'Listen Macos install homebrew catalina. ' is a song recorded by American singer Beyoncé. The song was written by Beyoncé, Henry Krieger, Scott Cutler, and Anne Preven, and produced by The Underdogs, Matt Sullivan and Randy Spendlove for the 2006 musical filmDreamgirls, in which Beyoncé's character Deena Jones sings the song in an expression of independence from her controlling husband. Columbia Records released 'Listen' as the lead single from the Dreamgirls: Music from the Motion Picturesoundtrack album on December 5, 2006. It additionally appeared as a hidden track on international editions, and on the deluxe edition of Beyoncé's second solo studio album, B'Day. The Spanish version of the song, 'Oye', was released on the EP, Irreemplazable, and the Spanish deluxe edition of B'Day.

One of four new songs written for the feature version of Dreamgirls (originally a 1981 Broadway musical), 'Listen' is a soul-R&B song; its lyrics make reference to tenacity, love, the refusal to defer dreams and finally rise towards fame. Its instrumentation includes bass, drums, guitars, keyboards, percussion, and violins, among others. Contemporary music critics complimented the strong and emotional vocals of Beyoncé, and added that the lyrics perfectly elaborate on Deena Jones's life. 'Listen' won Best Original Song at the 2007 Critics' Choice Awards. It was nominated in the same category at the 2006 International Press AcademySatellite Award, at the 2007 Golden Globe Awards for all songwriters, and at the 2007 Academy Awards, for songwriters Krieger, Cutler and Preven.

'Listen' peaked at number 61 on the US BillboardHot 100 chart and generally peaked inside the top 20 positions in European countries. It fared better in the United Kingdom where it reached number eight thanks to a live duet performance of Beyoncé and Alexandra Burke at The X Factor, where Burke emerged as the winner after singing 'Listen' during the finale. The song was also covered by Charice Pempengco during the second-season premiere of Glee and Melanie Amaro during the finale of the first season of The X Factor in the U.S., where she emerged as the winner. Two accompanying music videos were filmed for 'Listen'; the performance version was directed by Diane Martel, and the second one, being Vogue Shoot Version, was directed by Matthew Rolston. 'Listen' was also a part of her set list on The Beyoncé Experience (2007) and the I Am.. Tour (2009–10).

Context[edit]

In the film version of Dreamgirls, Beyoncé portrays the character of Deena Jones, a pop singer loosely based on Motown star Diana Ross. The story explores the life of The Dreams (based on The Supremes), a fictional 1960s group of three female singers: Effie White (Jennifer Hudson), Deena Jones and Lorrell Robinson (Anika Noni Rose), whose manager Curtis Taylor (based on Berry Gordy and played by Jamie Foxx) manipulates their personal and professional relationships.^[1]

During the second half of the film, Curtis and Deena argue at dinner over Deena's desire to make her film debut in an urban film instead of the Cleopatra prequel that Curtis is producing. An angry Curtis asserts his creative and psychological control over his wife, informing Deena that he would not let anyone else 'handle' her, because, in his words, 'no one knows you the way I do'. Curtis tells Deena that he put Deena as lead singer of the Dreams because her voice 'had no personality. No depth. Except for what [he] put in there'.^[1]

In the context of the film, 'Listen' is a 1975 song that Deena records on Rainbow Records, a recording empire established by Curtis. She is actually recording the song in a booth as a track, but the song also reveals Deena's growing disgust at being considered merely Curtis' property.^[2][3] Used in the film as a last-minute recording by Deena before leaving Curtis 'to find her own voice as a newly independent woman',^[4] co-writer Anne Preven called 'Listen' a song which 'Deena is exclaiming, 'You don't know who I am, and I know I do.'^[5]

Production and composition[edit]

While working on the script adaptation for Dreamgirls, screenwriter/director Bill Condon felt the second half of the film needed a song.^[2] The 'emotional punch' of 'And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going' led him to ask the musical team for Dreamgirls 'to create a new and equally moving song to energize the second act'.^[4] Led by Henry Krieger, the composer of the original 1981 Broadway musical version of Dreamgirls, 'Listen' was written with help from Scott Cutler, Preven, and Beyoncé; it was one of four songs written for the film version of Dreamgirls.^[6][7] 'Listen' was produced by the R&B-pop production duoThe Underdogs.^[7]

'Listen' is a soul-R&Bballad,^[3][6][8][9] which is written in the key of B major, and set in common time at a moderately slow groove of 62 beats per minute.^[8] Beyoncé's vocals range from the note of F♯₃ to G₅.^[8] The song's music takes its instrumentation from the bass, celli, drums, guitars, keyboards, percussion, violas, and violins.^[7][8] According to Sarah Rodman of The Boston Globe, its lyrics make reference to tenacity, love, and the refusal to defer dreams; Beyoncé, as the female protagonist, sings, 'demanding her moment in the sun'.^[10] Chuck Taylor of Billboard magazine wrote that Beyoncé shimmers 'with evocative emotion', rising to new heights alongside 'a golden melody with spellbinding, rafter-raising production'.^[11] The lyrics are written in the traditional verse-chorus form. The song starts with the lines: 'Listen to the song here in my heart, a melody I start but can't complete'.^[8] A bridge follows after repeating the pattern and ends in another chorus.^[8]

Release[edit]

'Listen' was released as the lead single from the soundtrack albumDreamgirls: Music from the Motion Picture.^[12][13] Beyoncé recorded an introduction to 'Listen' entitled 'Encore to the Fans'; the song alongside its introduction is featured on international editions of Beyoncé's second album B'Day as a hidden track.^[10][14][15] A Spanish version titled 'Oye' was produced and released on the deluxe edition of B'Day.^[16] On January 29, 2007, 'Listen' was released as a CD single, containing its album and instrumental versions, in the US.^[17][18] On January 19, 2007, it was serviced as a CD Single in the UK,^[19] and several European countries,^[20] where a remixed produced by Fraser T Smith was later released on March 9, 2007.^[21][22][23]

Reviews[edit]

'Listen' scored generally positive reviews from contemporary music critics. A reviewer from Pitchfork stated that 'when Beyoncé belts out the chorus, the inspiration is real, tangible, and contagious'.^[24] Describing the song as a 'devastatingly beautiful ballad', Chuck Taylor of Billboard magazine wrote, 'Beyoncé delivers the performance of her career, another defining moment in the brilliant flick [besides Hudson's 'And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going'].'^[11] Peter Travers of Rolling Stone noted that the song 'adds grit and touching gravity to Deena'.^[25] Another reviewer of the same publication called the song 'epic' noting that Beyoncé 'unfurls the true range of her magnificent voice'.^[26] Comparing the song to Andrew Lloyd Webber's 'piano weepie[s]', a writer of The Observer stated that 'Listen' is a 'bangers-to-ballads ratio to die for'.^[27] Calling the song a 'showstopper', Sarah Rodman of The Boston Globe wrote: '['Listen'] is a big, soppy ballad that will move some to tears and irk others as a stunning example of art imitating life imitating art without a shred of irony.'^[10] Sal Cinquemani of Slant Magazine said that 'Listen' will undoubtedly be 'the payoff for fans of Beyoncé's voice who sat through the first [thirty-eight] minutes of [B'Day] waiting for the cum shot.'^[28] By contrast, Jody Rosen's review for Entertainment Weekly was less impressed, describing 'Listen' as 'gloopy' and 'an inspirational ballad about 'the song in my heart', which builds to an enormous schlock-opera climax'.^[15]

Awards and nominations[edit]

'Listen' was nominated for Best Original Song at the 2006 International Press AcademySatellite Award^[29] and in 2007 at the Golden Globe Awards and at the Academy Awards.^[30][31] Also in 2007, Dreamgirls received seven nominations at the 12th Annual Critics' Choice Awards, where the film won four awards, including Best Original Song for 'Listen'.^[32] At the Academy Awards, Beyoncé was not listed as one of the honorees. She is officially one of the four writers of the song, but as per Academy Rule 16, only three major contributors of a song are eligible. The executive committee of the organization had determined, during their meeting in December of the same year, that Beyoncé's contribution was the smallest.^[33][34]

Chart performance[edit]

'Listen' entered and left the UK Singles Chart on three separate occasions,^[35] In February 2007, it entered at number 60^[36] and peaked at number 16 on March 3, 2007^[37] before leaving the chart on March 24, 2007.^[38] On December 4, 2008, Alexandra Burke performed the song in the final 5 week of The X Factor,'^[39] prompting the song to re-enter the UK Singles Chart at number fifty-three,^[40] which is a higher position than it reached in the United States on initial release, where it peaked at 61.^[41] In the finale of The X Factor, Burke, who would become the winner, performed 'Listen' as a duet with Beyoncé.^[42] Accordingly, the song surged from number 60 to number eight on the UK Singles Chart on December 27, 2008, selling 28,000 copies.^[43] The following week, 'Listen' fell to number 30; it remained in the top 40 for two additional weeks.^[44] As of December 2008, sales of the single stood close to 120,000 copies in the United Kingdom alone.^[45] 'Listen' last re-entered the UK Singles Chart on November 14, 2009 at number 84.^[46] As of July 2013, the single has sold around 300,000 units in the UK.^[47] It peaked at number three in Italy.^[48]

Music videos[edit]

Two music videos exist for 'Listen', the first being a performance one and the second being a Vogue Shoot. The first music video premiered on MTV's Making the Video on November 28, 2006.^[49] The other music video was released online and through the Dreamgirls DVD special features.

Performance Version

This video, which was directed by Diane Martel, features Beyoncé walking through a performance hall in modern-day street clothes, performing the song. Once she arrives onstage and at the song's bridge, she appears in costume as Deena, dressed in a 1970s-era gown. Intercut into the video are scenes from Dreamgirls, most of which depict Deena's relationship with Curtis.^[50] These clips, however, were taken out in the director's cut version of the video;^[51] this version appeared on the B'Day Anthology Video Album. In her first outfit, Beyoncé is seen wearing a Wonder Woman T-shirt.

Vogue Shoot Version

The music video, directed by Matthew Rolston, features Beyoncé wearing a modern-day tank top, performing the song against a blank background which changes back and forth between white and black. Interspersed are some scenes from a photo shoot within her film Dreamgirls.^[52] This version appears on the Dreamgirls DVD release. In the director's cut of this version, Beyoncé is seen posing for a photo shoot not featured in the film in which she wears very outlandish clothing. As the shoot progresses it becomes more and more evident that Beyoncé is not happy with the direction of the shoot and when she is handed a bird to pose with she becomes fed up, walks away and strips down to the black tank top and tights underneath. She then climbs the staircase of the building to the rooftop and finishes singing the song.

Live performances[edit]

Beyoncé first performed 'Listen' on the Oprah Winfrey show and received a standing ovation from her cast members, the audience, and left Oprah speechless. Upon the song's completion, Oprah simply exclaimed, 'Wow.' The second performance was at the 49th Grammy Awards held at the Staples Center, in Los Angeles, California, on February 11, 2007.^[53]MTV News' staff members coined it as the Best Oscar Performance, writing: 'Beyoncé killed it with a passionate performance of 'Listen'.'^[54] Beyoncé later performed 'Listen' with Alexandra Burke on December 16, 2008, at the final of The X Factor, with Burke having performed the song alone two weeks previously. Burke battled to control her emotions when Beyoncé joined her on stage and dissolved into tears when their duet was over.^[55] Burke went on to win the competition later that night.^[55] Barbara Ellen of The Observer praised Beyoncé's performance of the song saying that 'there seemed something a little overpowering, invulnerable, dare I say, ungenerous, about Beyoncé - almost as if she were a giant slithering diva/snake hell bent on swallowing poor quivering Burke whole.'^[56]

In addition, 'Listen' was a part of Beyoncé's set list on The Beyoncé Experience and I Am.. World Tour.^[57] On August 5, 2007, Beyoncé performed the song at the Madison Square Garden in Manhattan.^[58] Jon Pareles of The New York Times praised the performance, stating: 'Beyoncé needs no distractions from her singing, which can be airy or brassy, tearful or vicious, rapid-fire with staccato syllables or sustained in curlicued melismas. But she was in constant motion, strutting in costumes.'^[58] In Los Angeles, Beyoncé performed the song, dressed in a glittering silver dress with mink fur. It was executed without any backup dancers, and live instrumentation.^[59] Jim Farber of Daily News noted that during the performance of the song at the I Am.. World Tour, Beyoncé blended her alter ego Sasha Fierce's potent and her own pained personality and added that 'those two emotions made this Beyoncé's greatest live moment'^[60] When Beyoncé performed the song in Sunrise, Florida, on June 29, 2009, she was wearing a glittery gold leotard. As she sang, animated graphics of turntables, faders and other club equipment were projected behind Beyoncé, her dancers and musicians.^[61] Beyoncé was accompanied by her two drummers, two keyboardists, a percussionist, a horn section, three imposing backup vocalists called the Mamas and a lead guitarist, Bibi McGill.^[62] 'Listen' was included as on her live albums The Beyoncé Experience Live (2007),^[63] and the I Am.. World Tour (2010).^[64]
