JJATL Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 (edited) Hello all - I've been enjoying this forum as a "voyer" for a little while now, and since the release of this new incredible album, I've felt compelled to register and post. I grew up on Janet, standing in front of the TV with my older sister when the "Pleasure Principle" video came out and then "Miss You Much," trying to learn all the dances right along with her. It was 1989, when I was in 4th grade, that I became connected to Janet's music and unmatched performance abilities. I was mesmerized by her. It was summer before 9th grade that I learned the entire "If" video choreography (like many of you I'm sure) and thought i was the shit! It was when I was a freshman in college that the Velvet Rope got me through my very difficult time coming out to my friends and family. I've followed her faithfully ever since, and now in my mid 30's it brings tears to my eyes listening to this new album, especially to songs like "Well Traveled" and "Shoulda Known Better." That last line about a rhythm nation being the dream seriously chokes me up. It's like I've (we've) been on this long journey with her over the last 30 years, and this new music brings everything full circle for us (for her too I'm sure). This album brings pure joy to my soul, and I hope she feels the love and appreciation from her long-time fans because I don't think we could have asked for a more quality and meaningful piece of work from her. Well done, Janet. Brava! Edited October 7, 2015 by JJATL 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeJoe Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Welcome! Now make sure you're following Janet on twitter, facebook, and instagram and spread the love. Also make sure you have her digital album on Itunes so that way you get the awesome "No Sleeep" (AFSheen Remix) and then get the Target exclusive album with 2 bonus tracks that you can't get with the digital album. You have to get both because while the digital album doesn't have the bonus tracks the Target album doesn't have the "No Sleeep" remix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
