Billy Joel's twelfth studio album, "River of Dreams," reached the number one spot on the Billboard 200 Album chart. This album, which features a cover painted by Joel's then-wife Christie Brinkley, marked his fourth album to reach the top spot and remained there for three weeks. The title track of the album also became a top-five hit, making it Joel's final entry on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. One of the standout tracks on the record is "Lullabye (Goodnight, My Angel)," a heartfelt tribute to his daughter Alexa Ray Joel.
