All from her Rhythm Nation Album which was inducted into The National Recording Registry at the Library of Congress. Her Albums have topped Billboard's 200 charts between 1986 -2017. Janet Jackson is 1 of only 4 recording artists that have had # 1 Albums in each of the last 4 decades. Barbara Streisand ,Bruce Springsteen , and U2 are the other 3. She was inducted into tne Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2019.
Fun Fact: The incredible dancing & choreography was done by Paula Abdul. She also choreographed Janet’s “Nasty” and “What Have You Done (For Me Lately)” music videos. 🎉⭐️🙌🏼
Janet Jackson "LOVE WILL NEVER DO WITHOUT YOU" (original video) is my favorite of all of her songs ever, and that says A lot. She is STUNNING in the video 🙌
The best funkiest Janet song is Miss You Much! But make sure you watch the chair dance section at the end. It gets cut off in the end of the official video. It’s important because it inspired a generation of artists!
Janet Jackson is one of my All-Time Favorite Female artist!!! Love love this song!!!!One of my favorites from her!!! If you like this song....you should react to "Escapades" by Janet Jackson. It is FIRE!!!
The Minneapolis Sound originated with Prince and the group The Time. Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis were members of The Time and went on to become super producers. Check out The Time's Jungle Love, it's fantastic. The band, ABC, had a song named Minneapolis, which was an ode to the Minneapolis Sound. They captured it perfectly!
wasn't the minneapolis sound popularized with Prince and his various protégés and side-projects? but the origin is actually a multitude of different rnb groups in minneapolis (flyte tyme, 94 east's "just another sucker", ...)
The Minneapolis sound is basically anything sort of Prince related i.e. producers that came from Prince and the Revolution or The Time. Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis came from The Time and had HUGE success with Janet, they also did, The Human League, The S.O.S Band, and a number of other artists. They were recently inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on what was the 25th anniversary of the "Control" album. They were also used when Janet teamed with Michael for "Scream", A MUST SEE ICONIC VIDEO AND PERFORMANCE!
One thing I had never noticed about this video until now: is this a one-shot viedo? Now I need to go back and check for filming breaks. Update: unknown. There are a few places where really good editing could allow breaks (when she enters her room from the balcony, after she slides down the railing, when she enters the club, the camera flash, the panning behind whatever makes it black at the ending dance scene)... but it certainly has the FEEL of a one-take video. I believe that was rare at the time.
IMO, Janet's golden era is the control era. Her live performances at the 1987 American music awards & Grammys is something to rival MJ as far as being pioneers on the big stage. Great reaction and review carnal. And, great ear too. The MINNIOPOLIS SOUND CONSIST OF -Prince - The Tyme - Jimmy Jam/ Terry Lewis (Janet's producers), AND LET ME TELL YOU BROTHER ITS A SOUND TO BEHOLD. GREAT GREAT GREAT MUSIC FROM THAT REGION, AND JANET'S MUSIC WAS PRODUCED BY ONE OF THE GREATEST PRODUCING DUO'S OF ALL TIME. DUDE, IM TELLING YOU THAT IF YOU LOVE FUNK THEN YOU'LL LOVE THIS GENRE.
@@italoblu No I went to a different birthday celebration that she performed at. It was a royal birthday and it was about 23 years ago now but she was incredible.
Most of this video was done in a single take; with only a few breaks in the action. One when Jane leaves the balcony to enter the apartment, and one when she leave her room. Once she is on the stream; we don't get another cut until the bar. The cut comes when she enters the bar, and again when she leave. It's at the camera flash; that the cut comes in. If you look closely; you'll notices there's more people on the street now. The last cut comes near the end of the song; right before the police show up. Other than that; It's all one long continuous shot
I've spent my Mother's Day watching your Les Miserables reaction videos! Thank you! Janet Jackson was amazing in the 80's and 90's, this was high school/college era for me, I considered the songs to be just "fun", the videos were productions not unlike Michael's Thriller video.
This video inspired me to go back and look at a lot of the earlier female artists you have covered in the past, like Ann Wilson, Karen Carpenter, and Stevie Nicks. Wow, over the decades it's pretty easy to see how mainstream music has intentionally dumbed us down. Janet is a long way from Carole King and Joni Mitchell.
Check out Paula Abdul. While she didn't choreograph this music video. She did several other from this album. Then went on to have one of the top debut alboms ever produced.
@@jodij6280 but you're aware of it, you've heard it, you may not listen to it. My comment was meant humorously. I've listened to Mozart, and he was well before my time.
I’ve often wondered this, in this era of “reaction” videos. I think the difference for previous generations is that we grew up when much of music was consumed on the radio. So you basically heard what was played on the radio stations you listened to, or your parents listened to. It wasn’t unusual for the “top hits” stations to occasionally play a song from 10 or 20 years ago. But now, for younger generations, most music is probably consumed on Spotify, Sirius, etc. So unless you’re seeking out older music, or have parents that expose you to it, you’re just not hearing it. That’s my theory.
Black and If are musts, as is Trust a Try. And the Unbreakable album is incredible (her last album). Too many to mention though. Her discography is impeccable.
'Love Will Never Do' is another Janet Jackson song you MUST react to.
Sizzling. Janet at her best.
That's my favorite of all of her songs/videos EVER!! ❤
I agree another classic by her

Her first number 1 hit. This song has some amazing remixes as well. And Paula Abdul did some fantastic choreography.
She was just the best of em.
Oh man, memory unlocked! True definition of 80's fashion!!!
Rhythm Nation is fire ! Serious precision in that one

Janet's 'Rhythm Nation' has the most amazing dance sequences as does 'Miss You Much' I'd love to see your reaction to those!
My favorite video of Janet.
The best funkiest Janet song is Miss You Much! But make sure you watch the chair dance section at the end. It gets cut off in the end of the official video. It’s important because it inspired a generation of artists!
The video was shot in only a few takes, old-school Big Hollywood style. (Note how few cuts there are.)
Great song, its on my play list.
Janet Jackson is one of my All-Time Favorite Female artist!!! Love love this song!!!!One of my favorites from her!!! If you like this song....you should react to "Escapades" by Janet Jackson. It is FIRE!!!
Happy Mother's Day to your mom Salvo G great choice great reaction 🎉❤️🌹🤗
Great album. 6 hits from it. 5 Top Tens and a #14.
I always loved this song-definitely taking me back to the 80s
Going to see her June 7th. Can’t wait…she is amazing in concert. 🎉
The song was produced by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis who was part of the Prince’s group “The Time”. You are hearing the Minneapolis sound at its best.

"I'm GoNnA pUt YoU aLL iN jAiL!!!" 😹
You can’t not move to this. Love the long takes and camera movement. A great album.
Live is amazing! She can dance!
Rhythm Nation, I get so lonely, So in love, Janet is awesome
Black Cat is a great, unexpected Janet Jackson song.
The title song "Control" is a banger, as is "Rhythm Nation".
🔥 🔥 🔥
Paula Abdul did the choreography for this video. She did choreo for a few of her videos early on in her career.
Not this one. I thought the same till I looked it up.
However most of the iconic videos from this album, are her work.
Minneapolis Sound is what Prince created.
More Janet Jackson reactions please
SONG SUGGESTION!!!
Crosby Stills and Nash first album
Song: Suite: Judy Blue Eyes.
Love seeing your appreciation for the music of my youth.
"Happy Mother's Day" my brotha.❤❤❤
Paula Abdul Choreographed this video!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
You know, SalvoG Bobbleheads would be a great addition to sell in your store. Love watching you get into the music as you react to these videos.
yes ! 😅

She performed live at a birthday celebration I went to and she was awesome totally outstanding vocalist and my god she can dance
You attended the birthday of the Prince of Saudi Arabia?
@@italoblu No I went to a different birthday celebration that she performed at. It was a royal birthday and it was about 23 years ago now but she was incredible.
Excellent song
Great song and video. Other great Janet Jackson videos are The Pleasure Principle and Alright.
You should react to Janet's Alright as well, directed by Julien Temple also.
Adorable video. Paula Abdul taught Janet her choreography!

Is it night where you're at because it's 8:21 am here you take care and God bless and I hope your mother had a happy mother's Day
You now understand why I hate it when people say that she's underrated. That's very ignorant and not true
Fun fact this video only had 5 cuts in the whole video
Those were the days..no drugs or gun crime, they just had the dangerous crime of random dancing to deal with lol
"Nasty"and "Black Cat" are my suggestions.
Pop music

This isn’t funky my guy it’s pop. 80s at that. This is michaels sister we’re takin bout
Video used long camera takes. Very unconventional for music videos in the 80's.
Were you musically deprived as a child?
Raised by Amish perhaps?
He was born 6 years after this song was released.
