Im sorry but Beyonce has lost it.. 'Girls' is trash, 'End of Time' is average, and this one is a BAD BAD risk! Goodluck with that Album selling as much as anticipated

Why is she singing about making love? It cheapens the song. I liked the lyrics, they were emotional and meaningful but her references to 'making love' takes away the indepth definition of real love.

Beyonce's target audience comprises significantly young girls. After all, she did sing a song titled ''Run the world- girs''- Does she think the lyrics to 1 plus 1 - ie the chorus is appropriate for young girls?- Especially in this rotten generation of ours, infiltrated with sex, numerous teenage pregnancies, women refusing to get a good education but instead opting for the easier way out ie embracing sexuality as a way to promote themselves?

Na Beyonce. I loved the lyrics until you started shouting about making love. Try and release songs that are PG content OR if you MUST talk about sex, do so in a discrete way....use subliminals.

This is the type of song that would brain wash young girls, making them believe that Love is the same thing as sex and encouraging them to succumb to peer pressure from good-for-nothing men looking to prey on naive girls.

Corporations are under pressure to behave in socially responsible ways. Its time for super stars like Beyonce to incorporate some form of 'social responsibility' into her songs.

This song gets irritating quite quickly...and I find Run the world- girls really manic and annoying. Nevertheless I'm sure there are people going gaga for her new album. I like the woman though.

And Kelly Rowland's song is NUMBER 1 IN BILLBOARD HOP HOP/R&B Charts.

Beyonce knew she had to release a new song quick because Run the world (Girls) was flopping and is continuing to flop no matter how hard she promotes that garbage.
I think people are beginning to get tired of Beyonce with her garbage songs....The only solid album from Beyonce was "Dangerously in Love" which i still listen to today. The other albums are garbage. The woman is too overrated.
I don't understand why Linda keeps posting every update about Beyonce. We do not care about her anymore and her album is predicted to FLOP.

SO PROUD OF KELLY ROWLAND FOR BEING NUMERO UNO ON THE CHARTS.

This woman is beginning literally to bore me. I am so over BeYAWNce and her shenanigans. She needs to just disappear and let Lady Gaga and Rihanna rule the music industry. Her time is gone.

OMG the comments from ppl on this blog are shocking! This is actually a great song...damn The album is gonna be great if not her greatest. Sha at the end of the day you ppl will still dance and sing to her songs as you did single ladies, irreplaceable, diva, ego etc. Only a matter of time....

To those of you who keep mentioning Kelly Rowland

"MOTIVATION is also now at #21 on the US Hot 100, while "Run The World (Girls)" is yet to go past its peak of #33 and is currently sitting at #50"

I am definitely buying Kelly's album when it drops. I love Beyonce but I won't waste my money on her mediocre songs. This new album from Beyonce won't do well. Beyonce needs a very very long break. Right now, everybody is humping to Lady Gaga.

P.S. All of you guys here shouting Kelly Rowland this and that, I hope you all go and buy her album. We gotta show love to her. It's her time to shine.

@FanStan, Lady gaga and Rihanna may not have the vocals that Beyonce has but you can't deny the fact that they have far more better songs than Beyonce. I mean, what in the world in that stupid "Girls' song??? What the fuck was that?

Most of the songs from the B'day album were rubbish and now Beyonce is back with another rubbish. Like some people mentioned, her first album was way better than the rubbish she is releasing today

I also agree with the first comment; this new song is very to risky to be released as a second single. Quite frankly, this song is not all that. Yes, it does highlights her powerful vocal range but the song is not doing anything for me.

This song is soooo boring.LMAO. Beyonce, your time is up. You need to think about giving Jay-z some babies because this right here is not the ish. Don't even release that album any longer. Just quietly go away.

Boring, but not bad I guess!

Reevaluate and maybe come back...Your times is up Bey!....Where is your song on the charts? no where to be found...Hang it up before it becomes a disgrace
