There goes our first Telephone performance with Bey happening in space in 2015.

Maybe we'll get Rihrih instead :flutter:

They're being a little too sensitive imo. But in all fairness she could have recorded something like that audio and it wasn't really necessary to use the real one.

You can;t really say people are being hypersensitive, unless you have been in their position. I mean it was a tragedy what happened, and these people were so much more connected to the event than we were.

 

I mean just imagine having a clip documenting the explosion and death of your fellow coworkers, or family members at the beginning of a song such as beyonces.

 

And yes people make movies about such events, and some people find such things just as offensive, especially when the movies are inaccurate and more sensationalized.

 

That being said, if what Beyonce said was true, her intentions were good. And people have got to accept that while it may hurt to have that clip in the song, she didn't mean any wrong from it.

 

However, I must admit the severity of the situation in the clip does not seem to match the tone of the song lol...but it does sound cool together.

 

But for those who don't know the context of the clip, it probably fits right in.

They are being so dramatic, it obviously was used in good intentions. The song is about unconditional love. Come on..

Wow, I really did not expect something like this from Beyonce.  It's completely tasteless :(  She could have very easily created fake audio that essentially said the same thing to use in the song or taken a clip from a disaster movie or something.  I cannot believe she used real audio from the Challenger explosion.  

 

It's absolutely not "hyper sensitive" or "dramatic" for people to be upset, especially those directly affected by the tragedy or working with NASA.  Imagine if she had instead used a real 911 call from a shooting or audio from a natural disaster or a bomb explosion.  Unless your project donates the profits to help those affected by the tragedy and is about that tragedy, I find it extremely insensitive and even ignorant to use something like that.  I'm disappointed that this is coming from Beyonce and that so many people are defending it.  You must be very desensitized to (and I say this because I'd like to believe that it's not because you don't care) disaster and violence when you act like something like this audio clip is just a soundbite that can be used in a pop song.  It's much more than that.

Maybe she could have asked before just using it knowing a lot of people would hear it, or at least warn them.

 

She could have of course.  But she didn't ....  :redface:
