Well I watched the video. It's pretty good, but kind of what I expected somehow. It never makes the leap into "wow" territory. Strong enough though.

By the way, if a guy brought out a song about men ruling the world, he'd be torn to pieces. Why is it ok for a woman to sing a song about women ruling the world?
Because women have always been oppressed. Men have not.

It's the same reason why the NAACP is not viewed the same way as white nationalists groups (KKK, BNP).

These groups have different histories, and for Mr. GimmeSomeRiver, there are more women than men making up universities. They have A LOT of power.

I honestly think she should hold her album off until the fall. Right now Gaga has such a stranglehold on the "diva" market in terms of hype (I'd say this is why Femme Fatale hasn't done better) that Beyonce will just get lost in the shuffle as well, as we've seen with the lackluster performance for "Run The World". By September or so, "Born This Way" will already be four months old and some of the hype will have died down that Beyonce can bask in her moment better. Right now she's going to be overshadowed by Gaga's album.

What is this? A new song from the album?

It's wayyy better than the first single anyway. Still not loving it though.

Especially when the material is below par.

Oh my... Brilliant performance! Maybe the best in a long, long time. DIVA!

It's a pity it didn't help with the charts. The song is still at #30 on US iTunes

You can't force people to buy a shit song, no matter how brilliant(and it was brilliant)the performance or video. I like Bee a lot, but I'm glad that this single has flopped. Hopefully the album won't be full of wank like this.

while hardly in the position to loose her sleep over the floppage of her single, i think bee underestimated gaga's impact when deciding to plan a comeback at the same time as her. she really should have pulled the new release back for a couple of months or so.

the single may be weak at best, but it's sort of infectious, and she definitely made her best to sell it with that performance. i mean, wow, this woman is such a hurricane on stage and the amazing effects just underlined it. a truly iconic, amazing performance.

It's a real shame that such a genius performance was somewhat wasted on that poor song though.
