Janet Jackson - Enjoy

http://www.youtube.com/wa...2TwYYCgUb8


I love this song. One of the best of the last 10 years for her. Should have been a huge hit. Shame on u Virgin.

20 Y.O. is undeservedly slighted, in my mind. "Enjoy" is one of her best pop songs, and there are many other great cuts on that album, my favorite being "With U".

Enjoy was always boring to me. I like Take Care. I really enjoyed 20 Y.O. it reminded me of janet from the 90s. I just think people didn't want to support this album b/c she didnt have a smash hit off this album.

I never thought it was up there with her best, although it's certainly not a bad little song. It just seemed like a re-write of "Runaway", which was pretty much a "Whoops Now" retread, which was just a take-off of "Escapade", which was sublime. For me, 20 YO was pretty much her lowest ebb (other than her first two LPs). Hell, the B-sides from janet.remixed all pwned 20 YO.

It's one of her best and it's such a standout on such a blah album. Even on a better album it would stand out. Virgin dropped the ball big time.

Really cool song. Thanks for posting. I haven´t heard it before. It´s very infectious. I´ve been listening to it over and over. I surely would have been a great hit.

Here´s a very nice video version made of Janet videos.

i prefer 20yo to 'discipline' and i don't know why people disliked the album. IMO the weakeset song was 'call on me' which was a #1 r&b hit - so i don't think there is much filler on the album.

Add 'roll widchu' and 'days go by' - the album would have been solid. And change the lazy title too.

I didnt like Days Go By or Roll With You. They should have put Weekend 2006 on there though.

That's hard to say. Depends on my mood. Those are my 2 faves though. Probably "With U" and "Show Me" next.

20 Y.O was a great album. I think she should have released the videos/singles like this

1. Get it Out of Me
2. So Excited
3. With U
4. This Body
5. Enjoy
