For Shig: Beyonce "Irreplaceable" in Spanish

hogginthefogg

??Disfruta!http://www.sendspace.com/file/rtftj7This song holds an almost magical sway over me. I really, really like it. More than I should, even. And then she goes and re-records the whole damn thing in Spanish and I like it even more.The rest of this thread is all yours, Shiggy.

haha! yes my good friend. i was just listening to this on 102.7 kiis fm. yes i listen to kiis fm.

anyways, i was discussing this over at special nerds club but it was basically a monologue because those nerds do not have the wherewithall to discuss ms. beyonce's status as a diva. so lets talk, strutters. in question is the diva hand of ms. beyonce knowles.

disclaimer, a lot of this is cut n pasted from special nerds club cuz im lazy,ok?

now, i'll be honest, its a lil early in da_game to throw around such legendary status to a diva little dude. but she has the makings of all the greats.

1. she refers to herself in the 3rd person. its true. i once saw an interview on E! where she was all like "beyonce wont do cheesecake okaaaaaaay!"

2. she is already singing waaaay out of her range. i mean, part of the appeal of "irreplacable" is the fact that she sounds like she's pushing out some major fartjuices with some of them hi notes. I LOVE IT! and what the eff is that song supposed ta be about. it really cornfused my gay hommie, which, i gotta be honest, is like the seal of approval for divadom.

3. GIRL, SHE CRAAAAAZEEE! ok, so the other nite i was listening to the art laboe show on hot 92 jamzz. its like the mexican channel except its mostly in english. seriously, after 7pm, its all about dedications to rocky in folsom and greeneyes in barstow. check it! im being totally serious. what does this have to do with beyonce? well, holy shit. some chick dedicated it to beto and i was like "huh?" and in the middle of the song beyonce busts out in spanish! yes, spanish! i mean, dood, to me this is definately a move of a crazy person. and im not even factoring in her latest album cover where she looks like a 80s softporn actress. her hair and makeup are FUUUUUUUUUCKED UP!

in closing, i love beyonce. not because she got a big booty and a pea sized head. i love her because she a DIVA!

I like to imagine that when Beyonce walks in a room, there is a cold blast of air and the wind whispers "House of Dereon!"

Mike_Bell

I just noticed her pea-sized head.

grandpa_shig

looks like a peanut perched atop a pear.

btw, im totally not haten. one cannot HATE a diva. the word is JEALOUS.

Irreplaceable is a dope song. It's one of the radio songs that touches my inner soft feelings of heartbreak.

Does anybody know what the derivation of "Derion" is--or why it so closely resembles "derriere"?

You're misspelling that, pimp - it's Dereon.

Ha, well, Agnes Dereon is the name of Beyonce's grandmother. As seen framed on the desk:

I am not yet familiar.

Is this actually available in stores? I've been seeing print ads for the longest, but have yet to notice anybody actually wearing it.

that chick has the best job ever.

this is like those jesus pictures.. no matter where you stand, beyonce is looking at you.

faux_rillz

that chick has the best job ever.

Mama Tina is crazy. Remember when she made the other girls in DC hit the tanning bed, to ensure that they'd all be darker than B?

i believe i am qualified.

bassie

i don't why i'm so humourless about this song - maybe because it's playing everywhere all the time? and i find her declining into Miss Ross-dom (the 'i'm a diva!' period) with all her gaudy dresses and goofy poses (please see Golden Globes pics).

i really liked that 'check up on it' song, so i'm not hating on her pop styles (even though i find it very hard to believe Miss Knowles would be so, ah, inviting in the club).

but i kinda hate what she's saying in Irreplacable...people are not disposable, no matter how lame they are and that's the whole premise of the song...and asking for stuff back that you've given to someone, even after a break-up, is super-tacky. the end of the video with her jumping around with her all-girl band (didja hear? Beyonce's got an all-girl group! as in all girls! playing instruments! girls! playing instruments!) is just plain embarassing.

ok, i'll stop now.

grandpa_shig

i totally agree, missbassie. and it sends a confusing message. however, as for diva-dom, i love the fact that she is teetering on the cusp of insanity, a rite of passage if you will for the true diva.

For as crazy as Tina is, Matthew Knowles is a fucking nut. A couple months back I worked on an interview show revolving around the release of her new album, the House of Dereon clothing line, and Dreamgirls.

Dude had controll issues that would make Ike Turner look sober. Were talking about final approval, unfulfilled conttractual promises, the whole shebang

PS he stayed at the comfort in when he came into town

this spanish version is great. I like it at 17 seconds in when it sounds like she says "in that closet a noon ringtone."

I like her first album better, but irreplaceable is a great song.

I couldn't find a better quality version of it, but this is my favorite picture of her. It's so absurd.

You are hating!

This is Ms. "Can you pay my automo-bills?"!

Nobody should be looking to her lyrics for life lessons or relationship guidance.

I think you got it twisted homegirl. I think she's just saying don't take her for granted. Like "you're not the only one that's capable of making me happy" type of steez? you smell me?

lol ??? true enough???but not too many 13 yr old girls are known for listening to advice from anyone who is not sitting at the same caf table with them or not a super-fabulous, super-rich, super-voiced superstar.

this spanish version is great. I like it at 17 seconds in when it sounds like she says "en el closet, en un rinc??n[/b]."

grandpa_shig

id like to point out that there is a much raererer spanglish version, with about a 50/50 english to spanish ting going on.

4. She demands - and gets - rewrites on scripts before she commits to roles. she and her dad demanded that they re-write her role in "Dreamgirls" to paint the 'Diana' character in a more positive light.

Young_Phonics
