I don't think Beyoncé is particularly the kind of album that requires a sequel either. As much as I'd love another Bey album, it's far too soon!

So there was a part truth in the situation then!
Interesting! A much better idea than a brand new album in my opinion. I'm glad we're finally getting the "Flawless" remix and I'm looking forward to hearing the three new songs. A shame the audio of "Grown Woman" isn't included also but there is a lot of material on the four discs already anyway so I'll let her off :P

Yeah the album did not need a sequel or anything to continue from it, so a deluxe (or "platinum") edition is good. Might have to get hold of this too as it's the definitive collection for the era.

 

Ugh can she just release 'Mine' though before she rounds it all off? :(

I was hoping 'Blow' would be a single at some point but not if the remix features Pharrell!
I can't wait to own the Flawless Remix and Drunk In Love Remix! :cheer: They've been needing proper iTunes releases for ages!

They're really milking it on iTunes. I wish just looking and they now have...

 

BEYONCE (Original album)

BEYONCE (audio only album) - PREORDER

BEYONCE: Platinum Edition - PREORDER

BEYONCE: Platinum Edition (More) EP - PREORDER

 

The last one is basically just the Platinum edition without the 2CD original album.

"Ring Off" snippet has been leaked.

 

The Platinum Edition has leaked, although y'all should really wait two days and buy it.

 

04 | 7/11 - Complete WTF moment

11 | Flawless (Remix)

10 | Drunk In Love (Remix)

10 | Ring Off - LOVE IT!

08 | Blow (Remix) - very similar to the original version

08 | Standing on the Sun - love this remix and glad the song made the album in some form

I hope you love 7/11 soon, April. Embrace that ratchet mess for the fun moment it is! :wub:

 

I doubt I'll be buying the Platinum Edition, way too expensive for what it is really.

7/11 is SO good. Second to Drunk in Love on the whole album/era.

 

Ring Off is boring.

 

How come you can't buy platinum edition in full on iTunes?

 

 

EMERGENCY EDIT: I now love Ring Off, too.

Beyonce’s surprise album 1 year on: 10 amazing #ChartFacts

24/11/2014

We look back on the success of Beyonce's surprise album a year after its release.

 

Almost a year ago (11 months and 12 days ago to be precise), Beyonce caught the music world unawares with the surprise release of her fifth studio album Beyonce.

 

And the release - which came after months of rumours, touring, Pepsi commercials and a show-stopping Super Bowl performance – did not disappoint. Not only did the record receive rave reviews (it made several influential end-of-year album lists), each track was accompanied by its own music video, giving you plenty of Beyonce for your buck.

 

With a special Platinum Edition of the collection including new tracks and remixes featuring Pharrell Williams and Nicki Minaj out this this week, Official Charts look back at the the incredible success of Beyonce one year on.

 

Despite being released on a Friday, Beyonce debuted at Number 5 on the Official Albums Chart that Sunday.

 

In just 48 hours, it sold 68,000 copies in the UK.

 

On December 16 2013, Apple announced that Beyoncé was the fastest selling album in the history of the iTunes Store, selling almost 830,000 digital copies in its first three days of availability.

 

Five weeks after its release, the album peaked on the chart at Number 2. The record has so far spent 13 weeks in the Top 10 and 21 weeks in the Top 40.

 

To date, the record has sold 418,000 copies in the UK, making it the 14th best-selling album of 2014 so far.

 

Beyonce was certified Platinum by the British Phonographic Industry on February 7th, denoting UK shipments of 300,000 copies.

 

As of November 2014, Beyonce has sold 5 million copies worldwide.

 

Drunk In Love is the biggest UK single from the LP. It peaked at Number 9 on the Official Singles Chart in January and to date has sold 458,000 copies in the UK.

 

The Top 5 best-selling songs from the album are:

 

1 DRUNK IN LOVE BEYONCE FT JAY Z

2 XO BEYONCE

3 PARTITION BEYONCE

4 PRETTY HURTS BEYONCE

5 MINE BEYONCE FT DRAKE

 

This year, Beyonce has played 46 concerts - including her On The Run tour with Jay Z - and has performed to over 1.2 million people.

I honestly want Standing On The Sun to get a release, it's probably the second best song on the whole thing behind Flawless :(
