In his new HBO documentary, Billy Joel addresses his feud with Elton John and talks about his career; however, it quietly ignores one major aspect of the musician's life.

And So It Goes,” the singer is opening up about some tough moments with longtime friend and tourmate Elton John.

In the new documentary Billy Joel: And So It Goes, the Piano Man singer admitted that there was “bad blood” between himself and Sir Elton after an interview the latter gave to Rolling Stone in 2011, opening up about how past joint tours of theirs had to be cancelled due to “illnesses and various other things” including the former’s “alcoholism”.

The Stranger singer was referring to Elton John's comments in a 2011 Rolling Stone interview. The Blue Moves musician talked about Joel “not writing his music anymore,” asserting that it was “either fear or laziness.” Elton felt that his fellow singer was “coasting.” He further remarked on the canceled tours and Billy needing rehab:

Billy Joel is looking back at the highs and lows of his life. In his new two-part documentary Billy Joel: And So It Goes on HBO Max, the "Uptown Girl" singer recalled getting treatment for alcohol abuse at the Betty Ford Center in 2005.

John’s full quote wasn’t exactly subtle. He blamed Joel’s alcoholism for tour cancellations, accused him of “coasting,” and described Joel’s rehab stints as “light,” quipping that when he went to rehab, he had to clean the floors, while Joel had TVs.

So It Goes’ will fully prepare you to teach a college class on Joel the angry young man, Ex-Wife Guy, and unlikely superstar.

Billy Joel has a right to his opinions, of course, but many might not like his stance on one legendary Beatles album.
