"When I first heard this song..I instantly fell in love and had to have it..you can imagine my dismay when the record store told me she was not releasing this song stateside...well..today it is clearly one of her best songs and my personal fav...
I agree with the other reviewers..the remixes are good..but, not the best..for me the original is still the best...with the "Mellow Mix" coming in behind it a close second. I would have loved a version with more of the music and less of the lyrics..the groove for the original is fantastic...overall I love the song..I have not stopped playing the CD since I got it yesterday...
I own the import version:
1.Radio Edit-Excellent..shorter than album
2.Mellow Mix-NO Q-Tip rap...laid back..groovy
3.Nellee Hooper Master Mix..My least favorite..(Sorry Nelle)
4.Mellow Mix Edit-The same as no.2, just edited
5.Album Version-True classic
The cover..fantastic..my favorite video from "TVR".. "Got Til It's Gone" viedo is the cover art..clearly one of her best songs!!!! A must have for any Janet fan or someone who loves to collect her singles!!!"
Alright

"Nice, solid remixes. Nothing great, nothing bad, like the album this single came from. Here's a breakdown:1) "Radio Edit" -- 20 seconds shorter than the album version.2) "Mellow Mix" -- Mellow is a pretty good description. It's rather soft and dreamy sounding, without the harder percussion of the original. I like this version a lot more than the album version. Q-Tip isn't in this mix, by the way.3) "Nellee Hooper Master Mix" -- A sorta dark, hip hop mix, heavy bass. Q-Tip is present in this version.4) "Mellow Mix Edit" -- Two minutes shorter than the Mellow Mix.5) "Album Version" -- Hmmm.And that's it. Nothing Earth-shattering, but, like I said, I really like the Mellow Mix. It's unfortunate this wasn't release State-side in any case."
