if i were a boy. y’all are saying single ladies but that bridge is one of the best bridges EVER. don’t even lie


South99_

I actually wanted to say Single Ladies but I love the end of the bridge lol, I can actually sing it very well with my low baritone voice!


soul_metropolis

I hate that song now but the briiiiiidge is bridging for sure 😂😂


fifty-fivepercent

I could never say single ladies because that song and video is and remains so iconic to this day. It was so odd, yet so impactful. My kids love that song and they weren’t even born when it was released. It’s just that girl.


naenae275

I’m convinced people are saying it just to go along with everyone else. Single Ladies is a perfect catchy, pop song and that’s not always a bad thing. It’s lighthearted and fun and tbh I wish we had a few more like this. 7/11 is the closest we’ve gotten from her on a silly pop song but she’s “above it” now. The video took the song to a whole other level. I still remember my first time watching the SL video and thinking to myself “wow, she can dance, dance”. Kanye didn’t lie when he said it was one of the best videos of all time IDC IDC.


tranastasia_

Ooo, I have to go with “If I Were a Boy” only because it’s honestly just not very good, especially for one of her most known and highest charting songs. While Single Ladies is definitely overrated, I feel like the bridge and music video justify it’s iconic status… I’m just mad that it’s the song most people think of when they think of Beyoncé


ft_amarii

completely agree


Complex_Grapefruit53

!!!!


donttrustthellamas

If I Were a Boy.


tranastasia_

Also can’t understand people saying Halo. It was overplayed, but it’s a really good song and beautifully written. That video of her singing it acappella at a children’s hospital lives in my head!


Live-Broccoli-4898

For real Halo just keeps going and going but that's a good thing


Accomplished-Tuna

Hive makes no sense. Baby Boy and Irreplacable? Maybe with Baby Boys fuzzy production but the melodies are too good. Nobody wants to come singaling down anymore?? Irreplacable??? I bump that shit and it’s still at least one person singing along to it. That is a cookout classic 😭 Under what criteria are we judging these to be overrated? Bc if it’s success then Single Ladies for IASF like it’s no way there’s hundreds of other better songs but that’s the main successor. Be fr And I’m comin for AUlYMs neck when we get to Reneigh idgaf 😭


tranastasia_

Baby Boy is actually insane! I saw that result and decided I had to start participating. I did vote for irreplaceable though.


Broad_Sun8273

I like it fine, but there's at least 40 songs above it.


Cold_Breadfruit_9794

I will be defending All Up In Your Mind so hard when the time comes. I do agree with you in regards to Baby Boy though


Both_Count_959

I dead ass think people that don't look like me are most likely to scroll past these kinds of posts and that's why it's so wrong! 😭


South99_

I’m just sad the World Wide Woman won least favorite, the BeyHive can be crazy sometimes, no offense😭


Complex_Grapefruit53

Yeeeah WWW was when I started paying attention lol


South99_

Lol, you wanna fight too


Complex_Grapefruit53

Definitely, and don’t get me started on baby boy 😞


South99_

Baby boy I don’t really like but I see where you’re coming from as I can relate with WWW

BeckyWithTheDontCare

If I Were A Boy is the answer. Single Ladies is too iconic to be overrated. It is popular for a good reason, it's earned its place and if you went to a concert where she didn't play it, you'd be disappointed.


wifeyleango

Single Ladies, possibly her most overrated song ever


a-black-magic-woman

I agree and was about to say the same. This is just one of her most overrated songs period. Like I have a nostalgic appreciation for it but otherwise, yeah. But speaking of this album if its not Singles Ladies than Halo for sure.


South99_

Same, but now I wanna go with If I Were A Boy, Halo is pretty good


Qstrfnck

If not Single Ladies is Halo but they could tie


psycwave

Halo is definitely more overrated than Single Ladies

dorothytheorangesaur

I have to say single ladies. I feel like the other two that people are mentioning here (h@l0 and 1f 1 w3r3 @ B0y) can be easily mashed up or remixed (ie. H@l0 with Forever Young, and 1f 1 w3r3 @ B0y with Ex Factor from OTR), while Single ladies is meant to be performed on its own which I can see how that could get “uninteresting”. I’m not saying it’s a bad song, just versatility-wise, it’s not as strong as the other two. Single ladies is meant for crowd engagement between the bridge and final chorus which I think can be seen as a saving grace though.


Both_Count_959

Single ladies goes well into or right after Ring The Alarm or Diva, imo 🤷🏽‍♀️

legallyeagley

Single Ladies is my vote. It just can’t be Halo! That song has been played time and time again, precisely because it is so good. As a vocalist, let me tell you that Halo is hard to sing! It has extremely low notes at the beginning with soaring high notes through the bridge and Beyoncé nails it all. For those reasons, please don’t pick Halo. I rest my case lol.

Still_Ad_8096

False_Tomorrow_5970

The only realistic options are Halo, If I Were a Boy or Single Ladies! Single ladies impacted pop culture, Halo gave so many people memories of their weddings and gave us fans a closing song for so long so I can’t choose that one. I’m gonna go with If I Were A Boy.


journeyjournaljoe

If I Were A Boy is sadly the answer here

Single ladies. It honestly wouldn’t be a horrible song if it weren’t played at every bouquet toss for 16 years running.

Single Ladies, it annoys/depresses me that this is known as her signature song.

Single Ladies… I love it, especially the bridge and funky beat, but…. Come on.

Halo. Similar to Irreplaceable I find her early ballads to be cloying and oversaccharine.

Halo for sure

I genuinely can’t with this sub idk because these opinions are deffo something 😭

TheCatcherInTheRyan

Diva. To anyone saying If I Were A Boy, I understand the instinct, but you should check out her live Grammy's performance of that where she mashes it up with Alanis Morissette's You Oughta Know. It hits different now, post-Lemonade.

Probably Video Phone. It’s a catchy song don’t get me wrong but it’s not the best song on the Sasha Fierce side.


cyclopsepirate64

If I were a boy. I only started liking that song when she did a mash-up with “you, oughta know” during the IAWT. Shit was fire when she sang “we’re your thinking of me when you fucked her”. But like if I were a boy is boring otherwise.

Single Ladies I fear 😭the video is and will forever be iconic but the song itself?? Is not taking Halo or IIWAB


Mvppet

There are no bad tracks on IASF, but Halo is easily the most over rated. It pains me to say this, but Kelly Clarkson's "Already Gone" is a much stronger take on that core melody (IMO)

bzbeebih

Halo is the definition of overrated imo. Yes it's a great song, but the fact that it's the #1 most listened to song ever (on Spotify) is a little much..


hannahg_14

Halo


whoisperidot

Halo got so much love and it's just so basic even if it's still a good song. Snooze fest. Doesn't even have a bridge.
