Let Kendall Roy's cover of Billy Joel's 'Honesty' crush you

A man (Jeremy Strong as Kendall Roy on

At long last: From the pipes that brought you "L to the OG" comes a top-notch sad boy cover of Billy Joel's "Honesty."

That's right, Succession stans. Composer Nicholas Britell dropped the official soundtrack for Season 3 of the HBO's dark satirical dramedy. The soundtrack, which includes 21 songs, features a delightful array of Italian-influenced string numbers and stress-inducing piano bangers. But most importantly, it gives fans what we've so desperately been craving: A full-length Kendall Roy cover of Joel's emotional song about tenderness, truthfulness, and loneliness.

In Season 3, Episode 7, "Too Much Birthday," Kendall (Jeremy Strong) takes the stage and grabs the mic ahead of his elaborate birthday bash. He belts less than a minute of "Honesty" — with every intention of singing it to his guests later that night — but sadly we never get the full performance. Until now.

Grab your gold chain, toss on your turtleneck, or wrap yourself in your favorite comfort blanket and zone out to the musical stylings of Strong as Kendall singing Billy Joel. Let it crush you. It's OK. We all deserve one tiny Succession-fueled sob, as a treat.

And in all honesty, if this doesn't earn Ken a kiss from daddy, I don't know what will.
