I'm inclined to think that way...

I'm not a betting man, but my gut instinct says no.

Yeah that's a pretty bold statement to make. But I do agree that the timing of this family "planning" seems a little suspicious/convenient...

Dammn Baby would be a fitting title I guess. ?

Well... That's a PR spin I wasn't expecting! ?

I had my doubts about the European leg being rescheduled anyway, but I honestly think this is it for the tour now, whatever she says. She'll be out for the rest of the year now and won't exactly be in a rush to leave her baby once he or she is born, which of course is understandable. By the time she'll be ready to tour again the album will be over three years old and largely forgotten about. Perhaps this is what she meant by her three year plan for Unbreakable. ?

It's in the same league, but I would rank it third behind the other two. It's a classic album, jam packed with hits and some amazing album tracks. Sometimes I even prefer it to RN, depending on my mood. TVR is always #1 though. ?

Same. Unbreakable is a great album, and one of my favourite releases of 2015, but the holy trinity of The Velvet Rope, RN1814 & janet. are in a different league IMO.

Damnn Baby is probably my favourite if I had to pick just one. Honourable mentions go to The Great Forever and Take Me Away.

Haven't you just contradicted yourself there? ?

I really loved the RWU video, but I'd personally say her last "great" video was Son Of A Gun...

I think that's the most frustrating thing about this era. She keeps saying (or, rather, some of her fans keep saying) that we need to "hear it from her lips" - but that only works if she actually says something! I've gotten over the fact that the European tour was "postponed" for seemingly no reason (I had tickets to see her in Manchester next week), but to have had not one single word of apology for the inconvenience she's caused her European fans is, quite frankly, rather insulting.

It's been this way since the beginning of the tour. I've noticed that about the choreography too - a lot of walking about the stage and less intricate compared to the RWU/UCAP tours.

Listening to those two songs always give me Everytime vibes - another ballad I love, but doesn't seem to be that popular with fans. I wasn't that impressed with the ballads on Damita Jo and 20YO so I was glad to get a couple of pop ballads on Discipline.

Some of the RWU outfits were a little unflattering but, on the whole, I thought that the staging, the setlist and the choreography was on point. I've only ever seen the whole concert once when somebody posted it on YouTube a few years ago but from what I can remember it looked better than her current tour, which looks a little basic to me. I did have the pleasure of seeing Janet performing in Hong Kong though during the UCAP tour, but there was nothing special about the staging there either.

I actually happen to really like Greatest X and Never Letchu Go too for that matter, but then I've always had a soft spot for soppy pop ballads. After You Fall on the other hand is a song I just can't get into. Vocally, it's probably one of Janet's strongest efforts but I find I tend to skip that song altogether when listening to the Unbreakable album.
