Expressive Beyonce is not what we see always but drunk in love did that to her. Drunk in love is the first ever song by Beyonce that i learned the lyrics word for word
Drunk in Love's producer, Detail, had the beat for the song already done and wanted Future to do some vocals on it.
Also having both Beyonce and Jay z in the video and lyrics is the best duo i could have asked for. Drunk in love holds a deep meaning for me. It sounds like them reassuring each other of theri love for one another
Beyonce and Jay Z even performed Drunk in Love at the Grammy's in 2014. This was the first live performance of the song.
I did not watch the live performance and i was so sad about that. Drunk in love also had a good directing. The whole beach setting and water added to the video was a brillant idea
The video was filmed in Golden Beach, Florida in a manse that Beyonce rented for the video specifically.
Oh really, i'm happy to be having this talk with someone who knows alot about my favorite song
Well I do like Beyonce. Mónika Juhász Miczura claimed Beyoncé sampled her singing in the song without compensating her and sought damages. The lawsuit was dismissed though.
Ofcourse the law suit had to be dismissed. Musicians sample each other always. Drunk in love has Beyonce written all over it. No other version could have surpassed it.
In 2014, Detail released a 7 minute version of the song titled "Drunken Love" with previously unreleased audio elements from the original recording of the song.
