Love Will Never Do (Without You) quietly scaled the ranks over the years to the point where it's an equal with Like A Prayer and Express Yourself in my world. The way all of those individual pieces come together at the end, the synths, the percussion, her lead vocals, multiple Janet "groups" doing different harmonies in the background simultaneously, it's like this miraculous wall of sound and it gets me every time.
its such an amazing, the vocals in the first verse completely juxtapose the vocals in the second verse, makes it seem like a feature without anyone on it.
