Soda Pop Queen Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Meanwhile, Ms. Dolly getting her coins regardless, like she always do. Yea, I'm sure she is as happy as a tick on a fat dog with Beyoncé "missing the point". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TotallyHot Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 She did. BIG TIME. She turned a song about a woman's insecurities, vulnerability and MAYBE even a lesbian subtext disguised as "jealousy" (or more simply, a woman praising another woman) into yet another self empowing "anthem" that only Beyoncé herself can relate to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing harder than unabashedly admitting someone is better looking than you. This. She turned a song about vulnerability into yet another "I'm flawless, I'm Beyoncé" song.

king_queen Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 No, but maybe you missed the point of Beyoncé's Jolene 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superben Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Yes, she did. Jolene offers a different perspective, and Beyonce makes into the same old bland messages found in Nicki Minaj's songs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
If U Seek Amy Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 People not understanding Beyoncé decided to make her own version of the song has been so funny to me. She has her own lyrics and perspective: "does that mean she doesn't understand the song?!” Like you cannot be that stupid to not understand this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiaTamera Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 I am in agreement that Dolly's original version along with Miley's cover are the superior versions, but didn't Dolly rewrite the lyrics? Not Beyoncé? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, its just known as the Dolly-clause that if u decide to cover her songs, she has to be listed as the sole writer of the song 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbiegrande Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Beyonce is a child of the 80s. Of course she's a Pick Me. Woman of her generation typically are but oh well who cares. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woman of her generation typically are but oh well who cares. She literally was living separately from Jay for a few months and was close to divorcing him, its only that he put in the effort (therapy and change of lifestyle) that made her forgive and give him another chance. It was well documented on the OTRII-Tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Yeah, she completely ruined it. I think she was trying to have a #girlboss moment but it fell flat. Also, the lyrics in her version are absolutely atrocious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
