"Lullabye (Goodnight, My Angel)" is a song by American singer-songwriter #BillyJoel, released in February 1994 by #ColumbiaRecords as the fourth and final single from his 12th album, #RiverOfDreams (1993). It was written and co-produced by Joel, inspired by #AlexaRayJoel, his daughter by #ChristieBrinkley. The song is in the key of #GMajor. It peaked at number 27 on the Canadian #RPM 100 Hit Tracks chart and number 77 on the US #Billboard #Hot100.

This week for @Kitty's Tune Tuesday @derthomas gave us a theme of "The Opener." We remember the first acts / songs we saw live.

Apart from kid's stuff, like Sesame Street Live, the first concert I went to was in 1994 for Billy Joel's River of Dreams tour. My parent's took me and all of my siblings (at the time).

I distinctly remember two things: the song "River of Dreams" and my brother sleeping through the entire concert. That's about it. https://songwhip.com/billy-joel/the-river-of-dreams

To be fair, that was 30 years ago...

EDIT: Added one more memory.
