I don't see why people always try to hate on her cheekbones...she has had defined high cheekbones all her life...she was only 16 here and beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
LOL...Janet had like 4 dance moves here. Pretty adorable. ..LOL..But, man oh man, did she eat the mid 1980's and the entire 1990's alive with her awesome musical talent and dancing skills!
The first Janet album and dream street were and are still wildly underrated albums. Of course it was a different era and Janet wasn't singing her truth but she still made it work with her talent. Those two albums helped me trough some tough times and each song on the albums hold a special place in my heart. :)
It's because videos had not come into play at that time. Once Control came along with its videos, all were able to see that not only could she sing, but that she was also a very talented dancer as well
I hadn't seen this clip since 1983, and it was the 1st time I had seen Janet Jackson perform. I was 13 or 14 at the time, and was enthralled by her with this performance. The first single of hers I found was Come Give Your Love To Me when visiting my cousin up in the summer of 1983, and I still have it. My uncle had a jukebox in their wreckroom and he let me put it in it and I listened to it constantly until I bought her first album at the local Kmart in my home town of 6,000 people in northern Iowa. My first celebrity crush since Cher when I was 4 or 5 watching Sonny and Cher on tv.
@MonsterD225 Bobby wouldn’t have Been able to hold that in if it were true, he’s broke and desperately needing money, stories about Janet get you paid. He wishes she would claim him especially after Jermaine Dupree but she don’t do crackheads especially after her marriage to James Debarge. He was hooked on drugs too.
So this how music shows was back in the day this is so cool to see the host introduction was literally during the middle of the performance then they went back to the performance that was so cool i never seen anything like that 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Janet & The Solid Gold Dancers are just Sick!!!! This was Everything!!!! Janet is about 5'2" but She commanded that stage and it didn't hurt having The SG dancers just "Rocking Slow" but keeping that beat..
I love seeing her first two eras. It just shows how hard work pays off and perfecting your craft takes time. Once she did it her way everything fell into place
I remember all these performances and being so young. So many people believed in Janet and supported her career. She had die hard fans even during this phase of her career. From the first 2 albums to control, you could tell the label didn't know what to do with her. And then came Flyte Tyme Productions producing control and it was a wrap.
True...but the her music was just one part of it. The other big part of how she blew up was her image makeover and Paula Abdul's choreography. She transitioned from cute little Janet to bad-ass Janet on Control. Before that the label didn't really know how to promote her because she hadn't yet developed her style. In these early days, most people didn't think of her as Janet; they thought of her as Michael's baby sister. She always looked so happy and confident since her early days. Was hard to believe the stories she would later tell abut her struggles with depression and insecurity all through her career.
I remember watching this on TV back in day Solid Gold was the joint. I bought Janet Album ..You'll Never Find..Say You Do..Young Love were my jams but my favorite song on the album was Love And My Best Friend.. then came Dream Street Album it had a few bubble gum hits such You Don't Stand A Another Chance then came Control and the rest is musical history This women's music and live concerts are unmatched by many in the industry.. It was truly a great pleasure to take the journey with Janet from the baby sister on the Jackson's Verity Show to Penny on Good Times Charlene on Diff"rent Strokes to Cleo Hewitt on Fame and all the success in film and far as I'm concerned I will continue to love and support Janet Damita Jo Jackson she's on of the best to ever do it
This show came out when I was 11 years old! I enjoyed Janet Jackson 's music! I bought this song along with her first single titled 'Young Love!' I forgot about this song that singing on Solid Gold! She was one of my best female musical singers then along with another one named Stacy Lattisaw among others! I liked their singing . I still like the way the music sounds now! She real pretty on this program and when was on American Bandstand singing these popular songs!
YOUNG LOVE TODAY IN MUSIC HISTORY 35 YEARS AGO TODAY (September 21, 1982): Janet Jackson (who was 16 at the time) released her debut self-titled album on this day. It featured such tracks as “Young Love,” “Say You Do,” “Come Give Your Love to Me,” “Forever Yours,” and “Love and My Best Friend.” [09/21/2017]
Back then, 30 years ago, I used think she was gonna be my wife one day. Only just yesterday i realized its probably not gonna happen. I was heartbroken. Just gon settle for watching her on youtube. Next best thing.
Janet always had it coming. She was always going to be a huge success. She had the looks, the talent, and the drive. But after the Control album she swore off performing any of these songs from the very early days of her career though some of them were really good. Her label back then didn't do a good job at promoting her music. And, can we talk about those Solid Gold dancers? Those girls were seriously working it in the opening sequence of this performance. Interesting how the two guys are doing the same dance moves but its just not as awesome to watch as when the ladies do it.
She has always needed a stylist. The hair is on point, but a lighter color pant is needed with that fab top. But she has never in her life looked better than here❤
that song sounds more like DONT STOP TILL U GET ENUFF than the original from OFF THE WALL. LOL. The production, falsetto vocal, dance moves. i like it though
Marsha Creary it was the key to the animal cages!!! She looked after the animals while Michael and everyone else was on tour. She put it there so she wouldn’t lose it!!!
Yes it was janet who wore the glove first with the released of say you do in september of 1982 May 16 1983 MJ perforrms Billy Jean on motown 25 where the world saw his glove and the moon walk for the first time.
They family they can do that there use to borrow ideal from each other I don’t mind they are family it just brother me when other people try to steal it like they were first lol Jackson fan to the end
Okay, my comment, Janet was young and later in life they would be so harsh on her at Superbowl although a man was inappropriate, but in this performance, let me say that I feel that for this performance, the dancers in back were dressed too skimpy and inappropriate!!! I thought I would point that out!!!
You're incorrect. Janet has been dancing with the family for years. Go google the Jackson shows, which contained heavy dance routines that required Janet to keep up with.

She has beautiful cheeks. Why would people say that? Stupid people
I wish I beautiful like her
Who ain’t cute at 16. Who’s hating? Janet cute, Rebbie pretty, Latoya beautiful
@@DTB64 All beautiful women
@@mitzithompson6585 I never heard anyone hate on Janet especially her cheekbones. I think all the Jackson’s have those cheeky cheekbones
LOL...Janet had like 4 dance moves here. Pretty adorable. ..LOL..But, man oh man, did she eat the mid 1980's and the entire 1990's alive with her awesome musical talent and dancing skills!
She left zero crumbs , Janet is still killing it!! She was in The Bay Area and it was awesome. Great show.
Janet Jackson Song Say You Do Sounds Like Michael Jackson Song Don't Stop Till You Get Enough.
The first Janet album and dream street were and are still wildly underrated albums. Of course it was a different era and Janet wasn't singing her truth but she still made it work with her talent. Those two albums helped me trough some tough times and each song on the albums hold a special place in my heart. :)

It's because videos had not come into play at that time. Once Control came along with its videos, all were able to see that not only could she sing, but that she was also a very talented dancer as well
It's got a Michael Jackson's OFF THE WALL late 1970's kind of vibe to it. Especially with the horn and strings arrangements. Cool.
I hadn't seen this clip since 1983, and it was the 1st time I had seen Janet Jackson perform. I was 13 or 14 at the time, and was enthralled by her with this performance.

Fun Fact: This song was written by Angela Winbush and Rene' Moore. The duo who created that 80's smash hit "I'll Be Good".
C1rcu1tBr34k3r nice
C1rcu1tBr34k3r really?!
@MonsterD225 Lies all lies and if I were her I'd sue him for slander

Just solid gold interrupted lol
Wow, I remember this, I was in the 6th grade. I am 50 now and still love it
I remember. I was 13.
My crush since the days when she appeared on Good Times. It's kind of nice to grow up and get old with people that you admire from afar.
Janet & The Solid Gold Dancers are just Sick!!!! This was Everything!!!! Janet is about 5'2" but She commanded that stage and it didn't hurt having The SG dancers just "Rocking Slow" but keeping that beat..
5'4
And we watch Janet become one of the greatest music artists in history 🙌
she was 17 years old ... 35 years later shes an icon!
I had her very first album and followed her career . I knew she was going to be a big star
I love seeing her first two eras. It just shows how hard work pays off and perfecting your craft takes time. Once she did it her way everything fell into place

I notice the Michael touch with the glove!!! I am sure the record label pushed her to wear that!!!!

Awwwww look at her! Look at my wife! Go head, baby! Do yo THANG!!

She real pretty on this program and when was on American Bandstand singing these popular songs!
I am so glad she got her some choreographers later in her career because she was wearing that "four corners" dance out back then!
This is not the kind of music you have choreography for her lol
Choreography wasn't that big in the early 80s. Not every song need manufactured moves.
blup1s x Rotfl LMBO!!
Lol...ikr
blup1s x You brought back the 'four corners' childhood game?
Oh yeah! I remember this era and this show well. Back when I was in love with Janet Jackson.
Janet has natural stage pressence
I bought some black fish net gloves like the ones She has on. I also use to wear a key in my earring. Janet's been my idol since 1983.
God she was beautiful
For once you think it's MJ dancing don't stop till you get enough .... Sweet little sis...great brother INFLUENCE!
She is one of the best
Still another fave song of mine by Miss janet!
I wish there was a music video for this. Janet was hot in the 80's!
I just adore Janet Jackson
I have seen pictures but never the performance. Thanks for uploading. Get it Jan...
Shoot..I remember wanting to be a Solid Gold dancer, lol.
She’s beautiful! You go Janet!
I once had the 12 inch single of this song!. remember those?? They were FUNNNNNNN to dance longer too!
You should get again of eBay , fabulous 12”
My god...so cute...I lov you Janet...4 ever...

Melody Sanger and don't mess up a good thing #underrated

Yes! I was trying to figure out what it sounded like and I knew it was a MJ song and that’s the one!!! It def sounds like don’t stop
I luv this woman , I'm saying I DO
I still love Janet's old hits in 2018! I DO LOVE YOU JANET!!
My idol I love Janet
YES JANET, I still love you in 2018!
I thought Michael was the only one with the Thriller jacket
That was a blouse not a jacket
A lot of people where sporting the Michael look with the jacket, hat , gloves during those days. It was the early 80's.
In Her Beginning Stages....All I Can Say Is She Grew To Amazingly Learn How To Use The Stage
Back then, 30 years ago, I used think she was gonna be my wife one day. Only just yesterday i realized its probably not gonna happen. I was heartbroken. Just gon settle for watching her on youtube. Next best thing.
Adoro essa música 😍
The song + performance that launched "my 35yr love affair" with "Ms. Double JJ."
happy birthday kahea birght nov 30 today hope it,s good

Then you old as hell!!!! Lol!!!!
Laney Stone that’s rude.
She even has one glove on! She ripped that off from someone!
I know Control was Janet’s big breakthrough, but she has some fun songs before that… this is one. Young Love was my favorite.
OMg!!! I have never seen this before! Thanks for the upload.
You're very welcome :)
La amooo❤❤❤❤
awesome
My Idol go Janet
Every time she sings this song or I listen to it on TH-cam, I always think at one point she says, “I’m Rebbie, you drive me wild.”
LOL... she's saying, "I'm knee-deep, you drive me wild".
They twining for sure
Personne n’a autant d’énergie que Janet
On adore
Janet jackson today sing and dance way better.i mean when she did control she thru down
Janet always had it coming. She was always going to be a huge success. She had the looks, the talent, and the drive. But after the Control album she swore off performing any of these songs from the very early days of her career though some of them were really good.

🥰🥰🥰🥰
Janet 🖤🎶🖤🎶🖤🎶🖤🎶🖤🎶
She has always needed a stylist. The hair is on point, but a lighter color pant is needed with that fab top. But she has never in her life looked better than here❤
Was Janet wearing a beat it style jacket before micheal thriller?? Wonder who was stilling who style?? Ponder that
that song sounds more like DONT STOP TILL U GET ENUFF than the original from OFF THE WALL. LOL. The production, falsetto vocal, dance moves. i like it though
The key earring in her left ear
Marsha Creary Ikr. I rocked the hell out of that. Ppl said I looked like her and you couldn't tell me s×××. 😂
Marsha Creary it was the key to the animal cages!!! She looked after the animals while Michael and everyone else was on tour. She put it there so she wouldn’t lose it!!!
@Marcha Creary, Yeah we were all out, buying earrings, and leaving one big hoop in like Janet.
Those were Micheal moves first😊
Did she ever in her life sing live?
No one sung live on Solid Gold.
No one sung live on soul train either excep maybe Mariah because she refused to but it’s to keep costs down I think?
Jesus she looks like young Michael with makeup on in that thumbnail.
I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried but my hair just never did that.
Girl, me too!
Looking like Michael
I do. Lol
😷"Say You Do" and "Don't Stop 'Till You Get Enough"...OK
I’m confused... why’s Janet. dressed like Michael?
luckily, she got Control and now is in the Hall of Fame.
Shoulder pads in clothes back then was high fashion so the Jacksons in general were following trends
One gloves umm who wore it first lol
Yes it was janet who wore the glove first with the released of say you do in september of 1982 May 16 1983 MJ perforrms Billy Jean on motown 25 where the world saw his glove and the moon walk for the first time.
They family they can do that there use to borrow ideal from each other I don’t mind they are family it just brother me when other people try to steal it like they were first lol Jackson fan to the end
Mary Wilson
I agree with you on that! Also team jackson 4life
That's not true, Michael's been wearing the glove since the triumph tour in 1981
Casper TFG Michael wore the glove before thriller. Just know Janet always copy Michael
She’s literally dressed like Michael
jojo * She really not This was the style back in 82
no she's not
Was this pre James debarge?
He was her man but they weren't married, yet.
This was when she was with him, don’t know if they were married yet or not
Okay, my comment, Janet was young and later in life they would be so harsh on her at Superbowl although a man was inappropriate, but in this performance, let me say that I feel that for this performance, the dancers in back were dressed too skimpy and inappropriate!!! I thought I would point that out!!!
That woman at 3:09 clapping looks like a dead horse 🤣
I wish she weren't lip syncing
гидота
Nope 🤣
кал
She couldn't dance for shit, She wasn't gonna get nowhere with that. thanks to Jimmy Jam , Terry Lewis and Paula Abdul.
Danielle Rameau. LoL LoL
Paula only did two videos for her sooo
hater
anthony barlow Paula actually did 3 videos!
You're incorrect. Janet has been dancing with the family for years. Go google the Jackson shows, which contained heavy dance routines that required Janet to keep up with.
