Everytime I'm trying to listen to a song on an artist's VEVO channel I get that 30 second bloody ad about Janet Jackson's greatest hits that I can't skip! I must have heard it 50 times in the past week.

Please tell me I'm not the only one suffering from this.

I wish I could tell you how it happened, but they just stopped coming up about 2/3 months ago.

Me! I do not care for having to sit through a Janet Jackson ad for 30 seconds -_-

And it's an ad for her "greatest hits". What hits?!?!?

Lol, what hits? She's had nearly 40 Top 40 hits. That's just in the UK, tons more elsewhere too.

I think all my friends and I now hate Janet thanks to her Vevo adds. We threw a party the night before last and again last night. We set YouTube up to my large speakers and let everyone add to a giant playlist.

In between every song (there was over 100) Janet came on. Everytime I heard the line;

"It's all for you", I died a little inside. Now it's still the same. I've gone right off Vevo.

However I didn't know that adblock stops Vevo adds because they're already integrated into the player. I'll have to give that a try as I'm using Firefox 5 now.

Janet hasn't plagued me since last week when me and my friend decided to listen to moist and warmth off Damita Jo!

VEVO is rubbish. Simply search for a song, then type "lyrics" after it. You will see what I mean when you do it, you normally find the best quality sound and quicker loading times without any crap. And you get the lyrics on the screen too. Vevo doesn't like my connection, keeps stoppng and starting vids.

And VEVO videos are quieter than lyrics videos, so I highly recommend just doing what Charcole says.
