Forgive the gushing, but 23-year-old charming, adorable, clean cut Charlie Puth is also a prodigious talent with a distinctive style, who plays the piano, sings, writes and produces, and one can’t help but compare him to that other piano man, Billy Joel, who was just 24-years old when he released “Piano Man.”

“One Call Away” (I mean really, how great a title is that) is a mid-tempo Top 40 hit about boy meets girl. Young love. Written with clever hooks and lyrics, sensitivity, sincerity and believability, it  brings to mind Billy Joel’s “Just The Way You Are” (1977)
Additional Information
This year alone, Charlie Puth has had two international hits, one with Wiz Khalifa, as part of the soundtrack for “Furious 7,” and another, a romantic ballad, with Meghan Trainor https://boomermusicupdate.com/top-40/charlie-puths-marvin-gaye-is-a-must-listen-to/

It’s important to be aware of Charlie Puth–he’s a force of nature, way ahead of the pack. Puth could be the Frank Sinatra for the millennial generation, an artist with rare talents, in it for the long haul.
