    GO JANET, LOVE THE SONG AND LOVE THE VIDEO.. SHE IS SUCH A ICON AND SUCH A F*CKING LADY… LOVE YOU JANET

    Same ol same ol Janet. This video was extremely boring and looked kinds low budget. The setting reminds me so much of “Scream.” Janet, girl, you struggling to keep up with your background dancers aren’t you? I can’t believe how off/stiff her dance moves were. I will say that the song has a nice groove to it, but it sounds too much like the music she recorded in the 80′s. I know it’s 80′s influence, but I seriously feel this has been a single 20 years ago already. It’s good that she finally wasn’t having her tities hanging out and having those unnecessary sexual dance moves, but I’m just not feelin’ it. NEXT!

    CUZ JANET IS LATE!…..SHE GETS ON MY NERVE WITH THESE STUPID SONGS…. WHY DID SHE RELEASE THAT,,,UGH,,,WHATEVER JANET…..

  15. DLopez

    I totally disagree with some of the comments. This video is black and white, that is where the similarities of Scream end. Scream was an angry video, this is upbeat and fun. Even the outfits and hair/stylings are different. And this song doesn’t sound like any song she came out with in the 80s, or 90s. It has an old school groove, if anything, reminiscent of Janet’s 2001 song All For You, but still much different. This song isnt a come back song, this is for her Number Ones cd, and she has said it was a gift to her fans. She will have a whole new album out some time next year.

    I think she still looks great, sounds great, dances great. How many 43 year olds can get down like this?

    Goes to show how much of a slave these entertainers have to be once their souls are sold. Watching some of these old negroes hoppin’ around, trying to do choreography reminds me of Jordan with the Wizards lol. The Jacksons believe that Michael’s “death” (sacrifice) will generate sympathy for them, and thusly help them rejuvenate their dead careers. Very pathetic.

  17. Jeff

    Theres some Michael in here, aw

  18. JA

    oh Judah, u need to shut your trap sometimes.

  22. LULU

    I like the video. Yes I agree with an earlier poster who said she was struggling to keep up with the other dancers, which I noticed. Don’t think she needs to give it a rest though.

    —————————————————————————–

    Yeah (laughing so loudly until someone had to call me on it).

  24. Kyla

    Yeah it annoys me now that since Michael has died, his siblings are everywhere.
    Especially LaToya .. Janet doesn’t bother me as much ’cause she’s already “famous” on her own .. the others – no one pays attention to them.

  25. Some of yall need to stop hating! Janet is still doing the damn thing. She will shut down the AMA’s like she’s been doing for the last 25 years!

  26. mjackson

  34. Suga Mama

    WHY R PEOPLE HATING ON JANET…. She has always been on the scene i cant speak for the rest of her family… I think she looks great, like she said she isn’t doing this for us she is doing this cause she wants to. If you don’t like her don’t comment but give her the respect she deserves because when she gets on stage at a concert she commands the stage, and she will always be an icon… It’s because of Janet I dance…

  35. Hi

    Just saw Janet perform. It was good, I love that woman

  36. Tami

    Love this song and video. Great job Ms Jackson

  37. I noticed something

    This song reminds me of the song from the 80′s cannot remember the name “You said you wanna reach the skyu so get up…The feelings right and the music tight on the disco night…” I absolutely love Janet, the dancers are a little too fast for her especially when she moves her shoulders back and glides back. She looks somewhat out of place and too slow.

    I am a die hard fan of Janet and I love her. Some people say I favor her.*Blushing*. I will be buying her CD… Did somebody say Wizard of Oz! I busted out laughing!!!!

  38. Jj

    Janet is no more everywhere than she was before! if anything, she kept a rather low profile since MJ’s death. Remember just last year she released her album Discipline, and within a couple of months of Feedback being out, she had like 2-3-4 (?) more songs being pushed on radio, which put her on the promo circuit. plus the tour that started september that meant a lot of exposure. What xactely has she done in 09?

  39. Danger

    When other artist today can match Janet’s accomplishments and numbers then hey, but this lady is fire to this day. Janet is the reason why many of these female artist are where they are, her and her family paved the way for other black artist. I bet if she was humping around talking about materialistic items then everyone would thinks its fire, this is classic janet (timeless music)

  40. luvsong

    She’s no stiff , the video is fresh and janet looks better than ever.

  41. A&E girl

    @truthfullyspeaking, ok I usually don’t attack people on their opinions(because we all have one) but DAMN! Do you EVER have ANYTHING positive to say about anyone(Ciara, Bey, Janet,etc)? Excuse you, but being RUDE doesn’t equate the TRUTH. you must reeeeeally hate yourself!

    anyway,
    i love everything about this video. Janet’s a pop icon and she will remain one of the best female performers ever. she is gooooorgoeus! I hope she’s touring soon.

  42. mrs. sk8board p (ak & bk stan)

    love it, and love her.. she’s so beautiful..i just thought they choreo could’ve been hotter

  43. Heavy

    Janet needs a new choreographer. She has been with Gil for like four albums. She wasnt even with Tina Landon that long. She needs some new moves, Gil has done all he could do for her.

  44. anjelica

    Yall can kiss Janets pussy

  45. DJ Buttnasty 2010

    Hmmm…Some of the people who are hating actually have a point. Notice that many of them are saying that “the death of Michael will boost the careers of the Jacksons”…YOU F-ING RIGHT IT WILL AND YA’LL ARE SCARED!!!!!! AAAAHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Btw. I loved the video and can’t wait ’till the new album drops. See, I’m a realist, many of the MJ fans are now going to start coping a lot of Janet now. So I just want to say to all my fellow Janatics…Don’t retaliate. Let these fools say dumb sh*t. Don’t even acknowledge them. They’re only pissed because Janet hasn’t quit and many people are going to buy her aalbum next year to surpass the artists that they love. Go janet. THE BEST!!! *NEXT*

    Eww. Can we get any more vulgar?

  47. AllNightDont'Stop2010

    TruthfullySpeaking Judah & Phuckin Lames STUFP seriously!!!!! Janet shyts on half these gurls in the game right now cant none really compare to Miss Janet and no she not use MJ’s death to get her name back on the map. She had this shyt mapped out before MJ’s death so tired of people taking shyt and throwing it all over the place. Janet has been doing this shyt for a long ass time and ya’ll just mad cause she wont stop.Her performance on AMA;s just proved why she is the baddest ICON

  48. EnameL

    TIMELESS…. they will always have it!!! loved it!!!!!!!

    janet is baD!

  49. Tami

    I saw Janet’s performance and it was great.

  50. TopOfMyGame

    She rocks…and rocks it. Janet is a hottie with a fatty. When did 40 look this good? I’m impressed. My uncle (ten years older than me) always said Janet is his fav chick in da game. I see why…..

  51. SistaStrength

    I loved the video and the song. I read some of these comments. I think “TruthfullySpeaking” is a Beyonce fag hag…or some other hater. A lot of chicks of something to her. She’s sexy not slutty. Was the “titties” thing refering to the superbowl. Maybe this was posted by Justin TimberFake under a fake name. White boy trying to do soul always cracks a sista up….

  52. jessica

    Judah & Phuckin Lames you don’t know about real music, I rather listen to proper music than listening to crap about sex all the damn time!!! How old are you?? You really need to learn your music history, if it wasn’t for Janet, will there be- Beyonce, Rhianna, Britney, CiCi, Keri Hilson and all the other upcoming artist??? Go and sit down and learn something useful!!!! DJ Buttnasty 2010, you said it best, they’re mad because when the good singers like Mary, Janet, Whitney, and Toni come back, the artists that they see all the time will off the spotlight, they have real music!!!! Can’t wait until Janet new album comes out, the orginial Janet is back in full force!!!!

  53. Dhampir

    I think most of the people on this site are truly pathetic. Whether it’s Janet or any other celebrity people are quick to bash and talk all the trash they want yet the people they’re bashing are still making millions of dollars. Yes Janet is no Whitney Houston (old Whitney), however that’s not new move on. She’s certainly a better singer than Madonna or even Britney. Next wow you guys are trying to say this video is too much like Scream so you don’t like it? Interesting so Janet is copying herself so that makes her bad? And for those two idiots “Phucking Lames,” and “Judah,” you guys clearly don’t pay attention because one Janet has been around and in the media LONG before Michael died, and this album was slated to come out LONG before Michael died. His other siblings are a different story, but this isn’t about them it’s about Janet. And finally Janet is 43 years old so naturally she won’t be able to move as flexibly as teenagers and 20 year olds which is the age of most of her dancers. I just find it funny how people love to bash someone over the internet but yet they’re sitting at home struggling to pay their bills, and yet these celebrities who they say are has beens or need to give it up are fine.

  54. AWJ12687

    Janet better work it out the dancing was bit repetitive though. LMAO @ the Rihanna comparison Janet could out sing her anyday now please. Obviously we forget some of her earlier vocal performances. Anyway I love the feel of the track makes me feel good.

  55. sean2009

    DEAD@ THE HATERS BEING ONE PERSON. HA HA HA HA HA HA

    NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VIDEO. AND A DANCER ALREADY SAID B4 THE VIDEO CAME OUT IT WILL BE MORE GLAM SHOTS THAN DANCING.

    ITS ALREADY BEEN REVIEWS ON THE VIDEO BY CRITICS WHICH WERE AMAZING.

    BILLBOARD>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> YOUR OPINION.

  56. sean2009

    IM DONE.LOL NEXT TIME PEOPLE LOVE JANET IS WHEN SHE ENDS UP LIKE MJ. N THATS A SHAME SHE IS A LEGEND N AN ICON N SHE CANT GET ANY RESPECT.

  57. sean2009

    OH AND JANET IS NOT EVEN WHISPERING IN THIS SONG.

  58. Ra-Ra

    I like it! She’s so pretty!

  59. Ra-Ra

    I think the reason sometimes for the disparity in the comments is probably the age disparity of the commenters, maybe? I think younger people nowadays are used to seeing alot of sex, flash and redundance in videos. So if they don’t get that each time, they don’t find it interesting. While older people like myself (30 and up), can still remember when you didn’t have to be naked, dropping it like it’s hot, in order to have a successful career. One thing I always like about Janet: she mastered the art of being sexy without being slutty.

  60. Vinny West

    Why is everyone so negative??? Have you negative people ever stopped to think about how you make these artist feel with your negative comments…They are human too. DAMN, what ever happen to uplifting or constructive criticism….Janet, B, Ciara, Rihanna, Modonna, Mariah….Do your thang!!!! (JANET FANATIC)
