UPTOWN GIRL (by Bill Joel: An Innocent Man)

SUMMARY:                         RUNNING TIME: 3:17 Min.

Released on Billy Joel’s 1983 album, An Innocent Man, this upbeat track remains synonymous with Joel’s romance and subsequent 10-year marriage to Christie Brinkley.  Ironically, at the time of its writing, the song actually meant to homage Joel’s then-romantic relationship with model Elle Macpherson (before he met Brinkley).

REVIEW:

It’s understandable why “Uptown Girl” is one of Billy Joel’s signature tunes since he’s definitely on his game.  Every element of this appealing tune is right where it should be.  For any 80’s pop playlist, this track is recommended.
