The story I heard was that this song almost didn't get: a) released as a single , or b) included on the record at all. Linda Ronstadt was working down the hall, and was asked to give her opinion, and she thought it was a smash. Just what I heard...
This is good, but he is frenetic, The way it is played on the actual hit is better, its rhythm is relaxed and real to the words and melody. Phil Woods sax solo on the hit is magnificient.
Like what Billy would say. "Ramones Bossa Nova". Joel Didn't like the Bossa Nova Style that Phil Ramone Had Elected. It gives us an Idea of what Billy originally wanted.
