Love both tracks, can't wait for the new album. smile.gif I can't decide which one i like more though, but i do like the IIWAB video better.
Martin
I didn't like Single Ladies at first, but i listened to it a few times, now I really like it.

If I Were A Boy is still my fave though tongue.gif
*robyna

Martin

this album is kinda mediocre. Her upbeat songs are kinda stupid.
Simon_L
The Single Ladies video makes the song.
skitzy chic
I saw put a ring on it on tv and then heard if I was a boy. I was like wtf, is this the 2nd single, shes only just put the other one out.
Anyone know why shes put two out at the same time?? Guess its to get interest in the album??
Martin
It's a double A-side single. She's doing that with all the singles on this album becaus there are two cds on it, beyonce (If I Were A Boy) and Sasha (Single Ladies).
care bear delta
heart.gif Beyonce her two new songs are great.
Unwritten
basically all the Beyonce side are ballads/slow songs and the Sasha side are dance/upbeat tracks.

IMO it's stupid release a 2 CD set, with each cd featuring 6-8 songs. She should just add all the songs into 1 CD.
delta*butterfly♥
I think the 2 disc idea with Beyoncé and Sasha is quite clever! At least it means there're 16 songs on the album instead of the average 12ish.
Martin
But she looks skitzophernic. She full thinks that when she performs she is Sasha Fierce, and when she's 40 and telling her children her story they'll be like "WHO IS SASHA?" and then she'll regret it tongue.gif
Stop the Train
You can now listen to the WHOLE album on her myspace!

She's fantastic. I have only heard a few tracks from the new album, but I love what I've heard. Also loved her in DC. I'm looking forwad to hearing more of the new album
markndelta
I bought the album today.

I much prefer "I AM" to "SASCHA FIERCE".

I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE 'HALO'. It's amazing. Currently on repeat. I also love IIWAB, and some others. Still getting used to it.
Knowlesey
Actually I prefer Sasha to I Am, but yes Halo HAS to be the next single! ohmy.gif
Martin
The next singles will be released much like IIWAB/SL(PAROI), they will be from "I Am..." - Halo, and from "Sasha Fierce" - Diva.

Though I believe Diva will be released before Halo like IIWAB was to SL.

It's def Diva, she's already done the video.

I love Radio, and Beautiful Nightmare. But otherwise the single was planned as Halo with Ego (feat Kanye West), which wasn't recorded quick enough to make it on the album.

But then again she promised she'd make a DVD which featured Music Video's for all her songs on the albums, which she did for most songs on 'Bday'.

Here's some pics from the upcoming 'Diva' video

EDIT: Haha, I just wrote the old demo name for 'Sweet Dreams' tongue.gif
beltagoodone23

markndelta
ewwwwwwww. diva is crap sad.gif

I also like Disappear, BHG and Sweet Dreams
beltagoodone23
im addicted to sweet dreams and diva isnt doing anything for me
Martin
Mine would go

1. Broken-Hearted Girl
2. Smash Into You
3. Single Ladies
4. Save The Hero
5. Ave Maria or Scared of Lonely

I can't choose! I also love Si Yo Fuera un Chico the spanish IIWAB, it sounds really cool.
visualise-this
Loving the album, its amazing! Can't wait till she tours again, easily the best concert i've been too!

Martin
OMG, WHY DO I HAVE TO BE CAPPED dry.gif

Beyonce is an idiot/genious. Idiot because she is releasing "Diva" IMO the worst song on IA...SF and Genious for releasing "Halo" a radio friendly song and masterpiece.

yeah...Diva is purrrrr crap!


single cover btw

i've grown to like Diva... i think after you listen to it alot you begin to like it, which was the case with Single Ladies!

LOVE the Diva cover heart.gif
Unwritten
idk if i'll like "Diva" i hope that song doesnt play on Mainstream radio...I hope "Halo" is the main single...like "IIWAB" was.

and oh anyways the cover...both rubbish. doe Halo's nice a bit.
Martin
Yeah but Diva will probably be a bigger hit in the US, and Halo will be bigger in UK and Australia... it happened with SL (PAROI) and IIWAB... but i did prefer SL from the two.

Also with the covers, they look better then the other two singles... I really like the picture they used for Diva, it looks amazing!

I don't mean to hijack your thread, but I felt I had to draw your attention to this (if you haven't already seen it):

Alexandra Burke & Beyoncé Knowles - Listen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=naywkWmsB4A

An absolutely incredible performance and magical moment. happy.gif

And as an extra, here is Alexandra performing a beautiful acappella version of Listen at her homecoming concert in Camden: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-norEULJD0M
I was lucky enough to watch this performance live and it was simply amazing. biggrin.gif

Check out more of Alexandra here. whistling.gif

Lol, yeah I know. I implied that songs from 'Sasha Fierce' will do generally better in the US, where as songs from 'I Am...' will do better in the UK and Australia where If I Were A Boy peaked at #1 and #3, where as Single Ladies peaked at #20 and #6.

YOU SEE ARTIN laugh.gif

Diva has also grown on me!

I haaaaaaated it, but now I don't mind it.

I tend to skip Ave Maria now cos its a bit wishywashy slow and soppy.

I looooove halo, loooooove sweet dreams, loooooooove radio.

I looove hwo she sings radio. She sounds fkn awesome!

love the album! cant wait for a tour!


ps/ martin the videos have been removed anyway so dont be too upset. sad.gif gna try n find now.


edit: both vids are pretty boring. meh
Martin
i'll re-add the links when they've been added to Beyonce's youtube channel.

I think with Diva, when first heard it is just like the 'gangster' one, but then after a while it sort of blends with the album.

Word on the street is that "Smash Into You" will be released with "Radio" as the new singles... hmm what do you think of that? I adore Smash Into You and Radio so I don't mind... I'm hoping for the 'fourth double single'(7th and 8th) it'll be Sweet Dreams/Broken Hearted Girl.

ANOTHER EXCITING FACT, like 'B'day' Beyonce plans to release a video Anthology with videos for most songs on the album! YAY
