I like how this album sounds slightly different from contemporary 2020s country music because its influences are mostly from 50s/60s tunes
Beyoncé is so boring to me. Could never understand the hype around her
Deaf men love her
it’s because music is subjective 🙂
She absolutely sucks.
So it’s a bit Like Karaoke?🤔
It’s totally like a Karaoke cover
No, it’s a cover
@@gazzamuso No it is *_exactly_* like karaoke, i.e singing along to a pre-recorded track
@@misterflibble6601yeah, but she’s added more instruments and backing vocals.
This magic because it is The Beatles always the Beatles
Oh man I noticed this when I heard it for the first time! I honestly can’t tell if it’s clever or cheap.
Cheap
Cheap, why would you need the master tape for the guitar, just play it yourself!
Wouldn’t really call this cheap, tbh
Well she herself spent an hour in a booth singing the vocal. A team of producers decided to sample and market the original Blackbird
When you sample the entire song, minus the vocals, and then sing over the top, that’s called “karaoke”, which was pioneered in Japan.
Wow, so innovative and original 🙄
I mean we are all here talking about it, so it is sure an interesting choice. Probably isn’t cheap since it’s the Beatles.
Not cheap for the royalties, but cheesy creatively
So it’s kareoke
I encourage all of the people being bitter about this song to check out what paul had to say about it, maybe it’ll broaden your view about it
So it’s just karaoke. Add to that the butchery that she inflicted on “Jolene” and I really don’t think there’s much artistic integrity in the whole project.
It’s really a beautiful cover
Beyoncé doing karaoke, ok.
Beyonce is overrated.
To be honest, what’s the point?
Did you hear the whole song?
What’s the next song she’s gonna stea… Sample? Killer Queen
Paul is happy with this, though as it’s a Beatles production rather than a solo McCartney production, I wonder what other permissions Beyonce needed?
mediocre cover but i can’t be mad that people are listening to blackbird ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Paul McCartney spoke about the meaning behind the song and it fits so well in the context of Beyoncé’s album and the message she’s sending with the album. So legendary that she got his stamp of approval too!! She’s so talented!
Everyone saying “so it’s just kareoke” thinks they’re original lol there are 20 comments all saying the same thing. Paul McCartney gave his approval and complimented Beyonce’s cover of this. It fits perfectly into her album since the song is about Black women from the south during the civil rights movement.
You’re so butthurt lol
