I am so accustomed to the original version and Redtop Suite of "Haunted" that it will take a few listens to get used to this new version by Michael Diamond. I like that it stays close to the original but it's just re-arranged and re-structured. The new mix of "Crazy In Love" has a sinister feel to it. Bey sounds so sexy.

I don't think I like the Haunted remix much. I loved the intimacy of the original and the droning electronica backup that is missing in this remix.

Michael Diamond did a decent job on 'Haunted'. Would've been a lot better had he switched the tempos & drifted away from the original sound. BOOTS did an amazing job for 'CIL'.
I do enjoy the RedTop Suite mix you provided, Disco.

The new version of CIL is EVERYTHING, but that Haunted remix does nothing for me: the original is untouchable imo.

Love the 'Crazy in Love' reboot. S.E.X.Y.
On a side note, I also like the take Sofia Karlberg did. It really emphasises the lyrics, which I've never paid much attention to.

Bumped this album in the streets like it was brand new last night and fell in love with it all over again! It clearly was THE album of 2014 and that Grammy belongs to her!

This isn't even about Beck for me. Beck and Bey were the only two in that category that even deserved their noms, so his win doesn't upset me.
This is about Pharrell winning best urban contemporary album over Beyonce with that completely mediocre piece of work. IN WHAT WORLD is his album better? Even Jhene and Chris had better albums than him.

For the first time, I am defending Kanye's rant and completely agree with him. I own Beck's album and think it is suburb and one of the best alternative albums put out this past year. I am completely in shock that Beyonce did not win this award. I am not saying this because I am a huge fan (which I am) but because the impact, the release, the critical and commercial acclaim that came with Beyonce's album is one that was unbelievable. To me, this is like not giving Thriller Album of the Year. To make it even worse, the fact that she also didn't receive Urban Contemporary is a huge slap in the face. Come on Grammys. I hate when people cry racism over these types of things but its hard not to when seeing things like this happen.

I was shocked it didn't win. Granted, I'm not a fan of most of her newer music in comparison to her older music, but people really do like it more it seems I hate when people cry racism over these types of things but its hard not to when seeing things like this happen. The Grammy Board is like all old white men

Not surprised in the SLIGHTEST that she didn't win AOTY based on the subject matter and lyrics of most of the songs ALONE. Losing to Pharrell though???

I had a feeling she would lose AOTY, due to vote splitting. I was only surprised that it was Beck who took the win and not Sam Smith, but maybe he in turn split both his potential pop-supporter votes with Ed and r&b-leaning votes with Bey and Pharrell. Beck is not untalented by any means, so I can't be mad at that outcome. Like others, more of my annoyance is at her losing urban contemporary album. That's absurd. G I R L wasn't that G O O D, dammit.

The ALBUM deserved to be rewarded, period, and not just as Best Surround Sound.

The race thing , from what I'm seeing, is pertaining to being snubbed in the AOTY catagory.

This is about Pharrell winning best urban contemporary album over Beyonce with that completely mediocre piece of work. IN WHAT WORLD is his album better? Even Jhene and Chris had better albums than him. EXACTLY. Honestly? The minute I saw Beck in the AOTY category I kinda felt he'll get this. So I had time to get over this even before the ceremony started. But Williams winning a Grammy for his mediocre album that half of the tracks sounds like poor man's versions of Happy over Bey's LP5 is just injustice.
