SEE: Janet Jackson's new Make Me video

The Return of Janet
(Miss Jackson, if you're nasty)
Let's be honest; it's been quite a while since Janet Jackson's music career has been on track. Her last few albums were patchy, and oddly S&M obsessed, and were pretty much snubbed by the public at large despite housing some genuinely good material. The ghost of Superbowl performances past apparently still lingers in many a prudish mind.

But Janet is back - BACK! - with a very decent ditty called "Make Me" from her new greatest hits compilation Number Ones (which features Canadian, South African and club chart number ones to boost the track listing).

The song features the lyrics "don't stop 'til you get it up" in an obvious nod to her late brother Michael's "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" and the just released video bares more than a small resemblance to the video for "Scream", the siblings' duet (compare and contrast below) and sees her don a fedora, one of MJ's trademarks.

Let's hope "Make Me" gets Janet - who is looking great (let's all ignore the metallic shoulder pads) - back on track and making some bondage-free hits!
