Honesty Lyrics
beautiful absolutely beautiful
"I can always find someone To say they sympathize If I wear my heart out on my sleeve"
best line ever. so many people do exactly what he says right here and don't even realize it!!!!
This song is amazing. I heard a live version of this song first, and I thought it was great, but hen I heard the studio version, and it just blew me away. Billy's voice in this one is actually a bit relaxing.
Sucha true song. Honesty IS very hard to find.
One of the best songs by any artist, simply superb!
I've come across many comments all over this site, in which the poster says "this or that is my favourite song ever" and you sympathize a bit: "Ah, not bad at all, right" But I find myself now at the moment I must confess: the first ten notes of this song are -to me- the open doors to heaven. Really. So much. Good, great, marvellous are plain dirty rags on the holy skin of a goddess. Then: This is my favourite song ever.
I love the message. everyone needs a little honesty.
yeah buddy.
I've always loved this song. Joel is so talented. And tonight this song is perfect...I finally learned the truth. Can't say I don't wish I was better looking, but I know for sure that I am too good for such a superficial man.
Oh yes you did. And that's fine. It was at least honest, and honesty's something you're not too comfortable with. Even when the truth is painful it is better than a lie. What you said is already taped to my laptop as a reminder. I'll never forget it.

One of Joel's best and he's had plenty of worthy hits. Unfortunately honesty is seldom heard with some. And others don't wish to hear it. People who care say the difficult words if they have hope that another will find herself/himself worthy and begin to make better choices. I guess that's why some utter "b*tch" under their breath at me;)
An excellent song. Joel has always known how to write incredibly good tracks.

Joel has so many hits over the decades while he's been performing. When first introduced to his music by my sister's boyfriend (who secretly bought me Joel's first album and told me not to tell my sister where I got it). I fell in love with Joel immediately. Was priviledged to have a mother who allowed me to see Joel in concert when I was in high school. (My father was kept in the dark as to my whereabouts.) Joel and his piano filled the stage with blue lighting shining all around. It was glorious! This song is one of his best, in my opinion. The lyrics are simple and ring true.
"Honesty is such a lonely word but everyone is so untrue." "Honesty is hardly ever heard. And mostly what I need from you."
