This has always been a one of my low-key favorite janet. tracks. It's reminds me of a few Sade songs that you can just simply relax to. It was never single material but it's a standout for sure.

This wasn't one of my favorites from the album initially, but I've really grown to like it over the past few years. On another note, when Justin Timberlake's "Suit & Tie" came out, I remember some people comparing the melodies and harmonies in it to Janet Jackson, and this is one of the songs I definitely hear it in.

I've always enjoyed this and the Bossa Nova feel. I could see Robin Thicke doing a cover to this since a lot of his material takes from the exact same influences.
It's not a weak song imo, but it's not one that warrants being this long, which is a byproduct of it being made when album lengths being longer was a new thing. An edit down to 4:00-4:20 would make this come across as stronger.

I like it just fine, but it's one of my least favorites on the album.

I think this is very underrated and always preferred it over Anytime, Anyplace.

Not one of my favorites on the album, but with an album this solid, that still means it's good. I really like the slinky Bossa Nova vibe. And I love the length, that's something I miss from R&B albums in the 80's, they weren't afraid to let the beat and the production ride out.

so sensual. Unpopular opinion but one of my very favorite on the album. The background vocals towards the end of the song make me melt.

Mines too. I'm in LOVE with this song...always have been and always will be! It had a little latin vibe going on. |
