Last week, OC Online's Joyce and Philip saw Beyoncé live (along with every other person in New York, it seems)! Check out Joyce's snaps and see what other OC family members had to say about the show and their love for Bey'!
Philip and I began our "countdown" to Beyoncé the second we bought our tickets to her '4' tour. Actually, maybe not. My countdown probably started back in my school days, when I saw Destiny's Child give an ever-so-powerful guest performance at a TLC concert in Hartford, CT. Later Bey' milestones in my life included spending Thanksgiving watching her inspiring concert DVD one year, and the time I shook her hand at 40/40 and almost died! The 1.5 hour delay at Roseland Ballroom only made us even more anxious for her to take the stage. And it was absolutely worth waiting 4!

If you could listen to only one Beyoncé song for the rest of your life, what would it be? So hard! But as of right now, "Halo."
Favorite Beyoncé moment? OMG, at this show when she talked about the importance of the number 4 in terms of dates. The 4th is her birthday, her man's b-day, when he proposed, the date Obama was elected ... super emotional!
I lost it at last week's concert when: She did a Destiny's Child recap!

If you could listen to only one Beyoncé song for the rest of your life, what would it be? Hardest question ever! Ok, maybe "Me, Myself, and I."
Favorite Beyoncé moment? Another hard one. It's between the sand-tumbling dance breakdown in "Baby Boy" or this year's Billboard Awards performance.
I lost it at last week's concert when: Beyoncé appeared.
Name: Brian Phillips, Black Frame
If you could only listen to one Beyoncé song for the rest of your life, what would it be? Destiny's Child, "Say My Name."
Favorite Beyoncé video? "Why Don't You Love Me?"
I lost it at last week's concert when: Beyoncé blew me a kiss.
Name: Juliana Ribeiro, Black Frame
If you could listen to only one Beyoncé song for the rest of your life, what would it be? Gosh this is hard. A mash-up of "Crazy In Love," "Irreplaceable," and Destiny's Child's "Say My Name" — does that count?
Favorite Beyoncé video? "Ego" for the amazing dance moves.
I lost it at last week's concert when: She went on stage! I'm obsessed with her wind fan!
Name: Bettina Chin, OC HQ
If you could listen to only one Beyoncé song for the rest of your life, what would it be? Probably "Halo" – I love that song. Although my mum's love for "If I Were A Boy" IS infectious.
Favorite Beyoncé video and/or moment? I'm a YouTube sucker, so that clip where she surprises kids at a Harlem school for a flash workout event is pretty amazing.
I lost it at last week's concert when: She entered the stage. Her presence lit up the room ... and not just because she was wearing reflective gold. I swooned.

If you could listen to only one Beyoncé song for the rest of your life, what would it be? So hard, but a dancefloor fave is DC's "Soldier" remix ft. Lil Wayne.
Favorite Beyoncé video? The
Year of 4 documentary or "Get Me Bodied" video.
I lost it at last week's concert when: B teared up during the "I Was Here" finale.
Name: Philip Nguyen, OC Online
If you could listen to only one Beyoncé song for the rest of your life, what would it be? "Sweet Dreams."
Favorite Beyoncé video and/or moment? Video: "Get Me Bodied" (extended mix). Moment: When she performed at the 2007 Oscars with Jennifer Hudson.
I lost it at last week's concert when: She appeared on stage! We'd been waiting for close to two hours, with no opening act to tide us over. Oh Bey...
Name: Vanna Youngstein, OCNY
If you could listen to only one Beyoncé song for the rest of your life, what would it be? "Miss You."
Favorite Beyoncé video and/or moment? It used to be "Kitty Kat" – she looks amazing in that! But now it will always be "Party" because I was lucky enough to be at the shoot for the video!
I lost it at last weeks concert when: She got so emotional because the whole crowd already knew every word to "Countdown," the song from her new album!
Name: John Valdivia, OC HQ
If you could listen to only one Beyoncé song for the rest of your life, what would it be? I think it would be "Ring the Alarm."
Favorite Beyoncé video and/or moment? When B fell down the stairs, got up and went right into the next hair whip.. that made me a fan forever.
I lost it at last week's concert when: I can't pick one moment ... It was all so good. She looked amazing.
