I hope you all are this strong and tough in real life.
[Flame snip - luv4u] How is making the most oddest comparison between two videos that aren't alike in any shape or form -- a compliment to Janet? Yea, the vid isn't all that but its NOT a tribute to him. Get over it. The only one acting maniacal is you with these crazy ass posts up in here. You can't see what I see in the video. Why become aggressive over that? Do you know what subjectivity is, regarding art? At least I didn't come in here denigrating the film like you and others.

I have a full schedule of photo shoots, interviews, etc. I also have a new album to consider doing this year. But through all that.....I am going to make it about my brother, and maybe some person on prince.org will see that and enlighten the world to my secret plan of making everything in my career about my brother now that he's dead. Because of course, we're all here to capitalize on his death." Really, man? REALLY? FO' REAL THO?! /thread's over. I didn't have to nWo it. Yeah, ok. Although I could really use some New World Order information regarding Janet Jackson. But I'd prefer some wrestler or TonyVanDamm telling me that.

Yeah exactly. I don't see it as an epic failure. The video was what I thought it would be. Surely it ain't like it was tied to a studio effort like "Again" was. And it wasn't as epic as "Doesn't Really Matter", which was a dance track. This was just another ballad. | |

[Bait snip - luv4u] [Snip - luv4u] Nope, just stated my artistic observation, which was nothing that should have triggered you and your friends' anger management problems. I don't need to seek/provoke arguments with strangers over the internet like you all, so why don't you just stop quoting me as well. Cool?

Timmy84 said: ernestsewell said: What does that mean? I don't get it. The song is for the movie soundtrack, and has been released on .iTunes. I'm old school, I keep figuring "released" meant physically released, not digitally. Ahh got it. Well I always think "it's out there for real now" when I hear "released". Hopefully there will be a single. | |

I like it. It reminds me of the "Again" video. I wanted to bust Malik upside his head when he splashed that vodka all over Jan | |

oh come on, it's not that bad
i like the song, it's the first janet song in a long time that i've instantly liked. she's actually singing again instead of mumbling and it makes me realise again that she's got a beautiful, soothing voice. the video ain't that bad either. it's a bit lame but it's also got a very 'honest' feel. just up close and personal. for me anyway, this song and video are a reminder that she's not completely gone over to the whispering android 40+ years old wanna be sexkitten. she looks like a grown woman again who's singing a nice song with an actual melody and 'real' lyrics. i say bravo and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

ernestsewell said: "Feedback" is the worst video. "Everytime" isn't far behind.
This song is going to have to grow on me, but I do appreciate the character's emotions or ideas from the movie being in the lyrics. I liked "Everytime". I didn't care for "Because of Love," though. As for "Nothing", I do like the concept, but it is extremely cheap looking. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

She's completely shitting on her legacy by releasing a song/video like this.
Even Neneh Cherry's late 80's ghetto sized budget videos were better than this. Get yourself together girl! If you can't do it right...then don't do it at all. I can't believe this is where Janet's music career is right now. Fucking sad. | |

That's a bit over dramatic, and full of nonsense. | |
