Pop culture sensation Beyonce Knowles gets up close and personal in an ABC special airing Thanksgiving night, sharing what she’s thankful for this season.

“I’m thankful for my life, I’m thankful for my health and my family and for music and for having the best job in the world,” she said.

In a performance made during her I Am… Tour, this summer at the Encore Theater at Wynn, Las Vegas, Knowles shares the inspiration behind many of her hits.

“People don’t know that these songs meant more than just the songs that are catchy,” she said. “It’s my life.”

Beyonce said the hit “Dangerously in Love,” off her debut solo album, was when she fell for her husband, hip hop mogul Jay-Z.

“A lot of the people in the audience would know ‘Crazy in Love,’ but would not particularly know this is when I met my first love … my husband,” Beyonce said. “There’s an actual story behind all of my songs and why I wrote the songs and I wanted to show that.”
