Talk:Uptown Girl

message: This page is supposed to be about the BILLY JOEL song, the "Westlife version" should get it's own page, or be put under "notable covers."  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.228.231.176 (talk) 01:52, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Billy Joel ONLY

message: Were there any more versions of the opening other than MTV and Friday Night Videos?  I know of these versions personally since I have the actual tapes to document. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.106.39.80 (talk) 09:18, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:9UptownGirl2.jpg

message: Is this the line "When my ship comes it?"
While that line is in Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice, I'll bet 99% of the people use that line are not referencing the Merchant of Venice. . . 
What supports that Merchant of Venice was his source for the line, and that he had not heard the line in daily conversation?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.39.144.40 (talk) 08:20, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Joel makes reference to Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice in the song.  

message: Billy first thought of the song when he surrounded by Christie Brinkley, Elle Macpherson, and Whitney Houston
The text suggests Claudia Schaffer appeared in the Joel video. Wasn’t it Christie Brinkley as per the photo? Claudia Schaffer was in the Westlife video, wasn’t she?

thread_title:  Inspiration for the song 

message: This song has song interesting stuff going on in the song. The song is mainly in the key of E Major; however, the pre-chorus is in C Major, the chorus is in A Major, and the bridge is in b minor. Because Joel said that the song was inspired by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons’ music, it uses these interesting key changes that we don’t see in today’s pop music anymore. I I think that it’d be useful to include a composition section in the article to discuss the song’s key changes. KevinML (talk) 10:41, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
