I wouldn’t say Beyoncé’s version lacks emotion; rather that her emotions are different because she is at a different point in the relationship than BC Jean sang from in the original. I see and hear a tired, frustrated BEYOND tears and anger, resigned form of acceptance in Beyoncé’s version. By acceptance, I do NOT mean to imply that it’s okay to treat anyone that way OR that the woman is letting things continue as if the relationship were healthy. Having been through this scenario myself, I can easily imagine this song sung from several different viewpoints all held by the same woman, just at different points in time. In my own experience with this kind of pain,, I did eventually accept that I couldn’t change him, and from that point on, I made decisions for myself that were no longer based on the future I once hoped for with him. On on the way to that resigned acceptance, you can bet I felt everything in BC Jean’s version, too ... and now I am somewhere else entirely and feeling strong and much more myself than I ever felt when I was still with the cad. Of course, I might simply be reading into this because I have unfortunately been there. ;-)

She then thought if I were a boy I'd eat it and not give a shit then she went on about all the things she would do different if she were a boy. Then the fella with her got a pen and wrote all this down and made it into a song and took her into the studio. Yes she did do it but not on her own he helped a lot.

You listen to the song it's clear Beyonce changed a few words but contributed nothing to the actual creative process. However Beyonce was getting a higher percentage then both she and Colby combined. So she threatened to sue if this was not adjusted. Beyonce team didn't want the trouble so they settled with her. All was well until Beyonce continued to claim she wrote it which created some bad blood. But she had the last laugh when someone leaked the original. Proving that Beyonce was out right lying. That's when Beyonce changed her story and pretty much said she had no idea of the issues behind the song....then why did you claim to write it? And even have an origin story? Idc that she didn't write it I didn't like that she lied. This is when the songwriting issues began to come to light.

Yeah.... But like in Nashville... There's a writer's culture so people almost always say the name of a writer when the perform in smaller arenas or other performances... Just not always big awards shows. But it's a thing there... Like manners to give props to song writers. I thought it was weird when I first moved there... Like who cares???? Ohhhhhhh because a good song is GOLD and someone let you wear their good!!!! Yup.

You don’t know how many songs aren’t written by the people who sing then do you? This is normal practice in the music industry. Some artists wrote songs and for various reasons give/ sell them to other artists.

Beyoncé bought the song from BC and gave her the writing credits. Beyoncé only credited herself for the production. So don’t speak if you don’t know anything. And as for the vocals, maybe YOU think BC sings better, but objectively that is not true. Beyoncé has much better technique and a much stronger voice.

@@hannahlove8949 Actually BC was only informed about Beyonce releasing her song after the single was due to be released. She wasn't even informed that her song had been sold. The co-writer went behind her back and sold it to Beyonce. Only after it came to light did BC and Beyonce reach a deal about the writing credits etc... BC Jean never intended to sell this song. That's why people are a bit salty about it.

Beyonce has always claimed she has co-written every song she has ever recorded. Most of Beyonce's songs has 4 or more writers. She has the whole arsenal of writers, producers and so on. I bet even her self-titled album artwork was planned by nine people - a rip off from AC/DC Back in Black - but AC/DC won't sue Beyonce because it would be ridiculous to claim own the right for black background and basic font.

@personalyt67288 жыл бұрын
+Connor Jerry u people just hate Beyonce... coz this girls couldn't even sing the first chorus without going off key.. just because somebody writes a song doesn't mean their version of it is the best...let's just be honest.. this girl has almost zero vocal ability. any good vocalist will notice that she is telling on the texture of her voice and being emotional to further her performance. she has horrible breathe control and I rely tiny range. she is struggling so much vocally and anybody who really knows vocals can hear that. I'm telling u all this because I'm an artist too. singer and songwriter. I'm mature enough to understand that not everything I write is best sang by me. that would be a huge lie
@personalyt67288 жыл бұрын
Connor Jerry lol, thats the worst excuse for bad singing i ever heard. im pretty sure she herself noticed that she made a mistake too.. the backup singer also followed her in hopes of covering it but but it didnt work. u could still hear it. well, if u understand how music works. see instruments play the music in a certain key, and the singer is supposed to sing in accordance with that key in order for it to be music.. if not then its just noise. music is all about organizing sound. and thats the aim of every musician. thats why she doesnt make the same mistake the second time the chorus came around. coz she knows too that that aint how its supposed to sound. whether its her song or not, the rules of music are what they are. ur argument is something that only somebody with no real knowledge of music would say ... going off key has nothing to do with who wrote what...going off key is what helps distinguish a good singer and a bad one... if u dont understand what going off key is, ill make it easier for u. it means ur voice is not in sync with the music...
