The lyrics actually make sense and aren't as crappy as I thought it would be from the title. The beat is the only thing thats wrong with it. If this had a beat like Birthday Sex or Sweet Dreams... I'd probably be all over it.
I truly miss DIL era Beyonce, thats when she was at her best and when I was not ashamed to STAN for her. From 2000-2006...... Beyonce was the ****!!!!! *plays Settle 4 U & Be With You*

a) DIL is her worst album, forever and for always.
b) Doesn't change the fact that that album/"era" had Speechless (!), Gift From Virgo (!!) and SUMMERTIME. (!!!) So I understand where you're coming from, but B'Day really does piss on all other pop/RnB albums of the decade. FROM a GREAT HEIGHT.
