I Bet She Never Had a Backstreet Guy

Depending upon who you believe, today's Billy Joel song was inspired by then girlfriend, super model Elle Macpherson, or future wife super model Christie Brinkley, or inspired by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. I think a combination of all three is a nice way to tidy it up. Whatever the case, that alone ought to let you know what a stud Billy Joel was back in the 80's - he went from Elle to Christie! Probably two of the hottest women of the 80's, and Billy Joel was at one time with both. Now, he's with neither, and I'm not sure or not if he'd settle again for an "Uptown Girl"...
