• Beautiful Nightmare is a song from pop singer and actress Beyoncé Knowles that was leaked online on March 26, 2008.

  The song is probably a demo track, an early version of a song slated for her upcoming third solo album. It leans heavily on a contemporary dance-pop sound rather than the R&B; sound that characterized many of the songs on her first two albums. There has been speculation that the leak was intentional, meant to generate a mild controversy and increased interest in the album.

  Knowles's as-yet-untitled third album is scheduled for release sometime in 2008, and will feature production by Timbaland and the techno duo, Freemasons.
