billy Joel stopped by The Late Show to discuss his new single, “Turn The Lights Back On,” and his Madison Square Garden residency. The musician also spoke about his hit “Piano Man,” which was released 50 years ago, and his idea for a supergroup he wanted to start with Sting, Don Henley, and John Mayer. Produced by Freddy Wexler, who has worked with everyone from Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez to Celine Dion and Kanye West, the song is a tender love ballad that doubles as a message to fans who have waited all these years for new material.
