Beyonce - Honesty

[MissMaggieLicious]

wow this is my first time to hear this song and it remind me Jessica Simpson When You Told Me You Loved Me , the music background so alike. both are so good!

[Breyerobsessed27]

Everybody knows this was actually a Billy Joel song? I prefer his, but I love the way she modernised it for the current generation to love. :D

[sweetsbaby180]

umm・・・・good job

[422524candle]

♪♫•*¨*•.¸¸♥¸¸.•*¨*•♫♪

Honesty is such a lonely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is hardly ever heard

And mostly what I need from you

♪♫•*¨*•.¸¸♥¸¸.•*¨*•♫♪

[YuhCraveDes]

honestly.. beyonce does take songs tht aren't hers & she does undergo lawsuits.. but her team is so tight tht u wouldn't know the real deal behind whats going on.. she doesn't write all her own music either.. but again her team is soo tight they pay ppl off 2 stay hush hush about it.. It's the ugly truth yet she can PULL it off because she's gr8 in wht she does.. Trust & believe I'm no hater i just know ppl in the right places tht know the game... ;)

[deezxc]

It's a billy joel COVER. NOT STEALING

[BrunaDeIguape]

Gosto dessa música!

Beyoncé minha DIVA <3

[TheTwinkiecakes]

i like it

[salizarrr]

I like this song because of the way that she sings it

[youarelikepoison]

Isn't this a cover from Billy Joel?

[metalshadowmario4]

@youarelikepoison Yes it is.

[littleguurrl]

Hmmm... Billy Joel is WAY better. More feeling. Perhaps because he wrote it.

[handful808]

@littleguurrl as talented as beyonce is how come shes always taking someones song? its okay to sing someones song everybody does it but she makes a habit out of it and its annoying. thats why a lot of the times shes always getting sued. smfh this chick is nuts but she is a damn good singer but she isnt original. she needs to come up with some original material so she can put her name on it and claim it as her own.

[bookshika]

@handful808 BITCH SHE IS NOT STEALING PPLS SONGS Y OU FUCKIN HATERS JUST JEALOUS I THOUGHT U WAS A GIRL AT FIRST BUT I SEE U A UGLY ASS BITCH NIGGA WHO MAD CAUSE U COULD NEVA PULL A CHICK LIKE ME OR BEYONCE CAUSE U UGLY AS FUCK LMAO EWWWW U SO DAM UGLY BIG WATER JUG HEAD BITCH DAM I SAW UR FACE AND BUSTED OUT LAUGHIN SO HARD RAOTFLMAO DAM THIS HAD BEEN THE LAUGH OF MY NIGHT WOW

[handful808]

@bookshika lmaooooooooooooo your funny.

[tousamis]

such a disaster, nothing can compare to Billy Joel here ! she has not even an emotion ! she seems to sing the yellow pages !

[KGCJR1]

@tousamis she sounds like she is on an anti depressant.

[tousamis]

@KGCJR1

you're right, too bad cause i'm sure she could have make much better with more work and passion.

[SecretService80]

Beyonce...I'm happy for you, Im'a let you finish, but Billy Joel had the best version of all time...of all time!

Sorry, honey. You're pretty and all, but you ain't got shit on the PIANO MAN!

[fatbabiess]

there is no passion in this what so ever. only billy can sing this right. shes singing someone else's words and feelings. no passion, no meaning, just a nice voice. GO BILLY!

[MrTmy82]

@fatbabiess AMEN

[scris467]

Sorry Billy Joel fans, but this sounds sooooo much better when Beyonce sings it. It does not matter who's song it is originally; whoever sings it better is the winner...and in this case, it's definitely Beyonce

[wiseguy1108]

@scris467 But she doesn't have the same passion or emotion to sing this song. Billy Joel is way better

[coreythomas862009]

I prefer the Billy Joel version, but this is still very good. Surprisingly good actually.

[jajoju1]

She's really good, but how can someone say she's better than Billy Joel???First, it's Billy Joel's song and second, noone is better than Billy Joel :-) Just kidding, but the original is everytime the best, every next cover is just a cover...

[CaramelV85]

@jajoju1 I've gotta agree with you, I normally like originals best. This is nice but joel gives it more feeling. But hey there are a few covers that are a bit better than the original, whitney' remake of all the man I need originally by Luther is one of them :-)

[tam1234hk]

better than I tought....but not better than Billy joel

[chido96sk]

i love beyonce

[futureboy111]

She does a nice job, but better than Billy Joel? No way. It shows how timeless his music is, though.

[PeterBluth]

Phenomnal choice, Ms. Knowles and a wonderful performance. Admittedly, I'm a huge Billy Joel fan but this was a great cover.

[HectorTime1963]

@gofmnful she's very Wrong!!

[vq1015]

素敵です。

[eyefanatic]

Hmmm. . .Not interested. I prefer Billy Joel.

[pritnice]

@eyefanatic To be Honest (!?) Beyonce got a one wonderful voice... Thou this song is not made for her. Sadly it´s thing that one can hear..

[HectorTime1963]

@eyefanatic exactly!!

[Midsomerlover]

Disgusting computerbeats fuck up this song. Nothing to do with Rihanna's perfect voice. But no matter how many times they try to cover this, they won't ever get near Billy.

[MrBlueSwede]

@Midsomerlover This is beyonce, dude. But yeah, this doesn't come near Billy.

[ALEJANDRA2249]

linda la version

de beyonce ta buena me gusta mas x billy joel obvio

[AaliyahDawnTEAM]

im obsessed with this song!!! love it wonder why no one uses the low notes in here

[kuixx]

[darriezel]

[studioflip]

Honsety, I think Billy Joel is better

[Iceboylyrics]

This from the Love Destiny Album only released in Japan on June 2008. Beyonce really killed this.

[kymheartschris]

ilove anything she does so good song

[whateverokayy]

sorry, but billy joel ftw. <3

[chtemtoi]

honesty....you dont' even know the meaning of it!

COWARD!!!!

[JangEunSeok]

Honesty~ Such a lonely word!

[abadiola9]

this is a spanish song premformed by B. omg shes awesome!!

[AdyMiles]

No, LISTEN to Billy Joel. It's definitely LOVELY

[mackykayla]

i love this song

[shakiz222]

Her voice is so beautiful, amazing and flawless!! :D

I love her so much!!!

[lokyinrain]

Amazing song!!Much much better than Billy Joel...The mood is great!!

[thamer0594]

I think Be should mostly do UPBEAT songs and bring out Sasha Fierce more. Songs similar to "Flaws and All" should've been on the album - most of her "I Am..." songs sounded too pop-ish. Now this song I don't like as a true Beyonce fan.

[95SommerSkye]

a true beyonce fan lovs her songs and lets her grow as an artist and be herself

[PJDooWop]

She does a nice rendition.. This is one of her better performances (in my opinion). The mix down is a little bit of a mess though.. Is this leaked version? It sounds like it wasn't finished at this point. Kind of reminds me of a late 90's Destiny's Child and Darkchild record. This would probably have been a big hit if it were put out back then

[SplizzMusic]

definitely a great song, but the original version is better.. because it was actually original when billy joel did it lol

[sevenyi]

This song is awesome!

[0oNiicoleo0]

it was just today when i realised it's not a original song. of course, it's billy joel's.

[wadiebayernfan31]

awesome..

[MsBubi85]

wonderful

[166Anna]

Her voice is so wonderful, I hope she sang this kind of song more...

[sokoladas25]

..unfortunately, the song tells the truth of our life and this truth is actually so close to me..

[bluesky012088]

I'm a listen to first time so Beautiful song and I Love that song ^^

[BeyoncesBoy23]

beautiful song

[ur1234562001]

Nice version of Billy Joel.!!

[doggiedim]

who's the real singer of this song? thanks.

[bluesky012088]

singer name is Byonce and song name is Honesty ^^

[darriezel]

i hate beyonce's slow songz......well i love them but they make me cry cause the 1 with the most meaning and emotionz

[22TerrellOwens81]

thuis isnt beyonces song

[darriezel]

she remade it..........im not a retard a true fan like me alwayz knowz!!!!even though she aint write it she put emotion into it which makes me love it and gives me goosebumpz

[darriezel]

[BeYAWNsay]

BEYONCE SUCKS

[amandablasques]

Ohhh gosh!

Everyhting Bey sings is great afterwards!

:D

I LOVE HER!

[tocinote994]

Her version is beautiful, no denying. I hear the auto tune like in most songs of today. Billy's version has the "real" sound and feeling and it's so powerfu. Props to Beyonce for giving props to Billy.

[xBEYONCExSASHAx]

dont leave ur bullshit on THE QUEEN OF R&B's video

[Jahrass7]

[Hazel9600]

[zawa817]

But,it is very good,too!!

[hiphopSara]

you can find this song and other rare ones on ebay. theres a mixed cd just search beyonce new songs

[WolverhamptonsTalent]

this doesn't work. she sings it all wrong

[lollipop2992]

i love this song, i love it even more now that beyonce did it

[efronmikelovescassi]

is this song included in sasha fierce album???

[MiztaBeyonceHimself]

no it isnt

[dbaby61320]

it will be in the platinum edition. that's gonna be released in like september or november, idk for sure.

[dasilvaaa7]

ya`r right

[blured]

what album this one include?

[OtilioGuerra]

Oh My God. Everyone Copies Billy Joel. Barry White, Diana Krall, Barbra Strisand, etc.

[cjuneau1]

I passionately dislike this version. The music is very annoying.

[jessiiiLouiseClark]

ryeowooks version is better :) but this version is nice

[MSnoobiest]

LOL haha super junior <3 I thought this song is new but you commented on this a year ago

[krabhole]

i absoloutely love this song. it deffinately speaks about me alot

[WolverhamptonsTalent]

it's by Billy Joel. almost everyone assumes he says "Honesty is such a lonely word" but he doesn't, he actually sings "LOVELY"

[bookshika]

Honesty is such a lovely word

Everyone is so untrue

Honesty is hardly ever heard

And mostly what I need from you/////////////////

how in the hell do the word lovely go wit dis song u dnt knw wat \the fuck u talkin bout dumbass u jus wanna be so fuckin smart u dumb bitch

[AdyMiles]

you are TOTALLY WRONG

the original lyrics AND song by BILLY JOEL clearly say LOVELY not LONELY

and, btw, your language is pathetic

end of discussion

[bookshika]

why dont you go look up the fuckin lyrics and the song and tell me does it look like it says honesty is such a lovely word besides how would dat go wit the song dat wouldnt even make since u dumb bitch

[AdyMiles]

r u for real? you sound like a fictional dumbass character from a bad movie

[bookshika]

wateva bitch u jus wanna be so fuckin smart and think u knw every fuckin thing but you dont u dirty ass bitch go fuck ur self and lookin how u look u shouldnt try to talk about nobody u messy muthafucka

[bookshika]

WOW!!! dat racist side dun came out mmm dat is so sad and how do u knw wat i sound like and u cant hear me u dumb ass bitch go get u some pussy and leave dat dick alone

[PopCulture20]

@bookshika why don't YOU GET A LIFE JACKASS!!!!!

[DrKeLsO420]

I thought she did great and I love the original and dont care for beyonce.

[sweet798sweet]

I don't care who may disagree, but Billy Joel's version is way better because it has way more feeling to it unlike this version. But I still love Beyonce.

[lkforlife101]

Eltonator, every1 is for money now. if Billy Joe wasn't for money as you say, then let him just lock himself in his room and just sing songs to himself, he wouldnt have been popular now then if hes not 4 money. Every1 should have their voice heard, and if its for money then so be it. Post a vid on youtube lets c how well u do. Beyonce is one of the best LIVE singerZ I have ever seen.

[eltonator]

I actually agree with your comment, IKforlife101. I think I was being a bit ignorant, there.

[lkforlife101]

Thanks for understanding :]

[ENGLANDNEWENGLAND007]

This Was Written By Billy Joel

[rolajo31]

I love this song!!! I'm going to buy a CD of this!!!

[teyttie]

Love this song! But it's just demo :(

[1LoveTheBeach]

Her voice is so pretty! love the song!

[malaika12345]

loving this song

[networkrhino]

beautful song

[Bleyonce]

i adore her

[mxkn0wles]

THE BEST RENDITION... LOVE IT

[fischii123]

GREAT SONG!

[urlijah]

ALSO WISHING ON A STAR.......

[mxkn0wles]

WOW!!! This is the BEST rendition of HONESTY!!! I LUV IT!!!

[VJP222]

this is from love:destiny where can i buy this

[josephg1991]

in japan but in november beyonce is realeasing a new album and this song will be on it

[MariposaGirl1981]

this song is a remake of an old Billy Joel song

[wwerkohbk]

Whilst listening to the Billy Joel original of this song, I found out that Beyonce did a cover, even though I dislike Beyonce, this is actually an extremely good cover, not a patch on the original, but credit where credit is due.

[babyboop8]

love both versions!!!...well i do kinda like the older version better...but bee did the song justice...luv it

[illnelnel]

the older version is better

[cockrunner15]

that is correct this is a billy joel song... you guys should listen to more than just new hip hop and r&b the old stuff was way better and i am not old either i am 24 i just like all types of music

[FNBAElie]

Reprise scandaleuse ! Je m'insurge !

Billy t'es le king !

[PootyHead]

She did a VERY nice cover of Billy Joel's "Honesty". The original is still the best, however.

Piano > Samples + Electronic Beats

[urlijah]

its cool, but it aint all that.... i guess beyonce cant write anymore she's doing a lot of remakes

[tesroz]

honesty, still in love...and...?thats lots?

[MariposaGirl1981]

this is a remake of an old billy joel song

[tesroz]

i know;)

[josephg1991]

I know lol

[oxXTJRXxo]

where do these songs come from??

[mizannette324]

Thats what I wanna know.. lol

[TimmyPierre]

Geez people are getting so worked up about these songs that are leaked. They are just demos. They are probably not gonna make the album,

[Belize1212]

I dont see why people are even arguing about weather Beyonce can sing soulful songs and what have you! She Killed it with Dangerously In Love At The Grammies, The National Anthem and Listen on Oprah. Even Patti LaBelle would cosign that she is one of the best of this Generation. People say she's a Pop artist only because She is POPULAR, meaning she achieves Mainstream success! But in all honesty she is on of the best that the industry has to offer right now because she is so versitile!

[dakotaearls88]

I just have one thing 2 say in response 2 ur comment..."HALLELUJAH!!!" U hit it on da nail. I mean, of course people are goin' 2 hate or say negative thiings about whomever is da GREATEST at da moment. At da same time, it's pointless tryhing 2 argue over which genre she best represents!! GET OVER IT!!!! She has already proved dat she can sing so many genres. So, for now on just say if ur "like it" or "dislike"!! Don't go into detail bcuz we all don't care bcuz she will foreva be da GREATEST! lol

[leanderus]

no,no,no you're so wrong with 'soul' music. if i see you're channel, it's filled with that typical american club beating up mixed songs. beyonce is a realy,realy GOOD singer but she can't sing from her heart,especially not in Flaws and all. for songs with a real meaning, listen to Billie Holiday or anno 2008: Amy Winehouse. that's SOUL

[damskooo]

yhm she can sing from the heart

[PootyHead]

That's because it isn't her song.

She's covering an old song by Billy Joel.

[damskooo]

i know

[cockrunner15]

thats where u r wrong bee can sing from her heart but she only does it when she know she has too and i dare u compare amy winehouse to bee lol thats funny not nothin to compare be will run circles around her and its 2 different styles...

[Lilmama111]

i like her voice in this song i luv this song

[Aapiejj]

BEYONCÉ IS THE QUEEN

[GermanRasta]

amazing voice beyonce!

[donukaczokorniszonek]

ta piosenka jest slicznaaaaaaaa mmmm:P
