Beyonce's new album

[Mad_Cactuar]

^ plus it's way too subtle to be in this CD. The vocals are too powerful too, true.

[Ayashi]

Arghhh what did you do with Beyonce's pic?? it's scaryyyyyyyyyyyyyy

[xiaou-xijiang]

MC:
ewww... Hybrid, mutant, Ew.

When I saw the picture, I actually thought that was her but then me and my friend looked real hard and said "WTF?" We started laughing afterwards. Anyway, nice enhancements!

The booklet artwork is gorgeous. I love the lingerie leidhosen outif/things.

How did you make your set look not so hideous? I made mine a couple days ago, but my photoshop skills suck really hard.

[spookshow]

^ ayu doesn't look too impressed to be stuck with the Bee's hair -- that smile is a "get this s**t of my head!" smile

[Mad_Cactuar]

No, it's more like "OMG I'M LOVING THESE NEW BEWBZ". The full picture really works xD Just check the Elite Chat thread in the chatroom, it's the closed one on the first page. Many Ayu experiments there.

^ Cos:
a) I only cut the picture and arranged it and edited it.
b) Ayumi Knowles was done by Risky_Lotus, photoshop genius. We also have Beyonce Koda.
c) The album is freakin awesome. Only Kitty Kat isn't much. The powerhouse vocals is ridiculiusly strong and they crop up OFTEN.

[truehappiness]

Oh, and we had BeyonCO too. You know, PEyonceCO.~

And..
The album debuted at #1 in the US with first week sales of 557,000 copies, selling 240,000 copies more than Knowles' 2003 debut album Dangerously In Love which had a first sales week of 317,000 copies in the US. Beyoncé has the highest first week sales of an album released in 2006 by a female artist and the second highest first week sales in 2006. It debuted at #3 on the UK album charts with over 35,000 copies sold in the first week.

^ I saw that at school earlier today. Quite dissapointing, given that Sony was expecting between 600,000 and 650,000. But it's still a ZOMGWTF amount regardless. I say... Platinum in 6 weeks?

I'd love to see Peyonco! For now though, here's KUyonce a.k.a. BeyonKU.

[truehappiness]

Why does that one look like the face belongs there LOL;

It looks like BEYONCE is going to be on some program in Japan on WOWOW..

It's like interview and music videos.. ~~

[Mad_Cactuar]

That's supposed to be a stunning picture but in that site, Beyonce looks disfigured. Almost Michael Jacksonny. Me no likey. I read that 'Ring The Alarm' is #18 in Japan. Awesome. o_o

[Mad_Cactuar]

I'm so proud of Beyonce. Was afraid that Ring The Alarm was gonna flop before, but now..



It was #117 last week. Go figure.

And on this side of the world (more precisely, Japan)..

#4 40326
#4 72921

Second week sales bigger than first week. It surprises me she managed to even manage that and stay at #4 for two weeks in Oricon. On the daily chart, it's at #13 for Thursday.

I saw Beyonce perfoming live...on the street
and DAMN!!
she is amazing, her skin is smooth looking and glowing too(?)...she is so prettttty ..I thought she is just photogenic...but I was wrong she is even more prettier in person...
her dances..her VOCAL...I think I'm going to die here XD

[explodingbird]

Man, I do love the album. Well... except the fact that the tracklisting is hella short and we have all of two, maybe three ballads tops (maybe she's making up for what happened to 90% of Dangerously in Love?). Okay... maybe I just like the album. The cover's pretty, but, damn, it's your birthday, miss girl. SMILE. She looks like she caught Jay-Z with his hand up Rihanna's shirt or something.

I'll buy it eventually. It's nice, but not album of the year.

All-in-all, very-very-very big disappointment. I really liked Deja Vu at first listen, but I think it was my subconsciousness telling me to like it since it's Beyoncé, then the VMA performance, which itself wasn't bad, I wasn't fond of the song. But I still decided to listen to the album and when I did, it made Deja Vu sound GOOD. :/ Tracks 2-5 were really annoying with their monotonous beats, I liked Kitty Kat & Freakum Dress and at the final stretch it pulled itself together with Irreplaceable & Resentment. But I had high hopes after the masterpiece (I wasn't bothered by it having many ballads) that was Dangerously In Love.

[Mad_Cactuar]

Maybe we should make a poll.

[truehappiness]

I say : Why not?

People do it all the time for random Koda releases, so why not Beyonsay?

[Mad_Cactuar]

Since we have someone who obviously agrees, I'll make one.

Dangerously In Love vs. B'Day
