:When this song came out, a woman I worked with in Memphis, TN claimed she was the inspiration for it. Her name was Carol; I don't remember her last name. She knew one of the song writers and was interviewed on a couple of local radio stations. I'm usually pretty skeptical about stuff like this (people claim all kinds of things), but I didn't have any trouble believing her: I swear, she was the spitting image of Bette Davis.

Covers

Am I the only one who remembers a mid 90's video of a cover of this? It played on MTV at least in Europe and it was pop. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.231.130.23 (talk) 12:46, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I seem to recall Bonnie Tyler doing a version of this too, strange its not mentioned anywhere in the article??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.160.197.14 (talk) 13:41, 9 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bette Davis Eyes?

It could be me, but I never understood what it meant to have "Bette Davis eyes". I have wondered about this for a long time. Daniel Sparkman (talk) 12:00, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
