LYRICS
First thing that you’ll notice is some separation from each other
Yes it’s a lie we’ve been believing since time immemorial
There was an apple there was a snake there was division
There was a split there was a conflict in the fabric of life
One became two and then everyone was out for themselves
Everyone was pitted against each other conflict ruled the realm
All our devotions and temperaments are pulled from different wells
We seem to easily forget we are made of the same cells
To my boy all that energy so vital
Love your hues and your blues in equal measure
Your comings and your goings away
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze
Second thing you’ll notice is that often we think that there’s not enough
It might feel dark it might feel lonely and you wonder why you’re here
You may be overcome with darkness and a sense of hopelessness
But it won’t matter if you keep the cord connected to the oneness
To my girl oh your innocence and fire
When you reach out I am here hell or high water
this nest is never going away
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze
And this cord is unbreakable
This pilot light is there in your pocket
And this bond beyond unshakeable
Even if we all forget, all at the same time
If we forget at the same time
To my boy my precious gentle warrior
To your sweetness
And your strength and exploring
May this bond stay with you through all your days
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze
To my girl oh your innocence and fire
When you reach out I am here hell or high water
this nest is never going away
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze
To my boy
first thing that you’ll notice is that everything is temporary
To my girl
next thing you might notice is that we will always be a family
to my boy
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze
#AlanisMorissette #SuchPrettyForksInTheRoad #Ablaze - เพลง
Rolling Stone said she's not edgy anymore, those who walk that edge implode. It's called growth, and expansion on ones journey in life. So screw you Rolling Stone, you didn't grow~ beautiful song.
Well said.
Rolling stones also put out a how Americans are disillusioned in Trumps America well not I.And nothing they say of music has ever been correct tbh.
totally agree! Its gorgeous and she is radiant!
💯👍
Oh man Rolling Stone😆 they actually slammed her first album so hard, the awesome Jagged Little Pill ... Rolling Stone doesn't know Jack Lol
She’s always been so transparent and autobiographical I love her
I only realized now that this video is new. I thought it was an old one
Amazing song really makes you feel the impact of life's stages and how much we change as people great job!
Me too! Such incredible integrity in everything!
@Mike Bailey I think you should listen to the song again, friend.
💕😘☘🤘✌
In my 20s, Alanis sang what I needed to hear. She's still doing it in my 40s... I'm forever a fan
Me too. I can't wait to listen to her music in 20 years!
Sooooo true
Always my 2nd fave 🎉
I listened to her as an angry teenager, and now I listen to her as a 43 year old mom. Still feel very connected!
Well said.
I cry EVERY SINGLE TIME I listen to this song. The message is so meaningful and deep and makes me remind of the incredible journey that is to be a mother. Thanks, Alanis. Never stop writing your beautiful songs!
Me too! My sister shared it with me after I became a mother for the first time and now I’m pregnant with baby number 3 and it still gets me!
Uh, welp, to Rolling Stone and other commentators, *I think she's edgy AF.* Now more than ever, actually. Who else has the guts to show the mess and complication of being a parent while also trying to stay a person? Who else is willing to put aside their ego and show that level of vulnerability and not matching some manufactured "ideal" of what a (female) performer is supposed to be? This is absolutely next level. Alanis is and always has been incredibly raw, truthful, authentic, and present, and that's what we show up for. ❤
This!! She is being real, and that in itself is edgy as hell when the industry is so fake. I was 15 when I first heard Alanis she was relatable to me then as she is now with being a mother. She is growing as her fans grow and it's an amazing talent.
NAILED IT 👏
Yes! Clearly they didn’t listen to the whole album; Reasons I Drink and Reckoning are as real as it gets.
Nah. It’s just boring.
you're right and you should say it!
Jagged Little Pill was the soundtrack to my teenage years. Now this is the soundtrack to my journey through motherhood. Thanks friend, for this.
I agree with you!
Can't have kids, but I agree that I grew with JLP and change through the musical journey her albums take us on. I wrote a harmony to 'No Pressure over Cappuccino' and that song is the biggest for me. She is a talented, evolving musician and woman. I love what she has been for so many like myself 💜🙏🤟👍😊
Yes!🙏😊
Jennifer Towns omg that song is just my very fav of AM 💙 no pressure over cappuccino
This x100! Jagged Little Pill was the second CD I ever owned (Tragic Kingdom was the first) and it really spoke to me, even that young and this new album has been even more relatable to me as a mom now.
It’s impossible for this women to write a bad song. Absolute legend.
I was determined not to like this.
I ended up liking it though.
Now I feel like this song is my guilty pleasure.
she doesn't write anything is this the problem :)
@@westelaudio943 I felt the same, thought there's no way I will like this before hitting play. It's a really nice one from her.😊
Yeah. ❤❤❤❤❤
Woman*
Alanis, thank you for this gift. Ablaze was the last thing my mother and I shared together prior to her death in NOV 2020. Ours was a strained relationship for many years and my mother saw the Tonight Show performance, prompting her to mention it in one of our rare conversations (she had grown very ill in her final years and 1000 miles separated us, plus COVID). I had just purchased the brilliant "Such Pretty Forks..." album and our mutual fondness for the poignant lyrics that capture the unique bond between mother and child drew us closer than we had been for too long. In the conversations, prompted by the poetry of this song, she shared for the first time in too many years that she loved me, and I shared the same with her. A few months later I visited in person and we shared what turned out to be her final meal together; she died a few days later. Thank you Alanis for the gift of this song, a treasure which was the catalyst to reunite mother and child-the perfect tribute to a perfect so. God bless you and your beautiful family!
That is beautiful. I'm sure AM got all the feels reading this. I know I did. I'm glad you were able to reconnect w/your mom. I had a tumultuous relationship with mine and she died with it remaining as such.
Rhque, I'm very sorry for your loss. I know the feeling. Ty for sharing 😢
I’ve rarely seen someone stand in motherhood in such an all-encompassing way as Alanis does. It’s really moving, because she’s also so sincere about it. Motherhood can be a miracle, sure, but it’s also sometimes a slog, and a battle, and a thing that billions of individuals have experienced before you.
And of course, the fact that she proclaims her mission statement as being keeping that fire in her children’s eyes ablaze, beyond any ego-driven wishes she might have for them is such a commendable, powerful sentiment. I personally think you should only start a family if it’s fueled by that selfless desire.
Well said!
it's because she's high-level
So well said indeed, and yes it can be really tough being a mom, but when you do it unselfishly and with unconditional love it's truly rewarding 💖
It's rare to come across such well articulated discourse in a comment section. What a lovely, honest sentiment.
Well said. Thank you.
It was year 1999 and I was visiting Amsterdam and was looking around at a music store.. Suddenly, a familiar face stood not too far from me browsing the stacks of cds. It felt really strange, I was alone in a foreign land but this face seemed uncannily familiar..i mustered up my courage and approached this person. When I was about an arms length away from this person, I said under my breathe "Alanis!" it's really her in her trademark jet black longhair in a loose ponytail and ethnic clothing. She turned and gave me a smile and wave a little. I returned her smile with a hi and walked out of the store beaming. I didn't want to intrude her alone time. The next day on a boat ride along the rivers, I saw a huge poster bearing Alanis photo in concert. And that cemented that I've met one of my fav singer/musician face to face. A very happy day it was.
I wonder what Alanis thinks when (and if) she reads these comments about her music!! So many thoughtful, thought provoking, emotional words, that SHE captured with her music in our lives, that she knows nothing about. Memories, proms, graduations, teen life, new babies, death. I cannot imagine doing this for millions of people I do not know with my words and my voice?! This is truly powerful!!
Wow what an amazing story xx
❤
You're lucky that you didn't have to go to her concert just to meet her.
Good for you buddy.
@@retrocysper3709 yes! Oh my! Come to think of it. You are correct. 🤔🙂
This song can be taken as Alanis talking to her children, or the great mother talking to all of us
I love this interpretation
Imagine a world where every child grew up with this as their mother and/or father's mantra...thank you Alanis for nurturing these young souls, great song!
Utopia
I was just thinking that, how amazing it would have been to hear something like this instead of cutdowns over our mistakes and questions
I almost cry everytime she says "My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze"
Her song utopia Wells me up quite a bit
Omg me toooo😭😭😭😭
Lol. Me too. Even if there are no tears, my throat catches every single time.
ME TOOOOOOO
I cried basically through the song 😭
The Rolling Stone review of this album was "bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, she's not as edgy as she was 25 years ago." That was disappointing. who is supposed to be exactly the same as they were 25 years ago?!
I think good art is measured by whether it makes you feel something. This album definitely made me feel and I think Alanis Morissette and this album are remarkable.
Highly agree, get over it. Why cant musician grow. There is only one song off the new album i dont enjoy as much but in comparison to her other albums this is rare
Rolling Stone used to be good ...in the 1970s :-)
Critics' review is such a nonsense. I don't get it why some people would even read them in the first place. I'm pretty sure Alanis herself has said something in that sense at some point along the way. I mean, art is something so personal and subjective, so how can a critic judge whether it's good or not. It doesn't make any sense. I couldn't care less about what they say. I remember this one interview where the guy asked her what were her guilty pleasures and she said chocolate and the guy went on to tell her that that's not really guilty to which she responded "I guess it's not guilty. Shopping? Is that guilty? I love that I'm asking you what I should feel guilty for. Should I feel guilty for that?" [Laughs]
Everybody change along your life, every experience makes you different. It´s part of life, growing up. Nobody can be the same forever.
I don’t think it should care what critics say, I, personally as a devoted Alanis follower feel happy with the results and her artistic side, remains intact and true to her personality, without compromising her lyrics and soul.
Thank you Alanis, this is exactly the type of song we all need in times like this. Singing about unity, unconditional love and peace and meaning every word of it.
Beautifully said.
I agree
Love is the answer to conflict
I Also agree with It 😊
How is she not edgy anymore? She’s still singing about real life - authenticity. Nobody writes like this anymore.
Absolutely! She’s still number one in my book
she's such a magical lyricist.....her singing about parenthood and her mission in life restores my confidence when so many other things in the world are bad right now....thx alanis for this beautiful song and your devotion to your family..... pls don't stop writing...
AMÉN 🙏
“My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze.”
Thank you so much for that reminder. I didn’t realize how much I needed it until I heard it. I have two young kids at home, and often I get confused thinking that “My mission is to keep this house tidy”, or “My mission is to get dinner ready on time”, or “My mission is to make sure you finish your homework”. So, thanks for reminding me to refocus my microscope. ;)
Absolutely! I'm in the same boat taking care of two kids who aren't mine but love them as mine as well as having three of my own. One 21 grown and on his own doing great and a 10 yr old and almost 3 yr old. All boys of mine. Getting over 6 wks in hospital after surgery complications. Reminded me why I fought to stay alive. The universe speaks. Be blessed by what we have and the gift we were given to guide souls as trusted guardians in this place. Never,give up, never give in, never let go.
Yes
Wow! As a father, what you said really speaks to me too. Thank you!
💗
Yes that part made me cry of happiness
I've watched this video (or the one of her singing it on Fallon) probably a hundred times and it still makes me cry. "My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze" perfectly sums up what countless parents have been trying to do for their children during the pandemic. Gods bless Alanis.
Yes...I admit, just watched it for the first time in a while and it hits you in the right spots.
To my girl, when you reach out, know that I will come hell or high water. I teared up hoping my girl feels that way and grieving that I never felt that way about my own mom.
Same Alanis with her fire however this fire now burns deep, slow and steady. She has matured into a beautiful happy mother and that is a good thing. I would have hated to see her flash and burn into nothingness. She found her happy place. ❤😊
Just when I think I can't love her more, she does this. God, I'm in tears.
Right!!! Same feelings deep down inside!!! 💛💛💛💛🌞🌞🌞🌞
Yes... I know...
Saaaaame!!!
I want that giant microscope!
She is God - and she does handstands XD
As a new father of a daughter and with an older son already this song is something I really connect to. Fan of Alanis as a 17 year old and now as a 40 year old. Well done.
Me!!!!
Yeah true..! I was 20 back in 1995. I still cry when I listen to her songs.
Wow, similar experience here. Fan of Alanis since first hearing You Oughta Know at age 15, and today as a 40-year-old soon-to-be father as well. Agreed, well done.
I went to her tour w tori Amos when I was about ten because I guilt tripped my dad for always taking my brother to rock concerts and never me. He said “pick a band and we will go” and I picked her.
Now I am a mom of a little boy.
She’s been with me too.
My daily meditation has been listening to Alanis’ music and just weeping. Thank you, Alanis. Sincerely.
Damn good practice.
As a massive fan of Alanis since Jagged came out when I was 12 years old, and all due respect to her husband and family, to have her as a wife would just be awesome. Her husband must daily feel so blessed to be with someone so amazing and creative. He absolutely must be her biggest fan. You ough you ough you ough oughta know. What a worldwide legend.
What I like about her is her evolution. She and her fans matured, so the lyrics deal with a different challenge now
resireg well said
We all grow with her
Couldn't agree more. She is a legend.
Yes! I feel like I can relate to her now more than when I was younger even though there's still the same age gap.
@@lizetelliott1443 many of us have families like hers. We were the angsty teens back then. Now it will be our kids turn.
Who else smiled throughout the whole video??
Smiled and cried as well... wonderful song, wonderful singer!!
Smile while crying.. i love alanis so much😘
🙋♂️
So sweet and realistic, I bet she is a wonderful mother
Just tears 😭😭
She has taken me from an angry teen to being the “Cool Auntie” that loves her 4 nieces and 1 nephew to the sun and back with just that mission; “to help keep the light in their eyes ablaze.” Thank you, Alanis
What makes Alanis great (and has always made her great) is she speaks to truth. This hasn't changed. She's amazing as always
Ironic, was probably one of her worst
This is the angry young woman singing you oughta know. You can tell all that fire is still inside her but shining instead of burning.
Isn't it ironic? ;-)
I got one hand in my pocket and the other one is typing a reply.😊
This is perfect
E Israel Andrade E well said Sir.
Your words are so well said and so true!
I'm not a mother, but I grew up listening to Alanis, I cried during this song seeing her so happy and evolved into the amazing human/woman she is.
Ditto
me too
I am a mother and I did too
I'm not a mother, too, unfortunately! 😢
I understand motherhood for the first time...kinda, as a man
Writers of columns do so to sell. She has never written a lyric for sales. She doesn’t perform for money. She does both for love. Simple, intelligent, gifted Woman. She gets our love in return.
Such a beautiful human…
Oh, and she has a voice like no other (in a good way!)
She still has every bit of her old magic. Beautiful song.
And the song has a nice beat/rhythm. Even if yoh can't understand the lyrics, it sounds os good
Heck, if anything, her majyk got stronger. That family is so entirely blessed.
More I think ! She's Complete and knows who she is ‼️ 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 ❤️🌟❤️🌟❤️🌟❤️
As a father of 3, took me like 10 tries to get through this without tearing up.
omnipresent video I don’t really think you ( or me ) can really connect to this song , it’s a song about motherhood and that special bond , I’m sure you are a great dad , but the maternal bond between a mother and a child is unique , we are mammals after all . You can’t really understand what she feels .
@@salvolondon Way to be a douche. You have to be one of those people.
As a parent, that is our mission, to keep the light in young ones eyes ablaze. Some only have a Father or are cared for by extended or adoptive family. What a lovely reminder, don’t dim our children’s light, keep it ablaze, that is the mission of love.
You, sir, are a new age alpha male and we desperately need more of you. Your children are incredibly lucky to have you
@omnipresent I still can't get through it without crying.
Alanis should be a coach for other mothers.. she has so much knowledge and wisdom..
If this Alanis' home library, there is still hope for all of us.
She is a real person. ..a parent, and this song is just such an amazing tribute to the joys of parenthood.
Mortal a mother ... why the word mother and father has been replaced with simply parent ? She’s a mother ... which is not the same of a father . Motherhood and fatherhood are pretty much different things , just like men and women are not the same .
@@salvolondon Hey, while I agree men and women are different and have different roles and importance to a child, there is no political or social messaging behind my statement. In fact, I think most parents identify with her words. I sure do, and since I'm male, and I identify with her words as well, I used parents. I am a protector of my kids, and my job is to teach them to thrive, build, fight, and grow, and to fend off the bullshit of this world. Most importantly to step on or over others that try to limit them. To be financially well off by 30 years old using the power of the stock market. etc. etc. etc. I'm not a millennial, and therefore I don't give a crap about terminology and the "correctness" of language. I use the words I want to use..and therefore I did above.
First I saw this song when Alanis was on Jimmy Fallon with little 4 year old Onyx in her arms..."hi, mommy...hi, baby...did you just say family?...i did say family... And then I saw this video, with Souleye and all three kids...and my heart melted again. What a beautiful way to say that you love and adore your family!! You're awesome, Alanis, and I've known this for 25 years. You never cease to amaze me. ❤
It's stunning and so gorgeous and nice to have something so lovely in our days rather than death statistics and politics! This made me laugh and smile til I cried
Me too! And I couldn't stop my tears from falling. I have allays been a huge fan. I love her so much. She has allways been a great singer. The way she sang this song with her kid, hitting every note, was amazing! A beautiful song and she makes it bigger
@@lorenam1342 Oh, I've enjoyed her music and the way her mind works for like ever. *giggle* Have you ever listened to her stuff before Jagged Little Pill? It's totally different from how we know her in America, but her Canadian stuff was still very good. She's a female Gemini...and I understand that because I'm one, too...and her life struggles are just so beautiful to me.
So did i
The tenderness behind this song is the most beautiful and pure hymn of maternity, of the growing of life, and perhaps the ever-eternal faith of motherhood that us, men, fathers, find so hard to maintain, as we see life as a hard day-to-day evaluation of dry results and outcomes. Again, thank you
Screenshotting this and sending it to my sons father
Some singers are singers. A few are among the rare and true artists.
This beautiful songstress for instance..
Lovely song.
She's just as brave as she was when she first came out with JLP. What other artist would dare appear in fornt of a camera for an official video looking all glamourless with her family doing ordinary things. I love Alanis. She looks so happy. Thank you for sharing!
Alanis is living her life, and writing about where she is currently. And I absolutely love it. She is evolving, and we all need to. If you don't get it, then you don't get it. Leave it at that...
Very rare that this is said but she has DEFINATELY aged like a fine wine...more beautiful than EVER!!! Love the music AM!!
"My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze..." absolutely beautiful
For those who’ve struggled with depression, it’s understood how edgy this song and lyrics really are. Happiness and peaceful non-restlessness are well fought for.
So true, stay strong 😊
Having Alanis as your mom... Her kids have no idea how awesome that is...
She's kinda always been our "cool aunt" mom and sister so :-} we are all very lucky
@@FarieFly How r u guys retaliated? I’m curious
@@xia6767 she’s speaking in the sense of how her philosophies helped us think differently when we were younger. She mothered us in a way
I’m sure there are a lot of people who said that about you and your mom.
@@ohohvalerie why do you feel the need to respond to a compliment so passive aggressively ? Like it’s not an insult to his mother it’s just a compliment. Some people need lives and you’re one of them.
we cried all together ....with my children . Thank you
she IS still edgy...who's singing about their kids? who else is singing about being a parent (mom)
Halsey sang a song about her baby she never thought she would have due to endometriosis complications and miscarriages and now she's about to have a baby! ❤️
P!nk wrote and recorded "Cover Me in Sunshine" for and with her daughter Willow.
Alanis, because she writes about her life.
Celine dion too back when she was normal
@@Katarina23 wdym normal
Loved the song already, and now love the clip. Everytime she sings: 'My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze' I get tears in my eyes because I feel the same about my three children. Thank you Alanis for sharing this!
If you haven't already check out her clip from Jimmy Fallon. She sings Ablaze while holding her daughter. SO adorable
Saw the clip from Jimmy Fallon too, really sweet!!
@@sugarfree1223 the best!! So adorable 😍
Miguel Garcia I wish she release that as a single. Her daughter just added something so perfect and innocent to an already brilliant song.
@@Thejoshuahess Right? She's such a pro and such a nurturing mother, belting out a song flawlessly while holding Onyx and responding to her at the same time. Truly a goddess. :)
Alanis is a mother to the masses-and it's radiant feminine energy that will inevitably shift us collectively back to balance.
Thank you, Alanis.
xo
Yes! So perfectly said. We are coming back to the balance and light. Even if it is slowly.
@Skylynxify Reborn What don't you understand about that comment? There's always that one, lolol.
❤️🤗
I totally love this comment.
I love you so much. From the very beginning of Alanis' career you know exactly where she is in life because she writes from the heart. You can see how much enjoyment and happiness she gets from being a wife and a mom and I'm so happy for her. I wish you it lasts forever because you are truly one special human.
Like a lot of people here, you are touching us deep with this sweet and beautiful song!!! I don’t think any other singer can do that today in 2022. Thank you for coming back with this album Alanis, thank you for sharing your family with us and again thank you for your angelic voice from heaven!!! You are loved worldwide 🌎 ❤️ Back in the 90’s I liked your songs and now I love them 😍 From Montreal with love 🇨🇦
From "Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie's" 'CAN'T NOT': ...'how would I explain this to my children if I had them' to the answer = 'ABLAZE' in "Such Pretty Forks In The Road" 🙏💖
Perfecto
Beautifully said 😭❤
Points for Endymion!
OH MY 😩😫 yesssss
And from Incomplete :
"One day I'll be at peace
I'll be enlightened and I'll be married with children and maybe adopt"
Full circle :)
The most underrated musician of our generation. Her unique sound, writing ability and passion is unmatched.
Underrated? She is one of the highest selling musicians in history. Just Jagged Little Pill sold over 30 million copies. Anyhow we can all agree she is awesome.
@@juanpablohurtadolopez6986 underrated, meaning she doesn't get the recognition she deserves.
@@treyabbey2766 I was looking at it from the concept of people using their hard earned money to buy her art as the highest form of recognition. But she has also won pretty much every music award in existence, so clearly the music industry also ackowledges her work. What form is recognition where you thinking about?
I'll second and third that statement.
Poetess and Songstress and Musician, but most of all Artist.
I don't think she's underrated at all, I mean, she's conquered the whole world's charts since the 90's. She's been incredibly successful. And she deserves it.
Alanis. I've come back to this song, it hits different now, loved it whan it came out, kids are now, in or heading into their teens, and tears are streaming. The conflicts with teens are huge in their eyes and they pull away and think the world and their parents are against them. Will have my girl to relax in a quiet space, headphones on, and ask her to let the words of this song permeate her mind. To let her know when my words fail her that you say it so eloquently... that she is beyond loved, that I am always there to pick up the pieces of her troubles. Thank you for your lyrical mastery.
She looks so happy with her family. God bless you and your family. I feel (in my opinion) that you've always wanted to be married and be a mother. Your wonderful at it. I remember buying your 1st album JAGGED LITTLE PILL. Wow, your a brilliant singer then and now. I just feel a difference. What a change, what a strong woman you are! All my best to you!!!!
This is one of the best things i've found in 2020. I did cry as well seeing it, because Alanis is reminding us that the real art and music resides in our pure humanity... and it remains truly consistant. Thank you Alanis. We really do love you.
It’s what she’s always done so beautifully… her songs reflect human experience and vulnerability like few artists can capture!!!
Omg. Alanis Morrisette makes a comeback and I am here for it. Her vocals are so beautiful and the whole video made me happy. Fan from my teenage years is meeting my 40 yr old mom self.
Same here. I started listening to Alanis when I was 12 and now have a 10 year old daughter myself. This song is so full of love. I still love Alanis as much as when she started, because she grows and shares her growth.
Same!
I have not been a big Alanis fan but I am very happy to see her happy with her family BEAUTIFUL song❤️
You have no idea the great meaning of your amazing song to me. It came to me a bit before my dad passed and I let him listen as he was leaving this world. The lyrics are song amazing, so right on, and we are all made of the same cells even if we forgot all at the same time... Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!
I feel like I just found a $100 bill on the ground; didn’t know this song existed. It’s beautiful…amazing! 🤩
BAWLED. I adore you Alanis. You are a goddess. I was there screaming and singing at Budweiser Stadium when I was 16 and still here listening at 42...now a mama too. You sing to my heart at all my life stages. ❤️❤️❤️
Me too. I discovered today Alanis and I were born two days apart. She is so beautiful and relatable and inspires me to be a better person!
Oh and yes Bawled is right
Lol
The same for me ❤❤❤❤❤👏👏👏👏🤗
Yes!!! Same here!!! Loving this!!! ...and the video! Perfect!!!
Is that her husband? He smiles with his eyes....I've always loved people that do that. Her family is beautiful and she's still awesome as hell! #shoutoutfromtoronto ❤️
Yes thats her family.
Yeah he's a babe she scored! Loll
Souleye...... goooooooooogle it
So she finally found the man who fulfilled her 21 things huh :-p
Yes. I don’t know how they met but he went to the same little high school in MA as my step daughter.
So sympathetic and uplifting. Thank you.
Just love how casual she carried herself she's a legend and always will be a legend, seen her in Manchester last month unbelievable
This album is a rare one that has no skips. I will never understand why it's not being praised more. Its truly a remarkable album. One of the best of 2020 in my opinion.
It lands where it needs to, maybe? I don't see lack of praise in a larger sense as a failure if what it comes to do (love, celebrate, teach, heal, etc.) gets done. 😊 Jagged Little Pill legit saved my life. And this release nourishes my soul to see her so in bliss. (I agree with your assessment re Best in 2020!)
Its not a commercial radio friendly album. Nowadays people want things that is more danceble or get easily in the head (Im not judging people tastes) and Alanis is one of the few artists that make music for her fans and not just for the success (bvious she does care about the sells, after all she did spend money making the album)
Alanis and Nelly Furtado are the few that i really enjoy with time. Specially because they did taste the Fame, Huge Success and yet, they choose to make their own identity in the songs, instead of just hits
Sure don’t need no auto tune
Because it was not released by Ariana Grande and so on...
I agree - this is one of the best albums of 2020 and there isn't a weak song in the lot.
Still has her legendary voice - no doubt it's Alanis.
Her voice just get slightly deeper.
and beautiful face and hair. i can't believe how beautiful she still looks :)
Your new album saved my boyfriends and I life's Alanis, we dearly love your heart and creations. We are both recovering from substance abuse and pulling through together. Your testimony, melodies and the empowering spirit your carry has guided us through this last Spring and Summer and the seasons to come. Bless you Morisette family. Have a beautiful Thanksgiving.
Wow! You only grew more beautiful across time, miles, and memories. Any hard trials brought you to this bliss. Treasure every second just like this while you can. They’ll grow faster than you want or can imagine. Beautiful!!
I'm here for the positive mother complex.
I knew she was a mother in the 90's lmao
I miss her.
I would do a fu. But i still tear up when i watch it.
Speaking from experience, songs like this are very important for folk whose parents decided their mission was to abuse and/or neglect the light out of their children's eyes. Songs like this provide a frame of reference for how pure and magical a healthy parent-child bond can be.
Beautiful
If you have a child, you will have a chance to break the cycle and change your family tree.
I couldn't care less about my family tree. I am not linked to my abusers or their enablers in any way. Their karma is their problem. I have made a conscious choice not to have children, so the cycle is already broken, and I am free of it.
@@SnowdropWood - I'm so sorry your parents abused you. You didn't deserve that. I hope you continue to find your own healing, and also remember that you have the power to parent yourself now the way you wish you'd have been parented. I wish you had a better experience as a child, and I hope you take the lyrics of this song (or anything else that feels healing) and apply them to your own inner child and know that now you can keep the light in your own eyes ablaze.
So cute!!! We love you! My son grew up listening to your songs. And your new look is just beautiful!
Lyrically, this was song of the year for 2020 in my book, and as of 8/28/21, it’s still unmatched. Alanis and her songwriting partner Michael Farrell expressed parental love with poetic genius when they penned this masterpiece. 👏🏾❗️
I was hesitant to watch this, the 2020 version of Alanis, fearful that today she is no longer the Alanis I loved so much from years gone by. Well, damn, she is still all that! She’s a pleasure to listen to, and still has that amazing and beautiful smile.
So true. Didnt wana ruin the memories of my teens...but she is still amazing!
I'm crying right now. Being a mother changes everything. Such a deep emotional song. I love it. Way to come back Alanis. Jagged little pill was one of the best albums I've ever owned.
Same...but from a Dad
9 months later and here I am again! A grandma, a mamma, ups and downs....but life is a miracle. Lucky if we see it.
"My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze" -The thoughts of every good parent. Shout out to all the good parents out there.
ALANIS 4EVER
Alanis, I have loved your music since the beginning. I saw you in the 90's in Hartford Ct. Last night I fell asleep listening to Utopia! Like so many others I am struggling with isolation, financial troubles and lack of love. My service dog died in my arms a month ago and I've been lost ever since. Your music inspires me with motivation to go on to try to find a bit of happiness. Thank you for being you. I hope that you read this and would love to hear from you. A sister in spirit. Angie ☮
Angela Andersong I’ll let her know 🙏🏽
@@dakotawint Thank you so much.☮
Agreed.
I didn't expect to see you here lmao!
I would like to be like Alanis, so open and free about everything. God bless her for that
You'll get there. Time has a funny way of making us content with things we once swore up and down we'd never be satisfied with.
@@harmonyqueue thanks for the good energy
Love her since I was 16. Now I am 41 and a mum of two and still love her and her beautiful spirit 💕
What a beautiful song. If you're a parent wow this hits so hard and so true.
Wow. Adding her brilliant voice to the era of rising consciousness, showing tremendous growth from our angry times of 25 years ago. I'm so heartened by this. Thank U so much Alanis.
She's just and incredible lyricist, the way she plays with the metric is so crazy. And girl, how come the voice is just the same? Luv from Brazil!
As soon as she sang "to my boy" I lost it, gorgeous!
It is love/hate on you. The tune is NOTHING! Without the video. Thank you. Love your family.
What a woman.
What a person.
One in millions.
Ive always thought she is the essence of woman kind.
Thanks Al
I’m not a parent and I’m never going to be, but the song is so lovely and sweet and heartfelt and it just made me cry.
Never say never.
What beautiful poetry Alanis. Thank you for singing like this.
From Bombay, India...
Morissette Magic !!!ABLAZE'
And reminds us of our times with our children and wanting to keep their passions 'ABLAZE'
GOD Bless you and your family
You have enriched my life with insightful songs, ever since you sang. Been with you, following you ever since.
'Thank You' Alanis !!!
Alanis you have been missed ❤️ you have a song for every emotion and every deep thought and now the perfect song to express all the raw and deep love and emotion a woman feels for her children. Very heart warming❣️
Yep😊
So missed.. glad to have you back.
Listened to the entire album twice yesterday and again today. I think it’s brilliant. Such a great album.
I LOVE the growth in her music! Everyone grows and have different experiences in life and this song is beautiful for so many reasons and tells me that her life has turned from not so great to amazing and her kids are adorable!
Yeah she did grow, about 75 pounds, but she is still a legend and I love her.
She has captured the essence of love and discovery.
I have loved this woman since day 1 in the 90’s. She still blows my mind how she can so precisely verbalize what we all feel (as women). And how does this brilliant soul memorize all her words and notes and cues for her plethora of songs and sounds?🤯. Love this forever amazing woman and thank you for sharing your beautiful family❤️
Well said!!! Agree 100%
She also verbalizes what I feel like as a man! Not in this song per se but in many of her lyrics. I adore her.
She's such an inspiration by sharing her struggles and vulnerability. One of my role models for sure!!!
I love Alanis. Her music is legendary. This song makes me wish I was a parent (that i'm not is one of the disappointments of my life). This is the perfect mantra for any parent.
sweet song. good to see the fam great powreful message we should all apply that to our daily lives
There is something about how in this video and others (one completely bare) she stands mostly still looking directly at us baring her soul. It's unusual, and bracingly intimate.
Yes. I believe you are referring to the Thank You video. All the naughty bits were covered and blurred out.
@@DanaONeillStuder and Head Over Feet, and plenty of others
It's ok...I'm not edgy anymore either. This song got me right in the feels. 🧡
💜
I saw this live on August 13th. That was one Friday night I wont forget. I saw her on her Jagged Little Pill 25th Anniversary Tour. I was so pleased to hear this live. She has never sounded so good. Best she has ever sounded. She was amazing. I had to sing along with this song. lol My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ABLAZE!!!
pure beauty .... we can see it in her smile that doesn't change through the years !!!!
