You Say It – We’ll Play It
September 17, 2021 10:08 amThis week we are going back to the 80’s and we want to know what you think of this golden oldie from Billy Joel?
According to SongFacts.com – the song is about Christie Brinkley. Kinda.
Billy Joel married the supermodel less than two years after this song came out. But he wasn’t even DATING her when he started writing the song. He was actually dating a DIFFERENT supermodel. Elle Macpherson.
Billy explained that when he and Elle broke up, and he started dating Christie Brinkley, he re-wrote the lyrics and by the time it was done, the song was about Christie.
What do YOU think of the song?
