My brother made a mix disc of his favorite Janet slow songs to sleep to every night. It's very relaxing.

My all-time favorite Janet ballad and possibly her greatest recording is "One More Chance".

For some jazz interpretations of Janet's tracks, try:

Kirk Whalum - That's The Way Love Goes
Stanley Clarke - Funny How Time Flies
Pharez Whitted - Anytime, Anyplace
Boney James - I Get Lonely
Ramsey Lewis - Come Back To Me
Arturo Sandoval - Come Back To Me
Paul Taylor - Velvet Rope
Nester Torres - Doesn't Really Matter

Also, there's a "Smooth Sax Tribute to Janet" available on CD...

10 songs

Produced by Walter Chancellor Jr. (also does Saxophones, some keys and drum programming)

Todd Burrell on Keys
Erick Anderson -Keys and Drum Programming
George Scott on Guitars

Songs are:
When I Think of You
I Get Lonely
Got Til It's Gone
Black Cat
Again
Nasty
Lets Wait A While
All For You
Escapade
That's The Way Love Goes

I've heard a really nice jazz remake of "Come Back To Me" but I couldn't say whose verison it was. I'm sure those tracks probably sound really good redone instrutmentally.

JANFAN4L said:

really sounds intresting...I am going to have to be nosey...

One More Chance and Anything.

Love your devilish new avatar GrayKing.

Thank JanFan4Life



Stanley Clarke "Funny How Time Flies...is GOOD!

Got it on Napster..damn I love Napster

"lonely"


all the rest suck.....

Anytime, anyplace

Ropeburn

...They just scream "HOT SWEATY LOVEMAKING!"

Other than Prince I think Janet makes the best slow jams. Lyrically she's reached a point where not much is left to the imagination but the music is so good I can't resist. Moist is one of those irritating words (like nougat) Just makes me cringe. So when I saw Moist on DJ I was fearful but I really like the arrangement of the song and that one line 'sucking on my mmm with ice in your mouth' gets me every time!

I have to keep updating my Janet slow jams disc because she keeps adding new ones but my all time favorites are:
Twentyfour Play
Lonely
Anytime, Anyplace
Funny How Time Flies
70s Love Groove
Anything
Making Love in the Rain
Love Scene (ooh Baby)
When We Ooo (I guess this is midtempo but I throw it on anyway)

If I'm driving at night and these songs come on, look out!

Anytime Anyplace (R. Kelly mix) Most people don't like this remix for some reason.

One More Chance -- I like this much better than the original by The Jacksons.

I never really considered "Making Love In The Rain" a Janet song since Lisa Keith sings the lead vocal. It's similar to Madonna and "Sidewalk Talk".

Are there any ballads that you didn't include? lol.

sextonseven said:

Well, there's also the French version of "Again."

sextonseven said:

because it makes it sound like every other R. Kelly ballad (and every other r&b slow jam of 1994, for that matter).

OOH!

There's a really good rendition of Janet's "Anything" by Will Downing on his Emotions CD. Check it out.

GrayKing said:

I stopped listening to R&B for the most part around 1990 so that must be why I don't hear the assembly-line production that you say it is.

sextonseven said:

damn u need a big major upate on r&b

JANFAN4L said:

Love Will Downing, but i haven't gotten that one as yet.

I still follow a few artists like Alicia Keys, Maxwell, Janet and TTD, but whenever I turn on BET these days none of what I see/hear really interests me. I also really like the Van Hunt album.

well 4 starters get hooked on van hunt the guy is good
