As Beyonce continues work on her as-yet-untitled third solo album, a new song, presumed to be from the set, has surfaced. ‘Beautiful Nightmare’ sees the singer delve into new musical territory – dabbling with a more Pop/Dance orientated sound in comparison to what we’re used to hearing from her. Granted it’s hardly a masterpiece, I’m liking this. After the mediocrisy that was the ‘B’ Day’ album, I’ve been hoping to see Beyonce experiment with differing sounds – so I’m definitely welcoming this new direction. {Thanks Benson!}Hit or Miss?
LISTEN: Beautiful Nightmare {Link Removed}
I listened to this a couple of times and i love the girl, but i just dont like it.
B’Day was like crack. You may not like the singles but the album was good still not a masterpiece.
this track was prolly the first song recorded.
WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS STEALING NEW SONGS FROM MY FORUM/BLOG AND POSTING THEM ON YOURS?
Sony is coming for your blog.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Shut the f*** up and leave Sam alone
her voice is too harsh, yelling her vocal, leave to pop to janet jackson, cause she can’t pull this off.
I really love B… I really love that style…
But COMMON THIS IS WEAK : Janet and DK joints are wayyy better than this… she should do better to come with that type of style !
Hmm…i don’t like it. Her vocals just don’t fit the song…she should keep her r&b style n not change it like this…she can record pop/eletronic songs but i think this change is too big for her…this is sad cause i really like her…
I really like it. I thought Bday was a great album and I loved the style, but I am really excited to see Beyonce go in new directions. I am loving the beat of this song and her voice is good too. The song is very different and new. I hope the new style goes good for her. Great song. 🙂
U GOTTA HEAR IT WITH HEAD PHONES IT TAKES OVER YOUR MIND IT SOUNDS CRAZY TRY IT.
THE SONG IS HOTT, AND ITS JUST A LEAKED SONG NOT HER SINGLE RELAX…LOL
theres no way this will even make the album! her album is coming out late 2008 and its only march! plus its title is to similar to beautiful liar. itd be like if she released a song called crazy in hate or somethin. im puzzled to why she even recorded this but its okay. plus its a demo also. a finished version could maybe be hot
Hopefully this was a starter track or she was just playing around in the studio. I love me some B, but not this song. Her voice is too powerful for it. If she can’t do what Janet, Madonna or Rihanna do, then back to the drawing board.
Actually I dont HAte It. Its catchy.. But it sound like it should be on Danity Kane’s Album.
But maybe we should embrace a new sound from her
Well I’m a fan of bey and I’m not trying to back her up or anything but I kinda like it. I think her vocals really work on this track. I wouldn’t mind more like this. At least she ain’t afraid to try new things and stay with the same material. Its nice to finally her something new and different. Do yo thang Bey!
This song “shoudn’t” be no where. It is fine where its at-with Bee. The song was given to her for a reason. She is changing up her style and we will recieve great new things from her. Give the song a chance. The song is good and her vocals are usually higher than this, but maybe for this song it was supposed to be this way. I like the song but it reminds me of “Gimmie More”
This song is hot. Beyonce’s vocals are soft, smooth, round, and amazing. The song is intoxicating me 🙂
I know somebody didnt compare janet madonna and rihanna nonsinging asses to beyonce’s beautiful voice. Well janet and madonna are legends but rihanna hell no I cant believe you put her in the same category as those two. You must be smoking. Anyway this song is hot and on other blogs people are loving it so so far so good. Beyonce still that top chick.
I agree this song is wack not trying to diss beyonce cause im a big fan but dang kelly rowland has better songs than this s***
im feelin this song.
its freash and awesome.
go on~B~
Well if I compare Janet, rihanna and Madonna it’s because B is a better vocalist than them…
And that type of sound fit to lil voices… Beyonce voices is too strong for that !!! I just think she worth better !
Uuum, I am not convinced this sound will grow on me. The title and lyrics don’t seem like they were really thought through. This song definitely should NOT make the album. I think they are hoping that the song’s beat will sell the record because the lyrics are amateurish. Sorry Bey, but you can do better.
boring. please vacate the booth. give people a time to miss you. they will be less inclined to diss you!
I’m not like a huge fan of hers,though I do think she’s very talented, but I like this song, and I think she sounds pretty vocally as well on here,I think I like it,because it’s a different sound for her
I AM A BEY FAN AND I AM NOT BIASED.
janet, madonna and rihanna are pop/dance singers. rihanna may not have a strong voice like beyonce but admit to the fact that BEYONCE IS GOIN IN THE RIHANNA DIRECTION. btw, rihanna has been more POP than beyonce ever since.
this track suits weak vocals like rihanna, not beyonce. i dont know why she wants to ditch r&b to go in the rihanna direction. she should leave this mess fuh rihanna, beyonce please get back in the r&b game and leave the pop sound fuh the weak singers.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Beyonce NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Its just what I expect from Beyonce : CRAP
LET ME BREAK IT DOWN ITS JUST A LEAKED SONG! K
DIS IS RPOBS A LIL EXPERIMENT FOR HER NEW ALBUM ND WAT DOES SAM KNO BOUT HER NEW SOUND HE HASNT BEEN IN THE STUDIO WID HER
DATS NOT HATIN JUS SAYIN
ITS A PRETTY HOT SONG ITS JUS A SONG NUTIN ELSE
WEN B C** SHE GUNNA GO RELA HARD!
its a cool laid back song…soemthing the dance clubs will love and the gays will go crazy over…
Her label probably released this song on purpose to see the reaction of the audience to see if they can move forward with the dance album…
But honest,…Beyonce was never making a dance album, from the research i reviewed they said freemason was producing some songs…not an album…
I heard this on the radio, and I didn’t like it….and I still don’t. Beyonce needs to find a new image, because all the screaming, glitter, big eyelashes and big hair is played out.
it has a nice sound to it….I like the cut…..Stop hatin the chick is bad
I think i prefer Thirsty (Cassie’s song) to this…it’s not bad n i’m not hatin on B cause i’m a huge fan but i’m expectin better…i’m sure she’ll get hot pop tracks wayy better than this one!
Beyoncé is my girl, my idol, the best singer and performer ever, my “déesse”…but she should stick to R’n’B…this song is nice, I like it, but it’s far too mainstream, and I don’t like the fact she wants to go THAT electro-poppy now, B’Day was what her real fans needed…
U r sooo right! She should stick to r&b n even though many said B’day was crap i think B showed who she really is on that album!
Damn! home girl got another Hit on her hands, I love it…if this is teh direction her album is goin I’m loving t! GO BEEE YOUR NUMBER 1 FAN
-G-
People why all the hate? You guys keep complaining that she does the same old same old stuff now she’s going completely in a different direction and all them haterz complaining again! geez there’s no pleasing anyone, B ignore them haterz they still gonna buy yo album when it comes out so they can hate on it lol
all i’m gonna say is if “pon de forehead” can sing pop or whetever she sings and do great beyonce can definitely pull it off, it’s a given
here’s a new link that i found.. as far as the previous comments..
1) whoever is bitter about their blog being used to furnish this link, u need to relax-relate and release because its not that serious. if the music leaked, it leaked for a reason—TO BE SHARED.. you aren’t Beyonce so stop getting bitter..
2) IMO, the song is hot and could actually attract a diff audience. theres ppl out there that don’t listen to her.. it’s all about mass marketing and bringin in more $$
3) its only a leaked song, and theres no guarantee that it will make the album. i hope this is a sign of her going in a diff direction but some of you need to chill.. you’re acting as tho she’s Britney.. geez
4) i hope you make it to the new link before it’s shut down also.. enjoy! =)
oops, here it is 😉

lmao @ the comment about the gays going crazy over this. LOL.. so true… HAHA
forget who’s singing it, this song is crap, vocally, lyrically, and conceptually. Awful. Because it’s Beyonce shouldn’t and doesn’t make a difference. It’s awful and it wouldn’t matter who sang it.
ive listened to it a few times on me and damn has it grown on me. its something different for beyonce and its good to see shes experimenting. isit just me or when the beat is first coming in it sounds so much like michael jacksons beat it?
I agree with the last post. It does remind me of Beat it too. When she starts singing she reminds me of Teedra Moses a lil
again, standard lyrics let her down.
I love this song!! its is amazing, I’ve been listening to it on loop for the past 36 hours!! Even tho she said its a demo i still love it!!
oh and also if anyone wants the version without the clips and kisses in it i have uploaded it here!

How can you say this is a new sound???? oh please!!! It’s the shame Britney and Rihanna do!! We can call it watever but new. I expected Beyonce to have a pop sound on her new album but more on her style. And when I heard this I got really decieved. I think (and pray) this won’t be a single and not even a song on the album. I expect so much more from her, she can do much better than this.
This song is amazing!! I heard the original sound without the voice TAG (back voice) “Clipes and kisses”, is better than this. Beyoncé explains more about this DEMO in her official website beyonceonline.com
This song is amazing!! I’m from Brazil and I heard the original sound without the voice TAG (back voice) “Clipes and kisses”, is better than this. Beyoncé explains more about this DEMO in her official website beyonceonline.com
very good song from my friend beyonce…you know what evrerybody crictice her but r u able to do better…?
I really Love Beyonce` I ALWAYS HAVE! I think she is great at what she does! I love this song, and I hope this album will be a success like all her other ones!
i dont care what no one says this song is fire and im glad bey is taking a new direction with her third album. i loved b’day and DIL and if her new album is anything like Beautiful Nightmare Its gonna be HOTT
I love this song from Beyonce. She is going in that direction because that is what is popular now alot of singers are doing it.
