BillyJoel and Uptown Girl

Here is another favorite video of mine. Uptown Girl by Billy Joel. Of course the woman playing the uptown girl is his then wife Christie Brinkly. The director of this was very good. Perhaps better then the ones I have put up here before. While some of them took up to a half hour to tell the story and play the music, this video seems to tell all of that in less then 4 minutes. The director had previously directed commercials and knew that with a music video sometimes the lyrics of the song can carry the story.
