For one college freshman, all it took was a little guts, and a question.

Vanderbilt University freshman Michael Pollack attended a concert and Q&A session with Joel back in January, where he actually mustered up the bravery to ask Joel if he’d be up for a little duet:

“My favorite song of yours is ‘New York State of Mind’…I was very fortunate to play with Richie Cannata [Joel’s saxophone player] many times in New York City and I was wondering if I could play it with you.”

Without any hesitation, Joel was in, and Pollack headed up to the stage.  And the rest is a night to remember…

Check out the full video below, and always remember that sometimes, all you need is to ask, and all your dreams may just come true…
