Billy Joel acknowledges fan theory suggesting "Piano Man" characters Paul and Davy are gay.
Billy Joel has acknowledged a fan theory suggesting two of his "Piano Man" characters are gay.
The 1973 hit song, which tells the story of a bar's patrons through the eyes of a piano player, has never been a conventional pop hit, but has endured as one of Joel's most popular songs.
The song's third verse introduces listeners to Paul, a "real estate novelist," and Davy, who is "still in the Navy and probably will be for life."
Fans have speculated that the characters are gay and that the song is about a gay bar, a theory Joel found amusing during an interview with Willie Geist.
Joel, however, clarified that he never intended for these characters to be gay and that their relationships were never explicitly stated.
