Agreed with the video being flawless but people still don't like the song enough for it to be number 1.

Beyoncé is showing signs of the development of "artistic fatigue" - a condition in which an artist with universal name recognition and critical acclaim releases subpar material simply because it will sell off of the strength of his/her brand.

this video is SHIT and the song is fucking horrible.
