Podcast: Bill and Frank’s Guilt-Free Pleasures
Episode: Billy Joel: "Uptown Girl" (A song for us downtown guys)
Description: We just cannot get enough of Billy Joel's "Uptown Girl." From the message that the common person has a shot at the seeming unattainable other to the infectious early 1960s throwback vibes, we are all in! We walk through a brief history of Billy Joel and the story behind the song (it involves Elle MacPherson, Christie Brinkley, and Whitney Houston!). We also give a detailed analysis of the tune itself in downtown guy terms. And we discuss the timeless video that is totally of its time!
