SINGLES REVIEWS - 2nd Nov 2009

Oh Beyoncé. Black and white, on a beach, sea-wet hair, rose petals, chap in flowing white linens. Yes, the video’s not dissimilar to an episode of one of those weird American soap things from the '90s. The Bold and the Beautiful – is that the one I'm thinking of?

But the song? Well I'm a Rihanna fan and therefore biased. But it’s good if you like heartfelt but slightly bland ballad things about break-ups and stuff. Another sure-fire hit. 3/5
