wm.allaccess.com/allaccess/janefeed.wmaThis is the lead single from Janet's new album. It was produced by Rodney Jerkins. This sounds like something off Britney's new album. I'm not crazy about it. If Britney can't get a hit with this electro-pop sound, I don't know how Janet's going to do it. This isn't even that catchy.

This gets catchier with each listen. It actually kind of reminds me of Missy ("Lose Control") too. It's probably my favorite single by her since "Someone To Call My Lover," but that's not saying much at all.

Well...it's better than "Call On Me".

I actually think this is one of her best songs in a while.

"I'M HEAVY LIKE I JUST DID PERIODS?!?" wow.  Anyway, this is alright. I could see this being a bigger hit for a younger singer though to be frank. Although I don't think i'd compare it to Britney because Janet isn't too crazy to promote it and make a decent video (although "Call On Me" was expensive and look how that turned out) |

Okay. This is hot. I'm totally jamming to it now. It's catchy as hell. It's too pop though. I think that's a mistake.

M EH. (f**king grammar correction. I meant M-E-H) This is okay. This sounds like a reject from Britney's album. And Rodney is really trying to channel Tim with this production. I think people will like this at first but get bored with it quickly. It's a cute try, but I will be really shocked if this is a hit. It definitely wont do anything on urban and I think that's who she needs to be trying to appeal to. It's a lot better than the singles from the last 2 albums tho even if that isn't saying much. @ "I'm heavy like a first day period." |

I think people will like this at first but get bored with it quickly. I agree. It's catchy, but completely disposable. I mean, this doesn't even come near her All For You hits for me. When you compare this to the majority of her hits, it's an embarrassment. This would be the perfect heater to get people talking about how Janet's back, and then drop something serious in a month. |

If she has a smash second single waiting, this would be decent. But I have a feeling this is the best it gets |

I completely forget how this song goes (other than the chorus), if I'm not listening to it.

This is really catchy and easily her best song since "Someone To Call My Lover." Having said that, I don't really like it yet. It's soooo Pop. Big mistake. They didn't learn from "Just A Little While"? Urban radio had Janet's back during 20 Y.O. which took a lot of grassroots work from her, and now they're throwing that away by releasing a single that Urban can't play at all.

I know the Mariah comparisons were inevitable with L.A. Reid behind her now molding her comeback, but I get serious "It's Like That" vibes from this song in the sense that if she put this song out before she started flopping, people would probably be saying it's a pile of sh*t but since it's better than the garbage she's been putting out for the past several years, people are freaking out just because it's not total garbage. I mean, I enjoy this, but it better not be the best she has to offer. In fact, this better be one of the weaker songs on the album.

"I'm heavy like a first day period" = "Them chickens is ash and I'm lotion"
She's even trying to copy the lyrics that are so bad that they can only be seen as a joke.
