"'''All for You'''" is a song by American singer-songwriter [[Janet Jackson]], from her seventh studio album of the [[All for You (Janet Jackson album)|same name]] (2001). Written and produced by Jackson along with her collaborators [[Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis]], the song is a [[dance-pop]] and [[Contemporary R&B|R&B]] track with influences of [[Nu-disco|neo-disco]] and [[funk]] that heavily samples "[[The Glow of Love]]" by [[Change (band)|Change]]. Lyrically, it is about flirting with someone on the dance floor, being a reflection of the singer's state of mind at the time. It was released to radio stations as the [[lead single]] from the record in the United States on March 6, 2001, by [[Virgin Records]], becoming the first single to be added to every [[pop radio|pop]], [[rhythmic contemporary|rhythmic]], and [[urban radio]] format within its first week of release. |
|||
"All for You" received positive reviews from [[music critics]], who complimented the usage of the sample. In the United States, the track peaked atop the [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]] for seven weeks, making it the longest-reigning hit of the year after setting the record for the highest debut of a song which was not commercially available in the country. To date, it is Jackson's tenth and last number one Hot 100 hit in the United States, and was certified [[RIAA certification|platinum]] by the [[Recording Industry Association of America]] (RIAA). "All for You" also attained success worldwide, peaking at number one in Canada and South Africa, while reaching the top 10 in countries like Australia, France, and the United Kingdom. |
|||
The music video for "All for You" was directed by [[Dave Meyers (director)|Dave Meyers]] and takes place in a colorful [[2D computer graphics|two-dimensional]] world. It received several nominations at the [[2001 MTV Video Music Awards]], and it won Best Dance Video at the [[International Dance Music Awards|31st Annual International Dance Music Awards]]. Jackson performed the track several times, including on the inaugural ''[[MTV Icon]]'' special, which honored her legacy and influence in the music industry, and was later added to setlists of all of her concert tours, the last being the [[Janet Jackson: Together Again]] tour (2023). "All for You" won several accolades, including the prize for [[Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording|Best Dance Recording]] at the [[44th Annual Grammy Awards]], and was referenced on the track "[[Snow on the Beach]]" (2022) by [[Taylor Swift]] featuring [[Lana Del Rey]]. |

==Background and development== |
|||
In 2000, Jackson was separated from [[René Elizondo Jr.]], exposing their secret nine-year marriage to the public as he filed for divorce, leading to intense media scrutiny.<ref name=mtvnews>{{cite news|last=Mancini|first=Rob|title=Update: Janet Jackson Faces Divorce, Drug Lawsuit|url=https://www.mtv.com/news/qpcg5l/update-janet-jackson-faces-divorce-drug-lawsuit|access-date=October 24, 2022 |publisher=[[MTV News]]|date=June 1, 2000}}</ref> Amidst the divorce, Jackson started working on a new album, which was described as "upbeat, fun and carefree", in contrast to the dark and sexually explicit previous record ''[[The Velvet Rope]]'' (1997).<ref name=mtvnews2>{{cite news|last=VanHorn|first=Teri|title=Janet Jackson Readying Upbeat, Carefree Album|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1439001/janet-jackson-readying-upbeat-carefree-album.jhtml|access-date=February 21, 2014|publisher=MTV News|date=February 2, 2001}}</ref> The singer's producer [[Jimmy Jam]] stated, "This record now, even though it may not be the best of times in her personal life, she feels that the future is bright... She's excited about music and about life in general. She's excited about what the next year will hold for her", and revealed that it would continue her tradition of "happy records" which "have always traditionally been the more successful records", but "with kind of a nod to the dance music of the '80s".<ref name=mtvnews2/> Jackson herself characterized the album, titled ''[[All for You (Janet Jackson album)|All for You]]'', as being "about love, the different levels of love. It's a very happy album. I'm always writing about what is going on in my life, what I'm feeling at the moment".<ref>{{cite web|last=Norris|first=John|url=http://www.mtv.com/bands/archive/j/jackson_janet01/|title=Janet: Feels So Right|accessdate=July 25, 2023|publisher=[[MTV]]|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20020210222145/http://www.mtv.com/bands/archive/j/jackson_janet01/|archivedate=February 10, 2002|url-status=dead}}</ref> |

Before starting a new project, Jackson and her longtime producers [[Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis]] usually listen to older songs together to find inspiration. One of the tracks the producers played for the singer was [[italo disco]] band [[Change (band)|Change]]'s "[[The Glow of Love]]" (1980), with lead vocals by [[Luther Vandross]]. Jackson did not know the song, but Jam wanted to [[Sampling (music)|sample]] it as he used to play it when he was a DJ, and thought it was a perfect fit to Jackson's lyrics for "All for You".<ref name=bronson>{{Cite book|last=Bronson|first=Fred|author-link=Fred Bronson|title=The Billboard Book of Number 1 Hits|publisher=[[Billboard Books]]|year=2003|page=912|isbn=978-0-8230-7677-2}}</ref> Jam wrote the line "All the girls at the party" after Jackson had done all the vocals for the track, which she appreciated. It originally came in the middle of the number, but it was moved to the beginning after her manager suggested it would be cool if the song started like that.<ref name=bronson/> During a photo shoot for a magazine at Jam and Lewis' studio, she requested "All for You" to be played several times; after the fifth play, her makeup artist, the camera assistant, the hairstylist and everybody involved was "dancing around singing this song", according to the producer. Although the recording sessions for ''All for You'' were not finished at that point, Jackson told the producers that she wanted to release the track as the first single from the project after the photo shoot, as it was the first song she wanted people to hear from her after being absent from the public eye for an extended period of time.<ref name=bronson/> |

Lyrically, the song explores Jackson flirting with someone while she is in a night club: "All my girls at the party, look at that body, shakin' that thing like you never did see. Got a nice package alright, guess I'm gonna have to ride it tonight",<ref name=clash/> but gets disappointed by his inability to approach and ask her for a dance: "Can't be afraid or keep me waiting too long, before you know it I'll be outta here, I'll be gone".<ref name=10ofthebest/> Shahzaib Hussain from ''[[Clash (magazine)|Clash]]'' commented that the lyrics manifest "having the best night out with your girls",<ref name=clash/> while Laura Sinagra wrote on the book ''[[The Rolling Stone Album Guide|The New Rolling Stone Album Guide]]'' what it "conjures sexy girl-talk fun under a disco ball".<ref>{{cite book|chapter=Janet Jackson|last=Harris|first=Keith|title=[[The Rolling Stone Album Guide|The New Rolling Stone Album Guide]]|editor-last1=Brackett|editor-first1=Nathan|editor-last2=Hoard|editor-first2=Christian|publisher=[[Simon & Schuster]]|edition=4th|year=2004|location=New York|pages=[https://archive.org/details/newrollingstonea00brac/page/411/mode/2up 411]|isbn=0-7432-0169-8}}</ref> Kovie Biakolo of ''[[New York (magazine)|Vulture]]'' said it characterizes the anticipation and "the thrill of flirting with someone who has caught your eye, from the dance floor", as well as the singer's state of mind at the time, as she "let the world know that she was single and ready and willing to try for a lighter kind of love, one more time".<ref name=vulture/> Jackson based the lyrics on her experiences seeing people at clubs who were attracted to her but too intimidated to approach her, which she described as "pretty funny".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://the-raft.com/feature12|title=A New Janet Delivers Us a New Album|accessdate=July 25, 2023|publisher=[[EMI|The Raft]]|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20040601122056/http://the-raft.com/feature12|archivedate=June 1, 2004|url-status=dead}}</ref> |

Chuck Taylor from ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' considered it "a veritable vitamin shot in the arm for the airwaves", and "as playful and joyous as the best from Jackson's deep uptempo catalog".

"All for You" was referenced on the track "[[Snow on the Beach]]" by [[Taylor Swift]] featuring [[Lana Del Rey]], present on Swift's tenth studio album ''[[Midnights]]'' (2022), on the line "Now I'm all for you like Janet".

"All for You" on YouTube |
"All for You" is a song by American singer-songwriter Janet Jackson, from her seventh studio album of the same name (2001). Written and produced by Jackson along with her collaborators Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, the song is a dance-pop and R&B track with influences of neo-disco and funk that heavily samples "The Glow of Love" by Change. Lyrically, it is about flirting with someone on the dance floor, being a reflection of the singer's state of mind at the time. It was released to radio stations as the lead single from the record in the United States on March 6, 2001, by Virgin Records, becoming the first single to be added to every pop, rhythmic, and urban radio format within its first week of release.
"All for You" received positive reviews from music critics, who complimented the usage of the sample. In the United States, the track peaked atop the Billboard Hot 100 for seven weeks, making it the longest-reigning hit of the year after setting the record for the highest debut of a song which was not commercially available in the country. To date, it is Jackson's tenth and last number one Hot 100 hit in the United States, and was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). "All for You" also attained success worldwide, peaking at number one in Canada and South Africa, while reaching the top 10 in countries like Australia, France, and the United Kingdom.
The music video for "All for You" was directed by Dave Meyers and takes place in a colorful two-dimensional world. It received several nominations at the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards, and it won Best Dance Video at the 31st Annual International Dance Music Awards. Jackson performed the track several times, including on the inaugural MTV Icon special, which honored her legacy and influence in the music industry, and was later added to setlists of all of her concert tours, the last being the Janet Jackson: Together Again tour (2023). "All for You" won several accolades, including the prize for Best Dance Recording at the 44th Annual Grammy Awards, and was referenced on the track "Snow on the Beach" (2022) by Taylor Swift featuring Lana Del Rey.
Background and development
In 2000, Jackson was separated from René Elizondo Jr., exposing their secret nine-year marriage to the public as he filed for divorce, leading to intense media scrutiny.[1] Amidst the divorce, Jackson started working on a new album, which was described as "upbeat, fun and carefree", in contrast to the dark and sexually explicit previous record The Velvet Rope (1997).[2] The singer's producer Jimmy Jam stated, "This record now, even though it may not be the best of times in her personal life, she feels that the future is bright... She's excited about music and about life in general. She's excited about what the next year will hold for her", and revealed that it would continue her tradition of "happy records" which "have always traditionally been the more successful records", but "with kind of a nod to the dance music of the '80s".[2] Jackson herself characterized the album, titled All for You, as being "about love, the different levels of love. It's a very happy album. I'm always writing about what is going on in my life, what I'm feeling at the moment".[3]
Before starting a new project, Jackson and her longtime producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis usually listen to older songs together to find inspiration. One of the tracks the producers played for the singer was italo disco band Change's "The Glow of Love" (1980), with lead vocals by Luther Vandross. Jackson did not know the song, but Jam wanted to sample it as he used to play it when he was a DJ, and thought it was a perfect fit to Jackson's lyrics for "All for You".[4] Jam wrote the line "All the girls at the party" after Jackson had done all the vocals for the track, which she appreciated. It originally came in the middle of the number, but it was moved to the beginning after her manager suggested it would be cool if the song started like that.[4] During a photo shoot for a magazine at Jam and Lewis' studio, she requested "All for You" to be played several times; after the fifth play, her makeup artist, the camera assistant, the hairstylist and everybody involved was "dancing around singing this song", according to the producer. Although the recording sessions for All for You were not finished at that point, Jackson told the producers that she wanted to release the track as the first single from the project after the photo shoot, as it was the first song she wanted people to hear from her after being absent from the public eye for an extended period of time.[4]
Release
In February 2001, MTV News revealed that the first release from the album would be "All for You", whose title was also being considered for the name of the album; it would be sent to radio stations in the following weeks, with an accompanying video being filmed shortly thereafter.[2] Jam described the track as an "'80s-sounding" dance number, which "epitomizes the disc's happy vibe", he said.[2] On February 27, 2001, "All for You" was made available for download to radio stations as the lead single from the album after being leaked the day prior.[5] On March 6, Virgin Records officially sent the track to contemporary hit radio and rhythmic contemporary stations,[6][7] and delivered to urban adult contemporary radios a week later.[8] It was made available commercially as a 7-inch vinyl, 12-inch vinyl, cassette, and CD single on March 27, 2001.[9] On April 2, "All for You" was sent to adult contemporary radios in the region,[10] and was released as a maxi CD single in Australia on the same day.[11] In the United Kingdom, the track received a commercial release on April 9, 2001.[12] Afterwards, the song was included on Jackson's greatest hits albums Number Ones (2009) and Icon: Number Ones (2010).[13][14]
Recording and composition
"All for You" was recorded at Flyte Tyme Studios in Edina, Minnesota. It was written and produced by Jackson and her longtime collaborators Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. Due to the sample's usage, Wayne Garfield, David Romani, and Mauro Malavasi also received songwriting credits.[15] Instrumentation included guitar by David Barry, and drums by Alex Richbourg, who also did MIDI programming; Jam and Lewis played all additional instruments on the track. It was recorded and mixed by Steve Hodge, with assistance by Brad Yost and Xavier Smith, and mastered by Brian "Big Bass" Gardner at Bernie Grundman Mastering in Hollywood, along with all tracks present on All for You.[15]
Musically, "All for You" is a dance-pop and R&B song[16][17] with influences of funk and neo-disco.[18][19][20] The track is set in common time with a moderate groove tempo of 112 beats per minute.[21] Composed in the key of G major, Jackson's vocal range spans from G3 to E5.[21] It prominently samples italo disco band Change's "The Glow of Love".[22] Jackson did not know the track or its songwriter, but she found it "so beautiful" and made her dance, and for this reason she included it on the record.[23] For The Guardian's Michael Cragg, the track simultaneously references the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s decades musically,[24] writing in another article for the same publication that it "feels like a throwback to the effortless, loved-up optimism of her 80s imperial phase".[25] Eric Henderson from Slant Magazine described "All for You" as a "sex jam that sounds like a carnival ride".[26] Tom Sinclair of Entertainment Weekly noted that the track "recalls the old McFadden & Whitehead positivity anthem 'Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now'",[27] with some reviewers also comparing the composition to the work of Chic.[28][29]
Lyrically, the song explores Jackson flirting with someone while she is in a night club: "All my girls at the party, look at that body, shakin' that thing like you never did see. Got a nice package alright, guess I'm gonna have to ride it tonight",[20] but gets disappointed by his inability to approach and ask her for a dance: "Can't be afraid or keep me waiting too long, before you know it I'll be outta here, I'll be gone".[24] Shahzaib Hussain from Clash commented that the lyrics manifest "having the best night out with your girls",[20] while Laura Sinagra wrote on the book The New Rolling Stone Album Guide what it "conjures sexy girl-talk fun under a disco ball".[30] Kovie Biakolo of Vulture said it characterizes the anticipation and "the thrill of flirting with someone who has caught your eye, from the dance floor", as well as the singer's state of mind at the time, as she "let the world know that she was single and ready and willing to try for a lighter kind of love, one more time".[31] Jackson based the lyrics on her experiences seeing people at clubs who were attracted to her but too intimidated to approach her, which she described as "pretty funny".[32]
Critical reception
Chuck Taylor from Billboard considered it "a veritable vitamin shot in the arm for the airwaves", and "as playful and joyous as the best from Jackson's deep uptempo catalog". He also wrote that the song "audaciously ignores top 40's current trend toward strict R&B inflection" and was "mainstream party pop at its best".[33] Laviea Thomas of Clash commented that "from the funky bass plucks to her smooth vocal delivery", the song was one of Jackson's signature up-tempo tracks.[20] Mark Lindores from Classic Pop wrote that the track was part of the "feelgood songs which are the beating heart of the album".[34] Rolling Stone's Anthony DeCurtis praised the song for "swirl[ing] on the dizzying energy of a disco-era sample".[35] Ethan Brown from New York opined that Jackson was at her best "riding great samples" from the disco era,[36] while Wall of Sound's Gary Gruff wrote that it employs "old-school conventions without lapsing into retrograde".[28] According to Michael Cragg of The Guardian, the track "luxuriates in its post-disco influences, while lyrically it's Jackson at her cheeky best".[25] Devdoot Majumdar of The Tech called it "frothy dance pop", noting the song had Jackson's "signature elaborateness" and was "radio-ready material".[37]
For Cyd Jaymes from Dotmusic, "All for You" was a "dreamy slice of supremely steamy R&B", as well as "the soundtrack to some sweaty summer lovin'".[17] Bianca Gracie, writing for Grammy.com, noted that Jackson's joyride was "near-tangible" on the song, and was "pure sunshine captured in a song".[38] Stephen Thomas Erlewine, senior editor for AllMusic, said that the song would maintain Jackson and her producers' reputation as the "leading lights of contemporary urban soul".[39] Piers Martin of NME called the song a "faultless funk affair",[18] while Anthony Carew from Neumu described it as a "fine neo-disco/'80s-retro collage",[40] Tom Sinclair of Entertainment Weekly described it as "chirpy computer pop overlaid with a silky Jackson vocal", classifying the track as "one of several nods to the ’70s that will amuse old schoolers and pass over the heads of youngsters".[27] David Browne from the same publication wrote that the song was "a frothy butt shaker and skilled throwback to old-school disco", calling it "another Jackson package with pretty ribbons but little inside".[41] Ed Henderson from Slant Magazine noted that what was striking about the song was not its "unabashed frankness", but "the atmosphere of airless frivolity around it".[26] According to Stereogum's Tom Breiham, "All for You" was a "fairly slight, minor track" in comparison to Jackson's other number-one singles, but felt that "its charms are real", writing that he loves the way that Jackson sings on the track.[42]
Commercial performance
In the United States, "All for You" made radio airplay history, as it was added to every pop, rhythmic and urban radio stations on its first week of release. Teri VanHorn of MTV dubbed Jackson "Queen of Radio" for this feat, writing that "no other song has conquered all reporting stations in its first week at radio, let alone mastered three formats in one week".[43] The record was later broken by Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" (2011), although Gaga's single was able to achieve the feat with a radio airplay deal to play the song hourly.[44] Its premature release to radio outlets caused the track to debut at number 71 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart after a day and a half of airplay, generating an audience impression of six million.[5] "All for You" debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart at number 14 on the issue dated March 17, 2001. It became the highest debut ever for a single that was not commercially available, as well as the highest entry on the chart since 1999.[45][46] The single topped the chart following its commercial release, becoming the first song by a female artist of the decade to advance to number one, as well as Jackson's tenth and last number-one hit to date.[47][42] The song remained at number-one for seven consecutive weeks, becoming the year's longest-running chart-topper on the Hot 100.[48] On November 14, 2022, "All for You" was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[49]
In Canada, "All for You" topped the chart compiled by Nielsen SoundScan for the issue dated April 21, 2001, where it remained for a further week.[50][51] In Australia, the track debuted at number five on the week dated April 15, 2001, becoming Jackson's highest charting-single on the chart since "Together Again" (1997), and spent 12 weeks inside the chart.[52] It was eventually certified platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) for shipments of over 70,000 copies across the country.[53] On March 25, 2001, the track debuted at number 34 in New Zealand, and reached number two five weeks later, where it remained for a further week. It became her best-performing single since "Scream" and "Whoops Now", which reached number one in 1995. "All for You" spent a total of 17 weeks on the chart, and was certified gold by Recorded Music NZ (RMNZ) for sales of over 5,000 copies of the single.[54][55] In South Africa, the single topped the charts and received a platinum certification by the Recording Industry of South Africa, denoting sales of 50,000 copies in the region.[56]
In the United Kingdom, "All for You" debuted and peaked at number three on the week dated April 21, 2001, behind Emma Bunton's "What Took You So Long?" and Shaggy's "It Wasn't Me", becoming Jackson's fourth single to reach number three on the chart.[57][58] It spent a total of 15 weeks on the chart, and received a silver certification by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) for sales of 200,000 copies in the United Kingdom.[59] In April 2021, it was revealed by the Official Charts Company that the single was Jackson's third most downloaded track in the region, accumulating 10.3 million streams.[58] The song attained lower success in Scotland, peaking at number 11.[60] Elsewhere in Europe, "All for You" was also successful. It reached the top 10 in both Belgium's Flemish and Walloon regions,[61][62] and was certified gold by the Belgian Entertainment Association (BEA), denoting sales of 25,000 copies of the single.[63] The track reached number three in France, and received a gold certification by the Syndicat National de l'édition Phonographique (SNEP), for sales of 250,000 units.[64][65] The single's commercial performance in the European countries helped it attain a peak of number three on the European Hot 100 Singles chart, on the issue dated April 23, 2001.[66]
Accolades
On the 2001 Billboard Music Awards, "All for You" received nominations for Top Hot 100 Single of the Year and Top-Selling R&B/Hip-Hop Single,[67] It was also nominated at the Lady of Soul Awards for Best R&B/Soul Single, Solo,[68] and at the Teen People Awards in the category of Hottest Song of 2001.[69] The single won the Record of the Year at the Japan Radio Popular Disks Awards.[70] In 2002, "All for You" went on to win the prize for Best Dance Recording at the 44th Annual Grammy Awards,[71] also winning the accolade for Most Played Song at the BMI Pop Awards,[72] as well as an award for Best Dance Song of the Year at the ASCAP Rhythm & Soul Awards.[73]
The music video for "All for You" was nominated at the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards in the categories of Video of the Year, Best Female Video, Best Dance Video, and Best Choreography, but lost all nominations.[74] At the inaugural BET Awards 2001, which took place in Las Vegas, Nevada, the video received a nomination for Video of the Year, but lost to OutKast's "Ms. Jackson".[75] The clip was also nominated for a prize in the category of Outstanding Music Video at the 33rd NAACP Image Awards.[76] The video for "All for You" went on to win the accolade for Best Dance Video at the 31st Annual International Dance Music Awards, while winning the Best Choreography category at the MVPA Awards.[77][78]
Music video
The music video for "All for You" was directed by Dave Meyers, who also wrote its concept. Explaining her decision to cast Meyers to direct the video, Jackson said, "I did look at different video reels, but I was already familiar with Dave's work. He's done a lot of stuff on MTV. I was just watching videos and saw this name pop up. I didn't know if he was young or old. You just say, 'This kid is good.' You see his videos and see them getting better and better and he's only 28!".[79] Meyers would later become Jackson's frequent collaborator, directing several of her videos, including "I Want You" (2004), "Dammn Baby" (2016) e "Made for Now" (2018).[80] Jackson's three Y2K-inspired outfits in the video were designed by Jean Paul Gaultier.[81] It received its world premiere on March 9, 2001, on MTV's Total Request Live,[82] and later appeared on the special edition of All for You, as well as on the video compilation From Janet to Damita Jo: The Videos (2004).[83][84]
The clip takes place in a colorful two-dimensional world. It opens with a background of a brightly colored city with a train riding through it. A zoom-in reveals Jackson as one of its passengers, checking out a guy at the train across the aisle. At the next stop, she gets out of the train and joins her female dancers to do a dance routine. Later, the singer and her dancers are then seen at a boardwalk which resembles downtown Hollywood, where a billboard of an almost nude Jackson is seen; they perform a dance break that briefly samples several different songs, including her sister Rebbie's "Centipede" (1984), and Shannon's "Let the Music Play" (1983), as well as Jackson's own singles "The Pleasure Principle" (1987) and "Go Deep" (1998).[31][85] The visual ends with the singer spotting the man she was checking out at the train near a nightclub, who smiles at her as she waves at him before turning to leave.[86]
Vulture's Kovie Biakolo described the visual as "fun, upbeat, and subtly amorous",[31] whereas Philadelphia's Patrick Demarco considered the clip as one of the singer's sexiest dance videos, elaborating, "What's to say about Janet's big ’01 comeback video besides everything? One of her most colorful video romps, the cheeky set in a 2D world loaded with barefoot dancing, sun-kissed sets and abs by Janet that went on for days", and "Although this was the diva's last charting #1 hit, the memory of its video will last for all of Janet eternity".[87] Given its "vague outline of a storyline", Tom Breiham of Stereogum observed that the video was "really just structured as an excuse for Janet Jackson to dance".[42] Described as "a celebration of love, freedom, and joy", HotNewHipHop's Gale Love wrote that it showcases Jackson's ability "to blend her talents into an impactful work of art", and remains one of her most beloved videos.[88] Lester Fabian Brathwaite of Logo TV said it was vibrant and imaginative, but wrote that it did not "even rank in the top 10 or 15 of Janet's greatest videos", although it featured one of Jackson's best dance breaks,[89] while Neil Prince from Time Out commented that the video portrayed an "almost scarily slimline Janet".[90]
Live performances
Jackson first performed "All for You" on March 10, 2001, on the inaugural MTV Icon special, which honored her legacy and influence in the music industry, airing on MTV three days later. On the performance, she and two dancers were lowered from the ceiling, sitting on hoops, with the singer dressed all in white in a half-tuxedo, half-halter outfit, followed by a dance breakdown to "You Ain't Right".[91] Her dancers wore all-white costumes that paid homage to some Jackson's previous music videos.[92] Gayl Murphy from ABC News wrote that the singer "didn't miss a beat and was bursting with the same energy and charisma that energized America's pop music scene more than 10 years ago".[91] She then went on a promotional tour in Europe and performed "All for You" on several televised shows, including Top of the Pops and Quelli che... il Calcio.[93][94] The song was included on the setlist for the 2001–2002 All for You Tour and was performed on the first act. During the number, the stage's back wall opened up to reveal three twenty-five by ten foot video screens.[95]
On February 1, 2004, Jackson opened her set at the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show with a performance of "All for You", wearing a leather gladiator outfit designed by Alexander McQueen.[96][97][98] The show also featured 26 dancers, 360 regular band members and a 60-person drum line.[99] Her performance at the Super Bowl became notable after surprise guest Justin Timberlake accidentally exposed her breast, and is referred to as "Nipplegate".[100] Months later, during promotion for her eighth studio album Damita Jo, she performed "All for You" at MSN Music's studios in Seattle, along with other tracks from the album.[101] The song was also part of the 2008 Rock Witchu Tour, her first concert tour in seven years.[102] The following year, "All for You" was performed during Jackson's sets on The X Factor UK,[103] and at Jingle Bell Ball in the United Kingdom.[104] It was later added to her performance at the 2010 Essence Music Festival, held in New Orleans, Louisiana, which she headlined.[105] On the Number Ones, Up Close and Personal in 2011, "All for You" was included on a medley with "Doesn't Really Matter", "Escapade", "Love Will Never Do (Without You)" and "When I Think of You", with Jackson wearing a black tank top, cargo pants and combat boots; Jane Stevenson of The Winnipeg Sun called it the best medley of the show.[106]
For the 2015–2016 Unbreakable World Tour, the track was again part of the setlist.[107] According to Jason P. Woodbury from The Arizona Republic, "lusty jams" like "All for You" showcased the singer's "bawdy side" during the concert.[108] In April 2016, Jackson announced that due to family planning, all remaining dates of the tour would be postponed.[109] In 2017, the concert tour was resumed in the form of the State of the World Tour, and "All for You" was included on the setlist in a medley with "Escapade" and "When I Think of You".[110] Jackson performed the track as part of a medley of her hits during the 2018 MTV Europe Music Awards ceremony, on November 4, 2018.[111] In 2019, Jackson executed "All for You" on her Janet Jackson: Metamorphosis residency concert in Las Vegas, with a choreography reminiscent of the song's music video as noted by People's Mark Gray,[112] and was also sung by the singer on the Janet Jackson: A Special 30th Anniversary Celebration of Rhythm Nation tour as part of the encore.[113] The track was included on the 2023 Janet Jackson: Together Again tour; Matthew Allen of TheGrio noted that "reverberation from the audience's screams and stomping materialized into the air" when Jackson performed the song's video break.[114]
Usage
"All for You" was performed by Jason Derulo as part of a dance tribute to Jackson on the BET Awards 2015, held at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on June 28, 2015; Ciara and Tinashe, who were also part of the tribute, performed "If" and "The Pleasure Principle" respectively, and all three did a performance of "Rhythm Nation" at the tribute's closing.[115]
"All for You" was referenced on the track "Snow on the Beach" by Taylor Swift featuring Lana Del Rey, present on Swift's tenth studio album Midnights (2022), on the line "Now I'm all for you like Janet". Some news outlets pointed out that Jackson sending Swift flowers after the infamous moment at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards when Kanye West invaded the stage during Swift's acceptance speech may have inspired the inclusion.[116] Jackson later acknowledged the reference by posting a video of herself listening to the track on her social media networks, smiling at the point where the vocalists sing the line mentioning "All for You".[117]
