I still do it everytime I hear it. Okay, in my head mostly, but I still remember it all. Janet was on fire. My favorite Janet video, and one of my favorites of all time.
There is also an interview with Barry Lather where he explains why they edited it the way that they did. There was a crash mat on the floor due to how high up she was and it wouldn't look right. Plus the slow motion added to the mystery of it.
I absolutely love your reaction to this video. First let's be clear Janet is and will always be THE QUEEN OF DANCE. All these dancing chicks from Beyonce, J-Lo, Ciara, Britney Spears, Normani, Teyana Taylor, and Aaliyah have all said Janet has always been their inspiration. This is the video that put the stamp on being the Queen Of Dance. Like you said Janet don't need backup dancers she can do it all on her own and be even more captivating. Please continue to do more Janet. Try "I Get Lonely", "Control", "Miss You Much", "Rhythm Nation", "Alright", "Feedback", "No Sleep", "Doesn't Really Matter." I could go on and on because she has so many hits. Keep up the good reactions. One Love!
Janet Jackson is criminally underrated. Globally she was bigger than Prince or Madonna, but her influence goes uncredited. A lot of Bollywood dancing was inspired by 80s Janet & of course, MJ.
@@bryanstarke2931 Hey Bryan!! Great to hear from ya! Shows how much I'm paying attention! Funny you said that because you can see by my 🔥 it's the other two I really want him to do anyway! 🤣
@@jennhurl Hey Jennifer 🙂 yeah, she's got a lot of good songs that he still needs to get through. He's already done my favorite tho, 'Love Will Never Do'. Great song and IMO she never looked better 😍
My favorite video of all time ❤️❤️❤️ Just Janet, painted on jeans, a fierce beat, unmatched choreography (she is still the ONLY person that can do that chest roll!!) and a backflip… the things legends are made of. Janet inspired so many. I can’t tell you how many times as a young girl I tried to learn this routine…😩😩 Not one of these “artists” 😒 out today with all the T and A they show every time they get an itch… comes close to this. Brilliant ❤️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😍
Janet Jackson's whole Control album was 🔥..her singing and dance moves from here on out were reminiscent of her brother..but she made it her own and Worked It!...Which is why she will always and forever be a Legend in her own right.. away from Michael..she earned it!!!
This is her raw and just going in, but she has soooo many creative videos and hard hitting songs. She is a legend and icon and stands in noone's shadow. She paved the way and kicked open the doors for a whole lot of black female pop stars for the past several decades. And her first 2 albums are underrated but she had some jams on them too. But Control was when the formula was perfected. There was no stopping the Janet bullet train of hits after that.
Oh how she set the trend with this video! Many girls, myself included, tried to copy this look... relaxed hair, bolero jean jacket and THOSE WRESTLING BOOTS. Yes, indeed. She really grooved the heck out of this song!
they don't look like boots or high tops, they look like low tops. But I remember people used to wear the hightop Adidas - they looked like boxer shoes or wrestling lol
I truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this Janet Jackson music video. Your facial expressions said so much!!! Janet Jackson is an incredible music artist/entertainer!!!! What a dancer!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I was in my late teens when this came out and I lost my mind! Even to this day.. If anyone asks what is my favorite Janet video.. Hands down it's this one! Watching this now I STILL have goosebumps!
Janet had 2 albums with her father that didn't do very well then she got her freedom and came out with Control. Prince wrote What Have You Done For Me Lately & gave it to her producers, Jam & Lewis where were in his group The Time. She lit it up! She is still very much loved by millions & proved that her career was not due to Michael's. She inspired so many female artists and is still Amazing now in her 50's. She was also years ago the first female artist to obtain a multi-album $80M deal.
This song, Rhythm Nation, If and Miss You Much are my favorite videos for choreography from her. She’s super cute in Miss You Much. I think you’d like that.
LAWD,,,,,What memories when this came out......this whole album was the BOMB!!!! JJ is and will always be THE star......Others have tried to match her and can't come close.....MUSIK MAGIK!!!!
I think people today looking back at the '80s often overlook Janet Jackson. And even back then, she was frequently overshadowed by her brother Michael. But she had some awesome hits in the '80s and '90s. I listened to her entire Rhythm Nation 1814 album just the other day and it is still a banger.
I haven't seen this in so long, I forgot how incredible it was! Everything... her singing, her dancing, the choreography, she is truly one of the biggest talents of our time!
this came out when i was a teenager-i wanted to look like her sound like her have her hair- her clothes even that warehouse she was in lol!!! best line ever " thank you for the ride..nowhere!"
I adore this song of Janet. I always wanted to look, sing and dance like her especially in this video. Her songs Black Cat, If, What have you done for me lately, Nasty, all such amazing dance songs! I loved her look back then - thought she was so beautiful ❤️
She DID the backflip. Dominic Sena edited it that way cuz 1. That's his style to do alot of clipping. 2. There was a crash mat on the floor due to how high up she was. But she also did a backflip in Nasty and also the 1987 Grammys. She had a spotter cuz she had high heels...but YES...she did in fact do the BACKFLIP.
That IS the blueprint right there. This video inspired for generations. So many legendary videos. I would reco ALL NITE (DON'T STOP), ALL FOR YOU, DOESN'T REALLY MATTER......
I never knew this was Janet Jackson and I've been listening to the Friday Night Posse remix of this for about 30 years. It's called "Airwave Pleasure" for anyone that's interested :)
Yep. She is amazing. Hate her or love her but it is undeniable that she is a bad azz performer. Definitely the greatest female performer of our time. Many of todays artist are compared to her and Michael but when they was on the scene, they wasn't compared to anyone because they were the first of there kind. Now it is hard to be original because Janet, Michael, Madonna and Prince has done it all.
Keep it coming! More Janet!! “Alright” (fantastic video as well), “Escapade,” “You Want This,” “Again,” you really can’t go wrong picking anything from her catalog.
@7:38 that side kick, step to the side and then quickly bring it back to get into a mini "wop" dance.....my favorite part of her choreography in this video!
This was always my favorite song from her. I remember this video being new! She's the only singer I can put on and not get sick of. I loved all her hits, except Black Cat. She has the best greatest hits. I saw her in concert 4 years ago and it was my fav concert because she knows her audience. She did all her hits and no new music. Loved it. She's the best.
Her energy is ALWAYS contagious she gets me moving!!! I love pretty much anything Janet!!! Jay I love your reactions and always get a dance partner when watching your videos lol. She is so talented. "She has me" lol she gets us all...love her!
A gorgeous, overly talented young woman. Singer, song writer, dancer and choreographer by 18 years old. There will never be another Janet. How did America express our pride and enjoy her as an icon? We threw her under the proverbial bus and blamed her for indecent exposure at the Super Bowl. Music executives ignored Janet like the plague. If Ms. Jackson was labeled promiscuous what the heck title did Madonna win?
Janet had to prove herself, especially when she had the mega superstar named Michael as a brother.she was a child actor in the late 70s, and started making waves in the early 80s. The mid 80s(which is when this came out) showed what she was capable off. The whole Control album and Rhythm Nation album set the foundation. The Janet album in the early 90s solidified her as a superstar almost on the same day as Michael.
Somebody is big time crushing on Janet Jackson, and who can blame you. Janet is really hot in this one, and that choreography has Paula Abdul written all over it. Thanks for this great throw back song & video. Loved your reaction!
I remember when this video came out. She had already had a bunch of musical success, but I think she made this video to prove she was as good a dancer as Michael.
A warehouse, a mic stand, a chair……….that’s all Ms Jackson needs and you end up with a legendary video.❤️
And...a speaker that you do a backflip off of. Can't forget that
facts
Janet is a CLASS ACT! She is every bit the performer that her brother was. Triple threat ( Singer, Actress and Dancer )
and songwriter.
@@Rosyid2040 and producer
#Facts
💯
Janet's catalog is simply the best collection of pop and R&B. As global as she became, she is still underrated.
Facts
Very underrated, but still legendary!
My friends and I would all get together in someone's living room & practice doing the choreography with Janet. 🤣 The good ole days!
Yep, ditto ! We did, too !!!
Same! XD
I did the same thing. 😄
I still do it everytime I hear it. Okay, in my head mostly, but I still remember it all. Janet was on fire. My favorite Janet video, and one of my favorites of all time.
@@shortblockflexinit5219 saw here in 87 in Sacratomato! Lol
Yes she really did a backflip off… she was mad the way it was edited making it look like she really didn’t do it
I saw the the interview where she said she really did the back flip. Crazy how talented she is.
@@m.g.3842 what interview is it
There is also an interview with Barry Lather where he explains why they edited it the way that they did. There was a crash mat on the floor due to how high up she was and it wouldn't look right. Plus the slow motion added to the mystery of it.
You're not bias. She really is the best.

Yes!!! And Janet has class and talent.
Check out Janet's "Black Cat". A furious piece of hard rock with a funky twist.
Janet is a BOSS. I was maybe 8 or 9 and I remember everybody in my class saying the “ohh ohh ohhhhhh” part lol!!
She may not get the love now... but trust me on this, Janet Jackson was huge in the 80's.
Janet still getting love
agree she still get love. However. I t was more late 80s into the 90s
People always mention the back flip but she slides down so effortlessly into a split right after 😍
Janet Jackson's whole Control album was 🔥..her singing and dance moves from here on out were reminiscent of her brother..but she made it her own and Worked It!...Which is why she will always and forever be a Legend in her own right.. away from Michael..she earned it!!!
Someone has a definite crush 🥰
Your face when she did that BACKFLIP TO THE SPLIT..PRICELESS!!!
Im watching this reaction again.
PLEASE LIKE THIS..
JANET. NEEDS TO SEE THIS!!!
One of the most influential music videos of all time. And yes, she did do the back flip.
This is her raw and just going in, but she has soooo many creative videos and hard hitting songs. She is a legend and icon and stands in noone's shadow. She paved the way and kicked open the doors for a whole lot of black female pop stars for the past several decades.
And her first 2 albums are underrated but she had some jams on them too.
But Control was when the formula was perfected. There was no stopping the Janet bullet train of hits after that.
I was just listening to"IF" when I got this notification
She rocked those jeans harder than anyone before or since!
My all time favorite Janet vid.
my favorite video period!
I just have to add....I am living for Jay's reaction to Janet's back flip and split😂!!! I feel the same Jay!!! lol
Oh how she set the trend with this video! Many girls, myself included, tried to copy this look... relaxed hair, bolero jean jacket and THOSE WRESTLING BOOTS. Yes, indeed. She really grooved the heck out of this song!
they don't look like boots or high tops, they look like low tops. But I remember people used to wear the hightop Adidas - they looked like boxer shoes or wrestling lol
Those shoes looked like Adidas or something similar.
@@dalee72 they are Adidas
@@deesee3622 I thought so. 😎 😘
Low tops with knee pads
I truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this Janet Jackson music video. Your facial expressions said so much!!! Janet Jackson is an incredible music artist/entertainer!!!! What a dancer!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I was like 10 when this came out. This brings me back to the day so much. Makes me miss the old days so much. I loved the 80’s and 90’s so much!!
This video and looking at her dance in them guess jeans made me fall in love with her
“Thank you for the ride nowhere” favorite line in this song. Love Janet! Iconic video.
💖✨💖✨💖✨💖
Janet Jackson can not do any wrong.Love her moves her voice she's beautiful sweet and a good actor.💛
I was in my late teens when this came out and I lost my mind! Even to this day.. If anyone asks what is my favorite Janet video.. Hands down it's this one! Watching this now I STILL have goosebumps!
So many of us try, hilariously, to do the choreography every time we hear this song. For decades I have been trying.
Same. Lol
Many a kid busted their behinds trying to do that chair move!
I’d be hard pressed to pick a favorite from Miss Jackson, but this one is in my top 10!!❤️ I’m mesmerized too my friend. 😘
Janet had 2 albums with her father that didn't do very well then she got her freedom and came out with Control. Prince wrote What Have You Done For Me Lately & gave it to her producers, Jam & Lewis where were in his group The Time. She lit it up!

She was also years ago the first female artist to obtain a multi-album $80M deal.
This was a club/party/cruising MUST. We all loved us some Ms Jackson.
This video was the reason every girl bought black Guess jeans…including me
This song, Rhythm Nation, If and Miss You Much are my favorite videos for choreography from her. She’s super cute in Miss You Much. I think you’d like that.
LAWD,,,,,What memories when this came out......this whole album was the BOMB!!!! JJ is and will always be THE star......Others have tried to match her and can't come close.....MUSIK MAGIK!!!!

It is so cute they way you get that little smile on your face when you watch Janet...she is stunning, can't blame you.
Dancing to this in the clubs was so much fun back in the day! 80s memories!’Janet ruled.
Classic JANET !
I haven't seen this in so long, I forgot how incredible it was! Everything... her singing, her dancing, the choreography, she is truly one of the biggest talents of our time!
this came out when i was a teenager-i wanted to look like her sound like her have her hair- her clothes even that warehouse she was in lol!!! best line ever " thank you for the ride..nowhere!"
This is when Janet was at the absolute peak of her hotness!
If is not too far behind. Because of love, Anytime Anyplace. She had many peaks.
Once of the most influential and iconic music videos of all time. Janet is a treasure
I adore this song of Janet. I always wanted to look, sing and dance like her especially in this video. Her songs Black Cat, If, What have you done for me lately, Nasty, all such amazing dance songs! I loved her look back then - thought she was so beautiful ❤️

You’re not biased. I love to watch her videos. Her voice and the choreography always put a smile on my face she’s so good.
Try Janet Jackson- Feedback. You'll really like it!
One of my favorite videos. I love her dancing,and her look.
Keep it coming! More Janet!! “Alright” (fantastic video as well), “Escapade,” “You Want This,” “Again,” you really can’t go wrong picking anything from her catalog.
You need to watch her perform this live on her Rhythm Nation tour. Just as great!
Yes. Google the Tokyo Dome version. She even recreated the bridge scene.
All time favorite Janet video she's such a badass in this one!
She could dance....all her own choreography..great times, great period for music. Her and MJ had the airwaves in their palms.
You said it perfectly…”Talent on display”
@7:38 that side kick, step to the side and then quickly bring it back to get into a mini "wop" dance.....my favorite part of her choreography in this video!
Yes. My favorite part. If you look real close she literally kicked up dust that's how hard she was dancing.
This album takes me right back to my youth......best time of my life!!!
This was always my favorite song from her. I remember this video being new! She's the only singer I can put on and not get sick of. I loved all her hits, except Black Cat.

Jay react to "Come back to me"! It's a ballad and it really showcases her voice.
Love Janet... great songs, amazing dancing....

Her energy is ALWAYS contagious she gets me moving!!! I love pretty much anything Janet!!! Jay I love your reactions and always get a dance partner when watching your videos lol. She is so talented. "She has me" lol she gets us all...love her!
Seeing this as a child in the 80s I was like she can just do anything!!! Amazing performer!!!!
Miss Jackson is in CONTROL
After all of these years, I can’t believe how great this song in video still are!
A gorgeous, overly talented young woman. Singer, song writer, dancer and choreographer by 18 years old. There will never be another Janet. How did America express our pride and enjoy her as an icon? We threw her under the proverbial bus and blamed her for indecent exposure at the Super Bowl. Music executives ignored Janet like the plague. If Ms. Jackson was labeled promiscuous what the heck title did Madonna win?
Yep. Not to mention J"s 86 Control album's sound and subject matter inspired Madonna's 86 True Blue album!!
Always loved Janet! My faves by her have always been When I Think Of You, Escapade, and Black Cat! Keep On Rockin'
“That’s The Way Love Goes” & “Black Cat”
As a kid blessed to see her and Mike live, the cat was real 😄😄😄 GOD is great💝💝
Janet had to prove herself, especially when she had the mega superstar named Michael as a brother.she was a child actor in the late 70s, and started making waves in the early 80s.

Pleasure Principle is for sure my top 5 Janet. The whole song and video is a vibe 🔥
I love Janet Jackson ❤❤❤❤ans Michael too of course and Prince 💜💜💜
The choreography is signed Paula Abdul😉😉❤
Barry Mather was the choreographer
@@BrenJen86 Paula Abdul choreographed for Janet too.
@@suzanne1430 yes I know this. She didn’t choreograph The Pleasure Principle though.
That chair move bruh! 🔥🔥🔥 . Please react to "Love Will Never Do Without You" to see Janet in another beautiful light.
Somebody is big time crushing on Janet Jackson, and who can blame you. Janet is really hot in this one, and that choreography has Paula Abdul written all over it. Thanks for this great throw back song & video. Loved your reaction!
This is my favorite of hers. I still remember the dance steps. 💃🏼
Watch the video when Janet pulled a fan on stage and set him down and danced on him...he was almost crying...I thought he was going to pass out. Lol
Greay job J. 😁👍
Janet does that! She mesmerizes you! It's just too much!!! She is the QUEEN!!
I remember when this video came out. She had already had a bunch of musical success, but I think she made this video to prove she was as good a dancer as Michael.
Janet Jackson x Daddy Yankee-Made For Now
This is my favorite Janet Jackson song!
"Rhythm Nation" was probably her best album.
"When I think of You". Another one.
My favorite Janet song & video! It has mesmerized me since I was 10!
You should see how men are mesmerized by Janet in her live version of Would You Mind!!!!
One of my favourite from my girl Janet Jackson
This is my all time favorite video!💯 It's her by herself. Raw Janet! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
