Janet has been glowing so much in all these recent photos. I feel like she's finally achieved everything and is just enjoying life however she wants. It's so great to see.

Control album is at #20. Would have added TVR and Rhythm Nation on there too.

Also YES!!!!!!!!! @ Janelle Monae at #12 and Electra Heart making the list

Thoughts on the likelihood of a 30th Anniversary edition of the janet. album next year?
Her official website is promoting the 25th Anniversary of TVR, so maybe she finally worked something out with Universal.

I remember seeing it in theaters when it came out. It was good.

Upon further thought since my initial post, I would actually like the maxi singles to be issued digital and/or janet. remixed

I love the love that this amazing album - and her discography as a whole - is getting! I feel like there is a resurgence in appreciation of her music and I am so grateful to see it. She deserves all her flowers. Talent does win in the end. f**k you, Les Moonves.
Interestingly, for the first time since I've started tracking, she has her 80's, 90's and 00's material represented among her top 10 Spotify songs.
The Velvet Rope is starving to be rediscovered.

I remember sooooooo many teen pop stars around the turn of the millennium mentioning TVR as one of their favorite albums. Even the members of the A*Teens talked about it.

Yeah, I bought that for the videos. They crammed quite a bit on one DVD so some of them are pretty cruddy in terms of quality. But overall it's a nice collection.

Ling, how bad is the quality of the videos? As bad as showing somewhat pixelated sometimes or just not HQ?

There are several that look a tad blurry or pixelated though. And keep in mind, most of her vids were filmed 4:3 ratio. And they haven't been adjusted for wide screen TVs. Which is good, because you can lose footage/quality that way. But just wanted to give a heads up, because the bars on the side throw people off.

Taylor Swift references Janet and βAll For Youβ on βSnow on the Beachβ. Janet responded on Instagram.
Queens respecting queens.
Also, I hope some Swifties discover AFY - the song and album. The song is nearing 100M streams but deserves 1B.

Madonna doesn't want to acknowledge it, but this cover helped pave the way for many women after her:

I'm back on Spotify b/c of my strange YouTube suspension and I beefed up this playlist I made 9 years ago. The track sequencing is mirrored from the original Design of a Decade
