Beyoncé’s unofficial theme song for Sex & The City, produced by North Carolinian crooner The-Dream.

Beyoncé and Jay Z got married in 2008—but didn’t tell anybody. “Single Ladies” was seen as the couple’s announcement—even though it’s about being on your own. Producer Tricky Stewart told People in 2010: “It was the only public statement that they ever made about marriage.”

Her music video was considered “one of the best … of all-time” during the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards ceremony. It won the Video of the Year award, but Taylor Swift’s “You Belong with Me” infamously won in the Best Female Video category, which led to the start of the Kanye West and Taylor Swift drama.
