Save a couple songs (including Say You Do and Young Love), her pre-Control music was HORRID. Also, those old songs are WAY too long. Wow. Who the hell wants to listen to that mess for 5 or more minutes?! I can barely sit through 30 seconds of most of them. Anyway...submitted!! The Top 20 was HARD AS f**k! Lol I was listening to the first 10 songs last night and had the same reaction! Like why the hell these are 5+ minutes songs?! I wanted to be fair and listen to the entire songs so I did overlap/ faded one song into another.

Just finished, man I like every song on this list so I'm not even satisfied with the rankings Soooooo many of these I love equally.
My #1 is probably not gonna do so well, but it's a major love from me and one of her earliest not so successful jams

Sorry I missed the deadline, my terrible time management didn't allow for time to listen to the unknown songs enough. Looking forward to the reveal though!

Yay Mama Janet has kicked off! And off to a good start. This isn't really terrible, none of her stuff is actually, but it's just not good.

There are some tracks I jam to on her first two albums, especially Dream Street, but this is not at all one of them.

This was one of the songs I hadn't heard before - the first listen really made me think about MJ's Ben for some reason. There was something about part of the melody and her voice.

Not surprised this is here - a weak-ass attempt to launch Dream Street in the UK with the enduring Cliff Richard.
It goes to show using star power does not always a hit album make. (Cliff Richard, Michael, and Giorgio Moroder)

1. The lyrics are cheesy as all Disney/Fame hell. 2. Cliff Richard is a smooth 25+ years older than Janet and it just made me side-eye the whole thing.

Perfect bottom two. The lyrics to both of these are just bad, but the songwriting on Two to the Power of Love is especially wtf.

While the first two tracks were predictably from the early '80s, if you thought we were going to keep it right there for the next reveal, you would be mistaken. I'm pulling you back to a song that's a bit more recent.
