Good points. I think 'Pressure' is actually Billy Joel attempting to ripoff Queen, but the metamorphosized Queen in the late 70's/80's. Imagine Freddy Mercury singing the words in Pressure, and you'll hear Joel trying to sound like him. The synth part in that song played on a piano would sound distinctly classical as well, which was always a big theme in Queen's and Mercury's style.
