Paul Simon — With Miley Cyrus, Billy Joel - Madison Square Garden 2017 NEW
On September 30, 2017, Madison Square Garden witnessed an unforgettable meeting of musical generations when Paul Simon and Miley Cyrus joined Billy Joel during his legendary residency. Simon appeared earlier in the evening, teaming up with Joel for two classics, “The Boxer” and “Late in the Evening,” giving fans a rare opportunity to see the legendary singer-songwriter revisit his catalog alongside the Piano Man.
Miley Cyrus later made her appearance, delivering a memorable performance of Joel’s “New York State of Mind.” However, the biggest surprise came during the encore when Simon and Cyrus returned to the stage together. Alongside Joel and his band, the trio launched into “You May Be Right,” turning the 1980 hit into an extraordinary all-star collaboration.
The combination of Simon’s folk-rock legacy, Cyrus’s powerhouse vocals, and Joel’s unmistakable energy made the performance a special moment in Madison Square Garden history. It was a reminder that great songs transcend generations, especially when three remarkable artists share one stage.
