In the 84th edition of Midnight Heat π π₯ (2023), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind βAny Time, Any Placeβ by Janet Jackson.Β
Ah, bring on Midnight Heat π π₯! Wait β it is not usually hot at midnight! Well, it is steaming hot π₯΅ at midnight when it comes to this naughty, innuendo and sex-laden column featuring songs intended for nighttime. Yeah, we are talking about that after dark, bedroom boom $hiβ , ya dig? These unapologetic records often raises both eyebrows and temperature alike. Woo! In the 84th edition of Midnight Heat (2023), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind, π΅ βAny Time, Any Placeβ by π Janet Jackson.
βIn the thundering rain / You stare into my eyes / I can feel your hand / Moving up my thighs.β Oh, snap π«°, π Janet Jackson.Β For good measure, Janet later asserts, βWith the lights down low / I was thinking maybe we could / Well, you know.β Yeah, you TOTALLY know π π! The π Grammy-winning pop/R&B artist has long excelled at singing about sex. π΅ βAny Time, Any Placeβ, the 25th track from her 1993 album, πΏ Janet., is a prime example of the sexy, sexual vibes being elevated to the nth degree.Β On this platinum, no. 2 Billboard Hot 100 hit, co-produced with π Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, IT can go down anywhere, anytime.
The chorus sums things up perfectly:
βAny time
And any place
I donβt care whoβs around
No, no, no, no, no.β
So, Janet is willing to have sex with him anywhere, regardless of privacy? Holy she-it! Prior to the chorus, in the pre-chorus, she makes it clear, βI donβt give a damn what they think,β adding, βYou feel so good inside of my love.β Hmm, inside, huh? Weβll leave it at that π! As much as a song like π΅ βAny Time, Any Placeβ can be read into, Jackson remains far less explicit than sheβd become, namely the highly sexual πΏ Damita Jo from 2004 (π΅ βStrawberry Bounceβ, π΅ βMoistβ and π΅ βWarmthβ come to mind). Still, sheβs certainly not that innocent on this slick, sensual seven-minute record, Britney!
