This is the R. Kelly remix. The original version that was on Janet’s 1993 album “janet.” sounds more like the version that was sampled on Kendrick’s song. Not sure if you’re aware but this song, “That’s The Way Love Goes”, “If”, and “Again” are all from the same album. It’s notable for being the first time Janet was so incredibly open about her sexuality.
GOOD ear Jay! If this were the original version - you would have caught it immediately! LoL Kendrick named that Poetic Justice after the Janet/Tupac movie. I'd say now you're ready for "I Get Lonely" (GREAT R&B Groove! You'll love it!)
She doesn't say "Ms. Jackson if ya nasty" for nothing. Lol If you haven't, you gotta check out "Would You Mind". That is definitely one of her naughtiest LPs.
Yessir! Janet was in her bag during this era. This version is the R Kelly Remix which sounds good BUT the album version really hits. When this album came out, people went crazy…Janet went from the tomboyish/military look into a total sex symbol.
@@DaymoJH WOOOOW! That's a LOADED comment. But I respect your bold opinion! 👀 The original is one of the best mixed songs (from an audio engineer's perspective) buuuut GO AWWFF CrazySexyCool LoLOL 💨
It had TWO versions. This and the remix by R Kelly. You Want This also had 2 versions. Then I Get Lonely and Together Again. That lets you see just how big she was to have singles that included remix videos
Love Janet and she always has something up her sleeves. Love this song to death and so will you. Man, you are cracking me up, everyone felt that way about her. I love her natural braided her, it makes it more soulful and beautiful. Thanks for checking her out.
It had to be 20 years ago and I was home with my girlfriend, watching a movie. Back then they used to have little quiz's during the commercial breaks. This particular time they showed a woman from the waist down, dancing. It was a if you can guess who this is type thing. I glanced up for a second and stupidly said out loud, "Oh , that's Janet Jackson." My Woman looked at me like it better not be. Surely enough after the commercial break they announced, "if you guessed Janet Jackson, you are correct." So then the battle began. ugh!
Ahhhhhhh, JJ is the MAGIK of the time......I can remember when this album came out and these songs added to my sexual healing at the time.....MUSIK MAGIK
Ha ha, I agree.Would you mind will blow J’s socks off. He needs to seethe Live in Hawaii version, i don’t think he will be able to recover after that 😂😂😂
The thing is, the video on tv back in the day was different from this one and so was the song. I’ve never heard this version until finding it on RU-vid lol I don’t know why they uploaded this version?!
Yo, Jay. I think you should go check out the studio version of this song and see which one you prefer. I like them both but I vibe more with the studio version, as it’s more stripped down and intimate for the material and mood. Just my opinion. Always enjoy your reactions, homie.
Glad you're on the mend and welcome back! LOL...your reaction about the title of this song, brilliant. You should listen to the original album cut of this! The groove here is smooth, but something about the starkness of the album version...softer and sexier. A not-so-guilty pleasure, this one.
Hey JayveeTV, I have a song recommendation for you. It’s called Pompeii and it’s by a band named Bastille, I don’t think you’ve reacted to it before so hope you do. Another song recommendation I have for you in My Universe by Coldplay and BTS I also think you’ll like that one, hope you listen to them!
Every woman star of the 80's/90's had the same trajectory - Early music you might say more innocent, the breakout in the sexy and then further evolution. All the greats: Janet, Madonna, Mariah, Whitney (she was never super sexy, but evolved into a WOMAN). Mariah married to Tommy Mottola her first 4-5 albums those fun innocent bangers I freaking LOVE then BAM Honey album and Puffy and Sexy Mariah. ***REVIEW MARIAH CAREY HONEY AND SEE*** Janet was no different. This is the sexy Janet phase and we all LIVED for it. You've seen Madonna's break out era with Vogue and then Erotica then evolved into the dance music and beyond. Its amazing. I love these women. Hell Miley Cyrus did the exact same as well.
GREAT choice! Both versions is good it depends on your mood. Now you can listen to the original version but in my opinion this one was better. But I do love the original one also. But again, it depends on your mood. The original version is more slower.
My mom was strict about music I could listen to, but I got this album when I was 12 anyway and I’m sure she didn’t realize the songs on it were so sexual 🤣 of course, most of it didn’t make sense to me yet either!
One of m fav songs off the self-entitled album JANET (1993) I bought it when it came out. Played the album continuously. This version is more upbeat than the album version which is more sensual than even this.
I didn't realize until the comments R.Kelly remixed this. Now I hear is signature sound. He literally was fuelling the R&B industry for a period of time where there was no song that he didn't write, produce or feature that was on the radio. From Celine and Whitney, to B2K and Marques Houston. It's sad. He should be close to a billionaire. I'm sorry for what happened to him and how he continued the cycle with others. It's all around bad and so disturbing.
I don't know why I don't like this song. Come Back To Me, Lonely (from Rhythm Nation lp), Someday Is Tonight, Again, Funny How Time Flies, Making Love In The Rain - Classic and timeless Janet DamitaJo balladss! Not a ballad but Velvet Rope is pretty bad ass! Check it out.
I like the other version and the video for the original version is a bit different in that the other people aren’t in it. This is the R Kelly production but I love the other one better. Not sure why no one has uploaded that since that’s the version that played on tv back then
Please react to "LET'S WAIT AWHILE". Like the others have said, the original version that Kendrik Lamar sampled so much better than the R. Kelly remix. Not sure why that's no longer on youtube.
Should have done the original. That’s the problem with blind reactions- you have no idea. Oh well still great :) but man the original production so much betta.
He's looking through the peephole because she and he never really hooked up: getting together was just her fantasy. The peeping was just light flirting.
