That's true.Maybe Janet should just say "fuck it" and do a Greatest Hits tour this summer.Focus on the old songs....remind people why they became fans in the first place.It'll take alot of pressure off of her. . [Edited 3/20/08 2:11am] you mean Janet is just going to tour. new song, if, slow medley, control medly, whimiscal medly, new song, alright, slow song, pull guy out of audience song, black cat, rthytm nation, that's the way love goes, new song, together again.

there are quite a few songs on the album which are stupid... Like so much betta, rollercoaster, dicipline, and that one she made with missy....
she had 5-6 decent songs on the album.. but the interludes were so cheesy... and annoying... what was she calling that robot... AOKEY.. anyways.... if you just heard feedback and rock with you.. YOU would think the album was going to be filled with electro dance songs... but really it has lots of slow songs.... | |

How many of ya'll listen to the actual "radio" anymore?
I really don't listen to mainstream radio anymore except when I have to--and usually that's more a conservative choice of stations then I would listen to on my own. Even my gym has satellite radio. I just think artists are going to have to change the way they promote their work. I just hope Janet doesn't get too discouraged, deciding NOT to tour. | |

I listen to the radio in the car when I don't have my iPods or CDs on me which is rare and I'd rather listen to myself talking out loud than the radio. Whenever I give it a whirl it's the SAME TEN SONGS and way too many commercials. Just horrible, although I am currently digging a new rock station we just got in the area. Other than that why do they need DJs? jut put playlist on repeat. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |

BUT... this album has some of the best songs... like a few of her songs sounds like MJ and I those songs.. like whats your name... i like that one.... but i was disappointed towards the end of the album... with the slow song discipline.. and rollercoaster which has an annoying beat... and so much better is a cheap song.. a ghetto song that you would find on some basement bootleg... and that song with missy its really wow.. thats all i can say.. but I REALLY HATE ROLLERCOASTER.... it sounds like someone accident put that beat together.. i wanted this album to be more dance.. and it was NOT... BUT... it had 5-6 decent songs.. and thats enough for me.... i don't expect to EVER like a full album unless its MICHAEL JACKSON.. i just like hearing his voice.. | |

If I'm in the mood for the new dance tracks, I'll play those, and if I'm in the mood for the ballads which I really like this time aside from Curtains, I'll play those. [Edited 3/21/08 12:37pm] | |

[Edited 3/21/08 12:37pm] Right....even though that's what was promised, it's more midtempo and slow stuff than full on dance/upbeat. If she tours (sadly, I think her flu is her leaving for another year or two to come up with the next album/project) it will be intersting to hear what is added. I wouldn't that a lot of the slower songs sneak in there. "Disicpline" almost certaintly. | |

Unless something changes,this CD may not even reach gold status,at least here in the States.There needs to be some more aggressive promotion. | |
