@untraile there are a LOT of rumours surrounding the situation. BC Jean was not going to be allowed this song on an album by her record label, which was the reason Beyonce's team took it. Had she actually been allowed this to be put on a cd, Beyonce would have never PAID FOR the song. The minor details are a bit sketchy, but it's not like Bey took this girl's dream from her, this song is only allowed on her albu, now because of how popular it got because of Beyonce.

@untraile Yeah, I know, but I just meant that you seemed to know some stuff about it (as in having read about it on maybe for example Wikipedia), and therefore I wondered if you had heard about what I was asking about (Toby Gad offering the song to Beyonce), and if so didn't believe in it.

@stillilllife "But then again, i wasn't there so i don't know. Just kick'd my angry bone when i read about it."

@untraile Okay, so...are you saying that the part on Wikipedia about Toby Gad offering the song to Beyonce is wrong then?
-
@stillilllife Beyonce's father was pretty determined to get the publishing right's for the song and took it to court, so i guess she should have got a clue on what's going. But then again, i wasn't there so i don't know. Just kick'd my angry bone when i read about it.

@untraile Absolutely, fully agree with you there.
Beyonce('s management) and BC Jean seem to have come to terms now though, according to Wikipedia.
And Beyonce didn't take the song without getting permission. It was Toby Gad (the co-writer of the song) who offered it to her (once again according to Wikipedia).
He seems to not have talked with BC Jean about it though, so...I would blame him if anyone.

@stillilllife cover songs is awesome and lots of people learn to sing and play instruments that way. But if i found an unknow artist and ask'd to use his/her work and i got a no, but didn't care, becouse well, im rich and famous. That's not okey to me.
-
@untraile Because she did a cover of it...? Or what do you mean?
You don't think anyone should cover songs?
-
i like beyonce's version more than this one!

Fuck this is awsome. And if what i have read about Beyoncé is true regarding this song then fuck that bitch, fuck her real bad!
If she sounds like this live, I'd love to hear her CD
