Wie die Gay Community Janet Jackson für einen ihrer grössten Hits inspiriert hat...
Gegenüber dem Billboard Magazine erklärte Janet Jackson, wie die LGBTQ-Community sie für einen ganz bestimmten Song inspiriert hat und dieser schliesslich zu einem ihrer grössten Hits wurde...
“It’s a loving, all-embracing community that has always inspired me. I don’t often listen to my own work, but when I go back to [1997’s] Velvet Rope, I put on “Together Again” and remember the friends I lost to AIDS. It was important to me to honor them not mournfully but joyously in a celebratory song. Their spirit did so much to bolster mine. Sometimes when people talk about Velvet Rope, they call it my edgiest or sexiest record. Yet the heart of the record is not about sex at all. It’s about how, in defiance of death, we will all be “together again.” It’s an anthem to undying love.”
