Janet Jackson

This first single from Janet's 10th studio album has something of an ironic title: the louder the song is played, the better it sounds. Perhaps this is the track that she's needed all along, to finally drown out all the negativity associated with weak album sales and Super Bowl drama. The song has a strong melody and quirky vocals, even if the bridge is a bit wordy. Still, producers Rodney Jerkins and D'Mile offer up a pulsating space-beat that's current, danceable and a solid comeback to whet fans' appetites.
