Run the World (Girls)

"Run the World (Girls)" is a song recorded by American recording artist Beyoncé, from her fourth studio album ''4'' (2011), released as the lead single from the album on April 21, 2011. It was written by Terius "The-Dream" Nash, Beyoncé, Nick "Afrojack" van de Wall, Wesley "Diplo" Pentz, David "Switch" Taylor, and Adidja Palmer. Production was handled by Switch, The-Dream, Beyoncé, and Shea Taylor. The song's development was motivated by the fact that Beyoncé wanted something different: a mixture of different cultures and eras, a new sound, and a message which would give women strength. An unedited demo of the song, then thought to be titled "Girls (Who Run the World)", was leaked on the internet on April 18, 2011. "Run the World" premiered on US radio on April 21, 2011, and was digitally released the same day.
"Run the World" is a dancehall and go-go-influenced R&B song, and heavily samples "Pon de Floor" by Major Lazer. The song's title and lyrics comprise an unapologetically aggressive message promoting female empowerment. "Run the World" initially divided critics; some complimented the song's sample, its musical direction, and Beyoncé's aggressiveness, while others criticized the continuation of past themes and stated that they wanted to see Beyoncé covering new topics. Several critics compared "Run the World" to Beyoncé's other singles with similar themes such as "Independent Women" (2000) – with Destiny's Child, and "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" (2008) among others, stating that "Run the World" takes a more direct and assertive approach towards female empowerment.
The single peaked at number 29 on the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart, and reached the top 10 in Australia, Belgium, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Scotland and South Korea. "Run the World" was a top 20 hit in Canada, France, Ireland, Italy, and the United Kingdom. The song's accompanying music video was directed by Francis Lawrence and was filmed in California over a three day span. It received widespread critical acclaim, with critics affirming that Beyoncé started a dance revolution and favoring the heavily-choreographed visuals. The video won Best Choreography at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards and Best Dance Performance at the 2011 Soul Train Music Awards.
Beyoncé promoted "Run the World" with high-profile live performances, notably at the 2011 ''Billboard'' Music Awards and on the French ''X Factor''. Although her performance at the ''Billboard'' Music Awards was well received by critics, it ignited controversy surrounding the production due to visual similarities to a performance by Italian pop star Lorella Cuccarini in February 2010 at the 60th Sanremo Music Festival in Italy. "Run the World" was used to awaken the crew of the final mission of the US Space Shuttle Atlantis and was dedicated to Mission Specialist Sandra Magnus. Heather Morris covered "Run the World" for the American television show ''Glee'' episode "Asian F".
==Background and development==
In an interview with The Capital FM Network in early March 2011, Shea Taylor confirmed that ''4'' lead single would premiere at the end of April.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Beyoncé to release new single? )〕 "Run the World" was written by Terius "The-Dream" Nash, Beyoncé, Nick van de Wall, Thomas Wesley Pentz, Dave Taylor, and Adidja Palmer. It was produced by Switch, The-Dream, Beyoncé and Taylor. "Run the World" was recorded by DJ Swivel and Pat Thrall at MSR Studios, New York City, and was mixed by Serban Ghenea at MixStar Studios, Virginia Beach.〔 Before release, the song's title was rumored to be "Girls (Who Run the World)". On April 14, 2011, two portions of the song leaked online〔 while an unfinished demo of "Run the World (Girls)" was leaked online on April 18, 2011. In an interview with ''Billboard'', Beyoncé described the song:

It's definitely riskier than something a bit more... simple. I just heard the track and loved that it was so different: it felt a bit African, a bit electronic and futuristic. It reminded me of what I love, which is mixing different cultures and eras — things that typically don't go together — to create a new sound. I can never be safe; I always try and go against the grain. As soon as I accomplish one thing, I just set a higher goal. That's how I've gotten to where I am.〔

Between June 16 and June 27, 2011, one song from ''4'' each day was available to listen to on Beyoncé's official website, together with its accompanying photographs from the album packaging and a quote. On June 27, 2011, "Run the World (Girls)" was the twelfth song to be made available. In the accompanying quote, Beyoncé said: "I try to write songs that will bring out the best in all of us and keep us close together. I think about saying the things that women want to say but sometimes are not confident enough to say. I am going to continue to write those songs that give women strength."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Beyoncé's New Album Out Now & Streaming In Full | The Official Beyoncé Site )
