The 10 emotions we collectively felt when watching 'Lemonade' for the first time one year ago
Tumblr media
Sunday marked the first anniversary of Beyoncé's legendary visual album, Lemonade. The project, which premiered on HBO, went on to collect Grammy awards, a Peabody award, and more—but perhaps more importantly, for the entire duration of the premiere, Twitter was united and in awe of the singer. 
Together as a timeline, folks went through the rollercoaster of emotions brought about by Lemonade. In honor of the short film and subsequent album, we've gathered the best throwback tweets that express what was going through the world's mind as soon as Lemonade began a year ago.

Tonight, we gather together as the Church of Beyonce Knowles Carter. Hopefully she doesn't pass the collection plate. #lemonade

2. When we realized the album might be about Jay-Z....
WHY WOULD JAYZ EVER CHEAT ON BEYONCÉ???? #LEMONADE

I'm beginning to wonder if all of this was @Beyonce stacking coins to leave Jay...👀👀👀👀 #LEMONADE

In my opinion I think Beyoncé is telling her mothers story.. I don't think it had anything to do with JayZ.. On some "her story is my story"

3. ...and the panic as everyone scrambled to figure out who he could have cheated on Beyoncé with...

7. When you realize Beyoncé really did tackle almost every genre in one album
One day @Beyonce was like, "I'm bored. I think today I'll slay country music." #LEMONADE

10. And when it was over, we watched it and discussed it again (and again, and again....and a year later, it's still on repeat).

I think it speaks to the power of Bey that I've never been a superfan, yet 3 diff people felt the need to text me today to discuss #LEMONADE
— spencer (@theythemthere) April 24, 2016
"Women like her cannot be contained." Roses and raised fists for @Beyonce on her dazzling display of images and ideas. Delicious. #LEMONADE
