  • still reminds me of heather graham dancing in the car in the film license to drive

  • It's not that she was trying to sound like Janet it's just Shep Pettibone was mixing for just about everybody in the 80's and early 90's and he did indeed have a signature sound and you could tell one of his remixes right off. Great Song By Nia Thanks For Posting

  • @SuperJeff1999 I totally agree with you SuperJeff,

  • OMG......this reminds me when i used to sneak out at night to go to Backstreet.......downtown Fort Lauderdale.........i got caught in the end, but it was worth it.............

  • @lovemealways7 Sounds like somebody was having fun back in the day!!!!!

  • I was on my way to the nineth grade, when this song came out.

  • x m used to have a dance chanell and after the merger they got rid of it but brought it back after complaints and now they got rid of it again seems all they are interested in is clasic rock plenty of chanells for that I always loved this remix

  • PB; 1stly thanx 4 posting this D'Lish Xtension of 'Trouble'! BUT I don't think it's fair 2 say that Nia ws copying Janet.Both songs were remixed by 80's MegaProducer Shep Pettibone.The samples used N the remixes come from a variety of sources & can B heard N many of his other remixes as well! True, Janet's 'Pleasure Princible' taken off of her "Control'"LP predates Nia's 'Trouble' BUT the LP version of 'PP' sounds nothing like the more popular Shep ReMix used N the video 4 that song!

  • oh i forgot to add that I bought this on this on the 12" remix vinyl back in the day and it is one of my favorites to this day and I still have it...

  • This was a floorfiller back in the day...I don't care who you were but you could not help but find yourself wanting to get and make your way to the dance floor or clear a path if you had to.

  • ahhhhh dis is siiiiiic.....!!!! man i remember dis jam but neva heard this mixed version....

  • "The Pleasure Principle",

  • @tmjw69  "The mirrored Imitation Pleasure Principle"

  • @PAYBACKiszaB2 dude you got 2 tell me where you found this version..this is siiiic!!

  • @djmajiktuch82 they released 2 parts to CONTROL the remixes and this was on one of them. there is a rare LONG extended version of What Have You Done for Me Lately on one of there where instead of the snare drum rolling at the start, you hear a bass kick beat starting the song!!!!! I will have to locate that long version. its not the remix but actual longer version.

  • @PAYBACKiszaB2 oh yeah, But at that time (1986 to 1989) everyone wanted to have Janet's sound and every record label was puttin ther own "Janet" out.

  • @tmjw69 well you know what really makes me mad now days? I have SIRIUS radio in my car and I have been listening to the 80s and 90s channel for a few months and they are Not playing enough Janet or Michael I keep hearing too much Rock from that era, they need to play more JANET!!!! especially from the 80s and 90s, I heard Come Back to Me, but i am damn still waiting to hear them play MISS U MUCH, ESCAPADE, BLACK CAT and etc!!!!!!

  • @PAYBACKiszaB2 So Tru! I have SIRIUS where I work and she barely played. We used to play the dance station alot and I heard Feedback once (original version not even one of 50 dance version's). I think it's so sad that they show her no love, It's one of the reason's why people have forgotten about her.

  • @tmjw69 I was so angry about them passing over Janet...on the 80s channel, I mean I have heard every song the Bangels have made on there as well as many of them other HEAD BANGER HAIR bands from the 80s but they need to get to the DANCE Part of the 80s!!!! I did hear "GOT TIL ITS GONE" this morning on SIRIUS but on the urban station of course!!! I want more Janet otherwise I am not signing up for any further services!!! also, they need to play that amazing JANET album on the 90s channel!!

  • @tmjw69 didn't pleasure principle and this jam come out bout da same time?

  • @djmajiktuch82 Hey! If I remember this correctly "Troble" was released late spring early summer of '88, just about a year after "The Pleasure Principle". Shep Pettibone did both of these remixes and I notice with alot of the remixes he did for Janet (espescially off of Rhythm Nation) sometime later he would produce someone else and use alot of the same sample's or element's from previous Janet remixes. If you ever heard the house mix for "Miss you Much" you will here "Vogue" from Madonna.

  • @tmjw69 what part of Vogue (although i didn't really care for that track.......)

  • @PAYBACKiszaB2 there isn't a certain part, if you listen to Vogue and the house mix of miss you much the music and some of the elements used in the mix are very similiar to what was used for the original version of vogue.

  • @Therealanimale and besides that Nia was mixed with nearly 4 different races, I know because I had a full interview she did in a mag and she talked about all her backgrounds she had, I mean she is very pretty for her ethnics she has mixed in her, but Janet is a very extremely beautiful black GODDESS.............nuff said!

  • LOVE IT!!!!

  • I've always kept a copy of this whenever I was doing a janet mix

  • OMG this brings back memories of high school/college. I just turned 40.

  • @micmac99 with all the mess this world is in now, don't you sometimes just wish you could go back to the good ole times we had back then????

  • i cant stop listen to this im 25 and im one of her biggest fans...you nothing but trouble trouble trouble..you just waste of my time..ay.. ay ay ay

  • isn´t there an original video for this song

  • I think I only saw the short version one for the short single version of this song

  • This song was the shit when it came out in 88.

  • I remember first hearing the radio edit when i was at work at a college cataloging and I was like wow that is Nice and did not know it was Nia at first but I really liked it............

  • This song is great and it broke in the beginning right on TIME.

  • I was just testing your patience...JUST KIDDING!LOL!!!!! I think you're so cool. Take care.

  • Oh you don't bug me at all, no worries, I will try to do that, thanks so much.

  • Sweet Nia has been a star on the morning CBS soap opera the Young and The Restless for over a year now. It airs at 1200 Eastern time on CBS. she just turned 48 today and she is still beautiful.

  • There is no way, Nia is 48................OMG. I did not know that, she still fine from what I saw in the 90s.....

  • I jalopize! I jalopize! Actually Nia only turned 47 this year. I remember her when she used to do all of that funky dancing on Arsenio Halls party machine after hours dance show back in the early 90's. I wanted to hit that nappy dugout in the worst way!

  • I'm embarrassed to ask this, but isn't Y&R actually on @ 12:30 E/P, 11:30 C/M? At least if your local cbs affiliate has a noon news show each weekday.

  • ???

  • It's when the show is on. NM.

  • This was one of my FAVORITE REMIXES of ALL TIME!!!!!! I used to have this one, and it remains a CLASSIC!!!!!! LOL!!!!! It may sound like a "Pleasure Principle" remix...but that was the "typical 80s" remix sound at the time!!!! But, it was DA BOMB!!!!! ANd, ALWAYS will be!!!!!

  • It sounds like Pleasure b/c the mix is basically based on that, but you're right who cares? This is nearly my favorite song from 88, but there were so many it's hard to say. Thanks for posting payback, I've been waiting for someone to up it for years. The dub is actually better but this is Nia at her best. Since it hasn't been mentioned, it's too bad her stint on Top of the Pops didn't last, it would've been nice to see her host and occasionally perform a bit longer than she ever did.

  • Hello...I just wanted to ask you if there's anyway of seeing Nia on the Top of the Pops when she hosted/performed on it. If you have any clips I would love to see them. Thanks!

  • I wish I could help, but I don't even know if they exist on any torrent sites. They may only be on old videotape somewhere in the cbs vault.

  • I have her performance of this and of HIGHTIME from another show but not Top of the Pops I would like to see that one too!!!!

  • OMG!!!!! Can you post those performances out here? I would love to see them...I'm sure many, many others would love to see them, too! Thanks!

  • She was the HOST on the short=lived American version of TOTP. I'm not aware that she ever performed any of her own stuff on that show.

  • Yeah...I know that because I used to watch it every week, and yes...she did perform "Trouble" for the first time EVER on TOTP when she was the host of that show. LOL! I love her performance on that show. What about Club MTV? She perfromed "Trouble" and a couple of other tunes on that show, too. Do you have any of those? LOL! Can you post any of them, if you do? Thanks!

  • Interesting to know. I've repeatedly answered you all that I don't have anything.

  • Sorry to "bug" you. lol!!!! But, keep posting more stuff!LOL!Stay cool!

  • I wonder what ever happpen with her?

  • Well the last time I saw her in the last of the 90s, she was on that show called Walker Texas Ranger and she was helping to kick some but in the South. but now i am not sure what she is doing? i am sure she is keeping busy as she was always doing something. Nia was a go getter and not a person to just sit around waiting for something.

  • well yes! it's so janet..lol well janet was on the show. so you know the Reflections of janet are there. but it was that 90's sound. but I love this song.Thanks for posting.
