Honest is a black comedy crime film released in 2000. The film was the directorial debut of ex-Eurythmics member Dave Stewart and starred Peter Facinelli and three members of the British/Canadian girl group All Saints: Melanie Blatt and sisters Nicole and Natalie Appleton.
The plot follows the antics of three gun-toting, streetwise, saucy sisters in Swinging London in the late 1960s. The film is most notable for the topless scenes by the Appleton sisters. Blatt and the Appletons also contributed to three songs on the film's soundtrack.
Honest received unfavourable reviews with one critic remarking, "It is the worst kind of rubbish, the kind that makes you angry you have wasted 105 minutes of your life."Peter Bradshaw noted Honest "subscribes to the usual credulous fictions about the charm, glamour and wit of violent criminals, and leaves out these qualities in spades" and added "However silly and implausible, it would be all right if there was the slightest hint of brio or fun in the script, written by comedy giants Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais. But there isn't". The Scottish Daily Record went so far as to state that "This turgid tale of Sixties London isn't just bad - it's quite probably the worst film ever" and added "And Honest is being tipped for a slot in Hollywood's hall of shame, ranked alongside duffs like Waterworld and The Avengers". However, the Sunday Times gave it 4 stars and called it a "cult classic" à la Amazon Women on the Moon. The film was screened out of competition at the 2000 Cannes Film Festival.

[Verse 1]
Patience, test my patience
If i made it too hard for you maybe you should've changed it
Say it, you should say it
Cause i'd say i was wrong just to make it fill all the spaces
Waiting, always waiting
If i gave you control would you say that we could seek it?
[Pre-Chorus]
I hope you find a way to be yourself someday
In weakness or in strength
Change can be amazing
So i pray for the best, i pray for the best for you
[Chorus]
I wish you could be honest, i wish you could be honest with me. (x2)
[Verse 2]
Chasing, always chasing dreams
Why'd you stick around, why'd you stay with me?
Why'd you fake it?
Hesitation is killing me too
But i couldn't save it, i couldn't save it
[Pre-Chorus]x2
I hope you find a way to be yourself someday
In weakness or in strength
Change can be amazing
So i pray for the best, i pray for the best for you
[Chorus]x4
I wish you could be honest, i wish you could be honest with me.
