· • · JANET · JACKSON STILL NUMBER ONE · • ·: "Numbers like “Escapade”, “All For You”, “Doesn’t Really Matter” and “All For You” got the entire stadium on their feet again, and they remained standing right through to the last part of the night, which brought out Janet’s more rock-tinged songs like “Black Cat”, “Rhythm Nation” and “Scream”. One letdown was how brief some of the songs were – such is the dilemma of a diva such a Janet Jackson, with a repertoire of 35 number one songs to choose from.
She closed the show with “Together Again” from 1996 album, The Velvet Rope. It was a rather bittersweet moment, as Janet, who had spent her whole career asserting herself as an artist separate from Michael Jackson, flashed childhood photos of themselves in a tribute to her elder brother and departed King of Pop.
The whole stadium sang along to the lyrics “I know we’ll be together again because/ Everywhere I go/ Every smile I see/ I know you are there/ Smiling back at me”"
