Fun fact: This album is only available in US, Canada, Israel, Australia and Germany. Physical copies of the album are out of print, thus very rare, and especially hard to find in the United States. As a result, "Dream street" is Janet's hardest album to find and most sought out by die hard fans.

Similar to Janet's debut this album mostly is bubble gum soul/pop. I don't really listen to this album much either. The single "Don't Stand Another" received modest success.

Fun fact: Janet did a music video for Dream street (the song) and that was her very first music video which was shot from the Fame t.v. show set
