He might disagree with you on that. He always considered /Scenes at an Italian Restaurant/ to be his best work, and was a bit disappointed audiences didn't appreciate it the same way
“pretty faces telling pretty lies” is the status quo nowadays (it’s getting worse through social media)….that’s why lots of people choose to stay single (a lot of relationships are just smoke and mirrors).
I'd be honored if some Billy Joel fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of his classics HONESTY and VIENNA on my YT in tribute to the master of lyricism & composition. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Peace & stay safe.
but we ARE the world .....we departed God, and became our own gods.....until we get back to God and kill false idols like technology which killed humanity, the world won't change
I put a quote on FB recently, and credited "the Great American Philosopher, Billy Joel..." It was a quote from Shades of Grey... "Now with the wisdom of years I try to reason things out And the only people I fear are those who never have doubts Save us all from arrogant men, and all the causes they're for I won't be righteous again, I'm not that sure anymore Shades of grey are all that I find When I look to the enemy line There ain't no rainbows shining on me Shades of grey are the colors I see."

Billy Joel is incredibly talented. All his songs are so meaningful and he sings them so beautifully. It's June 2023 and I'm listening to him at 4.28am and loving every minute of it.
Сегодня 19 июля и я весь вечер напевала эту песню, а сейчас в ночи включила и пою вместе с ним. Она прекрасна!!! Спасибо, Билли. А кто помнит откуда фраза "У Билли Джоела концерты в декабре"...?
you have the right taste, dear young one....keep listening to songs of old because it will be far better for your young soul and contribute to a far better future because of you and your heart.
Honesty -- Lyrics If you search for tenderness It isn't hard to find. You can have the love you need to live. But if you look for truthfulness You might just as well be blind. It always seems to be so hard to give. Honesty is such a lonely word. Everyone is so untrue. Honesty is hardly ever heard. And mostly what I need from you. I can always find someone To say they sympathize. If I wear my heart out on my sleeve. But I don't want some pretty face To tell me pretty lies. All I want is someone to believe. Honesty is such a lonely word. Everyone is so untrue. Honesty is hardly ever heard. And mostly what I need from you. I can find a lover. I can find a friend. I can have security until the bitter end. Anyone can comfort me With promises again. I know, I know. When I'm deep inside of me Don't be too concerned. I won't ask for nothin' while I'm gone. But when I want sincerity Tell me where else can I turn. Because you're the one that I depend upon. Honesty is such a lonely word. Everyone is so untrue. Honesty is hardly ever heard. And mostly what I need from you
@@claertonarcoverde7053 You're very welcome! My pleasure! 😊 ... I love the lyrics to songs & enjoy reading (& singing! lol) along while it plays! Happy you enjoy them, too! ✌❤🎶
Hi, I'm Japanese. This is the most popular song of Billy among the japanese people. But I know this song is not prefered so much in other countries. I don't know why. I really love this song. I've come to know this song in early 90's. My heart was moved and tears ran down. Big thanks to Billy from Japan.
@@LC_music_studio Except Only the good die young. Not Roman Catholic anymore but I am shocked he made that song. If it was a blow against almost anything else all Hell would break loose! I guess open season on Christianity is now fair game in the country where Christianity is the very thing that made us the most blessed nation since the dawn of civilization! Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is Liberty.

This song turned me a Billy Joel 's fan. His voice, piano and emotion transmitted by this music is incredible, inspiration for a basic piano player like me.
Unfortunately this song rings so true for me. I'm 62 and on looking back over my life, Honesty was a rare thing. Billy Joel has the most beautiful voice and greatest songwriter too. He truly is a musical genius 🥰💯❤
He’s a great singer, spend my day listening to his song as it’s very impactful… I can say he’s among the best cos he’s talented… Have you been to his concerts before?
This song has taken a completely different meaning for me lately... Also realized how rare honesty is, though I wonder if I can be as honest as how I want others to be.
A few years ago I was listening to a collection of Billy's songs, and my daughter asked me who it was.., I was very pleased that she would have liked, especially this song, it transports me to my adolescence.., how time has passed, and today I find his message more extraordinary than yesterday 💯❤
This is one of those songs that even if you're a child you would appreciate it because the music is just so beautiful. If this was released in 1978, I was maybe 5-6 years old when I first heard this. I loved it then, I still love it now that I'm in my 50's.
"I don't want some pretty face to tell me pretty lies. All I want is someone to believe." I truly believe that if you relate to those lyrics, you understand life.

I first started listening to Billy Joel when I was 13 years old. Back then, I bought a Walkman and listened to cassette tapes on my way to and from school. Even now, when I listen to Billy Joel, it brings back vivid memories from that time. It's a cherished memory.
I am Japanese high school student. Today this song was used as a listening text in English class!! I felt great!! I’m not good at English but I love This song
Lol I listened this song on my english class as well ... Actually the teacher 5 minutes before leaving he used to play some music and he played this one :) I think it was 5 years ago
This song was the correct text for your English class.....This should be used all over the World....:) I am American and this song is The Best Medicine for most of the peoples sickness. :))
It's been 6 years passed since I met this song. I'm 22 years old living in Japan. My father used to play this song on his car when i was a high school student. Now, I love listening this song at my car on the way home... this,amazing.I must be a lucky girl to meet this song at this age! ビリージョエル最高!

+Laurylie Polito The words are so true and yet so inviting in our life. I love this song with much meaning more than you could ever have anyone to admit!
I was something around 10, when this song was released and I was singing along, understanding only a few words (I’m French). Now I know how deep is its meaning. Beautiful song..
La mélodie est magnifique et le texte aussi Et en plus l interprétation est fantastique un titre un tube même intemporel surtout en ce moment pour nous tous !!!!
To the person that reads this, I ask the Lord to bless them and their family, to cure them of every sickness and pain, to fill their emptiness with love joy and peace, to rebuke the enemy from their lives. " ASK JESUS TO COME INTO YOUR HEART AND SAVE YOU, AND TO FORGIVE YOU OF YOUR SINS, FOR WE GIVE THANKS AND GLORY TO THE LORD. IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS CHRIST AMEN!

This song is so sad it makes makes me cry i ask god to bring good people in my life ive tried so hard in my.life to meet good people so far ive only met the bad ones that have hurt me and broke my heart ❤️ I pray all the time to God maybe someday he'll listen I know he has all the problems of the world 🌍 so i will be patient Amen 🙏 dear God Amen 🙏
He didnt WRITE IT I DID .. "'' HONESTY"". TRUTH...TheLegend📀📀🕎 Masterpieces. LYRICs. Honesty he hasnt told yet. He stole took. And claimed my MASTERPIECEs as if HE WROTE THIS. ITS A LIE. I WROTE IT THE SONG IS MINE. EASILY. PROVEABLE. . INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. I.T. I HAVE THE BEST TEAM IN THE UNIVERSE.. THIEVEs steal. He is a thief
Can't decide if Honesty or Scenes From an Italian Restaurant is my favorite Billy Joel song. All I know is that they both are so good. Love the passion, conviction, sadness, and deep pain in which he sings this one.

After my 15 the year of marriage....we found ourselves wanting something different...I gave her some space...but she never truly wandered.....I on the other hand did branch out....this song reverbs my memory all over again ...fast forward to 2021...38 yrs later ....she has been diagnosed with cancer.....I love her..she has always been my Achilles heel....so much love and angst ..but still my girl...all through hell ....and forgiving the very small things to keep her closer now than ever before....this song represents that to me ....on a very personal level...
Hermosa y bella música. Yo estudié mi preuniversitario y toda mi carrera médica escuchando esta música....y me amanecía sin problemas. Hoy, a mis 60 años sigo escuchando tan igual como hace 40 años...... Que tal orquesta, que tales melodías...... Grande!!!!
Песня просто великолепная , сейчас таких и не напишут , когда первый раз слышал ее перевод с английского честно обалдел насколько она смысловая , ну а в исполнение Билла - шедевр вне всяких сомнений ...
Every once a generation, a great song melody is composed, lyrics are written that speak truth, and a performance is given that embodies the meaning of the song. Billy Joel did it all with this one song, a once-in-a-generation great song where everything came together at once. This defines the essence of Billy Joel.
My dad loved this song and i really miss him singing this. RIP Dad
The lost of a father is such a painful thing. I didn't felt that yet, but I am with you. ❤
I am so sorry for your lost
RIP.
Same here they are in a better place 🙏🏼❤️
I miss my Dad Miro too! They live in our hards and this music for ever ♥
This song is as true today in 2024 as it was when Billy released it in 1978. What a poet !
Et ce(s)tte voix 😮❤
1978 - I was 19 and this song was my classmates and friends favourite. Oh the memories.
And Jaak Joala sang Ausus on in eesti language 1981

This song with this band were Billy Joel's masterpiece.
He might disagree with you on that. He always considered /Scenes at an Italian Restaurant/ to be his best work, and was a bit disappointed audiences didn't appreciate it the same way

Honesty - word missing nowadays. Billy Joel was and is a prophet
Песня про меня... Спасибо, Билли!!!❤❤
“pretty faces telling pretty lies” is the status quo nowadays (it’s getting worse through social media)….that’s why lots of people choose to stay single (a lot of relationships are just smoke and mirrors).
Absolutely!
Don't give up guys, we are still many!
It was missing back when he wrote the song too. The only difference I see is now people lie to your face then smile then laugh.
This song is an eternal masterpiece.
Since I was a teenager... I just love it ❤

You could easily remove his name from the sentence and still be right.
Seriously???😮
Billy Joel IS THIS song!’n❤
Agreed
Why are you shouting?
Honestly still brings back memories in January 2024.... 😢
THANK you for sharing.
How bout in January 1978. We all remember every note

For me, it's 1978 to now, as strong as ever.
Brings back memories from Spring 1979 for me & most people around then
Who in August 2024? ...honesty is such a lonely word! Billy Joel is a great poet, deep, sensitive...

Billy Joel is more than a singer. He's a philosopher. His songs don't just sound good, they MEAN something.
I put a quote on FB recently, and credited "the Great American Philosopher, Billy Joel..." It was a quote from Shades of Grey... "Now with the wisdom of years I try to reason things out
And the only people I fear are those who never have doubts
Save us all from arrogant men, and all the causes they're for
I won't be righteous again, I'm not that sure anymore
Shades of grey are all that I find
When I look to the enemy line
There ain't no rainbows shining on me
Shades of grey are the colors I see."
I'd be honored if some Billy Joel fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of ALLENTOWN and VIENNA on my YT channel in tribute to the master of lyricism and composition. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Thanks and peace.

Honesty -- Lyrics
If you search for tenderness
It isn't hard to find.
You can have the love you need to live.
But if you look for truthfulness
You might just as well be blind.
It always seems to be so hard to give.
Honesty is such a lonely word.
Everyone is so untrue. Honesty is hardly ever heard.
And mostly what I need from you.
I can always find someone To say they sympathize.
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve.
But I don't want some pretty face To tell me pretty lies.
All I want is someone to believe.
Honesty is such a lonely word.
Everyone is so untrue. Honesty is hardly ever heard.
And mostly what I need from you.
I can find a lover.
I can find a friend.
I can have security until the bitter end.
Anyone can comfort me With promises again.
I know, I know.
When I'm deep inside of me Don't be too concerned.
I won't ask for nothin' while I'm gone.
But when I want sincerity Tell me where else can I turn.
Because you're the one that I depend upon.
Honesty is such a lonely word.
Everyone is so untrue. Honesty is hardly ever heard.
And mostly what I need from you

you mean he plays too fast? I don't understand
You are a moron
WHAT? Stop....
U guys who replied realized this was a play on the phrase "to be honest" right
vgfian
This song strikes from the heart of a man and brings tears to the eyes of a woman..
This song breaks my heart 💔
and Billy is the only person who can sing this song as it is supposed to be. Without his voice, it loses something.
Sooran Choi
i agree Sooran... nothing like it
I agree as well. Such a great, all around singer. Love the edge Billy gives to this song with his singing.
I agree
Sooran C aka
Mike Delgudice can sing it just as good as Billy.
Seriously, one of the greatest musicians of my lifetime. Talented AF!
He was so on point with this song. Honesty is seldom ever heard. This song goes with every generation and Era. Its a timeless song.
in the spirit we ------------- honest Y understanding .
He is brilliant beyond words. Amazing amount of great songs.

I can feel the pain and being lost and the need for truth and sincerity.
Agree, with no doubt
yes one of the best songs ever.
Me too!
There are a lot of lies in the world.
I think the only truth is that we were born into this world to feel that we truly love someone.
A few years ago I was listening to a collection of Billy's songs, and my daughter asked me who it was.., I was very pleased that she would have liked, especially this song, it transports me to my adolescence.., how time has passed, and today I find his message more extraordinary than yesterday 💯❤
This is one of those songs that even if you're a child you would appreciate it because the music is just so beautiful. If this was released in 1978, I was maybe 5-6 years old when I first heard this. I loved it then, I still love it now that I'm in my 50's.
Can we all agree that this song is immaculate. Still on my top this 2023
It was 1 of top hits of 1979
Such a beautiful and truthful song which has never grown old over my 56 years of life ! We love Billy so much!
Good morning 💥, how are you?
So you were 11 when this masterpiece came out
never grown olf over my 56 years either!
Don't compromise truth for what you think is peace and stay in love with Honesty at all times ❤️❤️. Amen?

Billy came with me through my teens, adulthood and now into my senior years. At this point it is not only incredible music but nostalgic.

Queen KING Ganbare 👏🏻
Yorrito Kun thank you!!you too!
Lol I listened this song on my english class as well ... Actually the teacher 5 minutes before leaving he used to play some music and he played this one :)
I think it was 5 years ago
高校で、この曲広められてるんですね。。。すごく好きな曲なので、自分の世代の人々にこの曲が広まってると聞くと嬉しいですっ!
This song was the correct text for your English class.....This should be used all over the World....:) I am American and this song is The Best Medicine for most of the peoples sickness. :))
It's been 6 years passed since I met this song. I'm 22 years old living in Japan. My father used to play this song on his car when i was a high school student. Now, I love listening this song at my car on the way home... this,amazing.I must be a lucky girl to meet this song at this age!
ビリージョエル最高!
It's 2022 now and this song is still a masterpiece... And probably will be forever
Yes. 🇮🇹
Ithink so too, from Japan.(😊)
Definitely I'm a forever fan!
@@babycaykz Just!!!
I think honestly is the masterpiece it´s find to find it still ourselves
Thank God for his SONG BY BILLY JOEL...GREAT & GREAT....
This song will continue to shine forever.
If you search for tenderness
It isn't hard to find
You can have the love you need to live
But if you look for truthfulness
You might just as well be blind
It always seems to be so hard to give
Honesty is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue
Honesty is hardly ever heard
And mostly what I need from you
I can always find someone
To say they sympathize
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve
But I don't want some pretty face
To tell me pretty lies
All I want is someone to believe
Honesty is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue
Honesty is hardly ever heard
And mostly what I need from you
I can find a lover
I can find a friend
I can have security
Until the bitter end
Anyone can comfort me
With promises again
I know, I know
When I'm deep inside of me
Don't be too concerned
I won't ask for nothin' while I'm gone
But when I want sincerity
Tell me where else can I turn
Cause you're the one that I depend upon
Honesty is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue
Honesty is hardly ever heard
And mostly what I need from you
+Laurylie Polito The words are so true and yet so inviting in our life. I love this song with much meaning more than you could ever have anyone to admit!
+Laurylie Polito WOW COOL WE WATCHED THE SAME VIDEO
i think its saying. dont bother. asking for honesty because you will get it or you wont but it wont be for the asking
+Carl Grimes what you mean?
Tommy Sanchez I think he thinks the song says don't ask me why...
I was something around 10, when this song was released and I was singing along, understanding only a few words (I’m French). Now I know how deep is its meaning. Beautiful song..
The lyrics are so meaningful and remain true especially today. This song has always had a great impact on me
The lyrics do hit deep
Que saudade da minha juventude, linda música
@@MariaSocorro-rn2gq your music youth music was so real
孤独と怒りと不安がごちゃ混ぜになったような切なさを、この頃のビリージョエルには感じました。
とっても好きでした。もう40年以上前になるんですね。当時は英語の歌詞の意味があまり分かりませんでしたが、
ちゃんと伝わっていましたよ。とってもいい曲を有難う。今でも大好きな曲です。
你说的对
In a plague of a world wide infestation of narcissism this song is more true than ever.
Sadly this is true. Narcissism is considered a way of life nowadays by so many, a form of self steem, the ultimate value. Nothing more untrue.
wise words man
I was thinking exactly the same.
We sure could use a Lot of Honesty These Days ! Thanks , Billy Joel , Beautifully Done !

19歳の時に初めて歌詞を覚えた洋楽の曲です
いつまでも色褪せない曲ですね
曲は知っていたんですが
40代も後半になりこの曲がじんわりじんわり人生に深みを与えてくれています
ビリーありがとう
La mélodie est magnifique et le texte aussi
Et en plus l interprétation est fantastique un titre un tube même intemporel surtout en ce moment pour nous tous !!!!
To the person that reads this, I ask the Lord to bless them and their family, to cure them of every sickness and pain, to fill their emptiness with love joy and peace, to rebuke the enemy from their lives. " ASK JESUS TO COME INTO YOUR HEART AND SAVE YOU, AND TO FORGIVE YOU OF YOUR SINS, FOR WE GIVE THANKS AND GLORY TO THE LORD. IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS CHRIST AMEN!
Amém
Honesty is such a lonely word / everyone is so untrue........now more than ever.
いつ聞いても
胸がキューンってなる。
すごく惹きつける
綺麗な曲だよね!
誠実、誠実でありつづけたいよね!
I can’t figure out what you are saying but I agree with you 😎😂

Quando vc parar de esperar em "deus"e buscar sua força interior e força de vontade, você consegue tudo, inclusive superar as decepções
Billy's songwriting is so amazing. The quality of his vocal performance is honesty in it's purest form.
Honesty... The World needs it . Masterpiece 2023.
keep looking
Haha
im here x
The raw emotion in his voice and the soulful melody speak volumes about the complexities of relationships and the courage it takes to be truly honest.
19歳日本人です。
56歳の母親がこの曲を教えてくれました。大好きです
최고다 진짜.. 최고에요 최고 .... 힘든시절 공장에서 일할때 낡은 라디오로 잡음 소리와 함께 들었던 추억속의 베스트 팝송... 가사를 몰라도 감동했던 기억이 납니다..
this is more of a blues song, not a pop song. he’s describing what happened in a relationship to him.
Music transcends langauage
Since I was a child, this song stuck with me, well into my adult years, and now its meaning is more prevalent than ever. Billy Joel is a genius. x
He didnt WRITE IT I DID ..
"'' HONESTY"". TRUTH...TheLegend📀📀🕎
Masterpieces. LYRICs. Honesty he hasnt told yet. He stole took. And claimed my
MASTERPIECEs as if HE WROTE THIS. ITS A LIE. I WROTE IT THE SONG IS MINE. EASILY. PROVEABLE. . INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY. I.T.
I HAVE THE BEST TEAM IN THE UNIVERSE.. THIEVEs steal. He is a thief
Lawsuit is in Progress all is being exposed
Anyone who says that Billy Joel is a genius is a friend of mine. Best singer songwriter ever 😂❤
My favorite Billy Joel song.
Can't decide if Honesty or Scenes From an Italian Restaurant is my favorite Billy Joel song. All I know is that they both are so good. Love the passion, conviction, sadness, and deep pain in which he sings this one.
How do you choose?
@@babycaykz It's not easy! :)
@leftyvangogh4102 I know I love them all lol 😆 true talent like Elton john
One of the most beautiful songs EVER!
Billy Joel must be an extraterrestrial.... no human being could write something so spectacular.

I like the old English songs
The old songs the best!!
Котик Шоу On you sweetheart, keep learning its the best medicine.
Honesty is the best policey.
There are good new songs they're just harder to find
Could you tell your government to re-communize so we can start making good music again?
We're running out of ideas for fixing pop music.
Old songs are easy to listen and calm at best. The music, the lyrics altogether synchronise perfectly
Listening in June 2020, in quarantine, I love this song god

私の中学校の時の英語の先生がこの曲を授業中に流していて、時々懐かしさを求めてこの曲をききたくなるんだよね。この曲すごいセンスがあって、レトロな雰囲気がたまらない。
その英語の先生は、ただものではありませんね。英語を教える真髄を心得ていらっしゃる。そして選曲が最高です。
歌詞がとても素晴らしい。
誠実さの意味を考えさせられる。
これまでも、これからも、色褪せない楽曲である。
그렇쵸!!♡♡♡
もう40年以上前の曲なのに色褪せない。
Klkll
Sim! Bela canção!
I admire Billy. His voice is so warm and emotive. Honesty is a great song. I love it.
Such an expressive versatile voice
Such deep lyrics that touch the inner man, the one we don't talk about.
walang kamatayan kanta sakalam billy joel
One of the best songs ever !
中学生の時、買ったアルバム。宝物だったはずが、いつのまにか実家から消えていた。姉貴が自宅に持って行ったと判ったのも既に30数年前。今では、このアルバムを社会人になって悩んでいる息子に聴かせたい今日この頃です。
その気持ち、よくわかります!

Listening to this beautiful song in Feb 2019.... who else is here.
Yeah me right now
Yes
Honesty, I am still so fond of this song
Yes yes
One of my favorites. Because there is no honesty left in this world!!
This Song Is a masterpiece, one of the most beautiful I ever heard

And that's a fact
This is a beautiful song just as good as imagine by John Lennon.

Truthful lyrics it's so powerful. Whoever wrote this, he is an Angel. Voice so right for this beautiful song.
いつ聴いても心を癒されます。自分自身を見つめ直す曲です。
なにこのかっこいい曲
すごいすきなんだけど
After my 15 the year of marriage....we found ourselves wanting something different...I gave her some space...but she never truly wandered.....I on the other hand did branch out....this song reverbs my memory all over again ...fast forward to 2021...38 yrs later ....she has been diagnosed with cancer.....I love her..she has always been my Achilles heel....so much love and angst ..but still my girl...all through hell ....and forgiving the very small things to keep her closer now than ever before....this song represents that to me ....on a very personal level...
My prayers are with you.It takes a strong man to admit when things are beyond your control and yet, you carry on.Blessings.
She now has cancer ...a very aggressive one...my hopes she lives through it....and still I'm by her side ...she's my love ..and my life....
@@jamesw.scarber4924 how very painful realization is, when it's seemingly too late... keep us posted
Only legends are here listening to this song 🎶 in 2024
Amen legend!!!
Underrated song. This is one of most amazing songs I've ever heard.
few beings understand it that is Y its underrated honestY
Hermosa y bella música. Yo estudié mi preuniversitario y toda mi carrera médica escuchando esta música....y me amanecía sin problemas. Hoy, a mis 60 años sigo escuchando tan igual como hace 40 años...... Que tal orquesta, que tales melodías...... Grande!!!!
Opino igual!
A life well lived.

Песня просто великолепная , сейчас таких и не напишут , когда первый раз слышал ее перевод с английского честно обалдел насколько она смысловая , ну а в исполнение Билла - шедевр вне всяких сомнений ...
In 2021, we need this song more than ever!
Sad thing is, it will remain just a song. Reality never seems to compare.
Absolutely! World is not getting smaller!
Melissa thank you so much how long have you been my fan?
Melissa, for sure.
He’s a great singer and most of it a talented one
Not only a great singer, but also outstanding on piano and keyboard, and the band and the arrangements are top notch!

Also his piano SOUND is usually fantastic too. (as it is in this song)

Every once a generation, a great song melody is composed, lyrics are written that speak truth, and a performance is given that embodies the meaning of the song. Billy Joel did it all with this one song, a once-in-a-generation great song where everything came together at once. This defines the essence of Billy Joel.
I'm still listening March 2019. Music is timeless
It's rather amazing really
and cry😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Real music is timeless. ❤

Billy Joel is a fusion of Silvestre Stallone and Paul McCartney
Absolutely
You read my mind
🤭🤷
Yes
Yeah, if Sylvester Stallone was comparable to Billy Joel Lol. But I hear ya.
素晴らしい楽曲🎵
