“I said, ‘Yeah, go ahead, use my stuff,’” Billy Joel recently told Access Hollywood. The Piano Man released his songs to Glee for use on the popular series, which has made many songs famous again. “I was in a chorus when I was in high school, why not?” He said.

Joel’s signature song “Piano Man” was crooned on-screen by guest star Neil Patrick Harris during last season’s “Dream On” episode, and there’s good reason to suspect that fans will be treated to more Joel in the future. However, Billy Joel doesn’t plan on doing a Britney Spears - he won’t be making a guest appearance on the series. “I’m just not a big TV actor type of guy,” he explained. “I’m a piano player.”
