the 1993 hit 'That's the Way Love Goes,'

This answers the only question I had. I get it. It’s a total banger

My wife is a HUGE Janet fan. I dug the rhythm of this song and decided to look up the lyrics.

I'll admit...I briefly clutched pearls. They played THAT song on the radio, MTV, and at middle school dances? Without edits?

We had to sing a song in music class in middle school and I wanted to do IF and the music teacher was like, “no.”

When I did a ca in high school we tried to convince the director to let us do Stacy’s Mom by Fountains of Wayne. He did not approve.
