This release is something I never would have expected from Beyonce's label, but it is a crucial release. Beyonce has had numerous club mixes of songs from her "Sasha Fierce" CD hit the billboard dance top 10, and up until now, none of those club mixes were available commercially on CD. So for you collectors of music like me who don't believe you actually own a song if you just download a digital file, this release is for you. This isn't a quick money making remix CD of club edits--most of these mixes run 6 minutes or longer, and they are NOT segued together. And for the most part, all the mixes are house/electro mixes, not hip hop. Incredible. Oh yeah, and just to sweeten the pot, you get a DVD with all the videos from the album.

I simply love to watch Beyonce in action. Anytime, and anywhere. The music CD that comes with the DVD of her latest songs are absolutely GREAT! Sound quality is the best (as usual) from Bee. Worth double my money on this product.

For all of the Beyonce fans, this is a must have. The CD and DVD combination is exceptional. You won't be disappointed.

Excellent as alwaysm both DVD and CD. ell worth the price.Above and Beyoncé: Video Collection & Dance Mixes (DVD/CD)

I'm gonna be honest... i'm not a beyonce's fan... not even close. but my boyfriend is. so... i bought this for him... it has all the official videos from that album, but Sweet Dreams... my favorite song, by the way... but for me, thats fine, i'll watch it on utube... And of course, i'll recomended. Not much fan of these remixes, the original mixes are soooooooo much better...

The only good songs are Single Ladies and Ego, everything else was trash. I don't care what kind of mixes they added no one can dance to If I Were a Boy or Halo in the club. Epic Fail

The dvd portion of this set is very good. I was disappointed in the cd version of Single Ladies because it is recorded in a faster pace. I also didn't like that Kanye was on the end of the both the cd and the dvd. Why doesn't he just stay on his own recordings? I bought this cd/dvd so I could enjoy Beyonce not Kanye??

This DVD is good, the only problem is she didn't put the video Sweet Dreams from I Am Sasha Fierce. I liked that she had behind the scenes footage and interviews. B+

Package was ordered at least 4 days before Christmas. I was able to put this under the tree for my daughter on Christmas eve. I recommend doing business with this seller.

I bought "I am...Sasha Fierce" for my twenty-something niece and listened to it a couple of times and was not impressed. The songs, though some were well-written, just missed something, especially those that were dependent on the imagery from the videos that accompanied them.

However, "Above and Beyonce'" corrects that, offering "re-workings" that are major improvements on the originals, with the exception of "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on it"). That is the sole original that is better the way it was first presented. Turning it into a "dance mix" is unnecessary, and downright "sacrilegious."

Also, "Ego," featuring a horrendous rap from Kanye West, is filled with too many inuendos, unsuitable for the younger segment of Beyonce's audience.

The DVD collection is a welcome bonus, especially for an artist who, herself, is a visual treat.
