great song it would be great if she re release rhythm nation 1814 and add the remixes and b sides. this song is great her and johnny gill who she was romantically linked were arguing about ideas of the song
"Work" should've been a B-side, it is way better than this song. Been hearing this song for yeeeaarrs but it's really long and repetetive. Love you Janet!
@transformerschickk13 it sounds like she said i'm in here eating pretzels if she actually said that it would be funny as hell me and my co worker joke about the pretzels joke
OMG!!! I was thinking the same exact thing I remember them playing this on the radio and intoducing it, man how excited I was to hear this!!! Wow amazing the little things that impact our lives in positive ways cuz this is a good memory for me. CHI-TOWN BABY!!!!
I love the way she breaks down the basis of racial inequality by using a metaphor that society is in a "skin game" in this song, it's awesome!!!! Janet has this way of making something that horrible and mold it into a positive message with (to my opinion) mind-blowing harmonies, a groovy beat, and of course, the Rhythm Nation behind it. Way to show unity and positivity, Janet, thanks!! :) There's hope, y'all. Don't give up.
never really got the meaning behind this song and ive been listening to it for many years.......i kept thinking it was something sexual lol....and u r right janet is very good at using a metaphor and putting into a positive song
I didn't like it at first either. When I actually wasn't skimming through the song, and just heard the beat and the words, it was an instant hit for me
Janet got the dopest b-sides.

This beat is crazy. Luv the James Brown sample. I want Janet to stop selling sex and get back to the hard beats. This is the Janet I love.
