The video also shows the star in several dramatic scenes, including against singing against a water soaked screen, posing with glitter all over her skin and with the wind blowing through her hair.

She strolls through the video wearing a series of revealing outfits including a see-through sparkling top,
Various states of undress show off the singer's slim and toned body to the maximum, as she strikes a series of acrobatic style poses.

One scene even features Beyonce in tears as she croons the slow, emotional love ballad, which she debuted on the final of American Idol back in May.
The singer described the song as her 'favourite' on her latest album 4.

However,the song is not a single, but will be one of many videos 'which will be released to visually tell the story of 4,' according to her record label Columbia.

The singer has been busy promoting the album internationally this summer - back in June, she performed at the UK's Glastonbury Festival, in what she called a 'career highlight.'
She also performed in the T-In -The-Park festival in Scotland and the Oxygen Festival in Ireland.
And Beyonce, who is married to rapper Jay-Z, will no doubt be putting in another striking performance when she performs live at the MTV Video Music Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday.
