Beyoncé - If I Were A Boy
(written by Jean & Gad; 2008; UK #1; November 2008)

In the aftermath of those X Factor performances Beyoncé has sealed her position as one of the world's greatest living superstars. It was only two years ago her breakthrough acting role in Dreamgirls was eclipsed by Jennifer Hudson. That now all seems to be firmly in the past, 'If I Were A Boy' proved beyond doubt that Queen B could adapt and evolve in ways we would never have expected of her. Recently she's showed versitility, compassion, style and pure star power. Quite frankly i cannot think of anyone who is as big as she is right now.

Best Lyric: "I swear i'd be a better man"
