Well, orgers, it looks like there's one track that won't be here much longer and that's Let's Wait Awhile. It was pulled in the fifth round of DOAD Survivor.

11 tracks remain. The moment has come to put Janet's classics to the test and see which track will prevail to be crowned the DESIGN OF A DECADE SURVIVOR by the Org.

Pick the song you want voted off (Polls close at 9 pm EST / 6 pm PST the following day).

Wow, y'all really don't like her ballads. I think they're usually among her best.

Control.

Y'know in junior high I had a textbook that quoted a few pop lyrics, and "Control" was right along side "I Am A Rock" by Paul Simon.
eek Dead serious.

I vote for "Control".

I love Janet's ballads. She has a great voice on them. "Come Back To Me" is my favorite. Along with I Get Lonely, One More Chance, Truth, Let's Wait Awhile, Lonely and Someday Is Tonight.

Was that supposed to be a slight against "Control"?

Not at all! You don't see `80s songs quoted in Language Arts texts that often. But I still have to vote it off.

I feel you. I made a computer print-out of that song's lyrics and put it on the cover of my Mathematics binder in high school.

That's another one of those songs I play a lot before I sleep at night.

Oh ok. I've seen the "Rhythm Nation" video used in a sociology class in college.

That's exactly what I used to do when that song first came out. I'd just put my cd player on repeat and fade into dreamland with that song.

Control is probably the most important song in her career, it was her way of saying, "Im not Michael Jackson so fuck off.I am my own woman."

Well, yeah but at the time she recorded it she was MAD but FREEEEE. She wanted to rip the goose off of Joe Jackson and tell him not to fuck around with her. Her parents didn't take too kindly of Janet's new persona. She wasn't the baby girl anymore. She was the original independant woman! YOU HEAR THAT BEYONCE????
