The duo -- along with two 'Run the World (Girls)' beatmakers, Diplo and Switch -- jointly produced the percussion-heavy number, which commences with a militaristic beat driving the track into its rhythmic lane six seconds in. Before Bey gifts listeners with her smooth vocals, a muted phrase that sounds oddly similar to 'Don't f--- with me, don't f--- me' serves as the background.
"Come take my hand I won't let you go/ I'll be your friend, I will love you so deeply/ I will be the one to kiss you at night/ I will love you until the end of time," the blonde-haired chanteuse sings over the marching band-like production with an assist from the Superpower Horns -- a six-member group playing saxophones and trumpets.
Her formula hasn't changed much; Beyonce once again proves she can move from pop ballads to bold numbers like this with ease.
AOL Music will release an exclusive track from Beyonce's '4' LP and a new photo daily over the next two days, completing the full album listening experience on June 22. 'I Care' and 'Best Thing I Never Had,' 'Rather Die Young,' and 'Love on Top' have already made their debut.
