I'm not a fan, stan or hater, but I am bias. I love the original by BC Jeans and I think that Beyonce just butchers the song. I felt the CD version was aight, but the video was on point. Her live interpretation of this song is horrible and what was up with the reverb?!?!?!

It's a rock song and it is an emotional song so you have to add the highs and lowes appropriately. All the adilib she was doing and repeating certain phrases was not needed. It's taking away from the emotional content of the song. The words are powerful enough on their own. She doesn't need all that extra "stuff."

Perfect example of what I'm talking about is Luther Vandross. Most of his hits were written by someone else, "Superstar", "House is not a Home", just to name a few.

He NEVER over sang on the album or in concert. His voice is way better than Beyonce's, but the point is less is more.

Okay, let the negativity and name calling began.......
