I'm pretty sure the remix of the song was not released as a single. It was released to iTunes as a bonus track EP with other bonus tracks from the I Am... Sasha Fierce album. The CD single did not include the remix and the release history section in this article does not provide any indication that anything other than Beyoncé's solo version was released. And according to this article from Billboard.biz, after the Sasha Fierce bonus track EP was released to iTunes, most radio stations were playing the original version, which to me seems like that was the version released to radio. Are there any sources that show the Gaga remix was released as a single? I don't see any in this article stating such, and therefore I don't think Gaga's single chronology should not be present in the infobox. – Chase ( talk) 23:10, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
The style of the video looks like a rough early demo. As the video starts, the scenes seem polished, and CGI is in full effect (with the camera's on the men's head), but as the video continues, the blue masks on the men are not edited out, and reflection from the green screen is seen on Beyonce's skin. Later in the video, Beyonce is seen seducing a hooded man (presumably, the hood should have been edited out and replaced with the aforementioned cameras). Beyonce lifts her heel to step on the man's thigh; her foot appears to hover in space as what would typically be considered a result of poor editing. Also, later in the video, the green backdrop is left unkeyed and the firing effects seem like quick renderings used for comping. Being the official release of the video suggests that this style is intentional; but given that the video was leaked ahead of schedule, it could also have originally been an unfinished demo.
Shouldn't there be a Gaga Chronology singles section under Beyonce's where the info box is? She is featured on the single after all.. calvin999 ( talk) 19:26, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
