If I had a gun to my head and had to pic one I'd go with Janet

Even though, I didn't love this album, her vocal ability is still superior
to J.No's.

Dag, they both had crap first singles too!
Jennifer had the song with the annoying ass party horn
and Janet had the bland, boring, 'ho hum', Call on Me

Still, I'd take 20 YO any day confused
If you will, so will I

Never heard Afterbirth. Don't want to. I never took JLO's singing career remotely seriously. I did, however, once take Janet seriously, so I'll have to go with 20 JOkes as the bigger turd in the bowl.
There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently

Honestly:
1. How many times have you heard the songs "Take Care," "With U" and "Do it 2 me"
2. Do you like "All For You?"
I'll leave it alone babe...just be me

I played the album the whole way through three times, which means I've heard said songs three times. As you can tell, they made no impact on me. lol )Then I listened to the only two that grabbed me - So Excited and Enjoy - a few more times, before deciding that Enjoy is the only song on the whole thing that has something to offer. It's on my iPod.

2. Do you like "All For You?"


I do. I think half of it is superb. Love Son of a Gun in particular.

I'd probably choose to get shot lol
It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

strangely J.Ho's cover reminds me of another fabulous flop:




Needless to say that Kylie's BL is miles better than these 2 albums!

Kylie's album is a straight-up classic, and I quite like 20 Y.O.. I haven't heard J-Lo, but I don't need to in order to know that I prefer Janet.

I play Body Language all the time. Rebirth had a few songs other songs by Rich Harrison besides Get Right that were tolerable.

I don't think there's a single duff track on Body Language nod Obviously some are stronger than others, but it's a lovely listen all the way through. Much better than stuff like Fever which is a bunch of singles mixed with fillers.

I can't agree with that- Fever is my favorite Kylie album- it broke my Kylie cherry and nearly 100 CDs/vinyl/tapes later, the story continues.

Body Language has one of my favorite Kylie tracks of all time--After Dark. I don't know why I love it so much. There's just something about it. Sexy and smooth. Love it. music

I didn't think much of 'After Dark' until she performed it live on TOTP. It somehow added lots of flavour to it.

Yeah- the TOTP performance did it for me too. I still prefer "You Make Me Feel", but "After Dark" is AOK in my book.

I just knew it must have been big because of the long delay. What's Elle's deal anyway? She's some kind of celebrity over there. lol
