'Keeping the Faith' is a song by rock singer-songwriter Billy Joel, released from his 1983 album An Innocent Man. It reached #18 on the main US Billboard Hot 100 chart and #3 on the US BillboardAdult Contemporary chart. The song was the only single from the album that failed to chart on the UK Singles Chart, despite the success of An Innocent Man in the United Kingdom. 'Keeping the Faith' is the last track on and final single from the album.

The song was remixed for release as a 7' vinyl single. An extended remix was also released on US promotional 12' vinyl singles (Columbia AS 1982). Both 7' and 12' releases state 'Special Mix' on the label and both have a printed run time of 4:44. The actual run times for the 7' and 12' are 4:52 and 5:27, respectively. The 7' remix is available on the My Lives box set, incorrectly stating the version as '12' Remix.' The 12' remix has never been released on CD or in digital format for stores like iTunes - despite customer demand.

Music video[edit]

The music video for the song depicts a court trial to determine whether Joel is innocent and is 'keeping the faith' (as the song 'An Innocent Man' plays in the background.) Richard Pryor makes a cameo appearance at the beginning of the video, standing at the bottom of the courthouse steps, reading a newspaper with the headline 'Billy Joel: Guilty or Innocent?'. The courtroom audience is populated by 1950s acts on one side, and 1960s acts (including a Jimi Hendrix lookalike) on the other, and shows Joel singing and dancing throughout the video. Joel's wife-to-be Christie Brinkley appears in the video as the 'red haired girl in a Chevrolet'. At the end, Joe Piscopo makes a cameo, reading a newspaper with the headline 'Billy Joel: An Innocent Man!', and after giving a one hundred dollar tip, quips to a shoeshine boy, 'Keep the faith, kid.'

The cover for the single shows an image of Joel and the judge (character actor Richard Shull) in the 'jukebox' courtroom from the video. Nexus 2 vst zip download. /download-game-cooking-mama-apk.html.

Background[edit]

The song itself is set in the 1980s, with the singer reminiscing about the 1950s lifestyle. As a result, Joel lists many prominent items of the time, in particular, Lucky Strike cigarettes, chino pants, Sen-Sen mints, Trojan condoms, and Old Spice after shave, as well as many fashion styles common during the time, including matador boots 'with the Cuban heel', and the Pompadour hairstyle. At the same time, Joel questions being overly sentimental about the past, singing, 'The good old days weren't always good./ And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems.'

• Lyrics of this song at MetroLyrics

'And So It Goes' is a song written by Billy Joel in 1983, though it was not released until six years later. It appeared as the tenth and final track of his 1989 studio album Storm Front. The original 1983 demo was released on the 2005 box set My Lives.^[1] Joel wrote the song about a doomed relationship with model Elle Macpherson. Their relationship was dramatic, as Macpherson was only a teenager while Joel was reaching his mid-30s. Joel dated Macpherson for a brief time shortly before becoming involved with model Christie Brinkley, who would ultimately become his second wife. The song is unique for Joel as it is written in iambic tetrameter. In the original demo version of 'And So It Goes,' Joel sings the melody simply, accompanied by a simple piano backdrop, in a style very reminiscent of a hymn. On the 1989 album version, Joel sings and plays all the instrumentation (piano and synthesizers). The official video is from a live performance in front of a concert audience.

The single peaked at No. 37 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and No. 5 on the U.S. Adult Contemporary chart in 1990. It has been covered by many subsequent artists (see 'Cover Versions' below). The King’s Singers and others have developed several vocal harmony arrangements of the song, which are often performed by high school and college choirs.^[2][3]
