3. If they can be that sexy and romantic as TIRED as they have to be now...
mmmm mmmm mmmmm!!! And that's all I have to say about that! :)

Beyonce is barely holding it together by the end of the song. I'm overwhelmed watching this and I'm in a different country so I can just imagine what it must have been like for those that were there...

12. There's a very simple explanation for that--Beyonce's looks exceed her talent
If you saw the HBO special the day before, you would have seen Shakira unable to "shakira" her butt and forced to expose herself as a "half-assed" singer--ifyou'll pardon the expression.

13. No, no when I said Beyonce was barely holding it together I meant because she was tearing up so much
But that's too funny about Shakira! Still love her though... :)

8. I completely agree.
Beyonce has definitely had her less than classy moments, but she is a gorgeous girl with a good voice and she works very hard at her craft. I respect her for that.

And the way she sang this song is just about perfect... she did a great job.

11. Beyonce this week has shown an incredibly classy side...
one, to be honest, I'd not seen before--no provocativeness, unnecessary "skin," no "affects." Just a beautiful woman with a pure, sincere and emotional voice giving two superb performances.
