How does June 2022 - January 2024 equals 2.5 years? :o Because we're not gonna start counting from the time she said the word 'Renaissance' for the first time in an interview (albeit this Harper's Bazaar interview counts for like a THIRD of the entire promo campaign for this album). It doesn't, I've corrected it. 1

Have yet to hear a Cozy one that nailed the falsetto at the end. this one kinda does but i agree fanmade studio versions very rarely catch every single detail so to me the live album is a necessity. i’m less stressed knowing that we’ll get the HQ audio one way or another once the film’s on dvd/streaming but i do need the WHOLE thing on streaming, full interludes, cut songs & all 1
Bey'Knight Posted January 3 Posted January 3 2 hours ago, AxelFox said: It's cool but ngl I'm a bit sad that's the only use we got out of the remix. I always envisioned a Dance For You like performance for the Cuff it remix and that's exactly the part where she'd sex it up to the fullest I was pleasantly surprised she extended both BMS & CI to their remixes live in the first place. There was a time she’d do a verse + chorus (maybe bridge) n move to the next on the setlist 1 hour ago, swissman said: There's that rumour that they the film will be released on DVD/digital in Feb, so hopefully it is released alongside that as well to streaming. I do see the point in not releasing it until the theatrical run is over though, not just because the WW release has been staggered, but even personally I may not have went back to see it a third time if I had the live album to keep me satisfied, and I think even for non-fans who may simply be going out of curiosity, if they want their curiosity satisfied, there'd be a clear choice to be made between being able to consume a live album on a streaming they've already paid for vs. a $20+ ticket. Pardon the false equivalency, i just thought if movies can release OSTs during theatrical window, should be apply here. I suppose the product being a concert film makes all the difference.

I suppose the product being a concert film makes all the difference. I was thinking the same thing when I was typing that out, trying to find the difference between an OST and a live album concert soundtrack...and do agree I think even in musicals where the soundtrack is part of the action of the film (not just background), it's a different experience of the film whereas there's story happening not just visualized performances. 1
Lose My Breath Posted January 3 Posted January 3 Renaissance received 1 billion on demand streams and sold 913k units in 2023 in the US Not bad 7
Kalmanta Posted January 3 Posted January 3 Cuff It was somewhat of a letdown live on tour, but the editing and timing of the film version a highlight. PLEASE GIVE US THE LIVE ALBUM! 1

PLEASE GIVE US THE LIVE ALBUM! Yes, I agree. It's not my fave track by any means on the album, but as the big hit, I felt it could have been drawn out a bit more to tease / play with how much people loved that song.
Brikenbur Posted January 3 Posted January 3 HTHaze does it again with a one-of-a-kind review of LEMONADE Honestly, after watching this, it’s scooted Miss Lemön up my list of fav Bey albums Does anyone else usually watch his reviews? They’re so spot on! Every nuance in LEMONADE and even his review of RENAISSANCE, he picks up on! 7
Mitsouko Posted January 3 Posted January 3 I'm a lifelong collector of physical media and I'm terminally online and perched on the Blu-ray forums daily and I can tell you I've never heard of dvdreleasedates.com Let's hope they have the tea tho! 9

Lose My Breath Posted January 3 Posted January 3 12 minutes ago, DR0GO said: Do we know how much Renaissance has sold in the US thus far? Do the numbers include streams too? Yes, the 913k includes streams, it only sold around 100k physical copies in the US in 2023. Partially because they didn't really manufacture anything outside of those initials vinyls and albums I think it's right around 2 million units in the US. @Lovett @JoAddams ? 1

I believe their prediction is based on the time a film takes to get a blu-ray/DVD release after premiering in theaters, which usually takes 3 months. Edited January 3 by period sis
Pud Posted January 3 Posted January 3 The film really is flawless, but I just wish she hadn’t included so many shots in the glittery ITG leotard. It’s SO unflattering compared to the rest. The OG Stockholm one, the armour one & the Kansas City one >>>

The OG Stockholm one, the armour one & the Kansas City one >>> her worst ITG outfit getting ZERO screen time... she's so real for that. the glittery leotard is fine, contours her body really well imo. the worst part of that was the ugly pink coat that restricted her movement. I wish the one with the weird cropped jacket got the chop too. 6
