"Allentown" is a song by American singer #BillyJoel and the lead track on Joel's 1982 album #TheNylonCurtain. Released as the album's second single, it was accompanied by a conceptual #musicVideo. Upon its release, and especially in subsequent years, "Allentown" emerged as an anthem of #bluecollar America, representing both the aspirations and frustrations of America's working class in the late 20th century. "Allentown" reached No. 17 on the #Billboard Hot 100.
