Hindsight is 20/20 and it's hard to perceive things like Crazy in Love not being a surefire hit now, but I remember first hearing and disliking it. It was extremely different at the time and completely out of left field. Nothing on the radio sounded like that and it took a few listens to really process. A lot of Bey's music is like that tho.

Teresa is awesome. I love how she's been there for the whole ride with Bey.
