I wanna run--what?
Sorry for the bit of gloating, but "Smash Into You" from Beyoncé's new album is so totallyJon McLaughlin's "Smack Into You" (not that he helped write it--I've read nothing that supports that idea) with a little bit of lyrical alteration.

he did. he even received the song writing credit on Beyonce's version. (according to wikipedia)
i'm all set to HATE her version of it. i bet it's oversung and just plain UGH.
also, if you compare smack with Jon's other songs, there are a lot of similarities. the feel of it. and the use of a single phrase as a chorus. the simplicity of it is what i love about a lot of his songs.
Argh--I adore his version so much; the fact that it's getting released by Beyoncé, though it'll surely get him a good deal of money if he's one of the writers as you say, means that his version won't be, which is just so frustrating.
Your problems don't exist when music feels like this.
Songs are posted only for promotional purposes (I love them and want others to know about them, too)--if you like them, please "go out and buy the record"! If you are an artist, represent one, or are a songwriter/producer and would like your songs removed, I'll gladly do so (just let me know).
