Janet Jackson :: Charts & Sales History

’Alright’ is on YouTube.

[hun]

’All Nite’ on YouTube, but not on Janet’s official channel.

[hun]

Both video have been unlocked rather than uploaded, so Alright is on 1.2M and All Nite is on 2.5M

[TwentyForeplay]

Hopefully the video for All Nite will be moved to Janet's offical channel asap.

Also neither video is remastered to HD but note they also took a few days to "remaster" Together Again and some other videos after they were unblocked back in October.

[Nerd Score]

Twenty Foreplay in HD now

[Dimey]

That’s incredible. Only Runaway(for the main videos) is missing.

[HouseTargaryen]

Kind of sad there are no new certs yet.
They could at least do Australia which seems easier.

It is kinda annoying that she doesn't care about these things.

[Nerd Score]

There are still alternate video versions that might not ever get uploaded to her YouTube channel

- Alright (Extended Version with Heavy D)
- Love Will Never Do (Original Black & White Version)
- That's The Way Love Goes (One Take Version)
- If (All Dance)
- Again (Poetic Justice Version)
- You Want This (Original Black & White Version)

[HouseTargaryen]

I feel like maybe her team is small so they're focusing on the YouTube uploads right now.

[Nerd Score]

Janet streams are rising in the midst of Janet Jackson Appreciation Day tomorrow.

I didn't know Rock With U is gold in Japan and eligible for Gold in the U.S.?

’Alright’ is on YouTube.

Unblocked after 7 years but Kworb updated that it saw 32k views yesterday. I don't know what the deal was with so many of her A&M-era videos being blocked (as well as Virgin releases) but this should've been sorted out a long time ago. Now we await All Nite, Best Things and Runaway to be re-uploaded/unblocked (forget about Dream Street, she's letting that be rotten with the cobwebs! ).

[BadMan125]

Today's top ten video views according to Kworb:

1. Scream w/MJ - 32,215
2. Alright - 32,053
3. Together Again - 24,422
4. Call on Me w/Nelly - 24,118
5. That's the Way Love Goes - 14,866
6. All for You - 13,516
7. Every Time - 9,469
8. The Pleasure Principle - 8,969
9. Rhythm Nation - 8,121
10. Escapade - 7,709

[BadMan125]

That’s incredible. Only Runaway(for the main videos) is missing.

All Nite isn't on her channel yet. Just on the fan page, Janet Jackson World. But I can see it re-uploaded or unblocked on YouTube soon.

It's not though. Where did you get that information? Janet has no gold singles in Japan. And I doubt it's even close for gold certification in the US. It'll need far more streams on Spotify and Apple Music and YouTube video views before it can be a contender.

It shouldn't be on EMI. That's confusing because Just a Little While and I Want You are on her page... something's messy with that!

[Forreal]

She has a lot of uncertified titles to my knowledge, though….

[Choley]

These are eligible for at least Gold in the US too
• The Pleasure Principle
• Let's Wait Awhile
• Come Back to Me
• No Sleeep


Not sure about these or will get there
• Diamonds
• The Best Things In Life Are Free
• Beacuse of Love
• Got 'til It's Gone
• Someone to Call My Lover
• Call On Me

and maybe a Latin certification for Made For Now

[TwentyForeplay]

Don't be surprised if the video just gets moved to her offical account.

"What's It Gonna Be?!" was moved to Busta Rhymes' offical page last year. Before then, it was on another account. I'm not sure how long it will take Janet's team to notice the video isn't on her main account tho. Hopefully it gets moved once they remaster it to HD.

Doesn't Really Matter should be a Gold single in Japan. It sold 83,210 copies during it's 25 week run on the Oricon Singles chart. I'm sure at least 100,000 physical copies were shipped to retailers making it eligible for Gold status.

Of course it was never certified. I hope they eventually re-certify her whole catalog in Japan and also Australia as someone else mentioned. I'm sure there would be some surprises.

With 23 certified singles, Janet ranks in third place behind Whitney Houston and Madonna (both with 27) and Mariah Carey (38) for most RIAA-certified singles by a female artist in the 20th century. Overall she's in fourth place if you include Michael Jackson.

9. Billy Joel (20)
10. Bruce Springsteen (15)

Scream is 2x Platinum but I don't think she's credited and only whoever Michael Jackson team is have to update and Got Til It's Gone should be going Gold this year becoming her first non American release single to be RIAA eligible I believe.

The Discipline album moved up 300% on Spotify in the past week due to the deluxe edition.

It probably is Gold in Japan that song was popular in Japan and had the most impact in Japan heck they even sent her a video doing their own version of Rock With U and RIAJ and RIAA are two different certification companies Janet certs haven't been updated in Japan in only god knows how long.
