what an amazing underrated under-appreciated masterpiece :jonnycat:

picking a top 3 would be nearly impossible but I hope we get the bonus tracks on streaming finally, Put Your Hands On is a career highlight

All Nite (Don't Stop)

Strawberry Bounce

Island Life

 

But low-key every song slaps. It a shame the album never got the flowers it deserves.

I don't know why Could This Be Love wasn't included when it's like top ten on the album.

Praying we get an anniversary edition this week with this bop!!! 
 

OT: Her third best album after The Velvet Rope and self titled!

 

My favorites:

Island Life

Moist

Warmth

All Nite (Don't Stop) [Britney's Song]

Put Your Hands On
Slo Love

Strawberry Bounce

R&B Junkie

 

…the amount nostalgia I feel when I listen to the Kanye-assisted 'My Baby'… it sounds exactly what you'd expect a 2004 Janet/Kanye collab to sound like.

These are both A+ - one thing she did was nailed the singles :jonnycat:

I can't come up with a ranked list, but "Strawberry Bounce" is a no-brainer for number one. :alexz:

Moist, I Want You, All Nite, Island Life >>>>>>>

An album

 

It is in my Janet trinity along with janet. and The Velvet Rope. I love that the album just commits to being a concept album about relaxing on the beach, feeling sexy and having fun. That's the vibe and it fully embraces it. I listen to the album pretty often and it especially sounds good on vacation.

 

Hopefully there's a digital deluxe and vinyl repress for the anniversary.

 

My favourites would be:

Sexhibition

Spending Time With You

Island Life

All Nite (Don't Stop)

R&B Junkie

Like You Don't Love Me

SloLove

and Put Your Hands On.

 

I agree with the OP that Could This Be Love is pretty great and deserved a spot on the album, especially over the stain that is Thinkin' About My Ex :rip: (and to make things worse, why that track is placed between Like You Don't Love Me and Warmth? :rip:). Pops Off is another fun outtake.

 

The entire album is really strong apart from Thinkin' About My Ex.

 

Also, Put Your Hands On is on streaming if anyone was looking for it:

and on CD via the All Nite Don't Stop single.

 

And this video is easily one of her best:

Just a Little While is up there for me as my fav Janet lead single while Moist and Slo Love are some of my fav songs from JANET period

 

Spending Time With You, Island Life, I Want You, and Thinkin' Bout My Ex are also my favs from the album.

 

 

I was hoping Janet had something up her sleeve for the 20th anniversary though :'))

I used to pay this dust in my early days as a janet stan but it's…. really great? Had the super bowl incident not happened, it would've been so much more successful and R&B Junkie would've went #1!!!!!! FOR MULTIPLE WEEKS
