This song isn't being talked about enough. The whole album is great, and I feel like this song is getting lost in the mix. But I think in a few weeks after the newness wears off and people listen through several times this song is going to be appreciated.
I love Alliigator Tears. It sounds draggy and almost distorted and that is interesting to the ear. It's like she's tired in the sun, drinking water while fanning herself.
She’s tired from carrying the murder of Jolene and her lover in Daughter, destroying the rap industry, the mainstream haters, and white racist haters in Spaghetti, and in the song she describes moving mountains for those who she will never be good enough for. She’s tired 😂
Actually one of the best songs on this whole album. The production quality is insane. Loving the slight indie/90’s soft rock influences…a little Eric Clapton vibes with splashes of Paul McCartney, lots of cowgirl acoustics. I love it!
This song needs waayyy more recognition! The blended harmony at the end is breathtaking! I can see me now drunk off wine singing to the top of my lungs. My girl know what she doing with this music thing, OKAY!
"Im not even a fan if country music, but this album is awesome!!" Well, that's why you like it so much because the grand majority of this album isn't country at all. There's some country in it but most of it is not.
@@captainsplifford Yeah, I "hear" Bey that she doesn't want to be pigeon-holed and possibly criticized but it IS A COUNTRY ALBUM, girl, lol!! A damn fine one, with flavors of other genres, but....
@@captainsplifford Beyonce said "it's not a country album, it's a Beyonce album" maybe she doesn't want a certain group to come picking the album apart
@@kamogelomanaka5371 exactly. Without the earphones I wouldn't have heard it. It helped that I was quietly laying down before bed at night. A beautiful first listening experience honestly
Someone please give her an award that all the white folks wrote the music and lyrics so she will go home lol 😂 it seriously disappointed me only good song is Miley carrying her but she made a lot of money for white folks on her black female empowerment album lol 😂 please just give her an seats so she will go away and no one can cry racist on her all white songs done by white prime except 2 small voice ins lol 😂
This song is underrated on this album. The melody is so good not to mention the guitar . I’m glad there’s no build up in this song, it’s good to have jn the background
@@mesaquecorreia3666 vai ter sim, no reny n teve pq era pra ter sido o act ii mas ela trocou, provavelmente os visuais do cowboy carter vem primeiro, mas como não teve antes ela vai esperar o act iii pra soltar tudo num grande filme
@FirebirdPrince lol I never wanted a tour from her so badly due to this album. I rather have that than visuals any day. Renaissance World Tour was a blast and now I'm excited to see what she could do with Cowboy Carter. I got my country outfit on hold 😄. P.s. I don't why, but I have a feeling she'll release all visuals once Act iii is done. Then it will continue to boost the sales for all albums.
I think this song is her saying that we have a rigid perspective of what country music is, but it's interconnected to many styles and eras. Southern rap for example, is very much country.
Seriously one of mt favorite songs on the album. Like. Damn. I can't stop listening to it. Her Delivery of the lines. This feels so aware of how shitty ol Gator is being but still loving them anyway. A very "sick of your shit but I can't stay mad" vibe. How does it feel to be adored?
Beyoncé is doing this Trilogy in reverse. I know that sounds crazy but if you pay attention to the last 5 tracks of Cowboy Carter the tracks starts to pick up tempo that sound like the tracks on Act 1. Go back and look at the visual for the song I’m that girl, if you look closely when she walks through the doors at the beginning she has 2 futuristic looks but it cuts to a l messy hair with a denim jacket and a polkadot leotard that looks very country. And if you listen to the last 15 seconds of Amen in Cowboy Carter and put I’m that girl right behind it, it’s blends so well. That’s why she hasn’t released the visual it’s part of a visual movie. But if that does not convince you listen to the last 10 seconds of both Amen and I’m that girl both outtro are the same. Oh Beyoncé you genius
I saw an interview with one of her writers stating that this album was actually first. But, due to Covid, they decided to go with putting Renaissance first to kind of wake up and energize people after coming out of lockdown. Yeah, the albums flow together really well.
it's not reverse, she said cowboy carter should've been act i, but she changed to renaissance, so cowboy carter is 1, renaissance is 2 and act iii is actually 3
@@oliverbolt6307 The funny thing is, while you were typing, thinking your comment was going to be so clever, Beyonce and Taylor are friends, enjoying each others success, bringing in money, and couldn't care less about haters like you. Go outside and touch grass, social media isn't real nor are celebrity beefs. You're here listening, right? So you've served your purpose and put money in Country Carter's pocket! Y'all come back now, ya here.😂
I wanna be a big music super star like Beyonce one day I pray that dream comes true even though my music isn't gaining enough attention right now I'm still keeping the hope alive
Beyonce's vocal range is maximized on this joint....notes being bended, pushed and range is into warp drive...after all of these years listening, admiring absolute genius, Beyonce still goes beyond magnificent once again....Can hear it on EVERY song on album...Genius personified
Mark my words.... We're all gonna be blown away when act 3 is an opera album. SHE IS LEAVING CRUMBS ALL OVER THE PLACE! RENAISSANCE WAS A PERIOD IN ITALIAN HISTORY. ALL THE OPERA SHE IS SPRINKLING. AND THE NATIONAL DISH OF ITALY 🍝 I am calling it right now. There are a handful of operatic divas of colors.... AND THE WORLD NEEDS MORE!!!!! LET'S GOOOOOO!!!! like this comment so I can come back when I am right 👍🏽 😂
Omg Beyoncé isn’t gonna let me sleep before work. I’m just jaw dropped rn it’s like I can’t pick a favorite because the album in a whole is a banger and it’s definitely one of her best works. Can I please get some whiskey 🥃
I'm so excited to hear my cuzin Linda Martell. Real name Thelma...She's my grandmothers first cousin.. she was my school bus driver as a kid.. it's dope Beyonce paid homage to her... I wonder how does that feels.... Even though she's 82 now...
For me 1) 16 Carriages 2) Alligator Tears if 👆🏽 wasn't on the album it would be #1 though 🙂 3rd spot is tied "sighs" Bodyguard & Texas Hold Em 4) Daughter 5) Desert Eagle The rest of the album is kind of a hit or a miss but these are definitely the stand out tracks I think they should all be singles 👌🏽.

Facts on facts. 💯

Same, it is getting interesting so now I have to investigate the homework of hers with the country genre...
"Im not even a fan if country music, but this album is awesome!!"
Well, that's why you like it so much because the grand majority of this album isn't country at all. There's some country in it but most of it is not.
It's a BEYONCÉ album not a Country album ....Said the Queen 🐝 🤷🏿♀️💯
Most underrated song on the album
IT'S NOT A COUNTRY ALBUM...ITS A BEYONCÉ ALBUM! POINT BLANK AND THE PERIOD!❤❤❤❤
What about it isn't a country album? It's got all the hallmarks of a country album.
It's a country album
Country as can a be Go Beyonce 🔥🔥🔥🔥

The comment I was looking for. The last 30 seconds is crazy insane good. Especially if you have a good set of earphones
I feel and hear Prince vibes on this song with a little touch of Fleetwood Mac
@@kamogelomanaka5371 exactly. Without the earphones I wouldn't have heard it. It helped that I was quietly laying down before bed at night. A beautiful first listening experience honestly
The fact that every song on this album is better than the last one is really unbelievable
I’m so happy it kept getting better and better. Slow warm up for me
But by the time bodyguard came on I was warmed up then I cried during Jolene lol
Jolene cried as well @@bperez8656
Listen I'm not even writing this comment from earth I'll be back soon 😂

alllllllllllthawaaaaayyyyy 💖
This is how I felt about Renaissance, now I gotta get this one too! Might as well prepare to get act iii! 😅
Exactly. It's going to sound godly
I feel like this album is beyonce being most authentic self than we have seen in years.
Since Lemonade imo
Every album of hers bar I’m sasha fierce was her authentic self
Her voice being wherever the hell she wants it speaks to authenticity too. She uses so much more of her range here. Her lows especially. It's rich.
Her voice sounds great with the acoustic instruments throughout the album.
Since Lemonade
The Bottom Harmony is literally taking my breath away! This woman is SANGING!!!
Goosebumps 🥴🥰
😊
yaaaaa
I TAKE IT BACK THIS ONES MY FAV
I’m saying the same thing! 💕
Same 😩❤️
They are all my favs 🤩
MINES TOO!!!!!
i love it!!
This song is underrated on this album. The melody is so good not to mention the guitar . I’m glad there’s no build up in this song, it’s good to have jn the background
Someone down the street from me wrote and played the guitar in this song
Love the visual imagery chosen for each song. Its pleasing and makes me really focus on the lyrics. I dont even miss music videos if im being honest
Acho que não teremos nem no ACT III 😢
@@mesaquecorreia3666 vai ter sim, no reny n teve pq era pra ter sido o act ii mas ela trocou, provavelmente os visuais do cowboy carter vem primeiro, mas como não teve antes ela vai esperar o act iii pra soltar tudo num grande filme

“squeeze every ounce of love from my body.. yeahhhhh” this part

Damn this whole album is NO SKIPS! I’m not even really into country music
Same no skips. Texas hold ‘em still hasn’t rubbed on me but it’s a great piece of art
It’s western outlaw themed
Country sounds
Soft rock
Indie rock
Surf rock
Rap
Hip hop
Opera
Pop country 👏🏻
Her bass part when the song went acapella>>>>>>>>
2:08 y’all hear that lil layering after she says “boots” ?😭 I’m really obsessed
This is a "You gon F around? You gon find out" song y'all.
Never been front row on a drop.. I like this
Each Track gets better Album of the Year
say lesss!
People will really get this song in a few months.
This album deserves a Pulitzer, I swear to God. This is a masterpiece. Every single song is better, and better.
💯
i will work on a song with Beyonce one day, speaking it into existence 🙏🏼
i will be one of her dancers one day, manifesting
I pray that you get your chance. In His name. Keep putting it out to the world, Bey sees everything God too. ❤️🔥
I wish I could tag her in this
And I'm a be choreographing for her so we'll see each other one day.

so ready for this album!!
I’ve never been a country fan but Beyoncé you’ve sold me almost every single song is beautiful, unique and refreshing!
This the best vocal arrangement of the whole album😢
I like the Visual Art
someone said, "i used to be a fan of Beyonce but now IM AN AIR CONDITIONER" sentiment FELT!
Most underviewed track
Feels like a Southern hymn
This one is seriously my favorite. Never getting over it.
I like the way she sang this one
The beats on all these songs is NEXT LEVEL. 😮
This song give me old Beyoncé vibes for some reason 😍👏🏾
A collaboration with Beyonce is definitely on my bucket list I’m manifesting it 🥰🥰🥰🐝🐝🐝
This song brought me to tears. I felt this! Thank you for another incredible body of work! She really never misses!🐝❤
I’m hearing Fleetwood Mac’s the chain as the beat. Absolutely love this album
Omg Beyoncé isn’t gonna let me sleep before work. I’m just jaw dropped rn it’s like I can’t pick a favorite because the album in a whole is a banger and it’s definitely one of her best works. Can I please get some whiskey 🥃
I love the last part 2:33
It just sounds so pleasing ❤
I got 2001-2003 vibe’s from that part her vocals sound like she was going back to time😍👏🏾
I always rewind to this part because VOCALS!!!
I LOVE THE SUSPENSE AND EERIE SOUNDS IN THIS SONG. ITS VERY OLD WESTERN
This is like the "flaws and all" country style. I don't know why I remember that one with this song, lol.
Yessss I can hear it 🙌🏾🙌🏾❤️❤️❤️
I cannot stop playing this song omggggg. It helps me sleep and that is the best thing ever
I'm so excited to hear my cuzin Linda Martell. Real name Thelma...She's my grandmothers first cousin.. she was my school bus driver as a kid.. it's dope Beyonce paid homage to her... I wonder how does that feels.... Even though she's 82 now...
Wow!! You must be proud!!
Might be my fave song on the album!
All of her songs on her album are amazing!
🤩♥️
Upgrading the expression from crocodile tears to alligator tears 😂 game changer
easily climbed it way to my #1 favorite on the album after a few listens
This is so far the second best song on the Album after Daughter, who agrees?
Bodyguard is number 1. Texas Holdem 2. This would be 3.
For me 1) 16 Carriages
2) Alligator Tears if 👆🏽 wasn't on the album it would be #1 though 🙂
3rd spot is tied "sighs"
Bodyguard & Texas Hold Em
4) Daughter
5) Desert Eagle
The rest of the album is kind of a hit or a miss but these are definitely the stand out tracks I think they should all be singles 👌🏽.
I woke up today thinking “How does it feel to be adored?” Give Beyonce best Country Album of the Year!!! Please and thank you!!!!!
Just a frikkin' goooood album! Congratulations Beyonce. She doesn't disappoint! Another fav!❤❤
This is like the "plastic off the sofa" of act ii
This is defintely going in rotation!!! I love this song!!! This is what my summer 2024 needed🤙🏾
I truly feel like this song captures the essence of being a mother
