Aspect Ratio: 1.33:1Audience Rating: Unrated Binding: DVD EAN: 0780063657792 Format: Best of, Color, Dolby, DVD-Video, NTSC Label: A&M Languages: Manufacturer: A&M MPN: 636577 Number Of Items: 1 Publisher: A&M Region Code: 1 Release Date: December 04, 2001 Running Time: 90 minutes Studio: A&M Theatrical Release Date: October 10, 1995 Editorial Review: Amazon.com: The arc of Janet Jackson's career from the late 1980s to the late '90s was a story of determined growth by an artist and woman. The extent to which Jackson served as a role model for many an adolescent girl during that decade (a phenomenon illuminated on another DVD, The Rhythm Nation Compilation) speaks to the formidable yet feminine image she presented via her music and music videos. Design of a Decade includes 16 of her videos from 1986 to 1996, taking us through Jackson's early, "don't trifle with me" attitude in the "What Have You Done for Me Lately" era, to her more rapturous, sensual makeover in "Love Will Never Do (Without You)." Of course, this video is also a record of some of the most ambitious music videos ever produced, including Julien Temple's elaborate "When I Think of You," Peter Smillie's "Escapade," and Marcus Nispel's ecstatic, fantastic "Runaway." --Tom Keogh Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Wow, this takes me back....The earlier videos were so dated but I enjoyed from Pleasure Principle on....The sound is a little low but maybe it is because the videos are old. Fun to see people who were in her videos... Rating:  - Early Janet, the BESTWOW, I had forgotten how sexy some of these earlier videos were. Anytime, Anyplace is really hot. The dancing and music are fantastic. If you like Janet, you will love this collection of videos. Rating: - Love will never do without youThis is a fun DVD which captures Janet through 1986 where she broke out with her successful "Control" album through to 1996 with the successful song "Runaway". It's quite amusing to see the clips from the 80's with the strong focus on group dance movements. Also interesting to see Janet battle with weight issues through the years. In some clips her face is so chubby! The songs from "Control" are very dated now, sounding very synethised and lacking what I would call a nice melody ... but they are ...

Her music and the videos that accompany them showed the world that she was a budding talent with a beautiful (although faint) voice and astonishing dancing skills that many would come to assimilate. A plethora of her younger contemporaries have said that she inspired them because her career as a whole has been nothing short of groundbreaking. A great illustration of her creative works as an artist are her videos. "Design of a Decade" includes ... Read More Rating: - A must have for any music fanDesign of a decade is really what the title describes. It shows the rise of a true music Icon, someone who has helped pave the way for pop/R&B/Dance music. If it werent for Janet and these hits beyonce, ciara, mya, rihanna, and any other up and coming pop diva out there wouldnt exsist. If you are a music fan of funky and fun hits this is a must have DVD. It showcases janet at some of her most edgy and classic musical experiments. Definatly worth the 5 stars i rated it. |
