If there’s one thing Janet is gonna give on a track, it’s harmony. The way this woman has mastered layering is mind boggling. She doesn’t get enough credit for that methinks.

Janet Deserves alot of credit i think that she doesn't get. Immensly talented and to make a name for herself and carve out a style on her own and move away from being seen as just 'Michaels sister' is no small feat. Janet is amazing.

First, thank you for this video! I tell anyone who is musically inclined, that Janet is a master of voacl production. The chemistry of Janet,Jam and Lewis is phenomenal. She isn't a "belter", but her voice is beautiful. As a music educator, I immediately recognize when an artist has an ear, and does she ever. Her choice of harmonies and overdubs are smart. She's one of the few artist who will lay down her backing vocals first. Thank you again!!!

Thanks for sharing and analysing this. I've had this song in my head a while and been listening to it and then discovered your channel. This is a feel-good song. And I agree Janet's songs are sometimes underrated but hearing what goes into them, like this one - such creativity. Beautiful vocal harmonies, a range of instruments, thoughtful placement of effects including vocal effects, the sample. I agree with other comments here, if you are able to analyse If, that will be cool. Jam and Lewis' productions are always very big for Janet so I'm sure that there are several Janet songs that will be interesting to analyse - maybe Velvet Rope, I Get Lonely, Rhythm Nation, Somebody To Call My Lover, Feedback, Alright, Love Will Never Do (Without You)

Just found your awesome videos. In my radio production days we would flip the reels and do that reverse with tape echo, not with a reverb, that would be added when playing forward, messing around with tape speeds you'd get some nice varieties.
