美國歌壇天后［珍娜傑克森］──放克／靈魂／後迪斯可──［Dont Mess Up This Good Thing／別搞亂好事情］

Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess up this good thing

Well, I think youve had a long time
To get your act together
Its your move and I hope you do the right thing
You know I never want to lose you

But you must learn to play the game by the rules
Show me how much my love means to you

Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess up this good thing (what we have together)
Dont mess up, no baby

Well, forever may be
More time than anyone can offer
But all my time is spent in your corner
Heaven knows how much I love you

But if you think I can watch you play on me and understand it
Baby, youre taking far too much for granted

Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess up this good thing (what we have together)
Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess up this good thing (if you still believe)

Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess up, baby (no one can love you better)
Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess up this good thing

Got to find the right words to make you see
That you and I were meant to be
Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess it up
Dont mess up this good thing

Well, forever may be
More time than anyone can offer
But all my time is spent in your corner
Heaven knows how much I love you

But if you think I can watch you play on me and understand it
Baby, youre taking far too much for granted

Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess up this good thing (what we have together)
Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess up this good thing (if you still believe)

Dont mess up this good thing (ooh dont mess it up baby)
Dont mess up this good thing (no one can love you better)
Dont mess up this good thing (sho dont mess it up)
Dont mess up this good thing (Ive got what you need)

Dont mess up this good thing
Dont mess up this good thing (what weve got together)
Dont mess up this good thing

１９８２年９月, 美國演藝家族傑克森的小妹──１６歲的美國歌手珍娜傑克森（Janet Jackson）在A&M唱片旗下出版首張同名大碟［Janet Jackson］

製作群包括René Moore ，Angela Winbush ，Foster Sylvers ，Bobby Watson ，Jerry Weaver

當時珍娜仍年輕, 尚未形成個人的鮮明風格, 加上題材普通, 這張以舞曲流行與R&B為主的唱片僅獲得平凡樂評。

大碟共有五首主打

１９８３年，珍娜推出第五首單曲［Dont Mess Up This Good Thing／別搞亂好事物］──但只在英國發行

由Barry Sarna＆Dana Meyers＆Wardell Potts譜寫

Foster Sylvers ，Jerry Weaver製作成一首放克／靈魂／後迪斯可

旋律琅琅上口，節拍討好

只是當時珍娜未成氣候，單曲並未入榜

雖然［Janet Jackson］大碟在主流界的Billboard專輯成績不理想（＃６３）

但在副榜－黑人專輯榜＃６　名列１９８３年終＃１０　名次頗佳

至今在美國賣出２５萬張, 算差強人意的處女作表現
