I much prefer this to Beyoncé's saccharine version, on which she oversings.

It always gets overlooked, that BC didn't write this song alone, she wrote it with Toby Gad, an amazing song writer-producer. He really is the one who spear headed this song, and BC contributed maybe 30-40 percent of the song. So i'm just getting so tired of seeing how Beyonce "stole" this song from BC. BC also is one of the most difficult people to work with. Most of the industry now won't touch her, because of her out of control, "stage mom" and BC's spoiled, nasty disposition. But if you really think that her annoying, graveling, scratchy voice sounds better on this song than Beyonce, then i think you're in the minority....
