BEYONCE'S "IF I WERE A BOY" JUST KEEPS GROWING AND GROWING ON ME!



I must say that I am no great fan of Beyonce -- her women's lib songs are a big turn off. Usually. But I must say that her song "If I were a Boy" -- in terms of the lyrics, melody and the brilliant music video -- is a masterpiece. This is one of those stunning songs that really grow on listeners! I foresee many awards for this song.

Katy Perry's song "Thinking of You" is also superb (lyrics and music are ok -- but the video is, although stylish, very iffy because the visual narrative is a teensy-weensy screwed up.
