I've never been a big fan of JJ but my sis was playing this in the car the other day and i was struck by how Prince sounding this song is. The melody sounds like a sister of When You Were Mine and the whole song kinda has that feel to it. Anyone else noticed it?

oh yeah...this was the song that jermaine dupre must have listened to right before he declared Damita Jo her Dirty Mind album....


[cough cough] bullshit [cough cough]

he said what ? bitch, please. he's just happy for his girl, and all, but, bitch, please. this album in no way is similar 2 dirty mind

not similar similar, but similar in the way that it was supposed to be somewhat like janet's sexual epiphany much like dm was for prince but, of course, it was a pretty screwy statement. she'd already did the whole thing with the velvet rope, iirc.

you can't do a dirty mind twice.



...but i can edit at least once

gone ahead and preach that truth. which janet album had that's the way love goes, and that filthy assed if ? was that velvet rope ? that was a good example of reaching a sexual epiphany. if was funky, and when i found out what she was saying, it blew my mind. a jackson did this ?

Dallis austin wrote it. I remember seeing him interviewed back in the mid 90's and the dude looked just like Prince.
