I'd be flamed for days which is not a bad thing but I don't have the energy for a debate. Plus my opinion is not based in fact and Im sure there are otehr inductees that may fall in the same category if I bothered to look. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |

She's celebrated two decades as if 1986 was her first album so the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame should consider "Control" as her first also. . . [Edited 2/24/07 16:16pm] Andy is a four letter word. | |

[Edited 2/24/07 16:16pm] Exactly, nobody gives Janet Jackson and Dream Street any love. I know fans who don't acknowledge them either, just like how alot of MJ fans don't acknowledge the Motown LPs. "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." |

If not, then no. [Edited 2/23/07 10:16am] Why should Olivia be in the Hall? Janet.....hell yes. What has Olivia done that Janet hasn't done at least five times over? Oh trust me--I am absolutely no fan of Olivia. So to answer your question, Nothing really. They both suck.  | |

Olivia had a cover of her song Let's Get Physical done by a drunken Bill Murray on David Letterman's premiere airing. If that doesn't qualify for Hall-Of-Fame status..... 
I'm struggling to understand why exactly Janet deserves a place in the RRHOF
I mean, if they let Janet have it, why not the Spice Girls? Or say, any other half talent with a good choreographer or producer(s)? Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis--now THAT is RRHOF material. | |

[Edited 2/24/07 16:16pm] Dreamstreet is out of print and I'm not sure if this album was ever release in the CD format. However, most Circuit City locations close to major cities would still have Janet Jackson every now and then on CD. So the truth is still out there. But it's up to The Janet Fan Club members to show the evidence to the HOF committee boardmembers. | |

With RN1814, Janet became the first female recording artist to have 7 top 10 hit singles (Billboard Hot 100 Singles USA) from one album. THIS alone is a great reason to put her in the R&R HOF right now if possible!  [Edited 2/24/07 22:30pm] | |

I don´t know. Up till Janet album, she was huge, great, but since than.... "When Michael Jackson is just singing and dancing, you just think this is an astonishing talent. And he has had this astounding talent all his life, but we want him to be floored as well. We really don´t like the idea that he could have it all." | |

The RNRHF lets anyone in, really it should just change its name to "Music You Can Buy In The GiftShop." The Most Important Thing In Life Is Sincerity....Once You Can Fake That, You Can Fake Anything. |

Have Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis been inducted already? | |
| - E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
Isn't there criteria? Like, having to play an instrument?
DAMN, Janet Jackson.... 
The only thing Jimmy Jam and Terry DIDN'T do for her was sing.... Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind. | |

Space for sale... | |

well it is inevitable whether people like it or not. It is going to happen. There's not a year that goes by that Janet is not being honored or gettting an for something. She must hold the record the most awards received so why should the HOF be any different.
Despite that last two albums she has an excellent catalog of music so why not. | |

Janet sold too many records not to be a member, hate or love her these are the facts. I loved her from Good Times up until All For You. I'm not really feeling her now though. Haven't felt Olivia since a teenie bopper when she did Grease, even stood by her in Xanidu "A Little More Love".....until I heard it recently and slapped myself silly. | |

Seriously, I have to agree. Terry and Jimmy made Janet who she is today. They deserve the RRHoF, not Janet. | |
