Beyonce - 4

That's cool, but I seriously recommend that plugin...good for mp3 streams just about everywhere.

I've said this a half dozen times, but everyone should seriously take a google at audials tunebite

That looks like it records the stream, though. DLHelper grabs it straight from its non-hidden or hidden location on the server.

all that and a bagga chips honestly

what is a how to dress well?

Honestly, I love B's vocal performance on 1+1, especially the growly gritty bits, but Terius pulls off the awkward octave jump "YOU!"s in a way that doesn't sound totally at odds with the song. Smoother phrasing or whatever. Can't decide which is better. (Also, this was supposed to be on Love King? And got left off? WTF?)

Also, the guitar solo on Terius' version is A++.

I assume it was left off because Terius wanted to make some money out of it.

yeah i think he tends to have a pretty good idea of whether a song works best for him or would work better for another singer

if i were a boy is one of the most disney songs to come out in the past few years, which i guess is why i hated it at first, but i kind of appreciate how it makes no mistake in trying to be something else. that's just what it is. kind of love it now.

beyonce's vocal cadences are much better than terius's

she really slays this

between this and the current Melanie Fiona single i love, it'd be nice if big bombastic stadium soul ballads became a thing

i'm on my knees sobbing atm

^^yo

i have listened to "1+1" 18 times since yesterday nbd

yeah i'm so happy that rehearsal video exists

thx jay-z

thank you based j. hova

She finally does a relatively traditional r&b song right. :)

This song is amazing, and Terius was definitely right to judge that it needed a better voice than his, Beyonce slays it. It's a traditional R&B song *and* a rock power ballad.

Wondering if this might be the "better than Umbrella" song that Terius has been trailing for a while.

Ha, he says that all the time. "Hard", that song that ended up being a bonus track on the Diddy album

didn't that turn out to be the worst song on Last Train To Paris? xpost

Didn't he also say "Take Care of Me" was the best song he'd ever written or something

Haha okay yeah he's full of shit really.

"Hard", that song that ended up being a bonus track on the Diddy album

that was "change" (but yeah, that was the one he was referring to) (and it's not even that good)

What i meant was he said that about "Hard" and about "Change". Poorly constructed sentence.

Have any of you non-Jukebox dudes checked out Reba McEntire's version of "If I Were a Boy"? Pretty excellent.

but "'laying' right next to you"? come on terius

loving that video

I like the arrangements/prod of "1+1" but the song itself doesn't seem that great and strong to me. it's good though. I've tried to d/l beyonce's version but couldn't so far. anyone got a link ? I think dream's version lacks some personality. and of course, definitely a pricne vibe alhtough I couldn't tell what song precisely, beside purple rain...

i think this is the first 10/10 song of the year for me

sorta agree

ehhhhhhh

i think it's my #1 song of the year right now narrowly edging out GUCCI GUCCI

u_u

listened to this song six times on repeat as i walked home drunk last night

10/10

i think it's my #1 song of the year right now narrowly edging out GUCCI GUCCI

her vocals this era are insane!!

wow. so excited for the rest of this album

damn

"sucks to be you right now" lolz

this song!!

this song ... sucks

Love "1+1" and grew to not hate "Run the World," but this is just horrible imo.

she had to beat Gaga to the Bruce Hornsby revival

when did she get a decent low range

Love the vox, don't like the sub-Vanessa Carlton Lillith pop.

Everything about 1+1 is awes.
It reminds me of SOTY-era Prince where the songs were "OK" but the performance/production cured diseases

Don't care for the other one.

Yeah, Vanessa Carlton was the first thing I thought of when I heard this one too.
