"Drunk in Love" is a song recorded by American singer Beyoncé featuring her husband, rapper Jay-Z. The duo along with Detail, Andre Eric Proctor, Rasool Diaz, Fragment, Brian Soko, Timbaland, Jerome Harmon, and Boots composed the song for Beyoncé's self-titled fifth studio album (2013). Columbia Records released "Drunk in Love" as one of the two lead singles from ''Beyoncé'' on December 17, 2013. The song is dominated by trap beats in chunks and bass. Its lyrics, which depict female sexuality, are sung by Beyoncé in a sensual and confident way. "Drunk in Love" received mostly positive reviews from music critics, many of whom called it a follow-up to Beyoncé's and Jay-Z's song "Crazy in Love" (2003). They also commended its appeal to urban radio and the pair's vocals. "Drunk in Love" peaked at number two on the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart and number one on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. It also reached the top ten in France, Ireland, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. At the 57th Grammy Awards, "Drunk in Love" won Best R&B Song and Best R&B Performance. The song's music video was directed by Hype Williams and shot in black-and-white in Golden Beach, Florida at a beach front manse. The visual, which features scenes of the pair singing the song together, received praise by critics for its sexual nature and simplicity. "Drunk in Love" was performed by Beyoncé and Jay-Z at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards. It was later added to the set lists of the second European leg of Beyoncé's The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour in 2013 and the pair's joint On the Run Tour in 2014. Numerous remixes and cover versions of the song were made, most notably the official rework by rapper Kanye West. The music video won Best Collaboration and was nominated for Video of The Year at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards. ==Conception and release== "Drunk in Love" was written by Beyoncé, Noel "Detail" Fisher and Jay-Z, who appears as the featured artist on the track. Production of the song was helmed by Boots and Beyoncé as well as Detail. "Drunk in Love" was recorded at Jungle City Studios and at Oven Studios in New York City.〔 Detail approached Beyoncé with a beat he had created called "Drunk" inspired by different situations from being affected by alcohol.〔〔 Beyoncé further helped in the production of the song, adding elements that Detail had missed.〔 She and Jay-Z later free-styled their verses for the song and Timbaland contributed keyboards. Elaborating on the conception of the song, Beyoncé said: "We just kinda had a party. It was so great, because it wasn't about any ego, we weren't trying to make a hit record () we were just having fun...and I think you can hear that in the record." In 2014, rapper Future claimed that he had previously recorded a demo version of the song. He worked together with Detail who persuaded him to record vocals for the track as it would convince Beyoncé more easily to record it. Several days later, Detail informed Future that Beyoncé was in the studio recording "Drunk in Love". However, when the rapper was working on his second studio album ''Honest'', he used the same melody of the demo version on a song called "Good Morning" as Beyoncé hadn't released her version seven months since he was told that she worked on it. When Beyoncé released her album, the track was scrapped from the track listing of ''Honest'' and Future was not mentioned in its credits. "Drunk in Love" was subsequently included on Beyoncé's self-titled fifth studio album ''Beyoncé'' (2013) which was released on iTunes Store with no promotion having taken place beforehand.〔〔 Following the album's release, ''Billboard'' reported that "Drunk in Love" would be sent to urban contemporary radio in the US exclusively. "XO" impacted CHR, hot adult contemporary and rhythmic contemporary radio in the US on December 16, 2013 as the first single from the album. "Drunk in Love" impacted urban contemporary radio stations on December 17, 2013, serving as one of the two lead singles from ''Beyoncé''. On March 24, 2014, "Drunk in Love" was added to British radio station BBC Radio 1's C-List. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Drunk in Love」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
