Beyonce Bonus Track


Chris Cornell wrote and produced the newly tweaked Beyonce demo "Stop Sign" and it was finally released today. It is a very different direction from Mrs. Sasha Fierce don't you think?

  1. that is dark. i really like it. so maybe an acoustic album coming soon? that would be bad ass. she should totally do an unplugged at mtv with chris playing guitar for her.

  2. I just found the lyrics. I love them!!!

    I like to feel so high and
    You feel good feeling low
    I like my colors vivid
    And you paint your colors gold
    I like to see the world
    And you like your weekends home
    But i've been stayin behind
    While you refuse to go

    Cause your such a burden
    But your the weight off of my shoulder
    Cause even though im hurting
    It still feels like its time im growing
    When i thought that we'd grow up
    And grow together the same time
    Guess i passed you by at that old stop sign
    At that old stop sign

    You like to sleep all day
    And i like my minutes whole
    I like trips to the movies
    Watch TV all night long
    I like to go out dancin
    And you go out just to hang
    and i've been right beside you losing me
    and doin the same

    Cause your such a burden
    But your the weight above my shoulder
    Cause even though im hurting
    It still feels like its time im growing
    Cause when i thought that we'd grow up
    And grow together the same time
    Guess i passed you by at that old stop sign
    At that old stop sign

    I looked around and baby you were gone
    Where did i lost you honey
    I even slowed down thought you'd follow
    But you took your own roads honey
    Cause i've been travelin travelin travelin
    Only to find out that im makin this trip alone
    And i've been stayin behind while you refuse to go

    Cause your such a burden
    But your the weight off of my shoulder
    Cause even though im hurting
    It still feels like its time im growing
    When i thought that we'd grow up
    And grow together the same time
    Guess i passed you by at that old stop sign
    At that old stop sign

  3. She looks awesome on that cover for Diva. Anyways I really love the single. It is so different from her album. It suits her well. I hope she decides to do a lot more songs like this. I know she did an acoustic version of single ladies kinda like this and its amazing!Cannot wait to hear it.

  8. Fantastic song by Chris Cornell and executed beautifully by Ms. Beyonce.

    Looks like many artists are migrating from their "signature" sounds these days....

  9. I love it! I'm a huge Chris Cornell fan and I also love Beyonce.
    What a wonderful collaboration. I love the stripped down feel of the song. They should do more songs together! Wow! What a pleasant surprise
