Janet Dreams of Being “Together Again”
Originally intended as a ballad dedicated to a friend she lost due to AIDS, Ms. Jackson — we’re all nasty here — turned “Together Again” into an uptempo celebration of life. The song was a big fat hit and the second single from her celebrated 1997 album, The Velvet Rope, which, addressed issues about homophobia and same-sex attraction., No wonder another Janet — trans icon Janet Mock — called the album “pivotal”.
