That was a nasty beat Jimmy and terry did with the James Brown single (I don't need nobody to give me nothing, open up the door, Ill get it myself) and it fit Janet's vocals. If you cant nod your head to this, somethings wrong.

As much as I love "The Skin Game," I think it might work better as a b-side. OTOH, "You Need Me" probably should've made that album, but I concede that it may have been a little too angry to fit.

"You Need Me" is pretty awesome and fits the sound of the album but not so much the theme of the album, which is the only reason it got tossed.

Janet had b-sides???
