This is going to radio next week. I don't know if it's supposed to be the crossover single or what.

At least it won't flop. I really like this.

This screams flop to me. It's so dated.

Well your opinion isn't the only one that's valid. Also, weren't you the one who had this to say about "Run the World": This is going to be huge.  |

That was clearly before the song leaked in full and my opinion is just that. It's mine and no1 else has to agree.

This is going to clean up house on Urban. Don't see pop playing this heavily though, maybe top 30.

This is okay but sounds like 2006-2008. It reminds me of the "Sexy Love"/"Irreplaceable"/"One Step at a Time" sound except on a bigger/less sugar poppy thing. It's catchy at times and at other times she seems to lose sight of the melody (not in her vocal delivery, but in sognwriting or whatever writing the notes are called).

It's the best thing I've heard so far this era. Better than "Run The World" and "1 + 1" for sure. I don't like how she doesn't sing the title of the song. She stops, and then the background singers say it. Weird.

This sounds like Christina trying to do an Alicia Keys song. Very boring and burnt overdone vocals, but I could see this as a hit just because there have been songs like it become hits ("Impossible").

This is definitely not going to save this era "Irreplaceable" or "Single Ladies" style. It's a pleasant song though.

 She showed her fellow females that they can “Run the World,” bared her heart on the soulful “1+1,” and now Beyoncé takes a stand with the debut of “Best Thing I Never Had,” the second single from her upcoming album 4 (June 28). Written by Babyface and produced by Symbolyc One (Kanye West’s “POWER”), the midtempo tune sees the Grammy winner spewing vengeful lyrics about a lover who didn’t recognize a good thing until it was gone.
“When I think of the time that I almost loved you/ You showed your ass and I saw the real you/ Thank God you blew it, I thank God I dodged a bullet/ I’m so over you, so baby good looking out,” she sings before kicking him to the curb.
Karma’s a B. |

I've liked every song she's put out from "4" so far. This isn't the best one though. It definitely sounds like a hit. This sounds like a cross between "If I Were A Boy" and "Halo".

Infectious as hell. This will be a hit, especially on Top 40. Not sure why people see this as an urban song.

Unimpressed. This sounds like filler from "I Am..."

I think the lyrics and the way she is singing it will identify with Urban radio listeners more than any other format. Then again, "Irreplaceable" used the exact same formula and it was massive. This song won't do nearly as that one well though.
