Beyoncé - Dangerously In Love

Dangerously in love? Just how dangerously in love are you Beyoncé?

Are you so dangerously in love that if you saw your lover on the opposite side of the A556, you'd try and dash across at rush hour?

Are you so dangerously in love that if offered a telephone that you knew was electrified, you'd still try and call your bloke, even though there would be 240 volts of consequences?

Beyoncé. Are you so dangerously in love that you'd still try and see your other half, even if his father was Skeletor and Skeletor had expressly forbidden you from seeing each other?

Beyoncé - B'day

B'day. Beyoncé actually called her album B'day, blissfully unaware of the fact that a B'day or 'bidet' is a device for washing your arse.

To continue with the theme of excrement, Beyoncé has stuck with the R&B philosophy of crap spelling. So we have song titles like 'Suga Mama', which isn't too bad. It could just be a typo. We also have 'Upgrade U', which is clearly deliberate; 'Kitty Kat', which is neither 'kitty cat' nor 'Kit-e-Kat' the nutritous feline feed; the baffling 'Freakum Dress'; and 'Get Me Bodied', which means NOTHING.

Beyoncé's a bright girl. I'd be very surprised if she couldn't spell. She's only doing this to show off in front of her friends. Her friend on this record is Jay-Z - a man who doesn't even have the decency to be embarrassed about his own outrageous name.

If I were in Beyoncé's position, I'd be making every effort to make use of my power as a force for good. I would ditch trendily-named rappers in favour of ones with good sensible names, like Graham - names that you can set your watch by. I'd pioneer a new trend in comfortable trousers and sensible shoes and I'd write songs about grammar and how to sidestep the frustrations of dealing with telephone helpdesks.

Come on Beyoncé: Use your powers as a force for good.
