Hung Up! :D used to hear this loads in 2005, still sounds great

 

Might be a bit soon but "Hung Up" is already sounding like the best song ever. :wub: We'll see how I feel in a decade

Confessions On A Dance Floor was one of the best Madonna albums, plus the Confessions Tour was one of the best if not the best tour of her. Shame I couldn't watch her live at that time. :wub:

really sounds as great now as it did in 2006!! has not aged a day!

#31

 

Solo song from another superstar, who was initially a member of a girl band. And this song was taken from the bands #1s compilation album but didn't reach #1… well at least in the UK, because in the USA it did! Check On it!

Biography

Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter (/biːˈjɒnseɪ/ bee-YON-say; born September 4, 1981) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer and actress. Born and raised in Houston, Texas, she performed in various singing and dancing competitions as a child, and rose to fame in the late 1990s as lead singer of R&B girl-group Destiny's Child. Managed by her father, Mathew Knowles, the group became one of the world's best-selling girl groups of all time. Their hiatus saw the release of Beyoncé's debut album, Dangerously in Love (2003), which established her as a solo artist worldwide, earned five Grammy Awards and featured the Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles "Crazy in Love" and "Baby Boy".

 

Following the disbandment of Destiny's Child in June 2005, she released her second solo album, B'Day (2006), which contained hits "Déjà Vu", "Irreplaceable", and "Beautiful Liar". Beyoncé also ventured into acting, with a Golden Globe-nominated performance in Dreamgirls (2006), and starring roles in The Pink Panther (2006) and Obsessed (2009). Her marriage to rapper Jay Z and portrayal of Etta James in Cadillac Records (2008) influenced her third album, I Am... Sasha Fierce (2008), which saw the birth of her alter-ego Sasha Fierce and earned a record-setting six Grammy Awards in 2010, including Song of the Year for "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)". Beyoncé took a hiatus from music in 2010 and took over management of her career; her fourth album 4 (2011) was subsequently mellower in tone, exploring 1970s funk, 1980s pop, and 1990s soul. Her critically acclaimed fifth studio album, Beyoncé (2013), was distinguished from previous releases by its experimental production and exploration of darker themes.

 

A self-described "modern-day feminist", Beyoncé creates songs that are often characterized by themes of love, relationships, and monogamy, as well as female sexuality and empowerment. On stage, her dynamic, highly choreographed performances have led to critics hailing her as one of the best entertainers in contemporary popular music. Throughout a career spanning 19 years, she has sold over 118 million records as a solo artist, and a further 60 million with Destiny's Child, making her one of the best-selling music artists of all time. She has won 20 Grammy Awards and is the most nominated woman in the award's history. The Recording Industry Association of America recognized her as the Top Certified Artist in America during the 2000s decade. In 2009, Billboard named her the Top Radio Songs Artist of the Decade, the Top Female Artist of the 2000s and their Artist of the Millennium in 2011. Time listed her among the 100 most influential people in the world in 2013 and 2014. Forbes magazine also listed her as the most powerful female musician of 2015. - Wikipedia

sick ~:music:~

Love this song but it's probably Beyonce's worst music video IMO!

Two Legeneds one after the after :heart:

One of the catchiest Beyoncé songs as well, sounding so fresh as it's one I've never overplayed.

This is probably one of Beyoncé's worst for me unfortunately!

I completely forgot about this song until the recent Beyoncé discography rate. Truly a jam and several halves. :wub:

so-so song for me...

 

never understood was it was released as a Beyonce song, should have been released as a Destiny's Child song

Not releasing it at all would have been a better move.

#30

 

One of my favourite dance acts, and they've had only 1 top 10 hit (so far)… uninvited… But this was just inside the top 20 and immediately dropped down to #30.

 

Insane how many classics there are between 31-40. Check On It is...not really, but it's OK.
