Song information [link]
The Chris Cox-produced megamix contains thirteen of Jackson's past singles, and was released prior to the lead single from 2004's Damita Jo, "Just a Little While". During the production of the remix, Cox's studio in California was ravaged by a wildfire, and the DJ had to evacuate it midway through the project.[2] The single entered the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play at number thirty-four and charted for eleven weeks, peaking at number three in early March 2004.[3]
The full megamix includes (in order of appearance) with hip hop beat: That's the Way Love Goes", "Son of a Gun (I Betcha Think This Song Is About You)", "If", "Got 'til It's Gone", "Doesn't Really Matter", while the hip hop beat becomes house beat: "Go Deep", "You Want This", with house beat: "All for You", "I Get Lonely", "Someone to Call My Lover", "Throb", "Again", and "Together Again".
The single was released in several international territories but was not eligible for mainstream charts as it was not released commercially. The only version available on a commercial format is the Chris Cox Radio Edit which appears as a B-side to the UK CD single of "Just a Little While".

A music video for "Janet Megamix 04" was produced using the Radio Edit version of the track and consists of a montage of footage from Jackson's other videos used in the single. The video has never been released commercially, but can be found on YouTube.

Megamix
A megamix is a medley remix containing multiple songs in rapid succession. There may be only one verse or even just a brief chorus of each song used, sometimes in addition to samples of the same or other songs. To unify the songs together smoothly, a single backing beat may be added as background throughout the megamix, although this is not a must. This backing beat is kept basic so as to simplify mixing and to not compete with the music. These mixes are usually several minutes long at minimum, going up to a half-hour or an hour, or even more sometimes.
Ultimix is known for "flashback medleys" producing at least one or two every year based on popular songs of the year. Each is about 15 minutes long, usually with at least that many songs if not more.
"Album megamixes" feature all tracks from a particular album edited and compiled into one continuous medley. The "artist megamix" is also popular, including songs spanning a musician's career, with prolific artists such as Michael Jackson having more than one, usually from different remixers. Duran Duran created a megamix single from their own hits for the 1990 greatest-hits album Decade: Greatest Hits. Subsequently, artists such as Madonna, Britney Spears, and Janet Jackson have also released megamixes as singles in order to promote their greatest hits albums or in the latter's case, studio album. Many megamixes are bootlegs.
Megamix (Technotronic song)
"Megamix" is a song recorded by Belgian Eurodance group Technotronic. It was released as a single only and comprises the four previous singles taken from their first studio album, Pump Up the Jam: The Album.

by: C.C. CatchTake, your chance for paradise
I'm looking in your eyes
Be mine, be mine tonight
Yeah, I'm feeling like a fool
'Cause you still answer me :
Spend the night with me
REFRAIN:
I can lose my heart tonight
If you love me, feel allright
This is just the night for me and you
I can lose my heart tonight
By you lonely deep inside
There's something in the air tonight
I can feel it every where
There's magic in the air
Be mine, be mine tonight
Yeah, I feel so hypnoticed
I feel like paradise
I see heaven in your eyes
Take me in your arms
Hold me close tonight
Take my heart away
Take me to the night
REFRAIN
Heartache,heartache
Heart was gold
Oh,she hurt you
It's stone cold.
Lonely,lonely
Your wasted years
You're a winner with bad souvernirs.
You're a hero,you're a man
You're a winner,take my hand.
REFRAIN:
'Cause you are young
You will always be so strong
Hold on tight to your dreams,hold on.
You are right,don't give up -( baby,baby,babe)
'Cause you are young
You are right then you are wrong
You're a hero
next day you're down
So hold on to your dreams.
All or nothing you can give
Live your life,love to live.
Oh man,oh man
Feel the night
Be strong enough till the morning light.
You're a hero,you're a man
You to tough to ,lose this game.
REFRAIN
'Cause you are young!
Love, will make a high class fool
Oh takes your heart and break the rules
Oh, touch your heart
Oh, touch tour soul
Years may come and years may go
Oh heart is high - the heart is low
It's strange and sometimes it makes you blue
'Cause breaking up, it's hard to do
REFRAIN:
We are livin'
We are livin' in a heartbreak hotel
I'm feeling there's no love you can say
I'm shooting from my heart
Shadows of the dark
We're livin' and we're lost without love
We're living' in a heartbreak hotel
Anyone who has a heart, oh, can tell
The eyes of a child
Are weak and are wild
We are livin' in a heartbreak hotel
Love will keep you always young
Oh you have sorrows - you have fun
Oh, touch your heart
Oh, touch your soul
More you live the more you love, oh see
the stars on the sky above
It's strange and sometimes it makes you blue
'Cause breaking up it's hard to do
