in my hometown, the cover of janet jackson's debut album was painted as a mural on a department store building, it stood standing for over 25 years...I would drive down the street where the mural was located thousands of times so I could look at her beautiful face....lolllll.....Janet has had an amazing career, and she kept her personal life private from the press.....Michael could have done the same thing if he really wanted to......
I love this song it reminds me of my youth. Im about 6 months older than Janet and I got concert tickets to see her again for a 3rd time in San Francisco in April at the Bill Graham Civic Center. ( I wonder why such a small venue?) Oh well Janet has brought such joy to my life by listening to her music! VIVA Janet!
@musicluvr708 The version they put on the cassette tape (album) was SO irritating! It was mostly music. I hated that version. SO glad when I found the LP with THIS version on it.
@musicluvr708 I agree! I love this version, which is on the vinyl album I have, then I bought the cd years later to find an inferior remix of this song, the rest of the album remained the same thankfully!!
Its sounds like Don't stop til you get enough. that was the first thing was was in my mind. This is so awesome.
I CANT BELIVE THAT MICHAEL JACKSON DIED. I SO LOVE HIM. IM NOT GAY AND I DONT CARE IF PEOPLE CALL ME GAY. he was an awesome person and He is going to be with us. In our heart. We are not alone!!
Janet sang her azz off on this whole album. I love this song to this day. I wish I had the original release and not the later version they produce when she exploded all over the Planet of Janet. LOL
Haha, just realised this song reminds me of Dont Stop 'Til You Get Enough and tried to find in on youtube to look if anyone else had the same association.
I love all the Jackson kids...but this song does sound like a duplicate of Michael's song Don't Stop Til You Get Enough...still no matter this is a great song
@2008topshelf Yes I have a great ear!! Check the background music not the vocal line...I have a damn good ear and I am VERY musical thank you very much!
Her debut album, Janet Jackson, produced by soul singers Angela Winbush, René Moore and Leon F. Sylvers III, was released in 1982, the entire production of which was overseen by her father Joseph.[3] It peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot R&B albums chart.[7]
@Fawcett75 Joe Jackson did not oversee the production, he was involved in negotiating the deal, but he was not involved in the song writing or production, other than saying, "that's good" after the recordings were completed...I know the producers, and know that for a fact...
for the first two albums he was forcing her and she had no creative control but she fired him in 1985 and started working on the classic Control Album
OH SHIT THIS IS THE ORIGINAL VERSION!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have the first album and I just always thought the song was todamn long but then I found out it was a extended mix. So can someone PLEASE email me this? I like this version way better than the album version
Her first two albums didn't dare too well because she wanted to do acting. 1986's ``Control'' would be her breakthrough album with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. 1982 was an age of adolescene for Janet. She played in ``Good Times'' from 1977-1979, `` A New Kind of Family'' 1979-1980 and ``Diff'rent Strokes'' from 1981-1982.
Heyyyy,someone didn't put the whole song up :(.I love the instrumental part. The's song's really 6:50.Kinda long but worth it^_^.

alibatley28 2 years ago
Did Janet Jackson get help from her father, Joe Jackson, or did she independently start her career?
alibatley28 2 years ago
for the first two albums he was forcing her and she had no creative control but she fired him in 1985 and started working on the classic Control Album
cecelover4ever 2 years ago 3
