Get your point, she does say 'You probably think this song is about you' so it wasn't for that person.....maybe it was for the three Warren Beatty, James Taylor and Bob Dylan and they had to work it out for themselves, never thought of that before, good question.

I've heard that she admitted once that is was Warren Beatty she was singing about, but who really knows but her?

Allegedly Warren Beatty. She had a fling with him but couldn't compete with his love of himself. And loads of other women of course!
