so the other day i was all concerned about the upcoming janet jackson album (20 Y.O. - due out next month) and how the first single call me wasn't cutting it for me at all...well the second single so excited just premiered over the weekend and although it's better (not by much) than the first one - i'm still not feeling the new ms. jackson vibe! have a listen below and decide for yourself...the song also features dirty rap girl khia who does add a drop of cool so ms. jackson does get points for that...i've been 'so excited' for this album but i really think it's going to be dead in the water...popbytes over & out for now - xxoo!

JANET JACKSON - SO EXCITED

To me Janet hates this whole experience.. I'm not the only who says she looks dead in the eyes and miserable.., end her torment.. don't promote this return. She's working for the ego of man she married, but not willingly. I'm sure she has enough money to happily retire now.

i think this new one is actually worse than call on me (possible?) what is wrong with her? there was a time when she didnt just grunt and coo like a whore all over every song. your an old lady janet, stop orgasming over every song, jesus. the return's not gon happen, time for her to pack it up and move to bahrain.

There are so many haters that dont want to see her succeed. Alot of times Janets songs have to grow on you and then once it does you find yourself loving it. And for those who dont like her music, then dont listen to it, no one has a gun to your head when call on me comes on the radio. Its time to get a damn life and stop being stupid

I absolutely love what you said and I totally agree. If I have to buy 50 albums, so be it.

It really kills me when individuals are not able to see what is unique and different. Many are so quick to judge individuals to where they are not able to here the message. Both of the new song are like that which warrants those to appreciate her individuality.

I think some people are expecting for Janet to release another "All For You"-style album but even JD said they were not looking to release a Pop Album, they were going back to the roots of Control circa 1986. Conrol was more r&b driven, from "Call on Me" to "So Excited" to "Enjoy", Janet has enever sounded so beautiful. Cannot wait for 20 Years Old, 2006 will be Janet's time!

I think the song is hot! Cant wait to hear it driving with friends in the car...or at the club! Will be hot! I also listened to the leaked "Enjoy" today and that song is my favorate by far!!! All of them are great the album has no choice but to be a HIT!

People, Janet is an icon! She sets trends and changes the Artistic-expression of music! If Madonna can reinvent herslf why can't Janet-- Furthermore, BET~thank you for supporting Janet(you guys have been down when MTV dissed her..they'll beg for her music again!) She had to return to her roots~BET.

lol...you make me laugh...imust admit i hated the first single Call on me until it grew on me....but this new one...So excited...is slamming and anyone who hates it doesn't love to dance and is probably a jealous, egotistically jealous 20 year old who needs all the attention to themself...anyways i'm off to shelk Paris...enjoy the new song it's BLASTIN!!

Janet is back!!!! All you haters tack a seat because the next year belongs to Janet. This CD I'm sure will be off the chain just like all her other albums, including Damita Jo. There are no entertainers in the business today that are even in the same league with Janet, especially the female entertainers. I don't care how many of them try their will only be one Miss Jackson. The song is raw as hell!!!!

Janet will be fine. "Call On Me" wasn't good or bad, it was just ok. She looked incredible in the video. This new song is good and her album will be quality. Some of the hateful comments are surprising. Probably employees of competing record labels. To this day, no one in music has ever thrilled us the way those Jacksons do, not even Madonna. Love em or hate, you know that's the truth. I would like to hear some hard funky Janet. I hope this album has that.

Call on me got already over 62 million spins and So Excited will jump #1 in pop and RnB So think about it before you judge

Janet is awesome. Her music is just as fresh and exciting as ever. Janet is an icon who is copied by just about every wanna be in the music business. Call on Me is a wonderful song. It is one of Janet's most successful R&B singles. It is still climbling up the R&B charts -inside the top 10. Call om Me is also climbing up the dance charts as well. So Excited is an awesome single. The video will be awesome as well. 20 years later and the "haters" are still in denial. Janet will continue to be an awesome entertainer and person. Janet fans are equally awesome! And to the haters....we still love ya! Go, Janet! 20ys later....still in control!

I love this one uhh, It was the boom. I thought that CALL ON ME was magnificent but when i heard this on i said whoa how far can she go with the best so all ya'll haters go to hell or go suck ya'll mamas and leave my girl alone

let me say this I just saw the video for so excited. that video is so damn hot its on fire. For all the haters that say janets to old , janet can't sing and shes to old to move like she use to. Take a look at so excited, that shit is smoking! instant #111 billboards,pop, r&b, dance, all #1 smoker. So for all of you who says she shouldn't coo and swoo on her album or ahe doesn't have it anymore shut your dumb ass up.
