Six albums but what album campaign had your favourite lead single kicking off the era?

Wasn't sure whether to put XO or Drunk In Love for BEYONCÉ but the former was released slightly earlier so decided on that. Discuss the latter too if you like!!

I'm not crazy about any of those anymore, really...just overplay, that's all. I voted for Formation.

Gone for Formation! If I had to rank them it would look like this:

1 Formation
2 Deja Vu
3 Crazy in Love
4 XO
5 If I Were a Boy
6 Run the World

To be completely honest, I find this list pretty weak though. I often find the next singles much stronger than her leads.

Dangerously In Love - All of Baby Boy, Me Myself & I and Naughty Girl.
B'day - Irreplaceable
Sasha Fierce - Single Ladies, Ego, Sweet Dreams, Broken Hearted Girl
4 - Best Thing I Never Had, End of Time, Love On Top, Countdown
Beyonce - Drunk In Love, Pretty Hurts
Lemonade - Sorry, Hold Up

I prefer all of those singles above to the lead singles of their respective campaigns ^ ohmy.gif

'Crazy In Love' definitely out of these options! It would be 'Drunk In Love' if that was the lead single from her self-titled, though.

Formation by far.

01 Formation
02 Run the World (Girls)
03 Crazy in Love
04 XO
05 If I Were a Boy
06 Deja Vu

'Beyoncé' is my favourite album of hers but XO is one of the most corny on there.

Formation for me! 'XO' is an easy second though, those top two are in her top 10 for me. wub.gif

I kind of agree with this and if we are including it then it's my #1. It suits her so well and I never once got tired of it, I feel like it has the potential to be her big iconic song in the future wub.gif

I didn't even realise until now but Single Ladies and If I Were a Boy were actually released on the same day, a bit like XO & Drunk In Love! But IIWAB entered much higher in the UK Charts and peaked here earlier than Single Ladies did so I guess, kind of the lead single ?! heehee.gif
