i think that the women in that demographic you mentioned love "single ladies."
everybody digs "crazy in love."
everything else beyonce did was released and forgotten about, from what i can tell.
not to say that she doesn't have ANY other good songs, but for the most part i think the women in that demographic love beyonce but are relatively indifferent ot her songs.
people "connect" more to lady gaga. nobody really relates to beyonce.

beyonce can sing. but janet can emote.
which is really what the essence of "soul" is... so no, janet isn't a great or even necessarily a good singer, but she emotes well.
so songs like "let's wait a while," then "someday is tonight," then "any time, any place," resonate better than any beyonce song you can name.
i don't think anybody believes a word that comes out of beyonce's mouth.
