#JanetJackson #BlackCat
Black cat is one of Janet's best songs 🎵
THE BEST!!
@@bobthebear1246 absolutely 💯
First part meow meow 💜 it go girl
Without question! 🔥🎤🎸🔥
Most certainly my favorite Janet song
The 1st and Only Black Woman to Have a # 1 Rock Song On the Billboard Rock Chart.. Shes a Head Banger
Tina Turner says hi
Absolutely, I was utterly impressed and wish she had continued to push this envelope if she did I never was blessed enough to see it. Just beautiful rock an roll! Love Tina Tuner too, we need more of this why should there be so few.
Well, Janet borrowed and reworked the Riff from "I Hate Myself for Loving You" by Joan Jeff and the Blackhearts. She has a rock hit because she copied an existing rock song.
I'm just happy ALL of these women y'all are arguing about, rocked their legacies in their own unique ways. \m/
Homeboy sure can wail away on the Guitar 4 sure...😉🙃✌👌✊
32 years later STILL a bangin' track. LOVE THIS!
Those Jackson's sure know how to create a lasting song that defies time.
Agree!!
I totally agree
Yup and I saw this in concert!
Holy fuck..... 32 years!!!?!? I remember this like it was yesterday.
ur lucky@@sl4983
This woman was everything. She could make a huge hit in any genre. Pure talent!
She. Still does
You're writing about her as she had Paulas management.
the only artist in history to receive grammy nominations in 5 different genres. rock, pop, hip-hop, rap and r&b. janet jackson is as diverse as they come. it can't get any better than her.
Absolutely..And she is the 1st female out of six to be nominated for producer of the year at the grammys .. Only six. Women have been nominated including lauryn hill, Mariah Carey, Sheryl Crow etc
Jo Dunk...Better then michael really..LoL.Lol
Fact
This is a song I'd expect from Alice Cooper, not Janet Jackson. I'M IMPRESSED!!!
Hip hop ≠ rap?
Arguably one of the most under rated greatest music artists ever. Looking back at what she achieved with Rhythm Nation is untouched by any other artist.
She was/is unique!
😆👍🏻🌈✨
The only Artist ever
To have seven top 5 hits on one album
All should of been #1
In my opinion
I just love me some Janet Jackson
She's so sucsessful but underrated. 😔
She's a beauty.
Agreed. She should have gotten more recognition for all she put forth
Im 51 year old white male. Favorite song hands frickin down. There is no female performer new or old, black or white that can beat Janet. Love this woman!
My thoughts exactly 💯
I’m 35. One of my favorites too. You’ll never guess how I found it…
thats right!
@@nostalgiaman6816 share this story :)
@@piotrkucharski1060 It’s Ravishing Rick Rude’s 1st WCW theme. They sampled it from Janet haha!
Do you understand how cataclysmically huge of a star you'd have to be to throw out a rock record and it to reach Billboard's Hot 100 No. 1 especially with the competition of the 90s?!!!! The blueprint. The Greatest Female Performer of All-Time!
💯 on point
Pravda.Je a bude najlepšia.
She deserves a place in Rock and roll hall of fame for this one
R Lo And she’s there!
Yes she does I love Janet
She got inducted two years ago
Um
She's In
AND GOT ONE
Janet did this song because She stated She'd always wanted to do a Rock song! She pulled that off big time!
Yeah she said as a teen she was a big fan of Motley Crue, Poison and the like. She obviously knew what she was doing here. I don't think any other pop artist besides Janet or Michael could've pulled this off. Especially to the extent of hard rock/metal fans liking it. We will _pounce_ if a crossover comes off as pandering or inauthentic, which is probably why few attempt to dip their toes in the genre to begin with.
@@zmbdog I think Lenny Cravitz, Prince and maybe even Bruno Mars could have done a great job at it, too. Especially Lenny & Prince and especially as a duet. I could also see Sheila E. on percussion and and back- up vocals on this track. Whatdayathink?
@@virgilwyatt4632 I'm not familiar with Bruno Mars. Prince or Lenny Kravitz I could see but I've never thought of them as purely 'pop' stars. Lenny's always had a rock edge and Prince is like...experimental is what he does. I'm kinda surprised he hasn't ventured into metal. He actually commissioned Warrant's demos! They were done at Paisley Park and led to the band getting signed with Columbia.
@@virgilwyatt4632 Okay somehow the second half of my comment is MIA. Weird, here's the redux...
As far as someone firmly in mainstream pop...it's hard to imagine. Like, Madonna or Paula Abdul couldn't do this. You can just tell, they don't have it in them. Cher might. I can't seem to gauge her. I just see a game show mystery box. I'd say the closest to maybe doing it well would be Tina Turner or Bonnie Tyler. Vocally, no problem. I just question if they could write it. This one isn't just good, it's appropriate, lyrically. And I'd bet it happened naturally, she just wrote what she felt. I like "Escapade" but if this song had the same subject matter, it wouldn't gel. I think with Tina or Bonnie we'd probably get something along those lines at best and it would just seem disingenuous. I'd love to hear them do a metal cover. Especially Tina, I could see her getting up on stage even with something super-heavy and just blow it up!
She wrote it on her own and it went number one. That must have felt so fulfilling!!
Still listening to Rhythm Nation 1814 on May 2nd 2024 🐈⬛
😂❤same
WooHoo!!
Rhythm nation is one of the best albums of all time janet combined all the genres of that era and crushed it!
Janet Jackson goes Metal!!!! 🤘🏻
Fun Fact: Janet wrote this entire song; music first, then words. Perfect song, and an absolute headbanger. (Metalhead here ) She should have done some more songs like this.
Fun Fact II: Nuno Bettencourt on gtr
She was also a huge fan of Motley Crue especially Dr. Feelgood, Which inspired her to add the heavy guitar riffs.
Jada Pinkett is more metal than Janet.
On her "All For You" album, she's got some rock headbangers like "You Ain't Right" and "Trust A Try".
ЛУЧШАЯ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Concerts don't be lit like this anymore she's definitely a legend
Don't be lit. YEAHHH
Because people are to busy recording the experience for the worl instead a LIVING the experience
Beyoncé’s are
You shoulda seen her bros concerts. Shake the entire post code
Eddie Griffin on stage
Janet style is so versatile....hard for these young girls to compete with this legend
That guitar solo is 🔥
Nuno Bettencourt. He's one of the best.
@@randy3098 And gorgeous to look at too!
@@randy3098 Nuno’s not playing the solo. Only the rhythm.
@@stevemineer2857 I just watched an interview and Nuno said he played all the parts.
@@Maitland-76 Nuno only does the rhythm guitar, not the solos.
Michael Dirty Diana 🔥 Janet Black Cat 🔥
Throw in "Give into me" feat Slash as well.
Yes!!!
My two favorite videos ✌️👌❤️❤️
All the Jacksons RULED the 80's! No one dethroned them! What a legacy!
They are the only ones that matter!! Lol arguement over!
TOTALLY.
@@doyleperkins4916 Yassss Queen!
Actually , there WAS this young brother named
Prince Rogers Nelson in the 🏠.
He made a BIG impact.
Still does, even though he hasn't
been around much lately.
Totally agree with @MerKaBa
Rebbie and La Toya tried hard, but they failed. Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon and Randy were more like backup dancers and singers for Michael tbeh (to be extremely honest)
damn she fit right into the rock genre .. especially performing on stage ... she should've done more of it
This ain't rock. This is magic.
So disappointed that she never did a rock album. This song was popular back in the day amongst rock lovers including myself. I still listen to this song. Never gets old.
Your not wrong there. I don't know if you saw what I wrote, apparently Lemmy (god rest his soul) from Motorhead absolutely loved that song and even wanted to do a duet with Janet. His record company said NO.
CONGRATULATIONS To JANET JACKSON!! You are now a Rock N Roll Hall inductee!!!!!!
Didn't she just have a baby at 50 too?
@@AnnaLVajda Jean Michael Jackson is his name 😉🙃✌✊
@@ghostwriter4303 BEAUTIFUL!!!
What's dope is that, she was never in the shadow of Michael Jackson. It was easy to forget they were brother and sister which is good. Yea, maybe her being his litter sister got her foot in the door but, after that, she took off running in her own direction and made sure to leave her trail.
I agree. Janet never relied on her last name or her brother. She became an star in her own right.
frank ponds her being a Jackson period got her in the door not MJ.
Yes!! 🙌🙌
Roles on the sitcoms Good Times and Diff'rent Strokes, plus the first album were because of her last name.
But then, she got Control.
The irony is that this whole video / song screams MJ Bad-era rip off.
Black woman wants to rock in 1990! Love it!
I love this video. Everybody enjoying themselves and dancing. In “all” ages. Some dressed in t-shirts others in tuxedos. People of all colors in unity. With a big smile on their faces. Such a great vibe! ❤❤❤ Can’t we all just have this energy everyday.... Please and thank you. 😂
Youngsters..this is what true talent looks like...and she didn't need to be nearly naked to be sexy. She was In Control. She never was in her brother's shadows. She made her own way.
Granny, thank you for your unwanted "lesson". We have Adele, Britney Spears, the late Amy Winehouse and Beyonce. We know what talent is 🙄
@@ludovicoavellino9567 You can add Ariana Grande and Lady Gaga to your list.
@@martinkuliza Preach !!

Amen

*I WAS AT THAT CONCERT!!!!!!!!!* Awesome memories :)
Lucky!!!! :'(
MJ Swagger ...And also very old lol!
Just a year behind Janet :(
+T Davis XD
omg u are so lucky
Raveen Brack Yeah it was something to remember that's for sure!
Janet is one the best singer/dancer to ever exist. Black Cat is fire, the energy it produces, captures your body and you can't help but move to the beat. Before you know it, you feel enraptured by it caught up in its grasp. You feel powerful and you feel like you can take on anything. And when they hit you with that guitar solo. You are headbanging to it. Janet this one of the best songs you have ever done. Female singers take notes this how its done.
Rap music my ass. This is fucking fantastic. Sheer talent, the core of the hard pop. Goose bumps all over.....
+Влад Борисыч Nuno rocks the shit out of the tune, great song. Almost sounds like Extreme in a weird way.
Why u mentioned rap music?
I agree!!
+Влад Борисыч 100%....this is more "metal" than anything most supposed heavy bands could ever hope to pull off....
This song is actually really damn good! Pretty positive this just shot up to my favorite Janet Jackson song, and that's coming from a predominant Metalhead!
Especially when you find out that riff was originally written and recorded by none other than Nuno Bettencourt. Michael got Eddie, she took Nuno. They knew what they were doing
Same!
me too!
From the very first time I ever heard this song I always thought more rock n roll was her calling. I wish she would’ve done many more like this
She liked listening to music from Mötley Crüe and Def Leppard and I think that came through in this song.
The JJ version of Dirty Diana.. Such a huge gifted woman who doesnt get enough recognition imo...
She wasn't huge back then though 😊
@@hamishmctiaigh4363yes she was
This is the kind of classic rock that classic rock fans don't ever mention: hits by black people, especially black women. This song was a #1 hit back in the day!
@Radar Love but it’s true the pioneers of the genre were all black and paid dust😵💫.
She's amazing
Because then they'd have to acknowledge that they stole rock and corrupted it.
@@squarebear619 Nobody stole anything.
@@nickpavia9021 History, as well as present day, has shown that is a lie. It's so sad for you all because now everyone has access to true info and not the bs propaganda your type has been shilling for too long.🥰
Janet gave is Black Cat and Mike gave us Dirty Diana I LOVE IT!!!
legends of their generation.
Yorlanda Golden I agree!!!
Yorlanda Golden my 2 favorite songs☺️☺️
Yes love the 2 videos they're so similar
They both inspire each other. Love it
This was probably Janet's best song and peformance next to rhythm nation.
This woman's voice is freaking phenomenal
Janet can go from R&B to pop and Rock with the same power and talent... Unique!! Janet the Queen Icon of Music :)
Janet Jackson wrote this completely on her own
Rhianna Barr She composed it as well.
She was in control.
#fact
My favorite❤️❤️
I absolutely think Janet had more talent than all the others. She is a great performer, awesome singer, sexy as hell and over all diva.
JJ is so underrated because in a way she was always walking in the shadow of her brother, I love her music as much as I love Michael's.
it is NOT underrated! just because you feel a certain way about something does not make it so! Its rated whatever it is according to how many ppl like it! so sick of ppl saying' this or that" is so underrated! bust a nut of you need to but stop saying that.
@@doobly140 whaaaaaa 😭 want a tissue?
Well, she kind of rips Michael off in every sense in this song - looks, clothes, moves, "do a heavy guitar-riff-song a la Michael Jackson Bad-era". So she deserved to walk in Micheal's shadow as he was the true king.
@@doobly140bro…chiiiill 😆
I’d say Janet is on the same level as Michael. Michael is more popular but that’s because he was recording music about a decade before Janet’s self titled debut album was released. Control and Rhythm Nation 1814 is what propelled her to superstar status.
After MJ saw his sister do this video he immediately went into the studio to create some heavy tones and sounds for his next project - Dangerous. They both inspired each other.
Great tune and artist. We tried with my friend from R&O to review this great song. Maybe we succeeded, maybe not, we let you be the judge if you have two or three minutes to spare and a thumb up or down to add, come listen and judge us here :-) : ua-cam.com/video/jf3NHvyhmkI/v-deo.html and stay safe
He was a big fan of the entire Rhythm Nation album, especially The Knowledge.
They are and we're both capable of some seriously hard rock.
MJ already did Dirty Diana at this point
This whole video is giving Dirty Diana and Come Together ngl
Janet Jackson at the top of her game take notes YOUNG Artists
what for, they don’t need to 🤷♀️ today era you can get in the industry without talent and make it big by twerking or using twitter to do dumb shit
Copied comment. You’re getting reported.
Janet Jackson is a true living legend. Trust and believe me touring and performing isn't easy as we think and Janet is a example of hard work.
👌🏼👍🏼✌🏼🙏🏼❤️.. Fact..💯‼️
Correct!
I am 53 years. When I cruise around in my new Telluride with this song slappin' at maximum volume, I feel like a MILLION. DAMN. DOLLARS. Thank you, Janet.
A Telluride? Why'd you buy a Korean piece of junk like that for?! Are you aware that Koreans also eat dog meat??
Because Janet and Michael have a lot of the same on mannerism I sometimes feel like I'm watching Michael from the Dirty Diana or Another Part of Me video. It's also because of the outfits. Two amazing sibling performers.
have,,are
saba.love.jen
+Letissia Scott Especially during this time. MJ wore the same pants, shirt and boots and his hair was longer. Couple that with those "looks" and snaps of the head and every other body part, it really is like watching either one of them. Janet brought the house down with her first albums.
+Letissia Scott It also reminds me of Black or White when she fell on her knees
+Letissia Scott I agree, I know in an interview--not sure which of them said it--but they said they often felt like they were in a playful competition together with each other
Black cat
Nine lives
Short days
Long nights
Livin on the edge
Not afraid to die
Heart beat
Real strong
But not
For long
Better watch your step
Or you're gonna die!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love when black folks reclaim rock and roll music! ❤
Especially when they do it right.
Perhaps I'm ignorant, but at what point was it taken from them? Modern "rock n rock" has without a doubt been heavily influenced by the early blues artists that were predominately black, there are a lot of similarities between the two genres. Song structures, chord progression and so on, but they are definitely their two different genres.
Black Cat is a full on Heavy Rock song and that isn't typical associated with black artists. So as far as "reclaiming" rock and roll goes, it was never taken from them. The beauty of music is that people tend to reflect their musical heroes and you can hear it in their music, but that's not the same as taking something from someone. How many black artists can you name from the last century that wrote/performed rock songs like Black Cat?
Janet just took a chance on something different from her norm and wrote a great song that I still love after all these years.
love when people bring racial bs into every fckn topic
Janet should do a rock CD.
"Black cat, nine lives, short days, long nights, livin' on the edge, not afraid to die. Heart beat, real strong. But not, for long, better watch your step, or you're gonna to die."
The Jackson family is just gifted period......this is just flawless...I'm in awe......Janet is just gorgeous in voice, looks and dance moves.....I miss her brother but I'm grateful that Janet still kicks butt
"Rhythm Nation" album is my favorite album of Janet Jackson.I have been grown up listening her & Michael Jackson.I love both of them.✌️&❤ from 🇦🇱🇦🇱
This is my favorite video because I'm in it! :) Right after the guitar solo. I called in sick to work to go to the video shoot at the old Met Center (where the Mall of America currently stands). It was such a fun experience to be there and all the anticipation waiting for the video to come out to see if we had made it in. I did, my friend did not and she was pissed! 😂
awesome!
She should have been a rock star, not a pop star! Damn she was good.
fun fact: This was one of Selena Quintanilla's favorite songs
She is one hot woman
I'm glad someone put this in the comments.
I thought it was “more than words” by Xtreme🤨
If this is true then my heart is breaking
Maybe one of those, but More Than Words by Extreme is her favorite ever.
Holyyy shit. This song was fucking HUGE. Janet is underrated!
This song came out right when the heavy metal bands were very popular. I had liked everything she had done before this but this is when I was “damn Janet look at u girl rocking out”! If I’m not mistaken didn’t tommy Lee play drums on this? She is amazing then and now! No one Can’t touch Miss Jackson’s live performances over the years.
Nuno Bettencourt played the guitars on this in the studio
Written and Produced by Janet Jackson... Don't undermine. Her musical talent..
And Jellybean Johnson
Yes he shared production on this gem, but this was pretty much all Janet she wrote song independently and she wrote guitar line on her own....
Dustin Jackson That's why Janet is a true entertainer
Yes indeed
Joshua McDowell Yep, Jellybean Johnson is responsible for the guitar solo. Everything else was Janet.
Nuno Bettencourt, of Extreme, prominently displaying his lead guitar skills on this video. So very many talented players given free rein to just knock it out of the park in this live set performance. Probably my favorite Video of Janet's with the possible exception of "The Pleasure Principle".
It wasn't the lyrics that got me into this song. It's was her voice and the electric guitars that got to my soul and the fact that its Janet Jackson❤❤I wish she would've did like a whole rock album because she rocked the hell outta this song😎
Yeah she did. Killed it 😁
Nuno Bettencourt from Extreme recorded the guitars in this track.
Nuno did guitar wonder why they didn’t highlight him
Do u know the original guitar solo of this song was played by nuno bettencourt of EXTREME if you all dont believe me look up nuno bettencourt early interviews and hear it from him
She probably wishes that too. It's been said for years that Janet (and to a lesser extent, Michael) would've rather pursued hard rock/metal if left to their own devices. But being part of a pop establishment like the Jackson family your path is somewhat predetermined, especially with Michael and Janet being the youngest.
I love this song, I love the style, and I love the feel. The lyrics are amazing too. Happy 57th Birthday to this amazing and beautiful singer, queen and icon, Janet Jackson! ❤🥳🎉🎊5/16/2023

I wish she'd do a rock album. Cause she can ROCK!
Stiggy333 That would be awesome
+Stiggy333 I always thought when this came out she was going Rock. Sadly, she just got her tongue wet, wishing she'd drank the Rock & started to Roll.
_But this song & performance was a great attempt._

+Stiggy333 This song rocks for sure
SSArt98 yb
Stiggy333 aww:). She do a rock album, baby. It's called The Velvet Rope. If you want listen to it. It's FULL of rock.
I'm a 60 year old white man who grew up on classic rock and in my opinion this is a truly kick ass song !
Guitars & I don't care what color you are...
I got 8 lives left....
& I havent lost a one yet
To bad we can't edit this..
I'm really good @ what I do..
I fuck up the whole nine yards sideways at Least Twice a Day...
This is by far the worst song on the album because of the terrible hair metal guitar.
@@e8ghtmileshigh1 Troll or sarcastic...?
Flight attendants are allowed to carrie now...
Fair Warning
32 years ago today, “Black Cat” by Janet Jackson hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, making her the FIRST artist to achieve two #1s in the 1990s!
The song received a GRAMMY nom for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance & won a BMI Pop Award for Most Played Song!
This song truly deserved its success
July 24, 1990 saw Janet perform this on this tour in Indy's Market Square Arena. Awesome show by a great talent. Ah, the good old days! I remember sitting by a little girl that was lucky enough to get backstage to meet Janet and all she could talk about was how beautiful Janet's hair was.
Janet and Michael could both pull off good rock albums
No better performers in my generation than King Michael and Queen Janet. Oh and their last name is JACKSON damnit!
The Jackson name is blessed
Love Janet's foray into hard rock/metal, surely one of the best songs in the 80s, love it ❤❤❤
slammin guitar on this track
Nuno!
I love the kid at 1:53 wearing a Beat It jacket. Nice little shout-out to her brother who also dabbled in rock.
Lemmy from Motorhead said that he loved this song and wanted to do a version with Janet, but the fucking record company (Sony) wouldn't let him. That would have have intense, Lemmy rasping and growling and Janet singing with him.
I absolutely love that she wrote this all by herself. ❤ What a masterpiece from a queen. 👑
When I was young I loved this song. As I grew up I became a fan of heavy metal. Now I realize that the inner part of me that loves heavy metal connected me with this song, before I had ever even listened to metal.
Congrats to Janet's album RN 1814 for being in the Library of Congress. Iconic.
She reminds me of Joan Jett here with her aggressive vocals and song arrangement 🤘
I always thought this was a Joan Jett song
@candirenee I'm very impressed by your comparison between Joan Jett and Janet Jackson. Here's something for you to think about, could you imagine them teaming up.
It reminds me of Dirty Diana
@@davidhabert Oh, wouldn't that be FABULOUS!?!? YES!
Glad I was able to find Joan Jett from Janet's strong high gravity.
The Jackson siblings are so good at rock between this and "Dirty Diana".
Back then, music videos weren't as nasty and rauchy like nowadays, Janet Jackson had one of the best music videos ever.
Madonna wishes she could put out a kick-ass tune like 'Black Cat'....Janet f-ing rocks this tune!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bill Randolph Bitch Madonna is queen. Janet is no competition.
Phillip Daniel you got it wrong Janet would kick Madonna's ass when it comes down to music and dancing
Alise Thompson Both of them aren't very musical. And Madonna would totally kick ass in dancing. She practices dance moves, old and new, for hours every day and she's 7 years older than Janet.
+Phillip Daniel Janet has proved in the past as well recently in her concerts that she can dance stronger, sharper and smoother even if she's 7 years younger than Madonna. Watching her technical dance routines in her music videos and concert footage is more than enough proof she's way ahead of the rest. Now, don't get me wrong, I was also a huge Madonna fan growing up and still to this day listen to her past work. Janet was and still is a force to be wreckon with when it comes to her dance skills. ,
+Phillip Daniel uh, no. Madonna may have practiced dance moves, ect...but, in her videos, as well as in concert, she has YET to display much of it. Janet trained under THE BEST performer/dancer there ever was, this guy...hmmm, what's his name.....wait for it...MICHAEL JACKSON......get over it...Janet ...not only is superior to Madonna in performing, she also writes many great tunes.....
I was at this concert. I'm was like 15 years and old my family surprised me with these tickets. Yo.... I.... lost my mind. I could not believe I was that close to her & the energy was OFF the chain. What a wonderful woman & time.
Luckily
Don't lie you blew your dad for the tickets. Right
@@corysmithvernon1702 LMAOO
I still remember this video from when I was 8-9 years old & how it awakened something in me, especially at 3:05...the combo of her being a badass & sexy as hell at the same time had me hooked!
One of my favorite songs by janet jackson! Black Cat! 🔥🔥🔥
Nuno Bettencourt is the guitar track you are hearing. Thats why it rules!! Killer riffn' Mr. Bettencourt!
Janet needs to write/record more rock! She can pull it off!
This is where my love of rock came from her and Michael's Dirty Diana let me know it was okay to be a black girl that loved rock!!!!
Oh HECK YEAH!
facts
Rhianna Barr I do to
Rhianna Barr Back in the day when I worked security for a sawmill I would blare Black Cat on the way home to keep me awake coming home from the night watch. some day watches too for that matter. Janet and Meatloaf (yes I have odd tastes in music) kept me awake long enough to make it home and too my bed on many occasions.
No cellular just living in the moment! What you saw is what you got pure talent!
One very famous rock/metal vocalist who absolutely loved this song was Lemmy (god rest his soul) from Motorhead and even wanted to do a duet with Janet. His record company said NO.
Being a heavy rock/metal fan, this would've been amazing.
I was at her concert at the Tacoma Dome when this video was premiered. They showed it right before Janet started her show; they said they had just finished it that day and we were the first people to see it. The place went wild. I love this song so much, I wish she had done more rock songs.
BJMallory congratulations 🎉!! I attended her concert at Joe Louis Arena and I would’ve lost my mind if that happened. You were blessed to experience the video premiere of a classic song. Nevertheless, it was a great concert and I was blessed to be able to attend. I do agree that she should’ve attempted more rock songs but she still can if she wants.
My favourite Janet Jackson song
mine too
Mine also
And one she never gets credit for.
Same here
Love it. Mine too
I play this song every single day. Really I can't get enough of it. Such a powerful, energetic performance
*35 years later and this song is STILL my jam* .
She did it all fully clothed and without shocking lyrics. Just pure talent.
Love that Jehova Witness modesty in them! ❤
@@metamorphicme9378pleaseeeeee, the Janet. Album was right after this
@@zairemoorer9666 and not to mention that at the mtv awards when she performed the song. she ripped off her shirt and showed off them hooters while wearing that bra. a lot of young boys back then had their balls dropped that day.
Clearly you are not a Janet Jackson fan because if you were you would know there was nothing modest about her famous album cover where she’s naked apart from a male model covering her breasts! The whole Damita Jo album, the song ‘Would You Mind’. Please don’t insult her or her true fans.
🙄🙄🙄
I love her dance music, and her more pop songs, but Janet Jackson has a voice for rock n roll - I would love for her to put out an all rock album before she retires.
Janet rocks so hard in this song .
Sensational Superstar!❤❤❤❤❤
Even metal fans love this song! \m/ Rock it Janet! 😘💜
You are not wrong Kevin and believe me I know. I am one 🤘
I was. It was recorded at the Met Center in the Twin Cities in I think 1988. I must have been 13. I was in St.Josephs Home for Children and Janet gave us a bunch of free tickets.Thanks Janet. Your awesome.....
Uh, Rhythm Nation came out in 1989 and the concert tour was in 1990. How is that even possible?
Leo Howler albums are finished sometimes a year before an artist goes on tour
@@krislvzep I'd like you to practice your best reading comprehension of what lance claims and the facts I laid out.
Hope everything worked out for you bro!
Do yourself a favour and turn this WAY UP!!!! Such a powerful arrangement vocally - & groovy, soulful, rocksoul, nuvo metal.
Janet looks so much like brother Michael in this video. The eyes, the smile, the snarl, etc. Both are fantastic dancers, singer, and all around entertainers. Both are spellbinding to watch. Never got to see Michael in concert but I did see Janet and she was absolutely awesome. They are such a talented family.
was it that she looked like him or he started to look like her? he did get a bit of work done.
damn she rock the stage ...she got her fans dancing in all !!!😚😚😚
this song is amazing, it has a huge MJ vibe
+daniel gigs I agree, cool song.
***** a concert video... are you forgetting about actual concerts? are you forgetting MJs performance style?
daniel gigs right,this video literally screams dirty diana. MJ's in the closet has a janet vibe too,they were obviously inspired by each other!

Rhythm Nation was a great album.
It still is Peter.
I am 42 and I could literally overdose on nostalgia. The 90's was the last decade where there was still an innocence to life. They had the best movies, tv, and music. I sometimes sit and just close my eyes and go back to this time on my mind...just immersing myself in all the memories. I cry a lot just yearning for those days that I can never get back. The world is such a 💩show today and I just wish I could be a kid again. Just wanting to relive all those precious times 😢. I thank God for UA-cam...one of the only online platforms I really look at. Long live the 90's !!!! 👍👍👍💜💜💜

Ha! Wait til you're 55 and everyone has tired of you and moved along. 😢

Well don't let anyone tell you you're depressed and put you on other symptom causing drugs!
I won't say chin up and cheer up either. That can cause making stupid mistakes in trying to find happiness like I've done.
No easy answers 😔😔
