Three weeks after celebrating her second B'Day, Beyoncé is pulling the plug - at least for now - on the re-release of her recent solo LP. Thanks to a pending lawsuit over her cover of Des'ree's "I'm Kissing You" on her B'Day - Deluxe Edition album and video anthology, the singer and her label have agreed to stop distributing the albums and DVDs that include the song.

When Beyoncé sat down earlier this year with MTV News to discuss the new material featured on B'Day - Deluxe Edition, she mentioned that her version of the song - which is called "Still in Love (Kissing You)" on the reissue - wasn't originally intended for release and that she had just recorded it because she "always loved it."

"It was one of my all-time favorite songs," she said. "It gives you this emotion - I don't care who you are, you just feel it. So I just did it for myself - a lot of songs, I do like that - and I let people hear it and they were like, 'You are crazy, you have to put it on the album.' So I did. It was a last-minute decision."

Indeed, Beyoncé's team's paperwork - included in the copyright-infringement suit filed in New York's Manhattan Federal Court last week - depicts a rush to get permission to use the song, with letters sent back and forth up to and including the day of the deluxe edition's release. According to the suit, Beyoncé's team originally sought clearance on February 13 to use "interpolations" of the Des'ree song, which became a hit when it appeared in the Leonardo DiCaprio/ Claire Danes movie "Romeo + Juliet" in 1996. Lawyers for the two sides (Beyoncé and Des'ree's publishers the Royalty Network) started talking, and by March 3 - a month before Beyoncé re-released her album - Beyoncé's side had a "confirmation letter and license request" ready to submit.
