If I were a boy - BC Jean [with lyrics] :]

[1RetroDrummer]

Copied by everyone???.....Who is EVERYONE??? Beyonce never covered anyone else's song?

[PinkyKitzune]

Wtf is this..

[pcdfan87]

@PinkyKitzune THE ORIGINAL SONG WITH THE ORIGINAL SINGER DUMBASS!

[keymontadennis]

I love beyonce so much but she was low down to copy this song and take credit for it come on B you aint have to scoop that low.. i mean its word for word you aint change words or nothing kept the same pitches and backrounds exactly the same but different voice

[SOTSZ1]

I think that she and her voice are gorgeous

[Emanning95ful]

So true!!

[autumnsapphireblue]

sorry i do not mean to offend anyone or that i am trying to, but when i first heard this song by beyonce i thought that it was too white sounding. it didn't have that black soul feeling to it just like her other songs. i knew that that was not original from her also. she is not a song writer at all. she is just a performer. beyonce is unoriginal and she is going to damn far with her power.

[BobbyCoolMusiQ]

@autumnsapphireblue ahhhhh you said it, so gotdamn true it, didnt sound original for beyonce to write i knew it wasnt by her either

[sceon13]

@autumnsapphireblue Shut Up TLkin Bout Da Song 2 White

[TheMsSupergirlie]

bc jean is my english teachers ex boyfriends moms best friends daughter and she told mii about this today:)

[ruby7249]

@TheMsSupergirlie you have ms isaak huh

[emeraldsignal]

women, cant live with them...............pass the beer nuts

[jessiexplainsitall]

im in love

[lyhong210]

Ok people calm down. Yes what Beyonce did to BC Jean was horrible. I mean why steal someone else's song? But that doesn't take away from the fact that Beyonce is still an AMAZING singer/songwriter. This kind of thing happens everyday in the music biz... :D and btw, I love BC Jean just as much as I love Beyonce.

[KERIFEMALEMJ]

bc jean wrote this shit!

[emmmalovely]

She wrote this song right?

[sssoDevious]

Sounds prettier from her.

[ApplePickingAaron]

I like Beyonce's better than hers.

[Candyflossforeva]

@ApplePickingAaron I like hers better caz hers is an orginal. But i must admit beyonce's version is good :)

[edyc74]

these lyrics are so inaccurate LMAO! get it together ppl!

[LilsterLuvverly]

@vachekipu

i was replying to a different comment that said that Beyonce had a trainable monkey voice

i wasn't saying that BC Jean had a monkey voice

[shadette0823]

Beyonce is a thief and a horizon singer. BC is amazing and should be proud of this song. This is way better than the Beyonce garbage.

[Janetfanumba1]

Beyonce should be ashamed of herself..this girl was trying to make it in the business and beyonce steals her song... ugh i so dont like beyonce anymore.....

[LilsterLuvverly]

@Farbo123

I strongly disagree with your opinion of Beyonce

She does not have a trainable monkey voice, and there is a reason that her song became famous and B C Jean's didn't

Beyonce puts real meaning and emotion into the song

[vachekipu]

@LilsterLuvverly "trainable monkey voice"....EWWW WHATS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN???

some people are tew much

[CrazyGurlRandom]

like i ssid u cant control me i say what i wont n i wont get n ur way but ur wrong so i guess i will

[randomrachal]

But, did this girl write this song?

[minni3me7]

@randomrachal Yes hse did and beyonce herd this song and took it as her own and this girl all most sued her for it but decided not to

[randomrachal]

How can any of you say beyonce sucks??? Have any of you HEARD her live?

[xxxTIN0xxx]

I like better a songwriter who sings what she writes (BC Jean) than a thief that doesn't write her songs, doesn't give credit to where credit was due and claims to be a songwriter although she's not at all (Beyoncè).

BC Jean > Beyoncè

[chunks132]

Half the people who say beyonce was better are black it def.

[Lydiatomson98]

@chunks132 excuse me? I'm black and defintinely DO NOT think Beyonce's version is better

[chunks132]

@Lydiatomson98 just a thought no need to get angry.

[Lydiatomson98]

@chunks132 oh please! you need to get a life!

[chunks132]

@Lydiatomson98 lol. shut up biiiiiiiiiitch

[SamiSuspicious]

beyonce sucks. BC jean is better

[yupitshaley222]

no one got ripped offf .. bc jean is a song writer and also just happens to be a great singer as welll . however she sold this song to beyonce , therefore beyonce is not a theif . and bc jean did not get ripped off.. she knew beyonce was going to sing it.

[starfyre05]

i dont belive this i thought beyonce wrote this from her own brain,she is a fake like the wigs she wears,there are videos on you tube saying that she copies everything from other artists,but that is show bizz someone is always ripping off someone and they are not getting paid for their work

[youngbee04]

BUT Beyonce sang it BETTER...

:)

[vincentvuitton]

SMH I LIKE BOTH VERSIONS

[grinchy29]

wow..she's terrible

[Lydiatomson98]

@grinchy29 no she just has a very strong singing style. she doesn't need all of Beyonce's vibrato to sing!

[annalee310]

what a thief beyonce is...smh

[superjo16]

true, maybe beyonce stole this song but i just love beyonce's voice and nevertheless i still respect her very much. :)

[BlueNeko1]

God, Beyonce is a fucking THIEF!!! Why has nobody put a stop to this?

[KearneyC10]

the truth is that she wrote an awesome song but she doesn't have the voice to sing it, beyoncé's voice sounds much better

[stringendo1]

@KearneyC10 Depends on your taste in vocals. If you're more into R&B/Pop, you'll probably like Beyonce's better. If you like rock & roll better, you'll like BC Jean's. Music is very subjective like that.

[LilsterLuvverly]

Guys leave beyonce alone

yes, BC Jean wrote this song, and Beyonce took it unfairly, but many artists don't write their own songs, they just express it better with their voices then the original writers do

I mean, you don't get mad at actors for saying lines someone else wrote

[naniita1103]

@LilsterLuvverly Sorry, but I disagree. You can sing someone else's songs when you have made a deal with said person and you have his/her approval to sing it. Beyonce made a deal behind BC Jean's back. What kind of artist does that? I mean, I like Beyonce. But I think that she was very mean and selfish doing that. :/

[byunrichard]

@LilsterLuvverly the screen play writers at least get recognition.

[BoombleDazzle]

@LilsterLuvverly You talk nonse, Beyonce is a one big THEEEF and that's sad.

[Farbo123]

@LilsterLuvverly Covering a song is alright. When Johnny Cash covered Nine Inch Nail's song "Hurt" it was done with their express permission and they effectively Gave him the song. Beyonce is a brainless ditz with a trainable monkey voice that sounds pleasant. She probably didnt even know WHO the song was stolen from, just given the script to read off to her audience.

Principles are important in music, youll stamp out creativity if you dont protect them. Then this song wont exist.

[hrick92]

@Farbo123 It is in I Am Sasha Fierce credits: Written by Tody Gad/ BC Jean. Beyoncé's name doesn't appear as a writter. Sorry, but like every singer in industry, Beyoncé paid it, actually,BC Jean offered her If I Were a Boy.

And please, "MONKEY"?

[Ste193]

@hrick92 actually she had to sue beyonce as she tried to claim the song was hers and it was proven in court that it was BC Jean's and she was paid what she was due, beyonce is an overated,overblown greedy bitch.

[gangstaladie]

bc jean been got a deal and beyonce is still singing this girl song like wtf and had the nerve to mixed it with alanis smdh

[HushHush2016]

she is better than beyonce god bless her so much

[irandomnessnation]

If BC Jean Was A Boy I would be very sad :( I mean look at her, makes an amazing girl.

[kndrquinn08]

Her voice is so unique, I love this version <3

[3xpens1v3]

surprised that this grl got no acclaim for the hit.

Thought a talent like this would be more widely known, shame!

[VocaloidNekoChan]

Love the song.

Genius for writing it.

But I still like Beyonce's version better.

[TheCRYSTALLURE]

wow thats pretty cold heer own song got rejected i totally didnt know she wrote it its a great song too! :)

[kklloyd12345]

DUDE I DIDNT KNOW BC WROTE THIS SONG D: SHAME YOU BEYONCE

[laitindragon]

beyonce is so fake . sure she writes her own music lmfao.

[chandrammfcl]

i dont like how she sings this beyonce version is way better than bc jean or reba........

[starsglowify]

beyonce is a bitter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[iTSBADBOiiBITCH]

didnt neyo "write" this song?

[griik123]

@iTSBADBOiiBITCH thats irrepleacable,,,which bey said she wrote it too..lmao

[griik123]

she looke like britney in that pic

[griik123]

im shock,,beyonce is such a theif,,my gawwdd

[DollFaceVixen14]

@griik123 YUP AND SHE STOLE DESERRES KISSING YOU SONG FROM THE ROMEO N JULIET SOUNDTRACK SMH

[edavenigno]

Yeah beyonce bought it off her !!!! she sould feel flattered that beyonce would even consired singing one of her songs !!! Beyonce is Beyonce plain and simple and BC jean will never compare

[merceditas2009]

@edavenigno flattered? Beyonce is so unoriginal and a talentless hack. This girl has talent because she can

sing and writes her own music. Beyonce does absolutely nothing except for dance around the stage with stolen choreography...

[edavenigno]

@merceditas2009 put it this way , who has more fame? ......I am not saying that her version is bad because the girl could sing..... but what i am saying is that beyonce sings is better and matter of fact she should thank beyonce for asking her to sing one of her songs because this is what is making her popular... rummors run !

[MissCleopatraJones08]

@edavenigno It doesn't matter who sang it better, it was Beys song. Beyonce didn't even ask. She just took the song like she always does and when she got caught, she all of a sudden bought it. I like Bey as an entertainer, but she's always stealing some else songs, fashion choices, and performance ideas. Her last performance turned out to be unoriginal. She got the concept from an Italian artist.

[willycosme]

@MissCleopatraJones08 Amen, I've been telling all of this to my friend who is obsessed with Beyonce! A songwriter who's good friends with Beyonce admitted it himself that beyonce doesn't write her own music. She pays people for credit. She's so fake... she needs to stop bleaching, copying people and lying about writing songs she didn't write.

[MissCleopatraJones08]

@willycosme Beyonce is a talented woman, but everything she does has been copied from someone else. Songs, performance ideas, everything.

[Rubidio83]

@MissCleopatraJones08 That's a big true what you said here. Some people forget

that the most important part of a song is a music composition. Beyonce is a great singer,

no doubt about it, but I can understand people who came up with a song first, were refused by

recording studio, and then Beyonce takes their songs, performance ideas and gains all fame exactly

like in this case. And also I can understand Etta's James attitude on Beyonce when she took away her greatest

song I'd rather go blind.

[grisly001]

@merceditas2009 I AGREE!! WELL SAID! and its not hating..its just the TRUTH!! LOL

[edavenigno]

Yeah beyonce bought it off her !!!! she sould feel flattered that beyonce would even consired singing one of her songs !!! Beyonce is Beyonce plain and simple and BC jean will never compare

[SuperCMusic]

Looks like nobody is giving Toby Gad his props on this song. it's a shame. The way I see it, if you like a the rock influence, then you like BC Jean. If you like an R&B influence then you'd prefer beyonce's. They both did great. It's a pointless comparison. I'm waiting on the latin jazz/dubstep/country version, that will really shake things up

[xdori92]

@SuperCMusic There is a country version- Reba McEntire

[rosalynn704]

This song is so much better that Beyonce's song. It has heart and originality because it came from the original  artist.

[lc0309]

This is so much better th FRAUDYAWNCE'S vrsion i mean this girl has a very unique voice unlike a certain someone whose voice is ugly and below avrage. I must be such a shame to stan for that fraud

[lc0309]

What copycat is the fraud of this generation that bitch they call beyawnce sucks!

[isthaayoux3]

isnt she the girl from 'Talent'?

[min3877]

she is jus AMAZING...SHE PUTS BEYONCE TO SHAME!!! WORD!...lol comin from canada! love you gurl..your jus beautiful in every way amen..god bless you! <3

[HeatherBearLuvv]

SO much better than beyonces version cuz BC Jean can actually sing.

[mottox18]

its a good sounding song and she sings it well to bad it was taken from her.dunno about the lyrics girls are just as bad of pigs as guys can be

[kaialone]

@mottox18 True but sometimes you just wanna let of some steam.

[Tubealicious1]

I love BC Jeans version better than Beyonces. 

[latijntaal]

no, absolut not is she smoking or what!

[LyRiiEmily]

It sucks that she let Beyonce sing her song, because she could have been one of those girls who gets played on the radio once and is given so much attention. Justin Bieber was one of those girls.

Sorry, sorry. Lame joke. Well I still think Beyonce already had a lot of fame prior to this song and BC could've been given her first start at fame. Not fair...

[simonea214]

I think Reba's version is best lol.

[MissPower4103]

i really like her vioce 

[RantPants]

idk why but I just don't like her voice. I love her though.

[bobthebuilder0394]

a million times better than beyonces

[TheJAR93]

over 9,000 times better than Beyonce

[DynamicSymphony91]

OMG! Her voice raspy...mmmm xD

[thelikerocks]

Everyone thinks this is BEYONCE's song...I love BC's voice,the raspy quality,has an edge.

[aliyadavison]

beyonce betta den reba and dis lil' no name chick

[DynamicSymphony91]

@aliyadavison She wrote the song you fuckin moron lmao

[aliyadavison]

@DynamicSymphony91 i ain't no moron u d!ckhead and idc beyonce' is betta no matta watcha say

[DynamicSymphony91]

@aliyadavison Ok. lol xD

[aliyadavison]

@DynamicSymphony91 yea



[DynamicSymphony91]

@aliyadavison And btw I never said there was anything wrong with Beyonce's version. I love both their voices. It's just that you don't need to be rude about not liking her lol.

[aliyadavison]

@DynamicSymphony91 ur rite and i kno ur tryna make it seem so bad & srry 4 calln u a d!ckhed

[StaceeStonem]

@aliyadavison This "lil no name chick" wrote this. Without her, Beyonce wouldna sung it you fuck head.

[aliyadavison]

@StaceeStonem WELL U KNO WAT BEYONCE VIDEO SHOWS IF SHE WAS A BOY

[simmielover]

wow . i like this better then beyonce's version /:

shes very pretty too(:

[Mandy1257]

Wow! She has a great "gruffy" voice!! :)......where's the lyrics?

[Mandy1257]

Wow!  She has a great "gruffy" voice!! :)

[marlynmarie]

I like this one way better then Beyonces song

[yohopir8]

BC Jean needs some autotune up in dat. BEYONCE RULEz! xXx y'all

[cnicholasapple]

Screw beyonce's version with her completely unnecessary  resonating

[smoscillo]

Sorry but this is a million times better than Beyonce's version. 

[KailaAlexisJ]

Beyonce stole this, & that's exactly why I don't like her.

[yohopir8]

@KailaAlexisJ you are a hater!!!!!!!!!!! you are just jealouse that B's vesion is ZO much bettr

[KailaAlexisJ]

@yohopir8 I could care less . I don't like beyonce. My opinion , so shut up .

[Jadashable]

Beyoncé's version! -3

[Genahviee]

i'd rather listen to beyonce sing this anyday. Her voice is alot more meaningful.

[aranamin]

i like beyond version

bc jean sounds as if voice is stuck in her mouth ! she cnt get clear vocals out !

[kaialone]

@aranamin You know thats what I like about her voice,she has to really try to make somehting sound good and emotional,while Beyonce has such a dream-voice that she can make a piece of shit sound good without felling a damn thing

[aranamin]

@kaialone beyonces voice does having meaning to it wen she sings !!! u mustve not heard her live or seen all her music videos ! beyonce has such a powerful voice and she can project vocals beautifuly

[ainiriin]

good :)

[DanaAnn1989]

wow this is way better then Beyonces i cant get over it..

[SuperHockeygoalie]

this is obviously BC Jeans song. It fits her personality.

[AccioHHr]

Also, you posted Beyonce's lyrics, these are different.

[AccioHHr]

Sounds much more immature with lyrics ("make out with who I wanted",) and voice (she sounds like a young boy).

[LadyTai7]

BC Jean received every penny that Bey made on this song and rightfully so... she wrote the song and medley... Beyonce's version is good but this version is beast!

[paramore5able1]

did she even get any credit from the song when it was released by beyonce?

[sjamz27]

@paramore5able1 yes she got credit, she still gets money from the song and everything because she wrote it

[teetee1324]

i really hope this wasnt stolen. she sounds great, and would have really made it in the music buisness

[sjamz27]

@teetee1324 no bc jean sold it to beyonce

[Novinte]

@sjamz27 nop, beyonce bought this off another dude behind bc jean's back and then made a deal after this was a huge hit. Didn't keep the promise yet.

[sjamz27]

@Novinte no actually she wrote it, then didn't use it for her album, then her & her manager played it for

Beyonce. She liked it, brought it, then recorded it.

If you want to include your two fucking sense then please include facts.....Thanks

[Smartass8504]

@sjamz27 Shouldn't you follow your own advice? Try reading up. BC Jean even posted the story on her Myspace. She did NOT play it for Beyonce. She didn't even know Beyonce was recording it until the version was finished! They eventually made a deal and came to terms. Beyonce was supposed to do a duet on BC Jean's album if she got a record deal. Beyonce didn't ;). You may wanna learn the facts yourself before you include your "two fucking sense". 

[DollFaceVixen14]

@Novinte TRU BEYONCES OVERRATED AND TAKES CREDIT FOR WRITTING SONGS SHE DOESNT WRITE!

[terriheart]

if she wrote this song and stuff why didn't i hear this song on the radio or if it played it should be played often -__- i guess ppl thought beyonce was better but still, but all in all life is B**** so this what happen .. so sad

[sjamz27]

@terriheart whats sad? she wrote it and recorded it, it wasn't a single, she wrote it for beyonce and gave it to her.

this is like a demo. calm down with the dramatics

[terriheart]

@sjamz27 well ok i understand now am not being dramatic or anything just wondering

[TheSexyAngel10]

Beyonce fricking stole this song -.-

[pajamagirl123]

i kinda like this version better. i can only take some much of Beyonce's...Beyonce-ness.

[temperment10199]

GOD,SHE SOUNDS LIKE SHES SMOKIN WEED WHILE SHES SINGIN!!!!no offense intended beyonce wannabe

[XkatieXwufsXyouX]

@temperment10199 lol shes not a beyonce wannabe BC Jean wrote this song.

[natashley1997]

WTF....This IS the freakin ORIGINAL song...beyonce.....didn't write, make up, image, think of or dream of this song...alll she did was sing it....gosh ppl r retarted these day..lmfao

[alexandra79387]

@WTFMirandaaa @WTFMirandaaa I`m so sorry cause I couldnt reply your lovely comment :P yeah,but have you ever heard of these songs-Broken Hearted Girl,Sweet Dreams,Me Myself and I,Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It),Crazy in Love,Listen,Independent Women,Irreplaceable,Halo,Say My Name,and etc?Beyonce actually wrote all those songs,hun..Yeah,and all those songs are hit songs,oh yeah and -bootylicious is also a part of american vocabulary,so Beyonce was already HUGE even without BC Jean`s song..

[megandabalm]

for one thing. she wrote this song first, then beyonce got it. second this one is much better than beyonce's and third she is super pretty

[jhnsnmcknz]

BC Jean actually wrote the song and it was sent to beyonce. BC jean wrote songs before she started singing.

[TheCookiecooker]

@jhnsnmcknz really!?!?!?

[lluuvvuu]

this is just like beyonces

[alexandra79387]

@WTFMirandaaa first of all,I`m not a kid,I`m a 20 year old girl..And,oh ..you have a life..uhmm, well,it`s a wasted life obviously,CUZ you know shit about music.. I never even heard of this singer..and Beyonce is a great performer,great person,and oh yeah.. she`s gotta fine Grammy awards collection.. so,shut a fuck up,bitch,and you can kiss my ass..if I let you .. :P whatta jerk..

[natashley1997]

@alexandra79387 WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW...ur twenty...i CANT tell...u OBVIOUSLY don't have a life if your arguing with a kid over the internet...like WTF???

[alexandra79387]

@natashley1997 wtf is wrong with you?huh..?did I ask you a question?I dont think so.. fuck off

[KyleDunames]

This is awesome. No tuning or anything, all natural. Amazing.

[aranamin]

if beyonce stole it then wouldnt have she said something

obvisviously they made some sort of deal between them

but personally i like beyonces one better because BC voice breaks and it sounds like shes tryin to hard to hold her vocals

[alexandra79387]

@WTFMirandaaa you need to stop being a fucking hater,you stupid retard ..

[TheEatmyshortshoe]

Nawww bey's wrong for this one how she just up and TOOK someones song FOH !!!!!

[pandorachick1415]

who is the origina artist? beyonce or bc jean?

[thejesster1993]

@pandorachick1415 BC

[irisisgaga]

@pandorachick1415 BEYONCE OF COURSE! BC jean just covered it

[XkatieXwufsXyouX]

@irisisgaga beyonce did not write this song BC jean wrote this song

[stringendo1]

@irisisgaga Um, wrong.

[TheSexigurl100]

@pandorachick1415 WHO YOU THINK IS THE ORIGINAL?? BC JEAN IS THE ORIGINAL DAMN YALL DUMB
