both song and video are attempting to revisit the whole vibe of that's the way love goes. the plan won't work, this new song is pleasant enough but way inferior to the one it tries to copy. she does look fresh and youthful on the video, though, i'm giving her that. next single has to be a proper banger for people to take good notice.

The only cities that have multiple dates are those where she's playing theaters lol.

- EDIT -

Now Janet has suspended production and rehearsals on the tour "to be with her sick father."

New song "The Great Forever" on the way...

20 seconds can be heard here:

At least it's not another slow-jam. Sounds a bit feeble though. Fingers crossed!

judging by that snippet, at least it sounds a bit more interesting than no sleeep.

this is exactly the reason why i bothered mentioning it. come to think of, it'd be genius if she releases an album titled SIXTY THREE one day. more appropriately when at the age of sixty three.

so, her tour has just kicked off. she's performing a greatest hits setlist wearing just one stage costume that spares no flesh in display. i wouldn't mind attending, to be honest.

The album cover. The image is just ok, but that font is inexcusable.

The type treatment is so tacky and cheap. Did they pay an intern to do it?

Indeed. Also, was there always such a huge gap between her nose and mouth? It looks odd,

I'd say the entire album will outstay its welcome by a good 10 songs. :chuckle:

I think it might be because she was always smiling before, and it shortened the gap. Hmm.

Her album has gone up for pre-order in the US and the title track is available now too.

just checked the covers of my copies of janet. and design of a decade. she ain't giving a smiling face but i can definitely not trace that gap. i don't blame her for going through plastic surgery but it's frustrating a star of her caliber and experience cannot choose a more flattering image for an album cover. but then, all her album covers for the past 15 years have been dreadful - bar discipline, i kind of love that one.

Here's the title track:

Everyone's raving it. Sounds like a load of shite to me though. The same drivel she's been churning out for years. This wouldn't even make it as filler during her peak period.
