I'm really unsure what to think of Beyonce's new music. I was a bit dissappointed by the tepid first single, although I don't think Deja Vu is as bad as people make it out to be. I think the problem is how familiar it sounds and how awful the video is. It really is aptly titled because listening to the song made me feel like I was having Deva Vu. It sounds remarkably similar to Crazy In Love, albeit a much worse version. Still, I thought the single was solid, if forgettable. I absolutely love Ring The Alarm though. Sounds totally fresh and Beyonce's vocals have so much conviction and are just fierce. The video sucks really hard though. Is it supposed to be funny and campy? Is it just me or do Sophie Muller's videos often look very low-budget?
