How is he going to sing "I Know Him So Well" - by himself or as a duet? It's a great song, but...
I think I will have to wash my mind out after trying to imagine him singing "Uptown Girl", though. I can't think of too many songs that are a worse match! There are lots of other great Billy Joel songs he could cover - "The Longest Time" from the same album seems much better suited if he wants upbeat, and I think he could belt out "Piano Man" pretty well.
