i know it has to do with building and how much its compared to the previous week.. but the position # you are in has to do with total AI, i thought. Because Beyonce would have to fall below them eventually either way, because i dont think shes getting 24-25 million AI by the time the chart week ends, so i dont understand how shes so high.

"Bey-Day"?
--------------------------
Monday has been deemed "Bey-Day" as Beyonce takes over television with videos for her new singles "If I Were a Boy" and "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)." Both videos will premiere on MTV, BET, VH1 and Fuse on Monday (Oct. 13).
"It's kind of like 'Freaky Friday'," Beyonce told Billboard of the concept behind her "If I Were a Boy" clip, where she plays a police officer.
"In the beginning of the video, my husband makes me breakfast and he's excited about it, and I kind of don't have time to eat. As a police officer, I have a male partner and the video goes through our days. My husband's at work and has attractive girls flirting with him but he declines their advances. I have a guy flirting with me, and I flirt back."
Beyonce says the clip will depict common things that men do to hurt their significant others, like not answering their phone.
"It's about all of the little things that mean so much in a relationship," says Beyonce. "At the end of the clip, you realize that I was acting out his life, and it all starts over again. He was a cop and everything that happened was really him doing the same thing to me."
Both videos were directed by Jake Nava, who previously helmed Beyonce's "Baby Boy" featuring Sean Paul.

I'm sorry. Beyonce just annoys me to death. I really just want her to go away. I dont know why.. she just bugs me.

the speaking parts take away from the song, other than that great video.

Very subtle, me like. However this all reeks of a third/fourth single release, everything is just okaay, but nothing that takes your breath away. And she's released the video on exactly the wrong day - Britney's premiere. I didn't know she had a video out for a few hours after I watched Britney's. I don't see why she couldn't have waited a week, to gain some hype.

The video was supposed to be released "officially" Monday. But most videos find their way online early or played early. Only when you have it carefully coordinated like Womanizer does it not leak early. I think even Gimme More popped up on iTunes overnight lol.
Anyway, the video was pretty good. Not what I was expecting at all. Besides being her most pop song, it now seems like her most pop video too. I actually liked the speaking parts, they really added a lot and conveyed the message of the song well.

the quality of the song isnt good... and im not talking about the HQ version and that im listening to a leaked cop of it...
im tlaking about lyrically...its nothing special... and it has a very similar beat that weve already heard beynce kill...and we know she does them well....
i had expectations for something amazing...i thought she said for this album she was going ti be more experimental by havung more of a European-club sound...similar to rihanna...

I think this is an experimentation. She's never done a track this HAC before.

I hope this album under-performs. Homegirl needs to go away. She is f**king everywhere. I can't watch Will & Grace without seeing her in a damn L'Oreal commercial, or that Amex crap.
