I find myself singing this song when I hear the original come on the radio. I really like the song. I just wish it had been released as a single and had some extended remixes to it.

It's one of the few songs off of DJ I can listen to.
Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off

I think Janet even did a video for it. It was going to be a single. But got cancelled.

Some club mixes leaked (Dr. Octavo remixed it if I am not mistaken).

My janetology is very rusted. confused

I feel like pumping to some old school...

Virgin just sucked ass on the entire DJ promotion. Not much better with "20 YO".

Singles in order:

All Nite (Don't Stop)

I Want You/R&B Junkie (Double A-side with vintage videos with a connected story)

Slolove (Worldwide only single/Promo club single in USA)

Moist (don't laugh...with a diferent set of lyrics with would have been the baby making song of the decade. the instrumentalization is superb)

Yep! I listened to it a couple of times in the beginning, found it annoying as hell and then deleted it from my hard disk! I never listened to it since! I like most of the songs on that album, but never warmed up to this one!

One of Janets hottest tracks ever boxed everything about it is so perfect. Virgin always seem to back out of everythnig that seems to tilt, they shouldn't have done with this one. Hopefully the vid does come out. One spring day. razz

As a club music girl at heart, I loved this track. It should've been a single. I remember her doing a snippit of this song at the BET awards a few years back, with old school dances including one of my faves, "the wop" (I just told my age biggrin )

Not sure about "Moist" as a single (maybe if only just about everything else worked). Not sure about a double A-side either, considering at the time the business was just getting into digital singles. "Slolove" was a real wasted opportunity for an international hit. "All Nite" is such a great track and how it bombed....I don't know! I hope she does it on the new tour (even if I'm not there but it sounds like the tour will hit DVD and/or TV).
