  5. blairdevereaux May 25, 2011

    please pre-order the album or buy this song on iTunes…such a good song and so reminiscent of “Dangerously In Love”…
    for those who thought she was steering too far out her lane, listen to this and be reassured that Beyonce is in her best form ever…

    follow me on twitter if you agree

  24. Part Of The Blanco Family May 25, 2011

    She is going to SANGGG this on IDOL tonight.. i expect her trademark SPASMS,TWITCHES,STANK-FACES and Fierce-Ness on this..
    i see Beyonce and Sasha are still in effect.
    Sasha Fierce – Run The World , Beyonce – 1+1
    …its funny after that album its as if i can tell the diff between who is who…

  27. WonderLand19 May 25, 2011

    Love it. little hints of Prince which i like. POWER BALLAD!!

    I hope this is a single. well done bey for not going the DANCE/EURO-TRASH route.

    POOOOOOOOOOOOWER BALLLLLLAD PEOPLE!

  28. Part Of The Blanco Family May 25, 2011

    i think this may be the classic album everyone wants outta her… lowkey YOU KNOW our faves read the blogsite comments.

  29. MaZ May 25, 2011

    I like it! Powerful. Good orchestration. You can feel the Prince’s influence.

  30. BrittBrittM May 25, 2011

    I always love Ballads form Bey, I can’t get into her fast or upbeats songs. Good job Bey

    Make Love To Me

  31. blake May 25, 2011

    INCREDIBLE, starting the album with a slow paced song is a risky move but bey definetly pulled it off like only she can. listening to 1+1 for the 4th time, cant get enough of it, love love love love it

  32. BEYONCE SLAYS May 25, 2011

    F***! This is the s*** i’m talking about. *repeat*

    BUY IT ON ITUNES NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

  33. Imgunnacheckuboo May 25, 2011

    I’m feeling it but not in a #1 hit kinda way.

  34. ICON May 25, 2011

    THAT MADE ME CRY. Beyonce is truely back. Those vocals the tone of the song is just beautiful. I’m glad she gone back to what she does best and those are ballads. This song sounds it should be the album’s closing song and Run The World (Girls) should be the opener.

    But i’m really shocked End Of Time is not the next single and if it’s not a single in the future. I will be mad.

  35. mariela May 25, 2011

  40. KYLE May 25, 2011

    THE F*** IS THIS???????

  41. Part Of The Blanco Family May 25, 2011

    You can tell she let her natural voice shine. and she didnt really use any techincal editing because her vocals sound so RAW… the way it sounds on her live performances.. im loving this

  42. jusletitrok May 25, 2011

    ummmm NO MAME! She tried to sound Soulful but FAILED!!! the emphasis on YOU is just WACK!!!! ANother one for GURL! BYE!!!!

  43. Shariff May 25, 2011

  44. MONROE May 25, 2011

    @KYLE u trying to start a war again.. please have a seat.. dont even … just dont.. enjoy the music

  46. bcs May 25, 2011

    i like this more then that ‘Run The World (Girls)’ not saying that it is a bad song. but i also would have like to hear a up beat dancing song, but anyways it is a GOOD song cant wait for the video

  47. jusletitrok May 25, 2011

    Anyone who thinks this is FIYA! is DELUSIONAL!!!!

  48. 4 May 25, 2011

    OH MY GOD !!!!!!!!!

  49. MONROE May 25, 2011

    @kyle..its called a hit.

  50. Part Of The Blanco Family May 25, 2011

    @JustLetItRok how did she fail tho???? smh

  51. musik_lover May 25, 2011

    Now I will be honest!!! This song was the TRUTH!!! I have not loved a song so instantly by Beyonce in forever but she truly delivered some powerful vocals that exuded pure emotion. And I am not a beyonce stan.

  52. ICON May 25, 2011

    I think I understand what meant about making the sound “live” because this song doesn’t sounds like her live vocals with no editing or autotune. After 2 listens I already love this song. It has me in tears.

  53. DestinyBoston May 25, 2011

    Chillsssssssssssssssssssssssss

  54. KYLE May 25, 2011

    RTW>>>>>THIS SONG

    I AM SLAYED BACK AND FORTH

  56. Kavion May 25, 2011

    @TRUE BLUE
    Are you in here? 🙂

    This is the song I was talking about! The one I said I think you’re going to love 🙂

    …You better see this, lol.

  57. lol May 25, 2011

    reminds me of Prince but this tracks sounds classic BEYONCE KILLED IT !!!

  58. Yumz May 25, 2011

    This just made my day ! This is very soulful nd deep; damn im glad she’s back ! Effin love her

  59. musik_lover May 25, 2011

    I could also hear Prince influences over this track…I feel like this might be her most personable album to date if the rest of the ballads are as good as this one. S/O to her marriage for the inspiration because it was all up and through this song. DAMN **hits replay**

  60. MONROE May 25, 2011

    SOME WILL NEVER BE HAPPY WITH HER…BUT THOSE PPL DONT REALLY MATTER.

  61. Bam Bam May 25, 2011

    She redeemed herself on this song for me….

  62. ICON May 25, 2011

    @Kyle

    Shut ur ass up you troll. Please let’s not talk about Britney. That shameless woman has and will never sing a song like this because she is TALENTLESS! Can’t sing can’t dance she can’t even walk probably.

    Please don’t try to come for Bey when your fave is just a fail.

  63. We Aint got nothin but love May 25, 2011

    More like make love to my ears.

    This is why beyonce is as successful as she is today. Because, like prince, she enravels you into her music. it could be as simplistic as this, and still evoke emotions and chills.

  64. chrisj May 25, 2011

    OMFG IM CUT KYLE STUPID ASS LMAO

  65. ICON May 25, 2011

    @ICON
    Aww, can you relate?

    This is one of the songs I got to hear! I’m glad it made it! I kept calling it 2 + 2 at first, lol.

    I’m starting to get emotional to, after 4, Beyoncé will officially be a legend.

  73. MONROE May 25, 2011

    SIDENOTE…i think rihanna put britney on s&m as a joke….i laugh every time i hear it..britney sounds like a effin baby, miss swan even. it makes u realize how good riri reallly does sound.

  74. JAii May 25, 2011

    Wow! Simply beautiful! Love the raw vocals & she looks great on the cover of the single!

  75. Blue Kid May 25, 2011

  80. the kiddz May 25, 2011

  83. W.E. May 25, 2011

    I love Beyonce and How her new sound is!!! I loe artists tht take a risk and do something new every time thts mainly why i love Run the World…F*** the american radio listeners cuz tht song is epic nd should be no.1 i mean if the Katy Perry s*** made it to number 1 Run the World (girls) sure as hell deserves it..

  84. chrisj May 25, 2011

    lol i think we can all agree some of us cried listening to this master piece THANK YOU BEYONCE!!!

  85. RUnTHISMOTHA May 25, 2011

    I like it, but Bee trying to sound soulful is an epic fail

  86. Kavion May 25, 2011

    Y’all gon make me cry..

  87. harlem May 25, 2011

    She just took us back too 1970………………..with this s***…………..

  88. Part Of The Blanco Family May 25, 2011

    ewww i missed Bey.. #fail

  89. SparkD May 25, 2011

    It has a bit of Fantasia’s Bittersweet sound and a stripped down “vintage” Alicia Keys with aggressive vocals and Prince/Red-Light-Special guitar.

  90. ICON May 25, 2011

    @Kavion

    That song really touched me. It reminds me of someone very special to me. I’m just tears I trying to stop myself stop crying but I can’t. I never expected she send out this type of song to be a single.

    4 IS BEYONCE’S LEGENDARY STATEMENT DEAL WITH IT HATERS!

  91. MONROE May 25, 2011

    “*CRIES HYSTERICALLY WHILE POUNDING THE FLOOR*” YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

  92. RUnTHISMOTHA May 25, 2011

    @HARLEM

    I think you don’t know 70’s soul so.

  93. ICON May 25, 2011

    OMG Everyone crying which makes me want to cry even more

    *CRIES INTO PILLOW*

  94. SparkD May 25, 2011

    I need to listen to this besides Collard Greens and Cornbread by Fantasia and If I Ain’t Got You by Alicia Keys. It’s giving me that vibe…but different.

  95. MONROE May 25, 2011

    When she says “i dont know much about algebra” “i dont know much about guns”her tone is so effin raw. YOU CANT DENY THIS WOMAN!

  96. Dezman May 25, 2011

    A song that will stand the test of time!!! Simply put…EVERLASTING!!!

  97. Nathan May 25, 2011

    Ok, Oprah had me crying today now BEYONCE I can’t take it, too much in oneday

  98. True Blue’s family May 25, 2011

    It is with our deepest regret that we announce that our beloved True Blue has passed away on May 25th, 2011 at 8:50 PM EST as a result of being slayed by singer Beyoncé’s latest song “1+1”.

    She will be greatly missed. 🙁

  99. ME May 25, 2011

    Brought me tears. Wow. beyonce that voice.. The is a amazing

  100. RUnTHISMOTHA May 25, 2011

    @SPARKD

    The difference between Alicia & Fantasia and Beyoncé is that the first two are soul singers and the last one is a pop singers. It lacks so to me. Jazmine Sullivan would have killed that ish!

  101. ICON May 25, 2011

    @Monroe

    Gurl I know. I mean I think the tone of the song just touched my heartstrings right way. Just beautiful.

  102. RUnTHISMOTHA May 25, 2011

    it lacks soul

  103. BENJAMIN May 25, 2011

    It’s decent, I like the ending guitar the most on the song. The part when she stress the “you’s” sounds a little annoying though.

  104. ICON CRIES ABOUT TRUE BLUE’S DEATH May 25, 2011

    Oh my goodness True Blue is dead

  105. who is beyonic May 25, 2011

    Boring !!!! Desperately looking for that HIT…. But it is still a no no…

    Seems like nowadays some people easily cry… FLOP !

  106. YUPPITSME May 25, 2011

    SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL! im ready to get this album

  107. BRANDY 4EVER May 25, 2011

    She just slayed my whole life with this song….. !!! Bey done did it again! I must say much better than RTW in a way.

  108. Part Of The Blanco Family May 26, 2011

    so im guessing Beyonce’s coming now.. well after the commercial break… she better DESTROY that song live…

  109. QUEEN BEYONCE STANN May 26, 2011

    O M G! I Lover Her Ballads! (Except If I Were A Boy)
    Just The Song I Needed!

    This Song >>>> Everything Out Now

    #QueenBeyonce2011

  110. loves1embrace May 26, 2011

    I can understand people calling Fantasia a soul singer but Alicia Keys! Beyonce has more soul that Alicia and her tone death ass! Lets get real here! This song really does remind me of the covers she did for Cadillac Records. Her voice is so raw and soooooo beautiful at the same time!

  111. HotMama May 26, 2011

    I love this track because it reminds me of dare I say…PRINCE!!! This is a keeper..

  112. SparkD May 26, 2011

    @Runthismotha It’s definitely lacking soul, emotion,. and the sultriness of a song like that. When you’re asking someone to make love to you…you’re suppose to be singing in a vulnerable, kitten, sultry sounds….not aggressively…although she sang it well..and I noticed she stripped down the instruments to focus on her voice.

  113. lissa May 26, 2011

    I’mma need y’all to understand! The Queen is back!

  114. BC May 26, 2011

    hahaha who is beyoic is just a hater

  115. Tanya Renault May 26, 2011

    Sorry I don’t feel anything special from listening to this song. She hopes people will embrace it like they did with rollin in the deep but she failed.

    Adele >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Beyonce career

    I will not buy it !

  116. Mr.M May 26, 2011

    FLOP FLOP FLOP FLOP FLOP FLOP FLOP FLOP

    I CAN’T BREATHE LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO xD

    this album will flop hard just like RTW!

  117. NAUDISWEET May 26, 2011

    I’m not a huge Beyonce fan, but I always loved her ballads. I absolutely hate girls, I think its the worse song of her career, but this song is everything. She’s a trendsetter, so I hope that music starts to go more in the direction of this song, cause God knows I’m tired of the autotuned pop trash that is being given to us these days!!

  118. Speaks Truth May 26, 2011

    Omg I’m crying……I can’t stop playing this song…..

  119. MAHOGANY May 26, 2011

    her vocals are terrible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! she cant sing soul/blues at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    TERRIBLE F****** TERRIBLE.

  120. Kingofleon May 26, 2011

    not a fan of this, its lacking something. The instrumental doesnt move me

  121. Kavion May 26, 2011

    @TRUE BLUE
    YESSSS!

    Did you see my comment? This is the song I was talking about! The soulful track with a Rock tinge that I knew you were going to love? This is it!

    @ICON
    I know, wow it’s amazing. The sound of this album so far is just so fresh & beautiful. I could listen to the instrumentals without even having the lyrics, honestly!

  122. DARKAQUA May 26, 2011

    SHE GROWING AS ARTIST…AND HER VOCALS ARE MATURING AS WELL

  123. harlem May 26, 2011

    Damn, this woman is real……………..

  124. KYLE May 26, 2011

    @S***

    I HOPE MY FAVE WILL NEVER

  125. S*** May 26, 2011

    Told yall she was Kicking the album off with BALLADS this time 🙂

    I only heard a little bit of this & with my cheap a** ear phones,

    Im taking this one LIVE!

  126. MAHOGANY May 26, 2011

    @music lover

    SHUT THE F*** UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! B**** TWAT.

  127. Yellow Gorillah May 26, 2011

    YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS!

    Thank Jesus for this song now this album may have a chance!”

    I LOVE how she given me PRINCE Tease….!!!

    For those who are calling it “EPIC” = Keep it cute
    For those who are saying they gone cry = You delusional and need a seat

    I LOVE this song my favorite so far… BUT As somebody already stated it Lacks SOUL This is what people never seem to get Beyonce has NO SOUL this is why she is not a soul singer I know if somebody with soul sang this THEN maybe I would have been touched she needs to work on that

    But take her lack of soul away I LOVE this song Thank god it’s the NEXT single I don’t know if it will go #1 =/ ballads are just not doing well in the charts no more.. I’m looking foward to hearing more material from her now

  128. SparkD May 26, 2011

    @KINGOFLEON The instruments are stripped down to she her vocals, which are very aggressive, but the soul of it is missing….If I sit this song next to Adele, Amy Winehouse, Fantasia, Mary even Alicia Keys (AK is experiencing vocal decline), the song is still missing something. I guess she feels the growls will make up for it.

  129. S*** May 26, 2011

    @KYLE

    When you’re Done TROLLING Please go Tell BRITNEY TO SIT HER OLD ASS DOWN!!

    RIHANNA >>>> STIFFney.

    *See The BB Awards* 🙂

  130. chrisj May 26, 2011

    If I ain’t got something, I don’t give a damn ’cause I’ve got it with you YESSSS BEYONCE OMG

  131. BEYONCE SLAYS May 26, 2011

    @mahogony

    Your point would be valid if u weren’t such a troll.

  132. dave May 26, 2011

    ANOTHER FLOP SONG AGAIN???? THIS ALBUM WILL BE SUCH A MESS, SHE BETTER GET IT TOGETHER ASAP BECAUSE THIS SONG JUST SUCKS. I REALLY THINK SHE PEAKED. I DON’T EXCEPT ANYTHING FROM HER ANYMORE. SHE REMAINED THE SAME ALL THOSE YEARS. THIS SONG HAS NOTHING DIFERENT FROM ALL HER PREVIOUS CRAPS.

    NEXT

  133. RUnTHISMOTHA May 26, 2011

    I didn’t feel anything….every time she’s trying to sound soulful, she’s forcing on her vocal chords and it’s so aggressive, irritating. Bey tried to do a timeless ballad like Alicia’s “If I Ain’t Go You” but no girl you ain’t there yet.

  134. True Blue May 26, 2011

    @ Kavion & Icon:

    Sorry it took me so long to get back, but getting through the Pearly Gates is a LOT harder than I imagined it would’ve been. They kept running over every single thing I ever did in my life… anyway, YES, this song didn’t meet my expectations, it EXCEEDED THEM!!!!

    I haven’t been this moved by the beauty of a song since Adele’s “One & Only”. Lord help her if this does not become a single!

  135. S*** May 26, 2011

    @Yellow Gorillah

    #SIT!

    BEYONCE DOES HAVE SOUL!!, Her very Tone is SOULFUL..

    MORE SOUL than MARIAH/ALICIA KEYS/ XTINA

    THATS FOR SURE!!

  136. Mario J May 26, 2011

    THIS SONG IS EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  137. BeyStan May 26, 2011

    CLASSIC! EPIC! MASTERPIECE! ICONIC! I JUST CANT!
    VERY PRINCE!
    THANK YOU BEY!
    FOR MUSIC!

    I know right the song is just beautiful. I’m still in a heap of tears *Puts out another tissue*. Is it just me or does this song get all the more powerful the more and more you listen to it?

    @Yellow Gorillah

    I know you are crying too lol.

  140. Speaks Truth May 26, 2011

    Omg these f****** haters will never stop, it’s like whatever BEYONCE does there going have something negative to say!!! And please don’t say you consider lady gaga or brittney or Rihanna to have some type of soul???? Please BEYONCE performance of resentment=soul DIL performance=soul flaws & all=soul Icant with y’all haters always got to say something nasty becuz ya fav can’t do it!!! No one threw shade towards another artist in this post everybody embrace such as the bey stand but here y’all come probably couldn’t wait to say something negative

  143. BEYONCE SLAYS May 26, 2011

    The haters have been complaining Beyonce doesn’t give them substance, but when she does they are still complaining.

  144. ICON May 26, 2011

    She will be greatly missed.

  155. who is beyonic May 26, 2011

    LMAO @ all those liars sayin they are crying. ANOTHER FLOP!!!!

    Don’t worry you’ll be crying when desperate Beyonic flops hard next month. I will have to order a lot of tissues.

    Beyonic is officially the AMBASSADOR OF FLOPPING.

    DAMN BEYONCE YOU JUST KILLED ME AND BRUNG ME BACK TO LIFE..I LOVE THIS SONG!!

  158. trucie May 26, 2011

    Okay i can get with this. I don’t understand how Run the World was released as a first single. Beyonce ain’t too bright. So far diggin End of Time and this ballad. I have a renewed anticipation for the album. lets see what happens when she delivers the rest.

  159. Angie May 26, 2011

    SHE IS TRYING TO HARD.

  160. d May 26, 2011

    HER VOICE LACKS SOUL I CANT GET A CHILL FROM PRODUCT LIKE HER. WHERES PRINCE AT LEAST HES AN ORIGINAL

  161. Speaks Truth May 26, 2011

    I’m in heaven so much I’m not going even respond to the haters y’all wasting y’all time!!!! BEYONCE got you so red with those vocals and prince inspire harmonies that’s it driving you fuckers insane!!! 1+1 you better show em Bey if she performs this on idol right now I will be done for the rest of the year lol

  162. Kingofleon May 26, 2011

    i hope people are not just praising it to the heavens becos its a old-school ballad and they feel like that automatically makes it good.

    i wish it was abit more experimental like Thats why your beautiful

  163. Kavion May 26, 2011

    @ TRUE BLUE / ICON
    *DEAD*
    I guess I’m joining you, lol.

    I knew you would love this song! Her vocals, and that guitar..? Beyoncé, BEYONCÉ! She planned all of this! She pit out a crappy single first to get us all disappointed. Then she killed that crappy single live, so she could resurrect it on Oprah! Next, she released her best midtempo to date with the most growth, End of Time, and now she’s given us this AMAZING ballad

    @TB: I don’t think I’ve asked you, do you love End of Time to?

  164. B**** PLEASE May 26, 2011

    BEYONCE GIRL THIS IS THE KIND OF SONGS YOU SHOULD BE DOING INSTEAD OF THAT B******* WILLOWSMITH LEFT OVER. ONE WORD BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!

  165. jess May 26, 2011

    holy s***

  166. girl May 26, 2011

    I think when people say she doesnt have soul is because when Bey sings she sounds like a performer. When Adele sings, the b**** sings like she’s been through what she’s singing. No doubt Bey has an awesome voice and this song is great. but it didnt touch my heart at all.

  167. Kavion May 26, 2011

    @BEYONCE SLAYS

    How do you know she’s performing it tonight?!

  186. ICON May 26, 2011

    @S***

    That’s disgustingly low even for you. Why trying to bring a singer by bring a singer down with regards to her weight. Yes, Adele is overweight but it’s not that she needs to be ridiculed because of it by the likes of you. Why can’t you expect Adele and Beyonce are talents.

    @Yellow Gorillah

    Stop making drama and listen to some Rihanna lol.

    After like 5 listens I am just in love with this song
    seee this is the beyonce I like. she needs to stop with all that run this world s***!

    soul or no soul the song is HOT! Give credit when it’s due.

    *Leaves*

  189. BeyRuntheWorld May 26, 2011

    I think the song is bomb. Very raw and classic r and b type stuff (no pop at all). The few hater comments are sooo funny. I actually think alot of people are really jealous of her for some reason. She pretty, talented, and has her head on. The perfect formula for some to hate on…lol. Ive never heard this chick hit a flat note (ever!!)…she works hard…ladies!! yes ladies…stop hatin..it sad….and this is coming from a dude. Run the World is just a song ya’ll come on…do u think her whole CD is gonna be like that..She always releasing a random sound joint. Sometimes its a hit sometimes its not. But that doesnt mean the whole CD is gonna be bad…and this song proves that. Yall just want her to fail…..some femaies got some real issues. If you stop being so bias you would be able to see that Bey is that girl!!

  244. whowhatme May 26, 2011

    Now this was a good blend of soul and rock. I like this one here. I wouldn’t even put RTW on this album…but I guess she has to. Finally a love song. This has an Alicia Keys/Prince/R.Kelly vibe to it.

  245. VA STAND UP!! May 26, 2011

  249. jesse lopez May 26, 2011

    I don’t wanna bash her buuut….girlfriend what is up with them vocals,I can’t stand beyonce but I know the girl can sing.I agree that she seems to be trying too hard especially on the “you” parts.what the hell is alege”ba”?? I like the recorded version better than the ai version but I don’t like it.I also agree that jasmine sullivan would have smashed this song.

  250. WHY DON’T WE… HOW ABOUT NOT May 26, 2011

    @Kyle

    I’m sorry we all can’t lipsynch to pop songs & walk around on stage with our bear bellys like your fave… And let’s be honest, thats the only thing that’s saving Britney right now is her fast food music. Dare i say it, she can’t sing, can’t dance anymore, lacks stage presence (anytime Rihanna works a stage better than you,there’s a problem)….

    You’re seriosly delusional if you think Britney could even hold a match to this song let alone Beyonce.

  251. jesse lopez May 26, 2011

    ok after a second listen it is kinda good but I don’t think it is #1 material.also it was kinda awkward her perfoming this on AI when she keeps yelling make love to me while all those kids were there and the two finalist were teenagers.but that girl is really trying to be heard how many times has she been on AI now?? you’d think she was a contestant
    sorry bey(is that what they call you?) but you need more rest cause you tired and i’m tired of seeing your tired self.

  252. WHY DON’T WE… HOW ABOUT NOT May 26, 2011

    @jesse lopez

    If you’re going to pick @ the smallest things, then maybe you don’t understand that “THEM VOCALS” as you put it is called SINGING!!!!

    Beyonce did just fine with this, no need for Jazmine Sullivan to be added into the mix… And that goes for the rest of you as well.

    This song is just making me…………I’m too weak to even type this comment. I just really…..I CANNOT! I really can’t.

  255. JoJo Ro Ro May 26, 2011

    This is just a buzz single….. End of Time is still 2nd single.

    i love the song!! but aubrey oday has the same picture for automatic.

  257. Monique 1974 May 26, 2011

    How in the world did this song and “Who Run The World (Girls)” end up on the same CD? They don’t even sound like they belong on the same CD together. The songs are drastically different from one another. Anyway, this is the Beyonce I remember! While it may or may not be a chart topper, it’s s whole lot better and easier on the ears than “WRTW”. It has a Prince flavor to it. I’m not going to get all excited just yet. I need to see how the rest of the CD pans out.

  258. Monique 1974 May 26, 2011

    I meant, “It’s a whole lot better and easier on the ears than “WRTW”.

  259. JER May 26, 2011

    Another ballad where BeYAWNce desperately tries to prove she has a big voice. Sit down, BIONCI and just keep flappin your weave and selling cochie because that’s all you can do. eBEY beter watch out with these whack ass songs. I love how it conveniently leaked right before her AI performance. BEYSIC

  263. kingnoah3000 May 26, 2011

    Yes B!… this took me back to her “crazy in love” cd…

  264. POW May 26, 2011

    just imagine Alicia, Fantasia, CHristina or Jazmine singing this song….it would be a MILLION times better. Beyonce you’re a great performer, but you can’t SANG.

  265. POW May 26, 2011

    and i want to know who wrote this and produced it. Kudos to that person, NOT stealyoncé.

  266. Misfit May 26, 2011

    @ Jesse Lopez *dead* I heard her sing algeba too! Lmao.

    Bey does need to work on her dialect and pronunciation.

  267. brazio May 26, 2011

    And when she said “You” “Too”….It’s totally copied on Prince/Alicia.

    Still no originality at all….and it lack soul for a song like this i agree.

  272. KATERINAPAVLIAOLA May 26, 2011

  282. AyisheMoore May 26, 2011

  292. chrisj May 26, 2011

    *sings* Hey, I Dont Know Much About Britney Spears But I Know, That Be, -Yonce, Is The TRUTH! lol

  293. aisha May 26, 2011

    she didn’t do the song justice when she performed it on Idol. sounds better on record, i can feel the vibes here, on Idol I was just bored, didn’t feel anything. the song’s all right.

  294. Camp11 May 26, 2011

    in relations to the live show she did on American Idol. I am in love with this song, but this is her first time doing it live so i will give her some slack. her vocals have been off since she came back. The paino cover was not whats up, and it sounded like she was strugglin a lil. I love the song have it ok repeat but still everything is just ok at this point. I love her for what she has done in the past but this is just ok…… Maybe it’s our own fault for putting her up so high too soon. don’t get me wrong she is great but not on the level of an ICON just yet. I love yu Bey and hope ur ablum 4 get to #1. and I will be buying it as well as every single i can find on itunes…. =-X =-X =-X : :-

  295. Camp11 May 26, 2011

    I think The Dream wrote this one for her.

  296. nice_girl May 26, 2011

    I love this song….I think ‘I Care’, ‘I Miss You’, ‘Best Thing I Never Had’ and ‘I Was Here’ are going to be very soulful songs, by looking at the song titles. I can’t wait for the live performances.

  297. nice_girl May 26, 2011

    And it’s currently at #36 climbing from #54, but RTW has dropped to #20 after being at #14 for a while. I used to not like RTW, but after seeing it live on Oprah, I absolutely love it.

  298. Shawn101 May 26, 2011

    @Camp11 – You’re absolutely right, people have put this woman on a pedestal way too high. That’s alot of pressure to put on one person. And, now she’s not living up to the “hype” that others have created around her. Maybe this was what needed to happen. I think the public needed a slice of “humble pie”, because people put Beyonce on this level of being a “God”. Constantly telling others to, “Bow down to the Queen” is an act of worship. Period. I mean, I like the woman and enjoy her singing and music. But “bowing down”? Seriously? It’s just music people, not the second coming. With her not reaching #1 on the charts like everybody kept saying, it just goes to show you that Beyonce is human at the end of the day and that she will not be #1 at everything. And, that’s o.k. It doesn’t make her less of an artist, it just shows that she’s going to have “ups and downs” just like any other artist. People need to stop blowing smoke up her ass and making her out to be this “perfect” person. Stop with all of this, “snatching wigs” and “slaying” s***. People are expecting for her to do too much, and when she doesn’t deliver on that, then people feel let down. The further you guys keep pushing her up to “god” like status, the harder she’s going to fall.

  299. jusletitrok May 26, 2011

    END OF TIME is going to be her next SINGLE which is ALSO a MESS of a SONG!!! She just does not have REAL SOUL singer TALENT, she is too POP!! She just does not translate SOUL singing well even when she attempts to make it RAW it sounds like a contribed, controlled MESSS. I dont kno what you all are hearing but i hear ALOT of FORCED over singing and straining with absolutely NO SOUL, song is a MESS. ORG!! Hopefully she willl take a LONG break after this album drops because she NEEDS it, the 4 songs ive heard from her from this album are all a disjointed MESSS, i see why she had to retool it. I will not be buying this ish anytime if the rest is like the four ive heard!!

  300. GangsterA May 26, 2011

    oh my god its so beautiful her voice is just so amazing

  301. jahlal May 26, 2011

  303. Beyonce and Cb Fan May 26, 2011

    Wow! This awesome. @blairdevereaux
    I agree, The song has a dangerously in Love feel I think this album will be a mixture of DIL and B’day x 10! Heard the song by youtube its broken here.

  304. MuzikJunkie May 26, 2011

    This is the truth, idc what nobody says Bey SANG the hell out of this song!

  305. ohmeohmy May 26, 2011

    Y’all are some simple a$$ negros if u think beyodel is “soulful”..smh..Wack..and yes I hate wackness…but I guess the crack baby generation would think that this is a hit..a hit of “crack”..cocaine is a hellofadrug!

  306. bey’knight brutal May 26, 2011

  307. Robier May 26, 2011

    Lol feelings are being spilled

  308. jrizza May 26, 2011

    THis song is full of soul, and you know it’s true. YOu can argue that others are not but i think she did it on this one. It kind of remind me of some songs i heard on cadallac Records

  309. youcansaywhateveryoulike May 26, 2011

  313. killyaselfhaters May 27, 2011

    Checkout Beyonce Rehearses 1±1 Backstage at American Idol!!!!! In her dressing room singing straightup its on Google.

  314. Dr. Millennium May 27, 2011

    SHE TURNED TO AMERICAN IDOL THINKING THAT THE SONG WOULD RACE UP THE CHARTS; THE WAY “NOTHING” DID WHEN JANET JACKSON WENT ON AMERICAN IDOL AND PERFORMED “AGAIN, NASTY, “NOTHING”, THAT NIGHT JANET’S PERFORMANCE SHOT TO NUMBER 1 ON ITUNES SO FAST; SO AGAIN BEYONCE IS COPYING THE “GODDESS” IT IS ONLY ONE “JANET JACKSON”. THIS TELLS ME THAT BEYONCE IS SHOOTING FOR A #1 BECAUSE SHE IS PRESSED THAT RIHANNA HAS 10 #1′S ON THE HOT 100. TO GO ON AMERICAN IDOL BACK TO BACK SAYS SOMETHING, SHE IS HUNGRY FOR THAT NUMBER ONE; AND THIS SONG HAS NOT EVEN MADE IT INTO THE ITUNES TOP 10, SO YEAH SHE SLAYED.

  315. killyaselfhaters May 28, 2011

    Dr.Millenium! You’re A Damn Fool! Her Album Will Go Triple Platinum,Ryan Seacrest told you Haters ,she’s a icon.Her fans love her andRt she will continue to execute!!!!!!! Lmbao!!!!! The people want her on the show.Duh!!!! Ya Think? She already has a huge fanbase,f*** itunes! Her cd will sellout,and her concerts and dvd’s!!!!! So Stop Hating Aight

  316. killyaselfhaters May 28, 2011

    Have A Good Weeknight

  317. danny b June 1, 2011

    @DR MILLENIUM

    You sound pressed as hell to go through all that trouble to analyze the thoughts and mind process of Beyonce Knowles-Carter. You sound more like a closet stan. The funny thing is Beyonceis not here for you. so GTFO.

    That Is All.

  318. tracy November 29, 2011

    agreed beyonce has no soul, even keri hilson has more soul in her voice than bee .listen to keri hilson hustler and energy that chick has more soul den beyonce hands down.

  319. BEYONCE IS FADING FAST November 29, 2011

    nobody is listening to the garbage beyonce puts out AND I AGREE KERI HILSON IS A BETTER ARTIST THAN BEYONCE HANDS DOWN!!!!!!!!!!

  320. BEYONCE IS FADING FAST November 29, 2011

    YOU KNOW PRETTY GIRL ROCK CHARTED HIGHER THAN ALL BEYONCES SINGLES LIKE EGO COUNTDOWN AT LAST PARTY AND THIS SONG TOO.
