Disco de Beyoncé: “B'day Anthology Video Album”

You've got to hand it to Beyonce - few artists have the budget, vision, drive, and sheer talent to make an entire video album - there are few out the over the years (Blondie's Eat to the Beat comes to mind), but very few in the soul/R&B arena - while we've seen a few of these videos before on MTV (Irreplaceable, Deja Vu, etc), the majority have never been seen before and are EXCLUSIVE to this DVD, which oddly is being sold as an EXCLUSIVE to Wal-Mart?! I bought it online & it was definitely worth it. Beyonce is smokin' HOT in all the clips, and there really isn't a bad apple in the bunch - my favorites are GREENLIGHT (amazing homage/parody of Robert Palmer's 80s model-chic videos!), GET ME BODIES (a sly tribute/take-off of Bob Fosse's SWEET CHARITY "mod 60s" sequence if you can believe it with an extended no-holds-barred danceoff!), and more. Value for the money - if you like B'DAY, you'll love this! Only her video version of LISTEN is a bit weak, but you can just rent DREAMGIRLS!

I must say that I was not impressed with the album when it first came out, Deja Vu was a hot single, which I felt was an attempt to duplicate the buzz of Crazy In Love. I didn't like it because of songs like Kitty Kat and Sugar Mama. I just thought she had more substance than the content of those songs. Irreplaceable is in fact a very nice song, the video was suitable for that particular subject matter. But of course Beyonce is known for her stunning performances, in that vain, Get Me Bodied is where she really upholds her reputation. To be honest, she is like Kayne said "Picture Perfect Beyonce" and really made even the songs I did not care for appealing with the eye-catching outfits and her incredible energy, strong vocals and the last track with the video shot in black & white, which gave it an earthy effect, coupled with her beautiful voice was a perfect match. I can't deny her she get five stars. She is A Real B. Beyond Say....Beyond Words

EVEN THOUGH IT TOOK ME A WHILE TO REALLY GET INTO THE BDAY C.D. I HAVE TO ADMITT THAT THE DVD MADE ME GET INTO THE C.D. EVEN MORE. BEYONCE REALLY DID HER THING ON THIS ONE. ALL THE VIDEOS ARE HOT FROM BEGINNING TO END. I WOULD RECOMMENED THIS DVD TO ANYONE WHO LOVES BDAY AND BEYONCE.

I have to say that I love Beyonce' B'Day Anthology Video Album!!!...She put a lot of work into making these videos in such a short time...And, I for one am very pleased that she put this out...I watch the DVD everyday while I do my treadmill workout....All the songs in the beginning are fast paced...With the exception of Flaws and All...Then at the end the last two songs are slow....Just in time for my cool down...Watching the videos makes my workout go by so much faster...I love it!!!.If you're a fan of Beyonce' I think you'll enjoy having this in your collection of DVD's:)

This is a great Music Video Collection that show BEYONCE work efforts to make a video. You will see more than one will expect. She truly works hard and long hours in the music industry. Beyonce loves to work with all sort of people in the business of music, dance, and film; as well as never forgetting whom she is and her past.
