you can't really blame Sony for deleting Single Ladies the first time. It was uploaded in 2008, VEVO didn't come along until around November 2009 and all artists labels had to delete their videos if they signed a contract with VEVO. Single Ladies would definitely be in the 400-500M range today if it was never deleted.
but yea, it's ridiculous how Sony allows all those versions of Single Ladies to be uploaded and are still up 3 years later.

I wonder if they could add those views to the official Single Ladies views. Beyonce should be over 2 billion views on VEVO
Is that real that Bey is gonna do a Countdown Concert at Las Vegas in Dec?
Because i heard some "exclusive " news about it..but i doubt is that true...

Even her old songs, album tracks, and promo singles gets millions of views. Queen.
Honestly her second best single choices for an era until the end, DIL had the best I say. B'Day and 4 had the worse single choices, but were probably her better albums musically.
I've heard people say that the only good songs on DiL are the singles. Not that I agree with that.
thank you. although, I don't want to count the views based off of random pages. I'm just keeping track of the video views from her official VEVO videos.
I understand, I just wanted to put it all there in case I missed anything.
BTW, the VEVO plays are a bit off, I got all of these from her YT page.
DIL's singles choices are so overrated. Dangerously in Love 2 should've been released as the 3rd single, not Me, Myself and I. The era needed a 5th single, too.
Sorry but who actually cares what number the video views say? What matters is that PEOPLE have actually watched it. If Sony deleted it, then they deleted it. That does not mean the views were also erased from those who watched the now deleted videos.

I read somewhere that SL had 520 million views in 2009. And there are many other versions which were not deleted till 2011. So in total it should def be at least 700 million views.

How would you feel if your fave's album was certified diamond then those certifications was taken away. I get what you are saying but its this was a MAJOR record. She had the most viewed video of all time then i think, or at least for a female artist. She deserved that title.
Random: i just imagined x-factor using I was here as the winnner's song. That girl, Elle was interviewed on d red carpet n she said her dream finale collabo would be with Beyonce or Adele ... Still, i dont want Bey to grace any stage prior to 03.02.13

I think all the singles that were chosen should have been singles. However, I believe there should have been more singles released from that album such as DIL P2 (and Speechless ).
Not that I agree with that.
