Her "chanting"..the background vocals..the melody..the production(drum programming, guitars, THAT SAMPLE). Janet, Jimmy, and Terry had time that day. It truly is something special. The way she interpolates the lyrics, the structure of how she sings. It's SO weird and unique for a pop song, and it's so visceral when you figure out the lyrics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember her doing an interview and she said that it was the first song the label wanted to release..but she fought for TTWLG to be the lead single..she said the fans wanted a dance video but she wanted to ease the audience into the record. When "If" was released(the video) it spawned a million dance routines at talent shows.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angela Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 You. The Conscience part won me over. Stroke of genius. Honorable mention to Go Deep 3:57 for keeping fans mystified for over 20 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mariah Carey recently sat down with Genius and dissected her lyrics from throughout her career and gave so much insight into the stories behind the songs etc. It was really incredible to watch as a lifelong stan. Like it was over an hour long too. I’d love for Janet to do something like that. Like actually talking about specific songs and lines in songs and hearing more about the background and what inspired it etc. Especially the album cuts. I know we got stories in True You but a sit down interview would be amazing. Oh well a guy can dream haha, That was a really great interview and I appreciated the interviewer actually doing their homework. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
