Frank could have done this song way better than beyonce, afterall he wrote it and that emotion is there when you write a song... Beyonces version is good but Franks version even live is legendary.
First of all I can relate to this song thats why I really love it, second thing is, he has an amazing voice. I think he sang the song very well maybe because he wrote it. & Bee is good though but at this song Frank Ocean just killed it. "It is so simple, I feel it
this crowd appreciate good music they knew to when to the approiate time to scream & shout i was there for the new york show oh my god they would not shut the fuck up!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love Beyoncé's version, but I fell IN LOVE with Frank's version!! He puts a whole different emotion into the song. You can tel he was missing someone deeply & was in an emotional state when he wrote this song & he comes out when he sings it.
Idk why he gave this song up to Beyonce ... he sounds MUCH BETTER covering this song then she does HANDS DOWN ... More Soul & Passion in his words when he sings it !
@yayababy81 Fuck all you beyonce obsessed weirdos it's not her song it didn't come from her mind, heart or soul it came from his songwriters NOT singers are the true artists they are the talent beyonce is just a pretty face and a pretty voice void of any emotion or depth
Trying to become a better singer, and I need critiscism, Just uploaded a Cover of Frank Ocean's "Thinking about you" . I have to start somewhere right? Check it out :-)
@DrMusicBox First off i am a singer myself...nd in MY OPINION i still think his cover was not all that good...and i said bashing because i read comments...but no one is Disillusional cuz when she does wrong i let it be known
I cant believe someone so beautiful actually exist. Frank Ocean reminds me of love. Hes like....*sigh* I might cry thinkimg of how great he is. He makes me wanna listen to music again. I wish more artist could be like him.
I used to b e annoyed because everyone made noise over Frank Ocean ... now I heard this I feel like an idiot for not knowing this voice in the first place (!)
@singingmorena Wow, I think anyone who reads your comment will hate you forever because for one, "you did right" isn't grammatically correct so you sound ignorant, Second This version was beautiful, and telling the man who wrote it and who has one of the most under rated voices in music to this date, "to be quiet" Is just plain stupid
I dont really like his version doesnt give me that umph...i think people are liking this just to Bash Beyonce which aint fair. And also Beyonce lets it be known that Frank Ocean wrote this song in one of her NYC lie performace
@deadea74 It baffles me how disillusioned you beyonce fans are, JUST because more people connect with Frank's song and like it more than Beyonce's cover of it, doesnt mean anyone is out to bash Beyonce. Smh

My Channel Is Full Of Great Music, & Short Films That Are Hilarious Lol. So If You Would, Just Give Me A Chance To Prove I'm All That & More By Checking Out My Channel & Leaving Your Kind Comments. I'd Thank And Appreciate All Of You Who Do That.

@yayababy81 wow "he's just the creator" - that sounds indeed very preposterous. That's what I hate nowadays, people only seem to think in terms of buying and selling. "just because he wrote it, doesnt make it HIS song. Once youve given up the rights to it, its not your song," Again, commercial bullshit. Who the heck cares about who owns the song - it's just a mere agreement based on money. Just enjoy the music, will you..
@sabraboo93 if someone builds a house (writes a song) and sells it, it's no longer theirs. they can show it to other people (perform the song), but the house (the song) belongs to the "customer"... i see what you're saying but i don't agree.
with him being the writer of the song, I'm pretty sure between him and the producer, they get paid the most. Of course will still make a crap load from touring anyway. It is still his song written by him, PERFORMED by Beyonce.
@yayababy81 he didnt give up the rights to the song. its registered under his publisher. he just sold the song to her label. thats what songrwriters do. write, publish and sell. if he wouldve gave up the rights, he wouldnt be able to perform it.
I love Taeyang 's version the most... But this version is really good too! It's not like i don't like beyonce but this song just doesn't suit her voice very well if you ask me (:
Man, why cant this b on itunes...I really love franks version better..he shoulda jus kept this one.. So much emotion into it when he sings..i love this song!! Listen to it everyday
Man, Ever since I Heard this dude, I've Been hooked. I heard Jayonce' s version on the radio and paid it no mind. Frank's version is better. Gotta be, He wrote it. His hook on "No church in the wild" is Boss too. Much Respect to this man!
Im not feeling it. sorry, even though he wrote it, that doesnt mean he sang it well here. The studio version by Beyonce is much better.
I lost my mama recently and whenever i play this song, it makes me really cry. Every word of the song is exactly what i would say to her if she were still alive. So i know what im saying.
...btw, i hope this guy doesnt end up acting the way ne-yo did. Yeah they wrote songs for Beyonce. We just don't wanna hear it on every TV station & interviews they appear
i'm here after watching Taeyang's version ^_^ love all versions <3 Taeyang is an korean singer in the korean boyband bigbang <3 check out his cover of this song watch?v=wc-XPYOfeVg&feature=g-all
This is one of those songs that sounds better live than the retail versions for both Frank and Beyonce.
