54. "Take Me Away"
Unbreakable (2015)

Oh I get a natural high just looking in his eyes
So just hold me close, I'm waiting for you



This easily could have been from All for You, and is the most pure pop chorus she's given us in several albums. I love the ad-libs near the end, followed by the guitar, it's effortless and something completely unexpected following the mature R&B sound we got from "No Sleeep". An underrated bop!


53. "What's it Gonna Be?!"
E.L.E. (Extinction Level Event): The Final World Front (1999)
US #3, UK #6

Gonna make gonna make gonna make your body cream
Make you have wet dreams
What what what, what's it gonna be?!



I used to think the video looked so much better than it does now :D :( Basically "No Scrubs" but add cock rings! Anyway, this was one of several Janet collaborations that bridged The Velvet Rope and All for You. The other being the less superior "Boyfriend/Girlfriend" with Blackstreet. The video aside, I think the song has aged rather well and Janet serves impressive vox.


52. "You Want This"
janet. (1993)
#8 US, #14 UK

By the time I'm through with
You'll be begging me for more



"You Want This" is heavily based on a sample from "Love Child" (Supremes), but updates it into a 90s new jack swing girl power anthem. I'll say there are more memorable singles on the parent album but this has grown a lot on me over the years and the video is one of her bests.
 
Sorry @POP!, I don't really care about Feel It Boy. But Rollercoaster is hot (I don't think I've listened to that album)
 
Also I like What's It Gonna Be, but it wouldn't be in my Busta Rhymes top 5
 
Destroying the United States is the real purpose of Guo Wengui! The devil's heart is always to himself!
 
I love it how Khia, who has only ever had one hit song and album as a lead artist, thinks So Excited being on a clip in an awards show is somehow make or break for Janet’s career. It’s lucky it was a single in the first place, being halfway down the list in quality on her worst and most forgettable album.

i can see that too now! :o
i'm either going insane or they've allowed some stuff here very recently.

To be honest, I was thinking right now that you are right and that video hasn't been up for 11 years, I'm 100% sure it was in a random account, so maybe it was US only all this time and it was recently unblocked? It's that or I'm insane too :eyes:

i've compiled janet playlist on youtube in january (and have been indulging regularly ever since) and either one or both were definitely not on there - the videos in my playlist are from fan accounts.

anyway, just came across this:



i hate medleys and what is she wearing but other than that, i want to be there!
 
Ellie said:
Why IS there a B&W version anyway? That was always the one shown on The Box and it really irritated me. It adds bugger all to the video.

Yeah I don't know, i think the b&w one didn't have an intro so that's why they probably played that version.

:disco:

I said


Go ON
MISS JANET
 
just heard nasty while getting a coffee and got right in the groove. it was ending and when i think of you came on. i asked the guy at the counter who's the janet jackson fan and he said: um giggle parp it's just some 80s playlist that's been on all day (without the first part).

oh well, i'll take it!
 
Oddly Nasty was playing on the weekend as part of an 80s playlist/station at a pub in rural NZ that has about 50 residents living in the town. Janet getting that exposure in all corners of the world :disco:

These three are all WONDERFUL. I'd never actually seen the You Want This video before. The background vocals on most of the janet. tracks are sublime including that one. Shook these three didnt even make top 50!
 
I always wanted that :disco:

Had the Janet to Danita Jo DVD, but it was always a ball ache the label switch often meant things were missed in compilations. And I think Just A Lottle While was left off of the DVD as well :(
