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
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

A very beautiful rendition of Billy Joel's great song. Well done Emily!

@Allen2 11 месяцев назад

Oh Emily, your performance on “Honesty” is honestly such perfection: Sincere vocals flowing smoothly throughout, piano skills accompanying yourself, elegant stage dress/shoes/hairstyle/makeup. The Piano Man (American music icon Billy Joel) has an upcoming new successor, our “Piano Woman” Emily Linge. How can I live my normal life when your team is posting new videos on Fridays, then Wednesdays, then a special Q&A on a Tuesday, then Monday and now Saturday? I remain on constant vigil and alert to receive and praise! But I love it! Your fan, Allen.

Love the ambience, with the subdued studio lighting! It really sets a nice mood! Nice to hear the passion and emotion in your voice, especially in the lower registers! Not only are you an outstanding performer, but you are a great story teller, too! With your absolutely flawless performances, you always make each cover song your own! Looking forward to you next surprise!😍🤩👏👍

With all honesty, Miss Emily should be getting more views than what she is getting. Emily has over 227 thousand subscribers, then why is she not getting around 500,000 views with each video? This young lady is singing her heart out, we all should show her better support than what she is getting. I have already watched this video twice and will probably watch it ten more times...maybe more. If we all do our part she should get around 500,000 views with every video. I got your back Emily, lol. I love what you do and enjoy every video, especially the Beatles covers. I will be giving a song suggestion in the near future, hint, it will be a Beatles cover or maybe John Lennon...

Many of us musicians love the music but are unwilling to put in the work to become great musicians and vocalists. Emily Linge is a great vocalist/musician because of her work ethic and is setting the standard as to how to achieve one's musical dreams. All anyone has to do is watch and see her vocal and musical development on her RU-vid videos. She continually gets better and better. Thank you, Emily, for your inspirational example of professionalism. It's amazing how much time and effort has gone into your RU-vid posts alone, but few people understand the learning and practice that takes place behind the scenes prior to the videos being made. So, Congratulations on Your Continued Success!!!
