Beyonce performing in Washington DC
Like her or not, no one can doubt Beyonce's ability to please. Since co-forming Destiny's Child way back in 1996, Beyonce has been topping the charts worldwide for the past decade.
With the help of her doting husband and dedicated fanbase, Bey has continued to take the globe by storm, most recently with her Mrs. Carter Show World Tour.
In homage to her Sound of Change performance this weekend, and the Mrs. Carter Tour in general, we take a look back at why we think B is queen, with a countdown of the top ten hits of her solo career.
10.Diva
This song was originally released in 2009, and although it didn't officially reach the top 40 in the UK, it comes in at number 10 on our chart.
This 'I am ...Sasha Fierce' single features a sassy Bey sharing her wisdom, with the unforgettable line: 'a diva is a female version of a hustler'.
Sasha Fierce herself seems to make an appearance here, with lyrics about female empowerment, and an explosive video, forming just some of the reasons we love it.
9.If I Were A Boy
This slow paced 2008 single shows Bey taking a different direction to her previous R&B releases.
Inspired by a bad break-up, the honesty of this song drew in all kinds of crowds, and helped see Beyonce's publicity rocket.
It appeared alongside Single Ladies as the lead track on the Sasha Fierce album, and subsequently reached number two in the UK singles chart.
8.Best Thing I Never Had
Another Beyonce ballad comes in at number 8 on our countdown.
This song featured on the album '4', and reached number 1 in the UK. It was also seen by fans as a follow up single to Irreplaceable.
It doesn't peak at number 1 in our charts, but we hope if theres one song that will make you feel like revenge is sweet, it's this one.
7.Baby Boy
Like a fine wine, this song only gets better with age.
Realeased in 2002, this single features R&B star Sean Paul, and over 10 years on, helps forms a memorable part of her current tour. This song reached number two in the UK charts, but was held off the number 1 spot by The Black Eyed Peas' hit, 'Where is The Love?'.
It features at number 7 on our chart simply because of the way it's introduced us to the 'Dutty Wine' dancemove.
6.Love On Top
This particular song holds a special place in every Beyonce lover's heart.
It lands at number 6 in our chart, as it was while singing this on the 2011 MTV VMAs, that B first announced she was pregnant.
It only got to number 13 here in the UK, but we think it deserves to be higher, because who doesn't love the song that introduced the idea of Blue Ivy Carter to the world?
5. Irreplacable
Irreplacable was a hit worldwide. Co-written by US star Ne-Yo, it reached number four in the UK Top 40 back in 2006.
It's catchy hook and feminist tone makes it a Beyonce classic, and still leaves independant women screaming: 'To the left, to the left!'.
We love it for that reason, which it why it places at number 5.
4.Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)
A leotard-wearing Sasha Fierce took the world by storm with this 2008 hit, and the video's not the only reason we love it.
It's feminist feel empowered women worldwide, and the accompanying dance routine made us want to be Beyonce more than ever before.
The song peaked at number 7 on the UK chart, but we think it needs a higher ranking at 4.
3.Countdown
Although not officially released as a single, this song managed to enter the top 40 in the UK on downloads alone, proving just how good it is.
It takes place at our number 3 because it's something different from B, and it just works.
It's not only the feel good song we love, but the colourful video too!
2.Halo
If you've seen Beyonce live, you'll understand why this song takes second place.
This song yet again comes from the Sasha Fierce album, and sees Beyonce sing about her life, describing a sublime love. We can't help but feel it describes Mr Carter, which is why we love it.
The song reached number 4 in the UK, but Beyonce's live performance of it at Glastonbury 2011 makes it our number 2.
1. Crazy In Love
Finally, at number 1 is Crazy In Love. The song features husband Jay-Z, and was Beyonce's debut single as a solo artist.
The song was released in 2003, and topped the UK singles and albums chart simultaneously.
We can't help but love the song that brought our eyes and ears to the attention of Ms Knowles, which is why it gets the number 1 award from us.
