Joel's anecdote for this song when he played it live was that as he was driving across the states to go record La De Da, a storm hit and he had to spend the night in a cheap hotel with paper thin walls. He heard the woman in the room next to him on the phone with her boyfriend, trying to convince him that she wasn't cheating on him. He gave them names (Nina and Albert) and wrote this song about them.
Mind you, the story was much more interesting when Joel told it because, well, he's Joel Plaskett.
