@WATCH THE THRONE....- I understand where you're coming from. But, for me personally, it wasn't just about this performance alone. In general, it seems to me that her voice has changed over the years. Beyonce has only been a solo artist for 8 years. And, she's only getting ready to turn 30. Last I check, 30 is not old by any means. So, when people come with the, "Well, she is getting older now, what do you expect?", I'm not buying it. When you listen to all of her albums starting with "Dangerously In Love" all the way up to her most recent work which is, "4", you can see a difference in the quality of her voice. As I've said before, there are many other female artists that have been in the game a lot longer than Beyonce, and their voices still sound the same as the years go by. So, something is not right.
