Who? I think the reason everyone talks about Beyoncé doing it like it's the best thing since sliced bread is because it was so unexpected for a popstar like her. Normally these mega stars ie. Britney, Beyoncé, P!nk, Lady Gaga etc do loads of promo. In a way it was a big risk to release Beyoncé in the way she did because those kind of popstars are so afraid of flopping. tbf I don't think anybody has quite had the success Beyoncé did with a release like that, which is also the reason everyone associates that album release strategy with her now.. Anyway, hugely excited for this! although I'm unsure 21 can ever be topped

The song sounds like it's going to be right up my street..

:cheer: :yahoo:

I'd be shouting it from the roof tops myself.. I don't see the problem

The remix really is 100x better IMO! Trey really makes it in the same way that Miguel makes #Beautiful. It's an okay song, but I don't understand how she can go from the amazing #Beautiful to that awful Art Of Letting Go (?) song and now to this..

#1 Contender I reckon.. Hopefully 2014 will be a big year for him!

'Everything' is EVERYTHING :wub: I loved her first album but this is such a step up IMO! Everything, Emotions, All My Lovin', Crying For No Reason, 5am and Still are all my life right now!

Pretty sure it will be her highest charting single but I prefer both 'Work' and 'Change Your Life' at the minute I think ..

Pahaha I'm actually just stalking him B-) Tbh I think it's doing really well to have reached #6.. Although I'm taking every opportunity to hate on the song, I have listened to it quite a lot today...

This has grown on me throughout the day, not a patch on most of her previous singles, but it's good.

Rihanna saves this from being completely awful for me. I honestly expected so much more

It is very M.I.A! Can't work out if I like it or find it annoying

Think it's a pharell collab ...

Why is this even a thread? :huh:

First single 'Can't Rely on You' premieres tomorrow morning Can't wait!

Best episode of the year for me ... Pahaha No seriously though I think it's getting so much better! Wasn't keen on any of the Ronnie stuff but love the Carter family! Give Dot an ASBO! ;-)

10 Pretty Hurts 10 Haunted 10 Drunk in Love 09 Blow 08 No Angel 10 Partition 09 Jealous 07 Rocket 08 Mine 10 XO 08 Flawless 09 Superpower 08 Heaven 07 Blue Now I love most of her past singles like everyone else (Halo, Irreplaceable, Crazy In Love etc) but this really is her best album as a whole for me. So pleased that is seems as though XO is going to be the lead single for this era. Smash waiting to happen!

Whoever thought of this is quite clever. No promo, announcement, single etc has worked out so well! Not sure that it would work for many others though.. Musical event of the year! Early favourites are Pretty Hurts, XO, Blow and Partition.

Wow! What a way to release the album lol! Only heard the first 3 songs so far, but they are all amazing and this seems like it's going to be one of her strongest records! :wub: :wub:

Hoped both Rebecca and leona would be higher at this point! Rebecca has had more promo. Seen her on more tv shows etc than Leona and she's had a video out for weeks

Video is out Friday! :) 45 second clip - http://www.etonline.com/music/141285_First...leep/index.html

Some of the snippets have leaked! She sounds phenomenal on 'Ave Maria' and 'O Holy Night' sounds incredible :wub:
