Denise Sheppard of '' Rolling Stone '' commented that , " Without question , it was one of the night 's most beautiful and verklempt moments arrived out of nowhere forty-five minutes into the set . It was the first time that a break in the action occurred - no dancers , no music -- and as a close-up captured Jackson looking genuinely happy , the audience spontaneously burst into what became a five-minute standing ovation . Looking on , shocked by the sincerity of the moment , she shed sincere tears , simultaneously overwhelmed and overjoyed . ' I love you so much , Vancouver . Thank you ' . " The February 16 , 2002 final date of the tour at the Aloha Stadium in Hawaii , was broadcast by HBO , and included a performance of it . The medley was also added to the setlist at its DVD release , '' Janet : Live in Hawaii '' , in 2002 . On the Number Ones : Up Close and Personal tour , Jackson used a diamond-encrusted lavender gown to perform a ballad medley of " Nothing " , " Come Back to Me " and " Let 's Wait Awhile " . Annabel Ross of Sydney 's " Everguide " praised Janet for " hitting some impressive high notes herself " . In 1992 , saxophonist Marion Meadows covered the song from his album '' Keep It Right There '' with additional vocals by Will Downing .
