Police were called in a quiet seaside town after he was spotted freewheelin' down the street and apparently acting suspiciously. A 22-year-old female officer demanded to see his identification papers.

I only caught the last five seconds of the question so no idea about anything leading up to it.  The question was: "A 2007 book about misheard music lyrics, 'Hold Me Closer, Tony Danza' has a title that references a hit song by whom?"  The choices were Billy Joel, Paul Simon, Elton John and Bruce Springsteen.  The contestant answered it correctly with Elton John.
