Beyonce - Irreplaceable

It's an OK "pop" record. To compare it to "We Belong Together" is quite a stretch. This song will not be anywhere close to the hit "We Belong Together" was.
 
I like Beyonce, but I'm really disappointed with the songs on this CD (with the exception of "Upgrade U").

I've heard a remix of "Irreplaceable" that makes it a bit less pop sounding from a musical standpoint. Same vocals though.
 
Looking back at how Deja Vu and Ring the Alarm were released and how they did on the charts, Ring the Alarm should've been before Deja Vu in my opinion. And it seems like the record company (Sony) is pacing her singles. Deja Vu was released in June, Ring the Alarm in August, and it's not even Novmember yet and they are pushing Irreplaceable. Ring the Alarm was actually doing good and gaining well until Sony got into it with the 3rd.
 
This song make me want to kick my cat, "to the left , to the left". LOL . I love this song .

Oh please she sounds like a JoJo-wannabe. Seems like solo wasn't the way to go after all.

Dude, what are you talking about? Beyonce is one of the most successful solo R&B artists so far this decade. She has had major success in and out of Destiny's Child, consistantly for the last 8 years or so.

"Irreplaceable" is a great track.

And to call her a "Jojo-wannabe" is a huge insult, I have no idea what you even mean by that.
 
I like Beyonce's new album... i think radio just hasn't given her a chance, especially pop radio, URBAN radio has been pretty good to her this time around.

Yet again still skimming my posts (or you read the word JoJo and clicked quote), I was focusing on the song, not her career. And, yes, it sounds like "Leave (Get Out)", which makes it sound like it wants to be that track. And it's not a great track, being nice, it's ok. The song doesn't match her vocals well and sounds a bit too abrasive and loud, while Mariah (someone mentioned a "We Belong Together" comparison) has a much lighter voice, therefore is stronger in pop/R&B/ballads like these. Which then leads on to why "Crazy In Love" and "Baby Boy" were the huge hits. And the solo wasn't the way to go was focused on the B' Day release, not Dangerously In Love.

I don't skim over your posts. You never said in your original post that you were referring to the song, you just said she sounds like a Jojo wannabe. Also, you left out that you were focusing on "B' Day," not "Dangerously in Love."

It's confusing when you leave out things you "meant to say"...
 
I like this song better now than I first did. But it still pales compared to some of her other pop-tastic records.
