"My Old Piano" is a song by American R&B singer Diana Ross. It was written and produced by Chic members Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards for Ross's self-titled eleventh studio album (1980). In it, Ross sings about the joy of playing a piano, describing it as if it were a person. The song was released on September 19, 1980 as the album's third and final single by Motown Records in the United States, and the second single elsewhere. In an accompanying music video, Ross appears performing the song in an apartment with an old piano.[2]
Unlike previous singles "Upside Down" and "I'm Coming Out", "My Old Piano" was not as successful in the United States, however, it was a commercial success in Europe, particularly in the United Kingdom, where it was a Top 5 hit and earned her a British Phonographic Industry (BPI) silver disc award for sales in excess of 250,000 copies.
