When I first saw this performance.. I could not believe my ears. One of the most beautiful performances by Janet ever... I have searched for this particular performance forever. Thank you so much for posting!! She is such a beauty -both inside and out... in voice, song & dance. Love U J.
Yes yes Yes, This performance DEFINITELY proves my love can sing live. Her voice has a beautiful tone, and she has a hell of a bravado. I love you Janet!!
WOW. Janet did the damn thing here. She worked this song perfectly. I love the whole Velvet Rope Era look - it really flattered Janet. And LOL at the applause at the end. The audience was like "we didn't know she could sing for real like that!"
alot of people think janet isnt much of a singer but this performance proves she is great singer. She has amazing tone and range. She's amazing!!! And looks gorgeous as always!
DAMN! I don't think have seen this since it aired on TV. This was a rare treat to see Janet like this. I miss THIS Janet...so beautiful and actually singing! I'm thinking this is the best vocal performance I've seen and heard from her...and one of the best performances she has ever done!
I rember this clip when it aired....And I 've been searching for this for a while. Thanks for posting. This is proff for anyone who thinks Janets talent is not legit!!!
this is one of my fave performances of janet, just her, the piano, and her backup singers, i dont know why people said she couldnt sing, she isnt just an entertainer
she needs to do more performances like this to prove she really can sing....cuz honestly, i'm a huge fan, but i questioned her singing talents....'till i saw this anyway :-)
You know I never thought she was a great singer and she's like not a saaanger, but Janet is so much better than the pop stars of today. That was a very emotional and soulful performance of my favorite Janet song. Her voice complements that song beautifully.
janet needs to do more performances like this when she's promoting herself and hr music. we know that she can dance her ass off, so instead of prancing all around the place all the time she needs to do more of this and save the prancing and dancing for the big concerts and shows. Imagine sitting on Jay or David doing stuff like this.WOW
this video really shows off her vocal people think she cant sing but she can she jus like 2 dance an its hard 2 sing an dance an stay on key so u lip synk
What a soft angelic voice - Love her and love this song! I tried singing this song while playing the piano - please check it out and let me know what you think!
Janet sang her ass for this performance. She really does have a beautiful voice...a voice best presented on Jam & Lewis tracks. No offense to Jermaine but he can't capture it the way they can. The Velvet Rope was Janet's last great album though...
ya'll don't understand how shocked i am right now..for the longest i loved janet jackson, but i always said she can't really sing...but she is a good performer..her voice is amazing here..she doin riffs and everything...im really shocked
i agree totally a lot of people like to compare her to beyonce and it's like why are u comparing the two they arent the same at all. yes beyonce is the better singer but she is also a differenty type of singer different ranges and they both sound totally different plus fo course if there was no janet there would be not beyonce a lot of people overlook that because beyonce is hot right now but janet is back and so is whitney so we will see if she can keep up. she can sing she's not britney
U bettr preach - JANET is my #1 lady FOREVER, she will get ovr ths mess tht Timberfake put her thru (her movie will do well too) .. cnt wait til she comes bak out on the music scene..
Yep, Just cause she doesn't belt out songs like Patti LaBelle and others, Ms. Jackson does have a voice and a sound all her own. Yes, Ms Thang can sing.
I knw, its soo sadd & although I luv Jstns music, I dnt care 4 him as a man, he totally let Janet out 2 dry wen all tht wnt dwn, BUT FRIDAY BABY!--my girl gna tear up the screen, u saw her on Oprah (sch a beautiful woman!)
well, when every song sounds like her whispering, u can't blame me.....i'm not hating, i'm just saying....i'm still a fan....i even have the same tattoo on my wrist that she does on her wrist.... soooo.....have a good day lollll !!
This is PROOF that Janet can sing, there is NO playback (Track) on this she is live. Beautiful performance.
Get it Janet! I remember I rushed home from school to catch this and was in tears at the end of this performance. Brilliantly done Janet!!!!
When I first saw this performance.. I could not believe my ears. One of the most beautiful performances by Janet ever... I have searched for this particular performance forever. Thank you so much for posting!! She is such a beauty -both inside and out... in voice, song & dance. Love U J.
JANET CAN SING And I Wish That She Would Do An Unplugged Show
Beautiful. Best female performer ever. Love her.
Yes yes Yes, This performance DEFINITELY proves my love can sing live. Her voice has a beautiful tone, and she has a hell of a bravado. I love you Janet!!
This piece is just lovely and always touches the soul
Casandra Levine Yesssssss!!!!! She Is Vocally Going In Just Right!!!!!
I love this video. This should put an end to the haters! Yes, JANET CAN SING!
If you're such a big fan, you would have known that she can sing..
Simply beautiful.
WOW. Janet did the damn thing here. She worked this song perfectly. I love the whole Velvet Rope Era look - it really flattered Janet. And LOL at the applause at the end. The audience was like "we didn't know she could sing for real like that!"

Janet and James "Big Jim" Wright (from the Sounds of Blackness) on keyboards.
They are both super fabulous
Janet at her best! Love this song and performance.
I agree! She should do it for her next album, it will def get her a lot of attention and show the world she can sing for real!
Janet's voice is very beautiful and pretty strong, if people would only stop just seeing her as just a performer, they will see she can really SING!!!
I rember this clip when it aired....And I 've been searching for this for a while. Thanks for posting. This is proff for anyone who thinks Janets talent is not legit!!!

The Velvet Rope was Janet's last great album though...
Actually there's All for you, damita
Discipline could have been a cult classic if it was promoted right.
Yes... underated and still my favorite album if hers.
Janet has always had a great voice, she just doesn't use it a lot, but she CAN sing for sure!!!

U bettr preach - JANET is my #1 lady FOREVER, she will get ovr ths mess tht Timberfake put her thru (her movie will do well too) .. cnt wait til she comes bak out on the music scene..
She did this performance justice. All haters sit down
Janet has a nice tone to her voice. If everyone sang like Whitney or Aretha that would be boring. GO JANET!
I'm sorry, but this is a great performance; simple and soulful.
i love j jack u kno me an janet inside joke lol love ya boo
Ok, she CAN sing, don't hate haters
it's called Sankofa ...look it up on google images, it should come up :-)
Yep, Just cause she doesn't belt out songs like Patti LaBelle and others, Ms. Jackson does have a voice and a sound all her own. Yes, Ms Thang can sing.
SEXY+SOULFUL+SONGBIRD=The QUEEN: JANET
Fuckin' agree!!!
Hey there! I loved this song so much I tried to sing it myself while playing the piano - please let me know what you think!

Where's the interview portion of this show?? Can you upload it?
does anyone have the mp3 to this? i would love to have it!!!! please
It doesn't play the whole video. Fix It!
QUEEN!!!!! and she cant ?
I thought it was WHY did i get married. If you are going to support your diva you cant be messing up like that. LOL. good points though.
I don't know who that is but its not Jimmy Jam
bobby38 Big Jim Wright.
you sure it doesn't work? I just watched the whole thing again..
JD didn't do Enjoy
So? He needs to Produce and not back-up (perhaps).
yeah i could do without jimmy jam on some of those backing parts...especially the bridge...
It's not Jam, but his name is Jim. LOL!
Dude you are so like joking right?
than move along.. aint nothing wrong with her..
well, when every song sounds like her whispering, u can't blame me.....i'm not hating, i'm just saying....i'm still a fan....i even have the same tattoo on my wrist that she does on her wrist.... soooo.....have a good day lollll !!
This is her best live vocal perfomance! She should have won the Grammy for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance that year, isteadd of Lauryn Hill.
