Lay Up Under Me

2011 · via Sean Garrett

Beyoncé’s earliest release of “Lay Up Under Me” on file came out in 2011. Mikkel Storleer Eriksen, Sean Garrett, Tor Erik Hermansen and Shea Taylor are credited as its writers. The earliest release on file is Sean Garrett’s, from 2008.

From the counter

Garrett put "Lay Up Under Me" out in 2008, and Beyoncé, who shares the writing credit with him, released her own take in 2011. Same song, two of its authors, each singing it their way.

Garrett had this one on record before Beyoncé ever touched it, and he split the writing four ways, Shea Taylor among them. Play his, then hers, and hear the same song land in a different set of hands.
