Default Who You Think Did A Better Version Of Just The Way You Are? Billy Joel Or Barry White

I think both versions are very nice. So it's hard for me to say which version is better. I was listening to Barry's version a few days ago. I like how he talks at the beginning of the song. Jazz artist Grover Washington Jr did a version of the song. RIP Grover and Barry.

God bless Barry White, but to me the song really belongs to Billy Joel.

Billy Joel's version is great but my all-time favorite version of that song has got to be Diana Krall's version. I just love how she has the jazzy piano in the song and with her soft alto voice makes that song so pretty.
