  • shittt the amount of people there!!! i wouldnt have even been able to get the first word out.

  • @ 2:40 she started feeling it!. lol i loved it though

  • The run @ 2:17 from low to high was amazing like she was going along stvies harmonica. Awesome performance.

  • AMAZING!!!

  • AMAZING!!!

    

  • NOW THAT'S HOW YOU PERFORM FOR AMERICA sn: lady gaga could NOT have pulled this off, she probably would've been up there looking the statue of liberty and Abe Lincoln lol while doing that same ol chorograph dancing like she does for ALL her vids!

  • it's juste amazing!!

  • And the head voice note at the end? Stupendous. I love u, Bey!!

    musicouch . com - type in the search bar - beyonce run the world girls song review - not spam

  • what's up with that girl @ her back

  • i'm not american and if i was i would be soo proud of her...such an amazing effortless voice ..so smooth and not trying to hard ....god actually shared his grace on her with lots of talent...just look at bono's face at 2:41 ..that's the same reaction i had ..speechless

  • Very music

  • iHaate how she used Major Lazer's beat

    sorry but im not a fan of this song

  • Here's the actual song -> youtube . com / watch?v=pcQwFu9r51s

  • The other celebrities trying to sing along with Bey was just futile. 

  • Comment removed

  • Great job Bey, should held that last note just a eeny bit longer.

  • 2:18 slays

  • Beyonce' is such a beautiful person and artist. I love her. =)

  • whoever said she can't sing but just shakes her ass should need to take a seat and sit back. lol

  • wow beyonce is so pretty and such a great voice i love her im like her biggest fan

  • Super proud of her!

  • The mormon tabernacle choir sings it best!

  • dumbest song ever!!!! omg

  • Once again Beyonce sounds better than everyone else..

  • I wish ppl could see the truth..

  • That was incredible!!! Hate her all you want but this THIS right here is TALENT!

  • I think we throw the word "Legend" around far too often. Judy Garland was a legend. I think Whitney Houston might be a Legend, but not Mariah Carey and not Beyonce - not yet. And just because she's made millions doesn't mean anything, there are plenty of people making millions who are complete wastes. Beyonce is incredible and she's at the top of her game, and I think she's smart enough to end a massive legend given time. She's amazing.

  • @hotwaiter thats what you think!!! At the age of 29, Beyonce is closer to "Legend Status" than many other artists around her age group or older !! and thats not what someone told me or what I think but, thats what I know!!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 uhm...you just agreed with me. I said she isn't a legend....YET. But I think she will end as a legend. She just has that ability to go from a Diva to a legend, but I give her a few more years before she hits legendary status.

  • @hotwaiter lol yeah you right

  • @hotwaiter Are u kidding? Describe a "Legend" an tell me how Beyonce does not fit that category. Then tell me someone that does, and wat makes them fit that category...

  • @hotwaiter You know nothing if you think Mariah Carey isn't a legend. To be under the age of 30 and be named the "Artist of The Decade", "Best Selling Female Artist in History" then have the "Song of the Decade" two decades in a row is legendary status. She is also the only active singer with the ability to control and sing in her whistle register. Fall back! You know nothing. You will continue to reside on Planet Bum in the galaxy of Delusion. Lol!

  • @sizzlemytwizzle91 She isn't the best selling feamle artist in history, that's Madonna.

  • @SolyBeatFreak Oh thank you for making me tweak it and realize another point. Mariah achieved "Artist of the Millenium" and accumulated her multi-million album and single sale record in a shorter period than anyone has ever done. Two of her albums are contained in the 100 Best Selling Albums List and she has more Hot 100 #1's (18) than any other female artist.

  • @sizzlemytwizzle91 Oh don't forget also she's in the list of the biggest box office bombs and flops of film history with Glitter.

  • @SolyBeatFreak Oh don't forget that has nothing to do with musical accomplishments. It's hilarious that's the only thing haters can pull out. Once again you've helped my case because Glitter spawned two of Mariah's best vocal performances of her career. Thanks again ;)

  • @sizzlemytwizzle91 Oh so you don't consider the Glitter soundtrack a musical concept? Those 2 Mariah's ''best vocal performances'' are from your personal opinion not something that she was recognized for. I think you should learn the difference between an icon and a legend. Mariah's way to far for becoming a legend.

    Anyway, go idolize her on one of her shitty videos, this here my friend, is about Beyoncé. Thanks ;)

  • @SolyBeatFreak Considering that you said "box office" it was understood to be in the context of movies. Surely you're not that much of a dumb fuck that you don't know the difference. Then again someone with that many grammatical errors in one sentence shouldn't be expected to have any intelligence. In closing, Mariah is an icon and a legend because she continues to break records with each year that she makes music. Thanks :))

  • @SolyBeatFreak P.S.- In case your first grade maximum education limits from you from reading the progression of the conversation, I was actually defending Beyonce and Mariah. I'm a huge fan of both. #KillYourSelf

  • @sizzlemytwizzle91 female*

  • @hotwaiter mariah anyway more succesful and legendary then whitney (the drug addcited) and i do also like beyonce but mariah was chosen by worldwide voting as best voice of alltime, #2 whitney & mariah is the first only artist with 5 consective number ones at her debut, first woman with most #1´s in th US history worldwide over 40 number ones and the best selling "female singer/singwroter/producer"of alltime! sry beyonce not near

  • mariah also would have made a better performance, she owns these song, i dont why you people trying to hate her. i think beyonce performance was o.k, but if you listen to mariah, this sound just flat and boring and dont try to bring whitney, she killed herself with all the drugs.. mariah on abc LIVE 2010, i hope whitney didnt listen, she would get a hard attack. mariah is just 40 years and has a decade to rock and i just say r.i.p WH

  • @zanaomusic Beyonce is a very experienced Vocalist. She wasnt trying to be all GLOSSY with it like Mariah. She wanted to honor the classic, the original & str8 to the point. She shows a lot of resonance & Power here. Both great flawless singers.They are 2 different types of singers & shouldnt be compared but here Its a nice comparison. /watch?v=Sioum_Fxej4

  • @zanaomusic please this was soulful as hell mariah didnt do it like dat ok wow so she added the fuckin whistle note in there that means absolutley nothin to me and mariah cant hang with beyonce NOW vocally

  • @DOMINIW5 yeah, apparently, NOW only. but...the truth is ..hahaha

  • @DOMINIW5 Beyonce don't put the whistle in this song or in any other song just because she can't do it (her sister can)

    yes now bey is better vocally than mc becase her voice is fresh and she is 10 years more young than mariah.

    I luv bee and i luv mariah but if u like bee too don't try compare her to mariah carey in her prime bcuz she can't handle this.

  • this is a touching performance!!!!! i looooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooovvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee BEYONCE GISELLE KNOWLES :)

  • i like beyonce, but this mariahs song she nailed it everytime and if beyonce has not her echo like on her concerts she sounds a lot unpleasant, but its o.k she did better

  • 2:17 that run is UNBELIEVABLE O.o

  • beyonce did an outstanding job on this performance. she is truly one of the best performers in history. i loved the way everyone looked when she hit the high note at the end! God bless you beyonce!

  • WHEN YOU HAVE HATERS THEY WILL ALWAYS SEE WRONG WHEN U DOING JUST PERFECT. GO WATCH EVEN MICHELLE WILLIAMS PERFORMANCE OF THIS SAME SONG... AND NICOLE FROM THE PUSSYCAT DOLL... THERE IS NO DISCUSSION BEYONCE CAN SING PEOPLE AND OH SHE IS MAKING MILLIONS! THERE YOU HAVE IT HATERS!!!!!

  • OMG this woman is just AMAZING it has to be FREEZING and..ug i couldnt do it.She made this truly an event no one today puts on perfomance like Beyonce..Sorry people theres no debating that she is now Legend.if she wasnt before after performing for the president and the country and being the headliner,this will go down in history

  • bEYONCÉ É UMA LENDA!..ESSA MULHER TEM UMA VOZ DE OUTRO MUNDO!

  • she killed it and i love tht build up towards the end where she say oh oh oh america..she sounds real good!!!! to be singing in the cold thts real good!!!

  • fox

  • I love Beyoncé, but please... Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston are legends. This performance wasn't even that amazing. Her voice is great, but don't come saying Mariah and Whitney can't sing. Because that's fucking ridiculous. They're out of this world.

    I started liking Beyoncé ever since she said that she adored and idolized Mariah. ;)

  • @CocoChanelesque Actually the records of awards, sales and $ really speak for themselves. Beyonce has won the most grammy awards of any female artist ever in histort in comparison to both Mariah and Whitney.

    I think Mariah and Whitney have great voices but have never reached the pinnacle of the career and talent beyonce has achieved. They had their chance and did not take it to the level Beyonce did.

  • @mybellemom omg lmao don't compare beyonce's success or talent to mariah and whitney. just don't lmao. everyone knows neither their predecessors nor successors achieved what mariah and whitney had.

  • Amazing

  • Frank Sinatra has done the best version so far, until I heard this... You cant just have anyone singing this. I love America! From the UK

  • Not Mariah nor Whitney, but okay, she did well.

  • @ThePharaoho Shes better than both... they lost their voices before 40 and she will always have hers because she takes care of it.

  • @MiztaBeyonceHimself That's your opinion. I think Mariah and Whitney are better. They have better singing techniques and don't sing with 10 runs all after the other with that hideous vibrato that goes all over the place. She's ok, but she'll never sound like Mariah or Whitney todau nevermind her sounding like them in the 90's.

  • @MiztaBeyonceHimself yeah but Whitney and Mariah already had the best voices from the moment they came out. When Beyonce was singing "say my name" who was saying she had the best voice in the industry. Luckily for Beyonce, her voice is growing with age.

  • @MiztaBeyonceHimself and plus she has a naturally deep voice that doesnt messes up as if ur voice was hight like mariah or whitney

  • @MiztaBeyonceHimself LMAO. It is common for women over 40 to loss their voice LOL

  • @RaciouS91 NO it is not.

  • @PrinceOfPassion why? after they are 40, they become more powerful compared to their age at 20, 30? LOL

  • mariah's better

  • super bowl 2009, that's all you need to know, still got it way out of her prime and beyond smoking hot,

    AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL super bowl 2009

  • I didn't like her voice, until this performance came into my refard. Damn, stevenzasissexy, this girl can not sing, she can SANG. Damn, go BEyonce!!! What a performance.

  • I think it's good to take an honest look in the mirror and say, "Hey, I'm obese; I need to diet. And man, do I look tired; I need to get more sleep. And I better brush those brussel sprouts out of my teeth before anyone sees them."

    America needs to do that as well. We need to stop plastering cosmetics over America's face and take a good look at what America needs to get healthy and beautiful again.

    The truth is best. And, like a vaccination against a deadly disease, it only stings for a moment.

  • America's patriotic song "America the Beautiful" invokes our spacious skies, our amber waves of grain, from sea to shining sea. Actually, That song reverses geographic realities. No waves of grain ever stretched from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast of north America, from Canada to Patagonia, or to Egypt to South Africa Waves of amber and barley stretched from the Atlantic to the Pacific across the Spacious skies of EURASIA (Europe ,Middle East,Asia) I'm just saying ((No Hate))

  • Can't nobody say this girl can't sing, that was awesome!!!

  • i thought she was gonna blow this performance out the water like the national anthem...but it was ok...i don't know but this whole scene looked a little bit trashy...like it was for some kind of benefit concert or fundraiser, but the standards were so low for the president of the united states.

  • @prosperabovehaters Because he's not the president! All I can say is how apropo.

  • @SimplySix1 i wonder if these people on stage knew this at the time.

  • wow jst beautiful!!!! great vocal performance

  • Im sorry, but forget about Mariah and Beyonce... Ray Charles' version is THE best.

  • Gorgeous woman and a stunning voice, but she destroyed the song!

  • we are not perfect but we are the only beacon that has stood up against evil in its many forms. like it or not, we r the vanguard of freedom. there is no 1 who will come 2 save ya when disaster, invasion, famine, plague, tyranny or war breaks loose.

  • Brings me to tears everytime

  • Absolutely beautiful as is America. when the beat increases when the flags come out thats a really beautiful part haha... A house Divided against itself. be well friends. Stay united my friends and my fellow citizens. We are the United States of America not the Divided States.

  • Nice. Check out barbra streisand's version too:)

  • And I'm pround to be a Californian..LOL J/K Go America...CALIFORNIA ALL THE WAY...

  • This song should be our national anthem

  • @DTDB1225 uh, yea. i totally agree. so much more powerful than the star spangled banner.

  • AMERICANS HELPING in HAITI, are representing the beauty of these lyrics.

    And crown our good with brotherhood...

    (Translation: Reward our good deeds with close friendship)

    From sea to shining sea.

    (Translation: All around the world.)

  • this a very good song she killed it thats why she shut all those other pop divas out

  • i got da chills watchin this. omg beyonce is amazing. i love her soo much. dat was a great performance by her as usual.

  • amazing. absolutely amazing!!

  • amazing

  • is that dereck j n the back to her right n blue lol

  • This performance is totally live and totally perfect. She was very nervous and it was freezing cold, but she nailed it and you know why? because she's the fu**ing best and her vocal skills are out of this world. End of the story.

  • @workitout80. You took the words out of my mouth. I love when people hate on her. They don't realize the more they hate the more we love her. Fan 4life

  • What I'm saying is: you don't like her? ok, you have the right to dislike her, you can even hate her. But don't lie about her. At times people even deny her talent, and that pisses me off.

  • How u know it was live?

  • I totally agree wit you. Beyonce is amazing n her vocals are out this world. ive always been a fan of hers. this was a great performance by her. she always does great!!

  • @workitout80 omq your so right thisz lady vocalsz are nothing to be played with

  • @workitout80 Hell It was COLD THAT DAY!!!! It was 20 Degrees out.

  • @workitout80 I agree ! Wonderful and so good!!!!!

  • @workitout80 yu are so right this lady can't be stop omq yuh qo bey

  • OMG! I was there!! lol

  • you go girl

  • Who's the man that's farthest to the

    left of the screen at 2:07?

    He sings beuitfully and I'd really like

    to know what his name is. c8

  • That's Josh Groban :)

  • The female Elvis :) - extremely beautiful with an extremely beautiful voice that's astonishin the world. Keep it up, Bee! Luv ya!

  • What a voice..she's amazing

  • damn that woman can sing.

  • i do really really loveee thisss (L) well done beyonceee

  • Didn't get stuff like this with Bush :P

  • Excellent performance, So many people hate on her and are Jealous because she Can Sing and Sang. She's not a one Genre singer unlike many pop stars out there. She is a legend in the making. She sings, dances, then can sing a anthem like this to show off her vocals effortlessly.

  • well i wouldnt say she sung this effortlessly. but yes. she is defiantly a legend.

  • I'm really gettin' bored of Beyonce killin' the game as usual! What a talent!

  • 1.23... no words as usuall

  • you killed it girl!

  • But i don't like the begging runs and pauses

  • People this is You tube, not a great debate. But I will say this about President Obama. He won the election in a damn near landslide victory. The majority of people in America want him to lead them. Thats the beauty of democracy and to say that he shouldnt be in office after winning the election in such a big way is to say that the majority of American voters should be ignored and have their choice to elect him as the president revoked. Now that hardly seems patriotic.
