Billy Joel stated in an interview that this song was about Mick Jaggers wife at the time. Joel said that he wrote the song for Jagger. If you listen you can hear Joel doing a Jagger performance.
What's really amazing to me is that I think Billy wrote this song about his wife, at the time. I can't imagine what that conversation was like: "Hey honey, I wrote a song about you. It goes like this..."
Actually, the song was written about Bianca Jagger. A Nicaraguan model who married Mick Jagger in the 70's. Billy Joel confirmed it in an interview on Howard Stern
thi reminds me of my step brother, he is so full of himself we watched this show about extreme marksmen on history or military channel and he said he could shoot a target over a mile away with a sniper rifle without a sniper rifle and without training and that what the guys in the army was easy and took no skill. hes 19
let me refrase that he said he could shoot a target over a mile away WITH a sniper rifle but without a spotter, on somewhat windy day. like I said he is so full of himself.
@builder802 Perhaps it reminds you of someone who brags a lot, but Billy Joel didn't write this song for someone he didn't like. He actually wrote this song for himself.
Thank you Sir Paul McCartney for writing this!!!
