OK track but not the best Janet Jackson track. From the 2001 album alone, this wins by default as Janet would so go downhill. This got a lot of play on top 40 radio (B96, 103.5 KISS which was in its first year of existence). Don't think the urban stations here played it as may had been too "poppy".

20 years ago today, "All for You" became Janet Jackson's 10th No.1 hit as the lead single from her 7th album of the same name topped Billboard's Hot 100 chart, starting a 7-week run at the top. The song also reached No.1 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, the Dance Club Songs chart, and the Mainstream Top 40 chart. "All for You" was awarded with the Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording in 2002. The song heavily samples "The Glow of Love" by Change and l love it. But I far prefer the Video Mix with the dance breakdown than the Radio Edit on the CD single.

This one has never done much for me, though I'm not sure why. I usually love her 'happy' bops (Escapade, Because of You, etc).

Stereogum gives "All For You" a 7/10. I disagree. It's a 10/10. This ending had me in tears. I love the affection for Janet that the writer has demonstrated through all 10 of her #1's. "By this point, people hopefully understand Janet Jackson’s entire context a little better. Janet is, quite simply, one of the greatest pop stars of all time. She navigated a period of tremendous music-business change with absolute grace, pushing things forward without making too big of a show out of it. She put on thrilling performances, and she made bangers. Her catalog can hang with that of anyone else, including her older brother. Also, Janet Jackson is still around, still working. I don’t expect her to crash her way back into the upper reaches of the pop charts anytime soon, but if she does, I will be delighted to see it happen. Nobody deserves pop-chart success. It’s not a meritocracy, and it never has been. But if any former pop star deserves to come back to mass adulation, it’s Janet Jackson."

I think it was the one of the first singles I bought in 2001. I loved this song.
