The Top Ten

  1. When I Think of You

  2. Escapade

    I'm still deeply in love with this song! I still play it every day in my car in 2018!

    My mom used to play this song all the time, and I absolutely love it!

  3. Control

    I love dancing to the beat of this song. It's very Janet too!

  4. Love Will Never Do (Without You)

    One of the purest examples of perfectly crafted pure pop songs of all time! Originally intended to be a male-female duet, this works so wonderfully due to Janet's delivery of the lyrics and her showcasing strong vocals in both high and low ranges. The arrangement and layered vocals add to the infectious chorus. This is a great example of a brilliant song.

  5. Together Again

    This is a beautiful song of hers. I love that song, and I always play it during the day.

    This is the best song.

  6. If

    Hands down, this is my favorite Janet song ever. The choreography is timeless, and I just love everything about it.

  7. Velvet Rope

  8. Let's Wait Awhile

    She sounds like Michael's sister in this one.

  9. What Have You Done for Me Lately

  10. Go Deep

    11. The Newcomers
  11. ?

    Diamonds

  12. ?

  13. That's the Way Love Goes

    This song is a smooth, groovy jam!

  14. Miss You Much

    Why is Janet's best song at number 12?

  15. Again

    This is such a beautiful ballad. I legitimately cried over this.

  16. Nasty

  17. Come Back to Me

  18. Rhythm Nation

    This has a good message in it. It is a great song with excellent choreography.

    This is probably one of her most recognizable songs.

  19. This Time

    This is the best song on Janet. The production is amazing.

  20. Black Cat

  21. The Pleasure Principle

  22. Empty

  23. Throb

  24. All for You

    This is my favourite song of hers.

    1. All For You

    2. Together Again

    3. If

    4. Runaway

    5. Doesn't Really Matter

    This is the perfect song for summer and at night when I feel like I'm going to a nightclub to party on a Saturday.

    What an amazing song! It is one of her many number ones!

  25. Runaway

  26. Feedback

    While almost all of Janet's songs stand on their own, were huge hits, and have stood the test of time in relevance, Feedback, if it had been recorded and released during her prime years prior to the Super Bowl fiasco, would have become one of her top five hits of all time. That the song cracked the top 20 when radio had all but abandoned playing her showed how strong the song actually was.

  27. Any Time, Any Place

    This is a masterpiece.
