And in the midst of a pandemic and constant tragedy reminding us all of how fleeting and fragile life can be, we can’t be too precious about holding onto things in the hopes that ‘Maybe I’ll put this out in a few years’. It’s clear as to why Jessie wanted to re-release What’s Your Pleasure? and share these album leftovers, because they’re all good. But it comes with some slower moments too letting fans know that the sensuality Jessie showed on her albums Tough Love and Glasshouse is still there, for better or for worse. The Platinum Pleasure exclusive cuts follow in the same vein as the standard edition of the album, in that it’s dance heavy. But other than that, you could shake the titties and the cakes from “Spotlight” all the way to “Remember Where You Are”. The standard edition of What’s Your Pleasure? was already primed for a solid 35 minutes of dancing, with the exception of the dreary and far too slow “Adore You”. I don’t give a fuck that either of them were released as singles, because that didn’t stop “Overtime” getting the chop, and “Spotlight” is widely seen as the lead single for What’s Your Pleasure? anyway. Picking these two songs over “Please” and “Impossible” was a hate crime.
Yes “Adore You” and “Mirage (Don’t Stop)”, I’m looking at’cho boring asses. And why in some instances I completely understand the thought process of leaving certain songs off, I’m baffled as to why others were bumped in favour of others. The thing to note with the 6 new songs is that they are new BRAND brand new, but recorded during the original sessions for What’s Your Pleasure? and left off. 6 of which are new (at least to us), one of which is an old single and one of which is a remix to a song that I think many of us skipped on the original release. The Platinum Pleasure edition of What’s Your Pleasure? Features an additional 8 songs. Because Jessica decided that it wasn’t enough to take my wig from me in 2020, but that she was gonna take it in 2021 too. So, I had no plans nor intention of reviewing the deluxe edition of What’s Your Pleasure?, officially titled The Platinum Pleasure edition.
