First Look: Beyoncé, ‘If I Were A Boy’
Britney Spears isn’t the only pop diva releasing a new music video this weekend … here is our first look at Beyoncé’s new music video for her single If I Were A Boy (the first of two new videos to be released from her upcoming new album I Am …):
The song is deffo growing on me and I really like the stark nature of the video. I’m usually not a fan of narrative music videos (at least, not the ones that have been produced in the past few years) but I quite like this one. It’s a clever way to tell a tale, especially when the twist occurs. The vid may not be club-worthy but it’s deffo not to be missed. What do y’all think?

I got the chills too. Love the lyrics and the video makes that song even more powerful. I hope this helps some guys understand how they hurt their gfs sometimes without even noticing.

October 11th, 2008 at 2:33 pm
such a great video. really really well done.
October 11th, 2008 at 2:46 pm
Meh, just another song. I really don’t like her voice at all…tends to be shrill at times. She’s a pretty girl though.
October 11th, 2008 at 3:42 pm
The video is amazing is really such a good mixed of video and song.
Good job Beyonce!!!!!!
I want the album right now.

When you posted the song I like her voice but really not the whole thing but my local station plays it about 10 times between 10 pm and 6 am when I am at work. I like it now lol.
October 11th, 2008 at 5:41 pm
i dont usualy love beyonce but this video kept me captivated the whole time. and the song is good too. video probably better then the song though.
October 11th, 2008 at 8:23 pm
Video’s not working anymore. I’ll have to go find it!
October 11th, 2008 at 8:34 pm
The video is no longer available…what the hell?!
October 12th, 2008 at 8:43 am

October 12th, 2008 at 9:02 am
Love it now with the vid, never felt so bad for a guy before! lol it makes sense, and her voice does sound good :)
October 12th, 2008 at 9:40 pm
wow. really good
October 14th, 2008 at 12:40 am
I was VERY disappointed with this song and video. It just doesnt seem to be up to par with her other stuff. The lyrics are amatuerish, and the video is just plain silly. She is trying WAAYYY too hard to make her point. How over-dramatic can one person be?
October 14th, 2008 at 3:09 am
i really didnt get the video! but i think iv got it now!
