  • This is my favorite part of that concert! I loved the whole thing but here she just brought back an era that was so cool. But innocent, too. Innocent yet cool.

  • OMG! I just got that Cd I luv it she sounds like a baby in luv. My fav is dont mess up this good thing! luv luv her live the best!

  • I'm glad she did bring the early stuff back. Those were the days.

  • Those were the days she didn't have much of a career. I'm glad your selfish ass enjoyed those days.

  • Look, man, I like the early stuff the best cuz it was funky. If you don't like it, that's your fucking problem, buddy.

  • MUCH LIES!

  • That's all you had to back at me with? MUCH LIES!

  • Oh, I could do a whole lot worse, but I don't wanna crush your spirit.

  • Now look here, maricón!!! I didn't come here to watch this video to make enemies and provoke arguments. I just said that I like the early stuff and no, I'm sure I'm not the only one who bought those damn albums. But if you wanna pick on people for what they dig, then you picking the wrong fight, muchacho!!!

  • Whatever, man. Shut the fuck up!

  • I need to sing Janet perform these songs live! LAWD. LOL. I may be young but I'm not foolish, I can tell real love from a game. I'm not gonna let u use me.

  • OH MY GOD!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS! I should be at a barbeque right now. I am sitting here having a party. Never knew Janet did these live. I LOVE HER!!!! YES! Sounds Great...

  • i believe this concert was the first time she may have performed material from her first two albums. I agree with u, im jamming in my seat! she's a great performer!

  • She sounded great on these songs... Most artist dont sound good live... The concert was great and different from her shows

  • Comment removed

  • Janet sounds good, great vocals! A lot of people don't sound the same in person but she does!

  • she sounded amazing here. she sung it better than back in 82-84.

  • She is rockin' the mohawk!

  • this songs beat kind of sounds like michael's baby be mine...both are great songs!!! r.i.p michael </3

  • Man, being born in 87 I didn't even know what to do when this part came on. I had fun but I didn't know she had albums before Control. But I never was bored, and always surpised by her son line up.

  • also, she's already been where they are in her career. she feels like she can do whatever she wants, basically on cruise control now, and hell she even says that. and to her fans - true fans - that's alright by them and me :-)

  • she said awhile ago that she always wanted to perform these old songs. i'm glad i got to see her do it.

  • She sounds GREAT live!

  • wow she said she would sing whatever you wanted. and she pulled it off. jj is true to her fans wishes. that's why i love her.

  • i kno rite she left a number to call and she sang all the 37 hits that needed to be herd. PLLUSSS she sang it live i can hear her rely singing but these other fuckers rather think not cuz madonna alwayz sings live but madonna used to be Popular in the 80's and JANET took over and gave ppl wut they wanted to hear. JANET IS THE QUEEN OF DANCE, AND DEFENTLIY THE QUEEN OF POP

  • AMEN I wish other artist would follow her lead and do the same

  • whoever filmed this did a outstanding job the performance of her is good and the quality is good! great job you should film ore of janets tours some other ppl that filmed them are muffled and u can barely here it but this is a good work of art i like alot

  • im tellin thses haters janet jackson will never get old her music is so grest its just unexplainable i love janet forever i own ALL of her cd's 14 y.o fan

  • Im about to buy Young Love now.. yea buy not download,,, This is a great song

  • She sounds great... Ive always thought Janet had/has a great voice... She sounds great on record and live... Unlike some females who only soung good on record... Honestly Janet hasnt made a bad album yet... Some have been better, but they've all been good

  • Yeah, she sounds great. But, she sounds the same as she did when she originally recorded these songs. Her voice was good then and it is still good today. I hope that Janet gets back with Tina Landon, so we can have the full packaged Janet. I've been a huge fan of Janet's since the beginning of time and I can't wait for the new album. I'll buy 3 copies as usual. :)

  • I love Janet. I hope she gets back with Jam & Lewis who has the magic for her and I want her to write on her new album and contiues to work with Ne-Yo who wrote Rock Wit you.

  • her voice sounds absolutely beautiful! she sang the hell out of these songs!

  • No one else seems to have commented on how GOOOOD her voice is...she is not straining or struggling to hit the notes -- it's fluid and strong...I think she's a better singer now than she was then...good job, Janet.

  • yes she is amazing.

  • This part of the show was INCREDIBLE! I hope this concert is released as a DVD cause i would play this part (and FEEDBACK - cause she freakin' KILT that too!) to death!!!!!! truly the perfect entertainment... ain't no one like her.

  • I was 5 years old when she sang Young Love for the first time in 1982. hese kids weren't even born when this song came out. I maybe was 5, but at least I was around the time before Control blew up.

  • Vocals ALL Live. Not to say, she sung them ALL with a Headset Mic. She is AMAZING.

  • Janet is back in the studio with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis working on Her new CD due for release later this spring (2009) AND a new re-named tour will follow

  • Comment removed

  • Amen!! That's gonna be hot!! Thanks for the info. I will make sure I get my copies.

  • Yeah, she is in the works of recording a new album with Jam & Lewis. I hope she does another song with Darkchild. Feedback was my jam. I don't care what people say, but I love all of Janet's cds. :)

  • Say You do!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • damn, this was a badass concert! I missed it when it went to Los Angeles, it was kinda expensive, it was like $250 for the good seats!....hopefully she will tour again!!!!!

  • i love this song

  • I used to LOVE this song when I was 3 years old! :)

  • she was hittin all those old notes... she sounded great... Queen

  • omg i love these songs.

  • Weerrrrrk JJ....she's touring Japan guys! February 2009

  • where did you here this at???

  • This is why this is the best concert, because of these songs!!

  • Yes!!!! Back in the day when she used to rock the hoop earring with the key in it!! Vintage Janet!!

  • This song is older than the earring with the key by a little bit :)

  • You Know,this song rocks. I sorry that you not real fan...

  • THE GREATEST!!

  • janet iz da best

  • Janet is rockin' that mohawk! Awesome!

  • i loved it when she said, "i was 15 OMG"! lol. she's so cute. did she shave her sides to wear that mohawk or did she slick it sideways.

  • she slicked it sideways

  • Hell yeah ; I truly love ittt much more please...

  • This was the best part of the show ... get it Janet!

  • Love these songs!!

  • ".....loveeee and my best friendddddddd!!"

  • For the Mariah fan...spamming Janet videos are old but you continue to do it. And if you knew anything you would know Janet and Mariah are friends and Mariah would probably be disgusted and annoyed with your overzealous ways.

  • Yeah,I agree famousfree. I like both artist and it's so old seeing people fight over who is the best. I am glad you didn't go to their level I just think that they sit back and shake their heads. At least I hope they do.

  • LOVES IT!!!!!!

  • this also was ONE OF THE MOST BEST SEGMENTS OF THE SHOW here in Vancouver!! i was going crazy to old skool janet...dang, it was amazing!! LOVE U janet....!

  • OMG..y'all don't understand..a lot of you were not even born when Janet did these songs..I was a lil kid myself and couldn't wait to see her on "American Bandstand" and this chick is still doing the damn thang. BOW DOWN PLEASE!!

  • I love here energy and moves on this medley... I like when she performs solo... No dancers she sounds great too

  • i agree, before there were dancers there was janet. lol. and she's making them look bad, but that's janet for you.

  • She soundsgood live. Very pure

  • its really good to hear her sing life luv u gurl

  • Do you really consider an artist whose been around for 23 years making records... Reaching number 2 and 1 on the charts a flop... Yea she doesnt sell like she use too, but what artist stays on top forever? Janet should be proud and happy she still has the juice and fan base she has... A lot of artist doesnt have the longivity she has... So I wouldnt consider any her work a FLOP

  • Thank you!!! Janet has 6 # 1 albums and 2 # 2 albums, so I don't call her a flop. Her first singles got air play on R&B radio, but A&M tried to market her as a Pop act, and she didn't have say of what she wanted to record until she hooked up with Jam and Lewis and began co-writing and producing her material.

  • Janet will always be a legend and his career is not over!! She has a loyal fan base who support her and if u don't like her don't watch her videos and start drama with her fans.

  • Musicencylopedia, I totally agree with you... After 25 years we are still talking about her and watching her.... Not many females have done what she has done

  • Thank you. She along with Tina Turner are still doing their thang and doing it well. Janet is in a class by herself and I never get tired of listening to her.

  • Miss Janet has always gave her fans a fab show. Her first two albums didn't do well because A&M tried to market her as an Pop act, and the songs; especially from her second album were too bubble gum for her. When she started working with Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, she began to develop as an artist and that's why she's an Icon. Plus this is her first tour in 7 years (thanks to Virgin not wanting to put up funds for 20 Y.O.) so she had to give them something special.

  • Holy shit! I would have gone to see this concert just for that medley! The only song that would have made it the bomb was if she would have sang "come give your love to me" which is my all time favorite Janet jam.

  • Those songs by janet are very old school. They came out before the control album was even created. They are from her 1982 and 1984 albums. I thought they were really great songs, but they just couldn't over shadow the legacy of the jackson five and the thriller album. All that shit changed though, when the CONTROL album came out in 1986, all hell broke loose, LOL. The queen of pop, had arrived ya'll. LOL.

  • get it janet!!!

  • I love when she says come on get up... She sounds great... I love when she performs solo no dancers... True entertainer

  • I can't believe this woman, she is full of surprises. The best performer ever. ICON!!!

  • Anyone know where I can find these songs, and the names of them??? I'm a TRUE die hard fan, but come on..... I WAS ONLY A YEAR OLD! I didn't hear Janet until Control came out. I wish she woulda done a snippet of Dreamstreet though. Having those few songs in there, was like the icing on the cake. I thought the show was AMAZING!!! (especially when she looked over and pointed to me!)

  • "Young Love" from her very first album-"Janet Jackson"

    "Say You Do"-from the same album

    "Don't Stand Another Chance"-from "Dream Street"

  • her voice is very good !!! very good surprise !!

  • i went to her show i thought she sounded amazing but it was not a surprise. why is it a surprise that her voice was good?

  • BECAUSE her last show was not very good ( good morning america) and here she sing old song with high voice !! her voice is exelent ! it s a true live??? I hope!!

    this show is great but i think the public sleep a little bit lol jay is the best !! i wish she comes in europe

    sorry i don t speak very well english i am french but i love janet she is proud and strong !! she is the best !!

  • i totally disagree with u but whatever! I thought she sounded good on Good Morning America, but everyone is entitled to their opinion. Your english is good!

  • i have seen on internet that this show is in playback!! is that true?? i don t believe that bacause there is an echo in her voice !! love jay

  • No, she's singing along with a background track... She's singing the lead vocals... You can hear its live..

  • her voice is really better than others show in the past i love it!!!

  • janets voice is at its best go girl

  • no, it's live. even rolling stone magazine confirmed that she was not lip syncing.

  • yes ! yes! yes! i knew that !! ahahaha janet is my girl! i love this show is very diferent then others and janet has a true qualitie she is human and happy to be with her public

  • WHen she performed on GMA she was sick! cause her voice was not very strong on their!

    She is singing live many people went to the show and its live! You can hear the track to but she is singing lead! You can youtube these song on youtube!

  • all that i see now is fire !!! good job janet!

  • Ya'll Janet singing on these songs.

  • get it janet!!!! this is my favorite part of the show

  • oooh myy gosh..i realy was a treu fan of janet back then..even when i was 17 yrs old i know all of the songs oooo love it i hope she will come to europe( the netherlands)..i really do.

  • Young Love and Say You Do... were great songs should have been hits, but the world was so into MJ... but you have to admit the songs still sound good and makes u want to dance

  • Young Love came out in 1982 when I was one years old. I love your music and all that you do and represent. I think my mom was shocked that I knew all the words, whne you said what year it came out. I saw the show in San Diego and I am trying to get to Houston to catch it again.

  • yeah, I caught her show in Oakland, and it was really amazing that she did performed these pre-Control cuts. She also performed "Funny How Time Flies (When You're Having Fun)", a great Control track that was never released as a single in the US but still popular with her fans, so she really did cater the show for her fans which is really awesome.

  • "Don't stand another chance" is from DREAMSTREET, recorded in 1984, "Yong love" and "Say you do" is from Janet's first album simply titled "JANET JACKSON" recorded in 1982

  • This will probably be one of my favorite segments of the entire show!

  • she also should have thrown "dream street" in there.  that wouldv'e REALLY floored them!

  • GWONE DEN JANET GWONE!!!!

  • YEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH Young Love!

  • I may be young but im not foolish!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I watch this twice a day... What I love about it is that it's just here no dancers... Just her and her fans and it looks like she's having fun... And she's nailing all those high notes....

  • Janet is finally acknowledging her pre-Control material. She did an terrific job with this medley.

  • this is what did it 4 me at the show!

  • I can't stop watching this... I missed her here in LA so im goin to NY in OCT... She sounds so good... I love at 1:18 when she started walking backwards... I can't believe she's 42

  • THE BEST SHOW EVER!!!!!

  • OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE SOUNDS GREAT!!!!! I cant get over this! she's doing cuts from the first two records! go jan!!!!!!!!

  • I can not wait to see it.

  • OMG!!! I can't believe she's doing her pre control stuff!! I can't wait until she comes to DC!!!

  • I am so proud of her.. People said her career was over she was washed up... She came back and hit them with a hot concert I've heard nothing but great reviews... I love her so much a LEGEND and she sounds great too...

  • omg that was beautiful

  • i remember these songs.. wow.. thanks janet.. is she coming to birmingham al

  • OMG.....I swear y'all, i met Janet 2 years ago and mentioned that I was a fan from WAAAAYYYYYY back, and how cool it would be if on her next tour she did "Young Love" and "Say You Do"!!!!! I guess this is proof that she listens to her fans! Now I HAVE to go see her show. Great posting.

  • Oh my goodness! Why can't I stop looking at different clips of this concert. I am going to see her on Saturday in San Diego and I just can't help but to look at the clips. My friend went to the concert in Los Angeles and she said it was "PACKED OUT" she said non stop fun. She said she would pay double to see that concert one more time. I am so fired up. I have two days. How and I going to contain myself. I LOVE YOU JJJJJJJJJJJJJANET!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!! Thanks for the post.

  • I know Im seeing her in October and Im trying not to watch these clips too much cause I wanna experience it for myself. Its hard not to watch though.
