Work It Out is alright and was a good opening solo single.

 

 

Most of these remind me just how much shit she has in her discography.

36. Get Me Bodied

Average - 6.15
Lovers - 10 (Davidson)
Haters - 3 (Nick F1 & blacksquare)



This is easily the Beyonce single that I listen to the least/never. It's catchy enough and I won't skip it if it comes on shuffle but she has way better party tunes and this is rather easily to overlook in her impressive discography. Would be much lower in my own countdown tbh but I don't hate it at all.

35. Run the World (Girls)

Average - 6.61
Lovers - 10 (Sean, Cremey & Riser)
Haters - 0 (mr aly) // 2 (Euphorique and Mack)



We have quite a jump in average points here as feminist anthem 'Run the World' makes it to #35. I remember being obsessed with this when it first dropped because I was so hungry for more Beyonce after falling in love with her in the I Am...Sasha Fierce era but it quickly wore off and nowadays I find it pretty annoying. Saying that, it's probably one of her most well remembered/lasting songs in the general public's memory so I'm a little shocked it's this low here :o

Buzzjack has always had a bit of an avertion to that song, oddly. It’s very popular otherwise.

Me, Myself, and I is one of my favorites, shame it placed so low.

Run The World is quite good!

Shocked to see "Me, Myself and I" so low! :o I know it's not that well-remembered especially in comparison to the other singles from 'Dangerously in Love' but I think it's a really beautiful song.

 

"Lift Off" is really really good, it's a shame that it never had a huge worldwide push as Jay-Z and Kanye were huge back in 2011/12 (not that they aren't still). "Run the World" is definitely one of Bey's classics, although I'm actually quite surprised that that and "Love on Top" are the two most well-remembered from '4' amongst the GP.

34. Check On It
Average - 6.63 (No 11's)
Lovers - 10 (josh and jonjo)
Haters - 2 (Aly & cameron)



Taken from B'Day and Destiny's Child greatest hits compilation '#1's'. 'Check On It' is the solo single that was released by Beyonce from the album. It was supposedly meant to appear on the soundtrack for the movie Pink Panther in which she starred in. However, this was scrapped and placed on #1's instead with Slim Thugs in the collab. The Single Version also features Bun B. It was also placed as a bonus track on B'Day due to its success, as it reached #1 in the US and New Zealand. As well as #3 in the UK.

Personally, as I said when it was Track Of The Week 'I am going to hold my hand up and say this isn't a Bey faves. I mean her parts are quite good and boppy. However, I am not a fan of the feature really. I think it could have worked without it and instead had some killer middle 8 before the final chorus. The video for Check On It is pretty forgettable too I do not remember it well as I once thought. Oops." Sorry to re-use old commentary but it sums up my feelings completely.

33. Put It In A Love Song (Alicia Keys featuring Beyoncé)

Average - 6.63 (1 11)
Lovers - 11 (Sean) // 10 (Jonjo)
Haters - 0 (nick f1) // 3 (george.keh and blacksquare)



Winning the tie between 33 and 34 is fellow RNB singer Alicia Keys's collab with Bey tilted 'Put It In A Love Song'. The song was taken from Alicia's album 'The Element of Freedom' which resulted in multiple singles one of which was this song. It only reached 18 in AUS, 3 in South Korea and 28 in Ireland. In fact, it was actually given a limited single push in the US due to them changing their mind and making Unthinkable (I'm Ready) as the single there.

My own score was 6 which is about right for how I feel about the song. It is alright I can see the appeal but I just find it to be alright, defo not her best collab effort. Which is still to come at some point.

WHY "Put it in a Love Song" wasn't pushed as a single in the UK, especially after the singles success that Alicia had from that album, I don't know! It's such a bop though and deserves a much higher score than that :(

Bump: Some more comments would be much appreciated.

Aww I really like Check On It although the video was rather poor from what I recall. Put It In A Love Song, however, was a lousy collab, especially when on paper a song with Alicia and Beyonce should've smashed effortlessly!

The Alicia Beyonce team up should have performed like Telephone, such a bop!

 

More results coming from me tonight!

32. Why Don't You Love Me?

Average - 6.72

 

 

Up next we have Why Don't You Love Me. Pleasant enough, it does pale in comparison to some of the other tracks and I am outraged it has finished above the Alicia Keys feature :( the video feels very vintage with some of the filters and looks too overly homemade for my liking :lol:

 

I adore Why Don't You Love Me so much why could it have not smashed :(

"Why Don't You Love Me?" is a huge tune but feels very out of place on 'I Am... Sasha Fierce'. I don't think I actually heard it until the video was released which is so camp and sassy *.* It is a shame that they didn't give it a proper push but the era was so huge for her anyway, I can't complain.

WDYLM is one of her best! Criminally low.

 

I appreciate when she does something different like that instead of her usual generic R&B (well, from around that time anyway).

31. '03 Bonnie & Clyde

Average - 6.80
Lovers (10 - Lew & Mack)
Haters (1 - George.keh // 3 - mr aly and Cameron)



'03 Bonnie & Clyde was the very first of twelve times we saw Jay Z and Bey collab on a track and is still one of their most fondly remembered duets together. I don't hear it that often at all nowadays but it's always a fun track to bring out at noughties themed parties even if they surpassed it with the likes of "Drunk In Love", "Crazy in Love" and "Deja Vu" which were all still to come.

30. Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)

Average - 6.93
Lovers (10 - Josh, Sean, Chapman, Jay, liamk97, Mack)
Haters (-1 - Nick F1 & mr aly)



Perhaps Beyonce's MOST iconic hit of her career to date crashes out shockingly in 30th place :o Buzzjack seems to have a few people who despise this utter anthem for some reason which has unfortunately dragged its average down severely. I absolutely adore this and it never fails to fill up the dance floor at parties, a future classic for sure.

I like Single Ladies but I would be lieing if I didn't think it was overplayed.
