I also cannot believe I wasnot the highest scorer for I Am...Sasha Fierce.
Blames 'Halo'.

o wow wat a mess
It's like a Donald Trump audio file of revelations.
I'm obviously a hunty, but Beyonce writhing around in that live performance of Freakum Dress during the butch girls guitar solo ...
Ah, Heaven. I've said enough about it in the past but really, no other song has come at such a beneficial time in my life as it did. It was the soundtrack to many nights spent staring at my ceiling fan, wondering why people have to eventually leave our lives and why I couldn't seem to cry and actually grieve. I thank Beyonce for giving voice to pain I couldn't articulate myself.
I Miss You is also one of my favorite songs remaining and I'd like to see it go to the top 10 as a representation of Beyonce at her most vulnerable; what I love about it is that there seems to be this inner struggle between the stoic and calculated Beyonce with the desire to open up and show a side of vulnerability. I've always applied the idea that her detachment is what potentially drove her partner away and that this is her first moment of opening up and actually confessing and showing her weakness. Up to the point of 4, Disappear was the closest companion point to something this ruminative, making it even more important.

I can't even fathom how "Get Me Bodied" was eliminated before something like "I Miss You"..

Come ON. You guys actually think Irreplaceable is Top 2 on B'Day? Really?
And goodbye at people coming for I Miss You and Schoolin' Life when both Irreplaceable and Love On Top are still in this.

This is something a fuckin' NERD who likes SCHOOL would say.
I feel like we did so well getting Single Ladies booted at an unceremoniously early stage in the countdown (in spite of the fact that you usually can't keep a big single down in these rates), that it's a shame Irreplaceable - you know, the song we're all sick of hearing on every. one. of. her. tours. - has clung on when it's suffered such as much fatigue over the years. It really needs to exit stage left (HA.HA.HA.) next.
Love On Top has never been a favourite of mine but I wouldn't bet on it going anywhere just yet as this forum's tolerance for being bludgeoned by its grating key changes has always been higher than mine. Baby Boy can take its rather basic self off too.
On the flipside, seeing I Miss You and Jealous make it this far is incredible heartening. Come through, forum appreciation of emotionally-charged deep cuts - sometimes it's good to celebrate the tracks that make your lip quiver and not just your bussy.

If people can hand-on-heart say they think Schoolin' Life should be in here over Heaven, Blue, Get Me Bodied or Freakum Dress, they need to pull a clockworknovak.
