If You Love Me...

... say you do... It's the show that made many white folk like myself jealous because as hard as I tried to emulate the dance moves, I could never make it work or look cool... so, everyone, get on board the "Soul Train" baby!

It's a two parter today as we continue our "Triple J Month" (Janet Jackson June)... first from 1982, here is a Janet Jackson appearance performing "Say You Do"...
