The much anticipated singles from Beyonce have finally leaked – “If I Were A Boy” in tagged form, and the uptempo dance track, “Single Ladies.” The two singles are set to impact radio next Tuesday, while Beyonce’s third project titled I Am… will drop November 18th.
“If I Were A Boy” is a pop ballad, which finds Beyonce in a sweet spot vocally, and is produced by Toby Cad (“Big Girls Don’t Cry” for Fergie), while the Tricky Stewart and The Dream-produced “Single Ladies” feels more like “Get Me Bodied,” and will be service to urban radio. I must admit, this new material has me quite excited, as well as the statements that have been released by producers and Beyonce herself. Can’t wait to see what Sean, Rodney and Timbaland have done for her.
Check out Beyonce’s MySpace and stay locked to CL for more updates on Bey’s project!
I think single ladies sounds like a watered down, less dancey version of get me bodied!
i freakin love if i were a boy,and i like the end of single ladies
Soooo HOTTT!!!!!
Loves “If I were a boy”, “Single ladies” will probably have to grown on me I don’t dislike the song though it has a nice catchy beat.
can’t hear it…is there another link?
YESS YESSSS YESSS!! THA QUEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TAKE THAT RHIANNA!!!!!!!!! SHE BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE IT!!!!
Yeah I like the if i were a boy track, singel ladies not so much, would like to see what else b got for us…
SHES BACK!!!!!!!!!!!
I love both songs and that cover is HOT!!!!!
I am a BIG Bey fan, but I don’t like “If I Were A Boy”, but the lyrics are tha truth!
Yep @ Brian, “Single Ladies” has that “Get Me Bodied” feel to it.
Come on Bey! You can do soooo much better, and I’ve seen soo much better! Damn, I’m disappointed.
IM feelin if i were a boy! love it and singel ladies!! lol @ 6
rhianna non sigin asss
I LOVE IT “IF I WERE A BOY” IS SOOOOOOOOO HOT AND REAL
“If I Were A Boy” is very heartfelt, its just too purposefully made for the radio!
y does if i were a boy remind me of irreplaceable and y must she always have to scream when she sings same concept as ciaras like a boy aint surprised but its a nice song
YES! SHE’S BACK!! I’M LOVING THE FACT SHE’S COVERING ALL FORMATS, SMART MOVE. DEFINITELY LOVING THE SONGS. SHE’S IN TOP VOCAL FORM. AT LEAST WE DON’T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO SING THESE SONGS LIVE UNLIKE SOME OTHER FEMALE ARTISTS WHO CAN’T SING THEIR SONGS LIVE.
I love the lyrics if I Were A Boy hate the beat sounds to Irreplaceable to me
Singles Ladies I wasn’t feeling it a t first but now I can’t stop listening to it maybe because I am a Single Lady LOL
Get em Bee
I am sooo ready for this cd
sry but both songs are AWFUL
garbage
DISAPPOINTED!
I hope CL doesnt crash today lol, i predict 250 posts!
@ 15
I agree she is smart
the first song pop
2nd song R&B
and not feeling single ladies get me bodied was soooo much better
Don’t like her version of IF I were a Boy. Single Ladies does remind of Get Me Bodied too. Not feeling neither one.
I love B but both songs have to grow on me !
Love If I Were A Boy!!!! Single ladies is awful!!!
While neither song is an instant hit for me, I really appreciate “If I Were A Boy.” I have a feeling this is the song that means more to Bee, while “Single Ladies” is more of a safety net. I like the former better though. I will be buying the album regardless!
I really like “If I Were A Boy.” Has a popish feel to it, but the lyrics and vocals are great.
“Single Ladies” reminds me of “Check On It.” It’s fun and catchy – “If you like it then you shoulda put a ring on it.” Guess Jay FINALLY got the message…LOL!
They both suck 2 me! If I Were A Boy is kool, but it’s mediocre at best. Single Ladies is GARBAGE dump!
i love both songs,get it girl
I was expecting something even more different than Bday. Single ladies is reminiscent of get me bodied.
I do hear the growth.
And I’m shocked to say myself, i love both of the songs.
I got a new track to listen to on the treadmill: single ladies.
At # 20 Yeah its about get to heated up in here.
Both songs are ok minus the screaming. Just what you would expect from Beyonce. I never listen to the radio but since she’s back I’m for sure never turning it back on. People go crazy for Beyonce too damn hard for me.
I’m the world’s biggest Bey fan but “If I were a boy” is BORING as hell!! The lyrics are cool-needs a different track-I almost fell asleep on that one! Single ladies is ok but i’ve heard better (and similar) from Bey. I’ll take “Beautiful Nightmare” over BOTH of these tracks. Maybe “Single Ladies” will grow on me, but I can’t get with that other one, especially since me (and Bey) are well beyond messing around with “boys”. High schoolers will probably love this one but I moved on to MEN honey!!
i love single ladies ,i can’t wait for the club
These songs are absolutely TERRIBLE
I haven’t heard “Single Ladies”, but I love “If I were a Boy”!
Can somebody give me a link to “Single Ladies”? For some reason I can’t get through with the one link above.
bow down bitc*es ,the queen is back
disappointed
sorry but wow day after mitchelle cd drop her songs get leak-can’t share the spotlight
b need to review the remaining 68 songs and come harder
“If I Was a Boy”- Hate this song, hate the concept of the song. Next time do a song that is not like any other song that came out before ( Ciara-” like a boy”)
“Single Ladies”- okay, but this song reminds me of “Get My Bodie” I thought she just got married, why the fu*k is she talking about single ladies, WTF?
I so prefer Solange music over her music
This post is going to reach 200+!!!! Single Ladies reminds me of Get Me Bodied and I’m not feeling it. If I Were a Boy is just okay. I’m not feeling it either, but vocally she sounds great.
Omg I love her and both songs are FIRE !!!
That woman vocals are on point…LOVE LOVE LOVE IT.
SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO EXCITED THAT BEYONCE IS BACK
Beyonce is so over rated both songs are not good. She only got far due to her looks and the sex she sells in her videos and the tours she have done. It’s time for someone else to take the stage and make the money. She and her husband need to give their lives over to the Lord. Because everything they have they both will loose and God is seeking for their souls to be saved like many others. Happiness will never come if they don’t except God in their lives.. beyonce is a demon possessed entertainer like many of them.
The Queen Bey is OFFICIALLY back!
I have both song in full rotation in my office…i probably will know the words by 2:00pm! lol
But I must admit…I am loving “If I were a boy” the best!
well, immo have to hear the songs a couple of more times to really know if there great songs. my first opinion though is bey might have t o prepare herself for a dismal “usher comeback”!! i not to impressed on hearing these songs the first time around. but i still LOVE myself some bey!
Just ok.
I love how she is changing her delivery and her approach to songs about relationships. Practically every R&B song is about relationships and changing the approach to it is welcome. Great job B. Looking forward to the album!
I know the “If I Were A Boy” Song will grow on me. I just was expecting something more from Beyonce. I mean it’s hot but I just expected more. That Beautiful Nightmare song was my ish and I really just expected more. I mean her voice sounds great as usual but this ballad needs something idk.
Single Ladies idk bout this one either. Come on Beyonce! I was really expecting more. I mean but how did she really expect to top Get Me Bodied and Irreplaceable. I know she wont dissappoint but even so come on B!
SMH not feeling either, all this hype i would expect something completely different but this is recycled stuff. I’ll have to give these 2 a thumbs down.
HEEEELL NO TO THAT SILHOUET. AINT NOTHIN NATURAL! these photoshop folks keep killin me .
Absolutely love If i were a boy. Definately see myself singing out loud to this one lol
Single ladies is ok, something to make me move to, maybe it will grow on me
Love Beyonce & All that she does!!!!
Jeeze!
i love it…beyonce..single ladies is gonna be a club joint….and beyonce if i were a boy i love it cuz it shows that beyonce and afraid of tryning anything new…..
I am truly disapointed. I don’t know if i’m going to buy the new CD. I will have to borrow someone’s CD and listen to the rest of it before I spend my money. And since these are the singles that means I have to be tortured and listen to them on the radio for the next few months. Ugh!
THIS ISHH IS WEAK . HOW MANY WOMAN ANTHEMS ARE YOU GOING TO GIVE US .BORING BEYONCE,STRIKES AGAIN .
sound like shit shit to me! Sorry B you gonna have to do better
sound like shit shit to me! Sorry B you gonna have to do better
WACK!!! Both songs are straight corny all she doing is yelling on If I was a boy. I couldn’t even listen to the whole thing. Beyonce is super wack and dated.
i luv how little to no promotion went into michelle’s album, yet beyonce is gonna be pushed down our throats for the next few months.
its a sad situation
LIKE I SAID IN THE LAST TOPIC KARMA IS A BISH AND THESE SUB-PAR STANDARD SONGS PROVE MY POINT!!! THE FALL OF BEYONCE HAS BEGUN!!!!!!!!!!!!
bc jean did if i were a boy betta than beyonce. single ladies is wack
