I might be the only person who actually prefers Janet Jackson to her more famous brother, Michael. But I can live with that.
In 1997, I bought her new album, ‘The Velvet Rope’. I couldn’t stop playing it, and one track in particular. It also made me realise how useful it was to have a CD player instead of a record player, as I could just key in the track number. I still love that album now, especially this song.
And she was quite gorgeous, which doesn’t hurt.
The lyrics are on the video.
She is actually singing here tonight, Too crazy for us, but fun coincidence.

You are not the only person. I’m a Michael fan, too, but give me Janet’s over Michael’s music, any time!

I like some of Michael’s songs, but I prefer Janet too. Besides her great music, she’s easy on the eyes.

I agree, she was gorgeous as well as very talented. I can’t say I was a great fan of her brother, despite his talent. I thought he was a rather sad figure.

I didn’t care for him that much, and his obsession with altering his appearance creeped me out.

Once he started mutilating his face, I found him a very damaged individual.

Can’t say I recognised this song, Pete, and I can take or leave it, to be honest: it’s not a style that really ‘grabs’ me, but I don’t dislike it either. Michael was more popular in his time, and undoubtedly a trendsetter, before the rumours started; his music was of its time, but a few, like Thriller, really stand out. Cheers, Jon.

It’s an album track, Jon, so not so well known. It really got into my head at the time, but I understand if it is not for most people.
