What's up with this song? She says, "You probably think this song is about you," implying it isn't about him. But it actually is about him!

    I always thought it was because HE thinks he is "all that" ... but he really isn't.
    So HE thinks the song is about all the great thing he is ... but it's really saying he's a fool for believing that.

    Interesting. The song has been around for close to 50 years, and this question has bothered me on and off almost that whole time.

    I remember a few decades ago she had a contest. I can't remember what it was, but the winner was told who the song was about.

    She has admitted the song is about Warren Beatty.  Speculation abounds there are two more ex boyfriends who fit the bill though. This post was edited by Thriftymaid at June 7, 2022 6:13 AM MDT

      Imagine what it would be like in your own life if a woman or women who knew you dedicated that song to you! Lol!
