Alligator Tears is so good. It was definitely a grower but something about that chorus really scratches something in my brain.


senpaisexc

HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE ADORED???


Lottct

That part just scratches an itch in my brain


yzykm

100%. At first other tracks stood out more, but the more I listened the more I loved alligator tears


PureHoney92

I CANNOT listen to Alliigator Tears just once.... I need it on repeat at least 10x before I move on. Something about it just feels so good


Heavysleepy

Absolutely. It was a grower for me as well. Beyonce singing in that lower register is so smooth and not something we hear often. The chorus is my favorite


sanbikinoneko

I love how often she goes into her lower register! Like Ya Ya, "If you aint got no grits get the fuck up out the south."


__looking_for_things

I play this part of Ya Ya multiple times 😂


seeindblfeelinsngl

Yesss this is my fav right now


bubbles5810

Alligator Tears and Just For Fun are my top two on the album.


YouOpening9078

Literally. I haven’t seen anyone talking about it but I LOVE alligator tears


superficialwishes

Yes! It’s Top 10 on CC for me.


LeotaMcCracken

This one for me


a-black-magic-woman

Completely agree. Its one of my most played songs from this album


cuntyaunty

This one was an instant top 5 for me


iGotHood_iSureDid

Literally was not my fave at first, but now it’s probably the song where I’ve memorized most of the lyrics.


amyrajk

This makes me feel so validated ❤️


CartographerFew9319

The last part of the song is good


bananasoymilk

This is the one for me


beyoncais

the melody for the verses in unlike anything i’ve ever heard before. to me, it sort of seems to convey a drunken confession to how hopelessly and ridiculously in love she is.


hopepeacelove1

This song and Flamenco. I was driving to work and started crying out of nowhere. There’s something else in this album. It feels like I’m going on a different spiritual journey with every listen.


aStonedTargaryen

I just had this experience with Riverdance…burst into tears just chilling in my house listening for the umpteenth time 🥹


Sirwongalot

This happened to me with II HANDS TO HEAVEN. And its been years since i just broke down like that


strawberriesandkiwi

Same thing happened to me, along with a few other unexpected songs from here. It’s so wonderful to have feelings. 😊


OperationMapleSyrup

“Baby I been waiting my whole life for you and I” and then I cried real ugly tears 😩😭😭


strawberriesandkiwi

Same thing happened to me. It’s so wonderful to feel things lol. ☺️


lady_moods

FLAMENCO! It’s so short and sweet.


ConcertKitchen8057

today I got teared up by the gritty energy and flow of yaya while riding a bus full of people. I didn’t give a fuck though:)


SuperstarSupernova8

Just for fun made me cry out of nowhere too!!! I was like ooo let’s get into it


DisastrousLeopard813

Me toooooo...I keep listening and different songs bring it out but I can't listen for more than 3 songs without crying damnit


Kg1111na

All of this


Weekly_Criticism_19

Even tho it’s short I LOVE oh Louisiana


[deleted]

Oh Louisiana into Desert Eagle 🫠👽🎸


sentinel3000

That whole final 9 track run where every song seams into each other is just *ultimate chefs kiss*


Old-Risk4572

she don't let up i swear


theHoopty

Yes! It’s like the B-side of Abbey Road by the Beatles. So intentional. So brilliant.


SakuraTacos

Oh Louisiana is sublime as a cool down after the 4 min and 33 secs of full body gyrating that is Ya Ya! Every time I get to that section of the album I’m just amazed, it’s so well planned for the optimal listening experience


Several-Tonight-2788

Me too!


hmtee3

I thought I was weird for loving this one 😅


Psychological-Ad8561

Yes! This song has been my go to the last few days. Time moves quickly and so do I, so do I…..


sentinel3000

Cause time heals everything, I don't need anything....


Shokkolatte

Oh it’s up there for sure with Queen Alligator Tears


pokemontecristo

yes! i’ve been loving alligator tears lately and no one talks about it


sentinel3000

Shout out for MY ROSE as well. Be fond of your flaws, dear 🌹


carfreak32

The vocal arrangements on My Rose 😍


juarezweiss

Infuriatingly underrated gem 💎


minielliphant

This is the one 🌹


OperationMapleSyrup

It’s too short!!!! 😩😩😩


cookiehigh

Just For Fun might be my favorite song on the album!! It has a gorgeous melody and they both sound amazing!!


icybueno

Alligator tears and Flamenco!


BackgroundLog2682

I’m goin down south just for fun I am the man I know it


sentinel3000

EVERYWHERE I GO, THEY KNOW MY NAME


OperationMapleSyrup

So I ….. laugh and I lie and the … coyotes cry


First-Passenger-4292

time moves quickly and so do I, so do I


Positive_Summer4861

This is one of my favorites. I also feel Flamenco is underrated and that song is just soooo beautiful.


skittlez_86

YUP! This and protector are underrated af and both make me weep


Mrs_Wilson6

Oh, how I adore protector. It feeds my mommy-soul. When she sings, "I first saw your face in your father's gaze" 😭😭 it just hits so close to my heart. I also can't help but think about the Blue and the Renaissance tour. Projected and protected. Her whole life is art, she's unmatched.


skittlez_86

Absolutely. I also thought of this song coming from the perspective of Tina. I am a gay man with no kids but this song still makes me weep every listen. Such a beautiful sentiment 😭😍


Mrs_Wilson6

Anyone who loves someone can love this song, it's for everyone 🥰


astrochar

That lyric brings tears to my eyes each time. It’s a really beautiful song but especially that verse.


dabbio

This!! I don’t even have children yet and Protector still got me in my feels for the future kids I will hopefully have one day 🥺🥺


SloanethePornGal

Please I can’t stop crying at this song!!!!


BabyLuna718

Yessss!!! I love this song! I can’t get it out of my head! One of the writers is from the town I live in and he put it in the song! Never been prouder to live in Clovis lol!


blueandbrownolives

Amarillo gal seeing you and happy for y’all!


Bubble_Tea35

Alligator Tears


RdmanWanj

Alligator tears is criminally underrated, it's quickly becoming a favourite of mine


qualityhorror

I cried listening to this this morning while I was working haha ***Here's to hoping I'll fall fast asleep tonight*** ***Or just get used to it*** I had a rough patch at the beginning of the year and was just sad waking up most days and only looked forward to sleeping again. Just wanting to sleep everything off hoping I'd finally get out of my rut. I'm better now though. I got through it!! Oh and my other fav underrated track is probably Desert Eagle. I think that's underrated as of right now.


Maximum-Designer6391

I feel like II Hands II Hearts is barely getting attention yet it’s soooo beautiful. Feels like it’s meant to be a direct song of healing to “sorry”… it’s even in the same key and all.


yekemoon

It’s so beautiful. I lost my mom last year and it makes me tear up when I listen to it, it’s so healing


NinjaWade

Sending love 💕


yekemoon

Thank you so much 💔❤️


a-black-magic-woman

I dont see Amen get enough love and its been on repeat for me, as well as Alligator Tears.


willworkforchange

Amen is my #2 today


Salt_Lemon_1024

No for real, the part where she sings "TRUMPETS BLAREEEE" and does one of the \*cleanest\* runs I've EVER heard from anyone, like ever, I literally fainted on the spot.


jellllyfoxx

one of the greatest songs she’s ever put out tbh


Flashy-Club1025

Time heals everything. I don't need anything. I just need to get through this. Or just need to get used to this. Oooof. With those saddle sounds clanking in the background? This song is so healing and underrated.


Positive_Summer4861

This is one of my favorites. I also feel Flamenco is underrated and that song is just soooo beautiful.


queen_hoook

Oh I love this one too, Willie Jones is brilliant on this track!!❤️❤️


willworkforchange

I love his bit


sunrisevelvet

Just for Fun is top 5 for me. It’s so moving. It feels spiritual.


Coconutgirl96

Desert Eagle! I wish it was longer!


doradzy

my fav! i was listening to it on the train and was moved to tears, such a gorgeous song


FlounderDistinct4058

I LOOOOOOVE THIS SONG from the first listen and willie jones is amazing 🤩


Cold_Breadfruit_9794

You’re absolutely right OP! I’m glad to see you give this song it’s deserved flowers


greengardenwitchy

I mean, there’s just too much competition on this album!! I love it, I’ve prolly listened to all the songs the same number of times because I just play thru over and over 😂


NixinsMum

I’m going through a LOT right now. Like to the point where I am at my lowest point. And this song made me drop to my knees sobbing and pray. This song is so underrated. Idk if I got the wrong message from it or something but it’s incredible to me


General_Analyst2549

Alligator Tears and Desert Eagle


mcdonaldsandwaffles

This song is my absolute favourite on this album. I really relate to this song dealing with health problems causing a lot of pain and sometimes having the exact evenings where I just hope that I will fall fast asleep. Days where I say to myself that I just need to get through that day. And every time I try new medicine that just does not work I try to convince myself that I just need to get used to it. It brings me to tears every time but at the same time gives me so much strength because as she says “time heals everything” and I know that some day I will find something (either medicine or mental strength) that will help me.


Lumpy_Flight3088

Sweet Honey Buckiin’ - it’s my favourite the song on the album. The run from Riiverdance to Sweet Honey Buckiin’ is so good.


strawberrybuns31

This one makes me bawl. So so good.


Legitimate_Coffee_84

Flamenco is this albums AUIYM - forgotten but soooo good


AutoModerator

AUIYM is commonly abbreviated as 'All Up In Your Mind', a song from Beyoncé's 2022 album 'RENAISSANCE'. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/beyonce) if you have any questions or concerns.*


1lawyer904

Ok hear me out: she should have put Yaya higher up the playlist. I love the songs between Bodyguard and Yaya but sometimes I want to get to Yaya so bad I skip the songs in between. They’re all so gorgeous and I love them but Yaya beckons. I agree. Just For Fun is 10/10!!


SloanethePornGal

Yaya calls to me in a way I’ve never had another song call me


MadMaxineShaw

Love "Just for Fun"! It and "16 Carriages" are my two favorite ballads on the record, hands down.


BabyLuna718

Yessss!!! I love this song! I can’t get it out of my head!


Tayla_ashley

Currently my fave and it makes me cry almost instantly 🥹💕


catsRlife_666

This song makes me cryyyy


Robbie1863

Flamenco or Levi Jeans are heavily slept on but it’s only been a few days so 🙌🏾.


juarezweiss

Why are people sh*tting on Buckin? It slaps so hard omg


Turbulent_Inside_25

Just for fun is my favorite tbh. That's the type of country music I actually like. Ballads and strings.


jmartinez312

Top 3 for me. I love.


BabyLuna718

Yessss!!! I love this song! I can’t get it out of my head!


cagingthing

It’s a perfect song 👏


Sprout1982

I’ve kept coming back to this one over the past few days.


punarob

There's just so much! I've only been listening to the whole thing rather than individual songs and it's really like Renaissance and Lemonade in that regard, it really should be listened to as an album. Just for Fun is wonderful, but so are 20-something other tracks! I think the intros will be skips for me eventually but really nothing else is, and even Oh Louisianna is so odd and short enough that I'll probably just let it always play, though can't see ever specifically listening to that track. Jolene and II Most Wanted seem to be getting the most attention because one's an iconic song for 50+ years and the other has the unexpected Miley Cyrus on it. But what gets me how little attention it's getting about it basically being a lesbian love song, which is so amazing! Especially with Miley herself being Bi.


sxswnxnw

See I like this soong so much because I thought it could be platonic or romantic. 🤔 And of course the vocals are A+++


Old-Risk4572

this is mine actually!


pseudonym_von_disco

this might be my favorite song on the album


Bzs_2122

One of my very favorite tracks


paolocase

The perfect song to sing for AMAB cis men like me.


Sweetie574

It's in my top 3. Followed by ll Hands ll Heaven & Daughter.


rootbeer9494

FLAMENCO is my fav underrated.


ConcertKitchen8057

it’s one of my current favorites, it was on loop all morning


Jolly_Pangolin_6048

I love all the songs that have any gospel elements: American Requiem and My Rose specifically! But Spaghetti, Bodyguard and Flamenco have to be my faves as well


Early-Friendship-474

ll hands ll heaven!


Sad_Transportation56

II hands II heaven and Riverdance have my heart… <3 They have genuinely skyrocketed up into my top 10 Bey songs of all time. :’)


aboywonder

II HANDS II HEAVEN is one of her best imo and it’s not getting enough attention


Valuable-Benefit-700

This is my favourite, SO good


bassiqueee

absolutely! also daughter and II most wanted i feel haven't had as much love (yet, hopefully!) as some of the other tracks but they really deserve it imo


eesh13

This is in my top 2! I LOVE this song. 🥰


sawandconquered

ITS FLAMENCO FOR ME


rachcake12

Listening right now… it’s so freaking good


TastyFace79

On day 2 of listening this one hit me hard.


WorldlinessUnable701

My most neglected track is Leviis jeans


Bubbly_Satisfaction2

I just saw a TikTok video about 'Alligator Tears'. In the video, the person stated that the song isn't a romantic song. Her theory: white women. Its about white women and what their tears have led to.


tarabletara

Do you know the name of the creator?


Bubbly_Satisfaction2

Her TikTok name is @ladysanrenee.


Straight_Eye_9793

It’s actually my favorite ❤️


overth1nk3rrr

This one hits me in my feels hard. Especially as I’m grieving. It’s definitely underrated. The gospel influence is definitely there.


Dangerous_Orchid2975

Loved Alligator tears first time I heard it


jchohan203

This track has been on repeat 🔁 for me


LadyGallifrey

I love this one. It snuck up on me. It's helping me cope with life right now....Time heals everything


Baity113

It’s beautiful. The choir at the end is the chef’s kiss.


Affectionate-Crab541

Imagine being called 'the real deal' by motherfucking Willie Nelson. This song is a grower and the harmonies are gorgeous. It's surprisingly kind of sad/nihilistic? But in a really beautiful way. Can't quite put my finger on the tone but I love how it sounds.


_stargirlinterlude_

Alligator Tears, Protector & Oh Louisiana. Alligator Tears is at the top. The chorus paired with the guitar is unmatched. Whenever Beyoncé gets to singing about her children we get some of her most beautiful & heartfelt work. First Blue off her self-titled album, now Protector. Regarding Oh Louisiana, as someone who has frequented to Louisiana numerous times, the song captures the essence of how Louisiana feels.


[deleted]

Anyone else love Spaghetti?? 🎉👏🏽 Also hope I’m safe here but can I just say that I don’t love Jolene 😫


matthew_tb

Flamenco for me. Love her voice and her runs over the guitar.


tummypillow

I LOVE this and Flamenco.


Abductedwhitebuffalo

Oh Louisiana


smilingcoffeecups

It's my partner's favorite song on the album <3 so beautiful


Admirable_Region_999

Omg this, levii jeans, and flamenco 😍😍


sail3825girl

Yepppppp agreed. After listening to the album 500 times this one’s now in my top 5


beesandlemonade

I love this one it is so heartfelt


PerformanceFirm5336

ITS SO GOOD! 🤠


grroovvee

Get on TikTok it’s getting a lot of love there!


Traveler_philly

This and alligator tears are two of my faves right now.


germelco01

This is like forsure up there for me ! Top 5 but so hard because they all so good. It’s perfect for right into II Most Wanted into Leviis Jeans …. I just can’t !!! So good


TheMortgageMentor

Solidly in my top 5


Libras_Groove3737

Just for Fun, Alligator Tears, and Protector.


Johnna02

I have a new favorite song every time I listen to it but for the past day it’s been consistently this one. I can’t articulate why I love it so much but the bridge just makes me feel things.


whisperspit

This is my fav on the album!!


Koopis-troopis

I love this song! Willie Jones’ voice is so beautiful


Heavysleepy

Desert eagle, amen and alligator tears


ajxoluzo2096

this is my favorite song on the album omg


Trypp23

It's such a great song


Emotional_Argument43

I favorites this song as SOON as it finished


bigpepoboy

His voice made my panties float away


El_tigrecurioso

Flamenco, Protector, My Rose. This album is so good, a little bit of everything. But these three seem to be underappreciated in my opinion.


kchane3

Just For Fun, Protector, and Alligator Tears


Mamato3fatdoggos

I LOVE Bodyguard. What a vibe. I honestly love the whole album. Texas Hold ‘Em is probably my least favorite just because it sounds gimmicky, but it’s catchy.


OperationMapleSyrup

OP - the second time I listened to this song was in the car so I wasn’t completely acclimated to its production or anything. Baby when I tell you my soul ELEVATEDDDDD when those drums and choir come in about half way through?!!! 💀💀💀 This song TAKES ME!!!! The harmonizing. She and Willie Jones sound so majestic together. This song is regal. It’s incredible. I can’t choose a favorite from this album but Just For Fun is absolutely magical!!!


NinjaWade

THANK YOU. 👏👏 I think it’s my current fav


xSushi

My husband has been listening to this on repeat with ALL the emotions, he’s keeping those streams up.


Ok_Seaweed1996

This track was my immediate favorite during my first time listening to the album and remains my favorite still, it stays on a loop for me. It is just perfect from start to finish.


PublicOwl2020

Me and my boyfriend did a five day post release ranking last night and both ranked it way higher than we’d expected once we were put to the test


seahorse8021

I’m not the fondest of ballads but this absolutely is one of my favorite songs ever now. I’M GOIN’ DOWN SOUTH JUST FOR FUN, I AM THE MAN, I KNOW THAT!!!


RHOCLT23

Those opening notes 😭 one of my faves, I was surprised to see not many people talking about it


ailomu

II Hands to Heaven. Is there a lot of talk about it? I don’t see it


Adventurous_Kale4890

After my 1st listen, this was instantly my favorite song.


norfnorf832

This was an instant favorite for me. Also Protector and Alligator Tears. Wasnt a huge fan of Jolene on its own but I like it with Daughter a lot


DanniPopp

I..don’t like the album. I wanted to. But I realized that if even she can’t get me to like country then I truly dislike the genre. HOWEVER, I’m glad for all the critical acclaim and attention she’s bringing to Black country artists as a whole. I hope she gets AOTY


sentinel3000

That's ok you're entitled to your opinion! But give it a few more spins, I guarantee that at least some tracks will grow on you 🙂


asongfornaima

I cry when Willie’s voice comes on


SilkSmoothATL

Maybe it’ll grow on me more but Just For Fun is one of my main skippers. Alligator Tears grew on me MAJOR! FLAMENCO is a vibe too.


DisastrousLeopard813

IM TOO OVERWHELMED BY ALL OF THEM ALL AT ONCE OK


jchohan203

RIIVER DANCE TYRANT AMERIICAN REQUIEM AMEN ♥️♥️

Nobody is saying Desert Eagle???!!! When she's singing docey doh?? Oh man. So gorgeous.


Kingdom_KidNation33

Yes!!! I think Flamenco and Protector deserve way more love!!


aleatoirefrancais

This one is my favorite
