January 31, 20223 yr The documentary is out in the US. Nice to see a boost for her back catalogue: iTunes Albums: 4. Control 6. Design of a Decade 1986/1996 9. Rhythm Nation 1814 13. Janet. 16. The Velvet Rope 18. Best of Number Ones 26. Unbreakable 52. Damita Jo 55. All for You 60. Discipline 96. 20 Y.O.
January 31, 20223 yr Good to see her getting a boost, very much deserved as the last 15 years have been so difficult for her. So underrated. Always very curious to see the show but it doesn't seem to be available online everywhere.
February 6, 20223 yr Finished the documentary series and am blown away with it. I thought I loved her before but learning about her life has made me respect her even more than I did before. A phenomonal woman and blueprint for music! I have a link if anyone wants it to watch it online~

A phenomonal woman and blueprint for music! I have a link if anyone wants it to watch it online~ I agree, she's amazing. So good of her to tell Justin Timberlake to stay quiet during the Superbowl, he's been quite lucky in his career avoiding scandals.
February 12, 20223 yr Watching Rhythm Nation Tour on Youtube for the first time!! Such a shame its terribly lit!!

Got 'Til It's Gone (Armand Van Helden Bonus Beats) * = new to streaming ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Slowly but surely her presence on streaming and YouTube is improving. The situation with videos on YouTube has been a mess for a very long time. A lot weren't uploaded, while others were blocked from being able to be viewed in most countries (so bizarre!). Understandably this really irritated her fanbase. Uploaded in 2022: , , , , Doesn't Really Matter Unblocked in 2022: I Get Lonely, , , ^ Together Again in HD looks artificial, I think it's just AI software. It's preferable to 360p, but I wish they'd have been able to find the original reels for it and work on it again, because it's such a stunning video and I don't think its current quality really does it much justice. As things stand these are still missing from her channel: Alright, Runaway, Together Again (Go Deeper Remix), You, Everytime, Just A Little While & All Nite (Don't Stop). Doesn't Really Matter was only uploaded 3 days ago: ZGo4WebNIjM Make Me has been re-uploaded in 4K! nbZAyU1hz4k I Get Lonely has been on her channel since 17th November 2010 but it was blocked throughout most of the world until 4 days ago. In almost 12 years it only managed 220,000 views. I'd love to know how or why her record label didn't notice or care until now. Not only that but this video's default picture used to be Beverley Knight Come As You Are CD sleeve image, but thankfully they've updated that too! :lol: euWjl-dBG9w It was this:
October 4, 20222 yr The I Get So Lonely situation is weird because it's not like it was some low-charting single - it went #3 in the US and #5 in the UK! On the other hand it goes in hand with her (former) label(s) not really caring about her stuff for whatever reason; I remember in the early 00s, pre-YouTube, streaming and social media that everyone was complaining how messy her (lack of) updated certifications were! Hopefully they'll start sorting that out too. ETA: Janet actually hasn't had a RIAA certification since 2006 (!) when the label quickly certified 20YO as Gold. :ph34r: Edited October 4, 20222 yr by tommie
October 4, 20222 yr Still waiting for the release of Special (the not cut off just as it’s properly building 2022 right that wrong remix)
October 4, 20222 yr Author When I checked out Janet's discography at the start of lockdown, I do remember her YouTube channel being an absolute shambles. I had noticed a few videos being unblocked last year (the key one I remember was 'All for You') and I'm glad that's continued to the point where we nearly have all her videos uploaded. 25 anniversary of 'The Velvet Rope' in a few days! Need to revisit her albums again as it's been a while since I've listened.
October 4, 20222 yr 25 years since one of my favourite albums of all time. The Velvet Rope is such a special listen, it evokes so many emotions throughout it. I am super excited for the deluxe version! Also:
