Mr. Wonder Posted May 13, 2012 Author Share Posted May 13, 2012 So during graduation/commencement on Saturday I was not looking forward to sitting in the baking sun being lectured for two hours. So I decided to spend my two hours listening to Janet on my iPod. She has such an amazing catalog. But I noticed DJ, 20, janet. and DS are really "piecey". Like, I listen to one song, skip three, play two, skip two, then play two, etc. The flow on those songs aren't as strong on say RN1814 and Control. But in any event, during the singing of the national anthem, everyone sang "The Star Spangled Banner". I sang "Rhythm Nation". During the opening prayer, the speaker prayed. I recited "The Pledge". When it came time for the Alma Mater and the closing pledge, I played "Control". Now I'm not disrespecting the school, I just feel like my song selection was more befitting than what was given in the ceremony booklet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwistedElegance™ Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I'm flicking through my latest WHO magazine (Australia's version of PEOPLE) as I do every weekend, and what do I see? Janet's Time Machine Michael Jackson's little sister turned 46 on May 16 - but you would never know it. The singer, who has been vocal about her life-long struggle with weight, has very little to say about her seemingly ageless skin. After photos emerged of the star at the opening of the Supermodels exhibition in New York on May 10, WHO went back 20 years and although there is clearly a wrinkle in the space-time continuum, we couldn't find a single one on her face. The best $4.80 I spent this weekend. So during graduation/commencement on Saturday I was not looking forward to sitting in the baking sun being lectured for two hours.

Mr. Wonder Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 What is your interpretation of the "You" and TAT performances? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Wonder Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 First of all, "You" is a song about self-awareness, and that understanding that you can lie to others, but you can't lie to yourself. We put on many different faces, or disguises if you will, to hide ourselves. And I think that explains the double faces on the dancers. Regardless of what face we have on, it's still the same to ourselves. As for TAT, I think the visuals are symbolic different issues that plague a relationship, be it trust, pain, trickery, deceit, etc (excuse the pun). The costumes represent the demons that exist in a relationship. And as the bridge comes in, as pictured above, they all kinda fall off of Janet to represent the killing off of each demon, and that trust and truth will always prevail.

hotboy06 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Two of my favorite performances.. Yesterday while I was at work, I was going to have my interpretation, but I actually had to do some work.. But anyway, "You" is about facing yourself and being who you truly are. I imagine Janet writing this song in the mirror. When you point at yourself in the mirror, you're pointing at yourself. Janet is such a genius. The "TAT" performance is my favorite tour performance. The choreography pretty much told the story. All the costumes represented a torrid relationship and Janet stripping them away in order for trust to happen again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bu. Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Today I felt the wrath that Janhova Jackson felt during the trials of Superbowl. I got on the bus this morning and gave a £10 note for a £3.90 bus fare. The change of £6.10 was THROWN back at me and landed on the floor. I bent over to get it and my wardrobe malfunctioned...my trousers came undone, my boxers failed and my butt crack was revealed. I immediately felt the backlash. I was blacklisted by the bus driver as he asked me to leave the bus. Once again the white man persecuted the thnic minority. He was the Justin to my butt. I had mixed support from the nation in the bus - the majority supported me. They said it was an accident and I should stay however this was not enough as what the bus driver said - went. With the power of Janhova I endured this trial and perservered. I never apologised. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Wonder Posted June 15, 2012 Author Share Posted June 15, 2012 "Nasty" just crossed 1,000 plays on my iTunes. I know I've listened to it more than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bu. Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Janhova helped me. My grandfather is in hospital dying and unfortunately I can't be there through mothers orders. Anyway I started crying yesterday thinking about him but then randomly June 30th popped into my head - the day I saw Janhova. I remember being on the front row and Janhova looking down on me during Miss You Much and smiling. I smiled and my pain went away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennita Jo. Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Forgive me Janhova, for I have sinned. I've been riding the Madonna train full-steam lately and have immersed myself her early catalogue, most of which I had only heard once or twice. But I found it to be a healthy lesson in iconography and in all honesty, it made me lose sight of Janhova for a moment. I don't listen to the album much because it's so sentimental, but I bought a pair of "audiophile" headphones last week and decided to experience TVR on them. Like a virgin, it was like hearing it for the very first time. Madonna may be Queen but Janhova is Goddess. TVR is my everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She allows one to pay dust to the lessors so long as you remember that Janhova is #1 and will forever be as such. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwistedElegance™ Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 ^^^Do you reset your plays after some time? No. I was expecting my counts to be higher but after all there are 2,290 artists in my library. They're not bad stats in the grand scheme of things.
