Its a good song, but why compare it to again? That song is just classic, and really, they are both so different, can't they both just be great songs?

Let's not make this Jody vs. Janet, they are both great IMO.

Hey baby! Don't get me in here actin' silly now! You're not taping this are you... ????

They are both great.

I wished Jody had more succes though, she's very, very underrated.

I agree, it seems that people stopped caring after the 80's which is a shame because I think she has a beautiful voice and her albums in the 90's are so underrated, even The Makeover was awesome, I loved her take on Diana Ross' Love Hangover and The Carpenters medley, her voice can be so beautiful and yet haunting at the same time.

Really. "Again" is a dreamy, Academy Award-nominated classic. I love Jody, but just stop it with the Janet hate. lol
