She’s not bitter, she’s angry. She has been screwed over, and wants him to know it.
I don't think bitter or angry are the correct words... I think "crazy ass bitch" is the term you're looking for. Her mind is the mess that was left behind, and probably the reason he left. There is no truer truth in the world than "crazy chick's are fun to date... until you break up with them".
@@jamesdemarco7161uh sure. The only thing possible for such an angry song is she’s a crazy bitch and probably deserved to be dumped. God forbid any female shows any form of anger that could seem a bit over the top in the moment because she’s mad or hurt. No she must be a psychopath. Nice to know you support sexist and overplayed stereotypes about women. Good for you. I know a handful of men who say similar crazy bitch statements about angry songs written about exes by women who wouldn’t say the same about an angry song about an ex written by a man. Let’s hope your not one of them and call out “crazy assholes” too.
If you know the story behind this song, you know. This is the first shot in exorcising the demons of a very inappropriate relationship as a teen with a grown ass, famous man.
Yep, bitter, twisted (and ever so slightly angry lol)… understandably so.
it can be interpreted however a person wants. to me, she was bitter and weak and clingy. Plus just creepy and psychotic... Move on!
"And every time I scratch my nails down someone else's back, I hope you feel it .. WELL CAN YOU FEEL IT!" One of the most epic lines ever written .. love this song!!
And you scream it!!!!!
Christ, when she sings that line, I FEEL it!
Also the line 'Are you thinking about me, when you fcuk her.' Always sends shivers down my back.
for me this is the point in the song where she regains her power
you have to understand that up to that point ('90s), pop music was full of music telling us how sad it was when a dude left, and how a woman needed to mourn, or find strength to move on, how HARD it was without that man. Alanis kicked the door in and said fuck that shit, dude did wrong, I'm pissed and he's gonna KNOW about it. music definitely changed after that, so it was a key moment in music history
The first time I heard this I was blown away - I've never heard an artist project such raw anger... no punches pulled. She totally broke new ground - brilliant and amazing.
Outside of metal, yup. For what is essentially a pop song, she really puts a lot of heart and emotion into it. My friends and I were all metal/grunge heads in the day, but when this came out, most of us swept into it (of course some wouldn't just because it was too poppy and had a female vocalist but - their loss). This album gets all the attention, but I think the follow up, Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie, is way underrated. Songs like Can't Not, Would Not Come and I Was Hoping had that same edge in my opinion.
The production on that whole album 'Jagged Little Pill' is just phenomenal which to me no live version can ever truly replicate no matter how good Alanis vocals might be. The bass on this song is just funky as hell.
that's because the studio version of this song was Flea and they had Dave Navarro on guitar and Taylor Hawkins on drums.
@@cParman9Taylor was only part of the touring band and not the recording. It’s him in the video though. The bass groove is one of Flea’s finest.
@@notverygeordie that bass line reminds of of ones from RHCP as well. it's just so funky though.
Exactly all of these comments are on point. You can only imagine the producers knowing what a talent they had and combining her without going over the top to tell (basically you found out when you read the fine print on the cd booklet) setting up the studio time with soon to be legends themselves to record instrumentals on this album. Finding the songwriter and singer like this is rare.
..she had a great band. Alanis was a juggernaut in the early 90s, I bought each album as they came out, the next album was also great (Sapossed Infatuation,....) and the next and the next had some great tracks....but time past her style by , like so many others...thats Rock n Roll, but she has a great catalogue
I was a teenager in the 90's and this whole album was transformative. Iconic
Great song, unique voice, Flea on Bass, Dave Navarro on guitar and Taylor Hawkins on the Drums.....meant to be a classic
truly
None of them are on this track
Dave & Flea did a live version one time at Taylor Hawkins celebration recently. They have never played in an album with her. Nor had Taylor ever played on her albums. He joined when the album was coming out and left b4 the next album was recorded.
@@geneeverett7855Flea and Navarro are, in fact, playing on this version.
@@geneeverett7855 Wikipedia says Flea and Navvaro did play on this song.
This lyric "'til you die, 'TIL YOU DIE, While YOU"RE STILL ALIVE!" is so powerful!
Alanis Morissette is phenomenal!
The album Jagged Little Pill is a massive masterpiece!
Truly amazing!
This girl was clearly going through it when she wrote and sang this. For being only a teenager when it was made, she absolutely knocked it out of the park.
Sorry, but she was born in '74 and in 95 she was 21, and already a seasoned performer (she started as a kid in Television - but music was her thing, her teenage years she was up against Tiffany, Debbie Gibson and the like, look up "Too Hot"). At this time she was able to get HER music produced instead of the bubblegum pop of the time. This album was at the end of the grunge era as hip hop came to dominate the charts. It was a strong voice for an overlooked niche, and it sort of opened doors for a lot of solo female vocalists.
She wrote the song when she was 19. She’s not talking about when it was released.
A perfect song of pain and rage. No whimpering in the dark. A screaming cathartic volcano for anyone who's been replaced...there are consequences from your actions.
Definitely an "ANTHEM" for the BROKEN-HEARTED 💔!!!
She pulls no punches. Never had, never will. It was a great day when a young woman coworker introduced me to this. Been a fam ever since.
This song is allegedly about Dave Coulier, Uncle Joey from Full House. Can't remember if it was ever confirmed but that seems to be the case.
Her entire Jagged Little Pill album was phenomenal. This song definitely seemed to usher in a style of music for me
I seem to remember that the story about him was confirmed, though at first he laughed it off and claimed he didn't really know her.
@@brheinfeldt Now that you mention it, I think I remember him saying that too. That's wild for him to claim that. I'm sure his tune changed after she hit it big.
Yes, you’re correct. Some people attributed it to Ryan Reynolds, but it was in fact Dave. When they asked her which one it was actually about, she replied, “flip a coin cause they both did me dirty.”
God I love this song. You can feel the hurt and angst at the same time. Truly a timeless classic.
@@paulkinney7129 Ryan was at least closer to her age. Coulier was over 10 years older than her and she wrote this when she was 18, so she would've been underage during their relationship. He was preying on a teenage girl. She's eluded to this in later interviews where she says relationships from her earlier life would be considered statutory rape (would've been then too, people just looked the other way).
@@sroberts00 He was much older, but she was not underage. They started dating when she was 18. She wrote the song in 1994 when she was 20.
It's still a problematic age gap, particularly with all she had been through. But they were both adults, and she was apparently on civil terms with him when the song came out, because he asked her how she wanted him to answer questions from the media about it.
The song couldn't have been inspired by Ryan Reynolds anyway, since they didn't get together until after 2000, and the song had been out 5 years by then. If she said "flip a coin," she had to be speaking metaphorically.
Alanis is pure unadulterated raw talent and when it was released in 95 everyone from age 10 to 90 loved it and even my 74 year old mom was totally blown away with Alanis
Def need to do more Alanis. She's flat-out amazing! The entire album Jagged Little Pill is a masterpiece. The song Uninvited off the City Of Angels soundtrack was her first single after the epic JLP album. Her vocals are freaking unreal on this one. I think the best live for that one is the 1999 Grammy's. STUNNING.
I think you would enjoy the live on Letterman version. She scared the effing audience into applause with the intensity of her anger. It was intense.
Can Confirm. Great Performance with the late Taylor Hawkins on Drums
I'll have to check it out.
I have to check it out too
I haven't seen this one. I'll look for it.
I did your right but a very good performance
You told me you'd hold me until you die.... but you're still alive. One of my all-time favorite lyrics.
I had friends who were musicians that performed at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. I was there, had a free pass to enter with them behind the stage. I heard Alanis on stage belting out “You Oughta Know.” My friends said to me she was a screamer and not a very good singer. I was simply blown away by this remark, and I was an instant fan of Alanis. Alanis was the most significant performance I saw at the Olympics, including the athletes, and others who performed.
This entire album was unreal back in the 90s. Blew me away.
Alanis is a beast! I was one of the people wanting your reaction, and knew a couple of those lines would blow your mind!😂
Jagged Lite Pill. One of the bestselling debut albums of all time. A banger start to finish.
It was her third studio album. However, it was definitely her breakthrough album considering she was basically just a teenage Canadian pop princess before this.
What an amazing album
She takes the saying Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned and multiplies it by 100!!! It was written about the actor Dave Coulier (from Full House)
Alanis has never once confirmed that
I was a teenager when this came out. This whole album was revolutionary for me. This song in particular. She was open about how pissed off she was in a way that resonated with me.
The album this song came from is Jagged Little Pill released in 1995. It is the 13th best selling album of all time just to give you some perspective on how amazing this album is. Please do some more tracks from it.
I don’t recall the song being controversial in the 90’s. It was a huge hit. Alainis Morisette was all over the place. Whenever I think about this song. I think back to a good friend I had in the 90’s who was raising a 6 or 7 year old niece. I remember her niece blasting this song and singing to it while dancing and waving her hair around in circles. At the time I enjoyed seeing her so happy. It wasn’t until 2-3 years ago that I Googled the lyrics. Needles to say, I was shocked.
She was only 19 when she wrote and released this ahead of her second album release “Jagged Little Pill”. She was phenomenal. Unfortunately it was the peak of her work before depression, eating disorders and conflict with her label slowed her down. It was a 5 year wait until the next album. She’s had a very tough life, her business manager embezzled over $5 million off her, she was a victim of multiple statutory assaults as a 15 yr old. She’s not had it easy at all. Considering what she’s been through, it’s amazing what she’s managed to achieve. Incredible woman.
Morissette had the baddest backing band at the time. Chris Chaney, Jesse Tobias, Taylor Hawkins. Phew!
@@Azabaxe80Jesse Tobias from funk rock greatness Mother Tongue? I did not know.
@@elevenseven-yq4vu Dude, The Peppers took him from Mother Tongue only to fire him a month later. He's done alright since.
Very passionately sung song
You can feel her anger 👿👿👿
Good song
Such energy
You embellished a number of these details. Her relationships with older men in her teens were very difficult for her but they were consensual at the time even if she was too young. After the success of Jagged Little Pill she had to renege her contract which was stressful but her follow-up albums experienced huge drops in sales so of course she struggled with her label. The pressures of fame were challenging but she’s hardly a tragic case. She’s been married for 15 years with three children and still making $ off touring, streaming, sponsorships, and being a panelist on talent shows.
YES! ALL the angst of the 90s. RAGE! This was the anthem of every girl who's guy cheated on them and screwed them over. We SHOUTED this song. I am SO glad you decided to watch the original with all the power.
This song and album blew up when it was released. A cultural album. The 90's were amazing! You won't believe who this song is about!
omgoodness, I had completely forgotten who it was about until just now. Or at least, who we suspected it was about, I'm not sure she ever confirmed it. Were they both on You Can't Do That on Television? I remember him doing some kind of beaver character joke on a show like that. He was so much older than her.
Cut. It. Out.
@@piperbird7193 David Cullier
@@piperbird7193 Apparently she answered that question in a 2021 interview and said it was not about him. I kind of always felt he tried to cash in on that rumor.
Years later she wrote a song called This Grudge that represents her finally letting go of what this song is talking about. It's absolutely beautiful and profound and I cannot recommend it highly enough.
I believe this was her first American music video. She used to be a pop singer in Canada but that genre didn't help her career so she changed into this kind of artist. And she blew up. Yes she was younger in this song than when she was on Howard. She slowed this song down on HS show to almost acoustic. I ❤❤ her!
Thank you.
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Badass song from a phenomnenal album.
It’s Flea (bass) Taylor Hawkins (drums) and Dave Navarro (guitar), playing for Alanis on the Jagged Little Pill album,
Bassline slaps hard, with the cadence.
Time keeping on the drums before Taylor started sounding exactly like Dave Grohl.
They were all friends forming and reforming bands back then, she was just the angry jilted lover’s voice that we needed to scream with in our twenties. 😊
Alanis is kind of the originator of "angry chick rock". Legend has it, this song is about Dave Coulier. Now every time I hear it, I'm like "damn, Uncle Joey, what did you do?!"
I listened to Alanis Morissette in college. Thank you so much for listening to her music. She was the, "angry young women," who gave a voice to many young women. She is still creating and her music touches so many people. I love that you listened to her music. I keep finding more songs that she has written that I haven't heard yet. She's an amazing artist and human.
I rocked out to this as much as any other angsty grunge girl, but now when I listen to it I just think about how it was about Dave Coulier and I can't help but laugh
This came out the year my husband and I started dating, and we were together 17 years. He's now with someone who was 3 when we started dating. This song hits different now. Does she know the promises he says to her are the same ones he broke with me? The happy plans they make for their future together are a different flavor of the ones we made? Does she know what will happen to her when her grey hair comes in, her waist begins to thicken, lines appear around her eyes? How old will his next wife have been when they started dating? Does she know?
To be fair though, if this song is about who everyone assumes its about he left her for a MORE appropriate aged girl.
Seriously, Alanis changed my life in Middle School/High School in the 90's and on. I love her so much! This is my anthem. ❤❤
Thank you for going back and doing the original. I was selling CDs when this came out and in 10 years of doing so VERY few caught fire like this one did. Sure, there were many that were wildly popular due to radio, MTV, or a strong underground following that could best be compared to today’s popular acronym “IYKYK.” Many, many people felt they needed to own a copy of Jagged Little Pill from the first time they heard it. It seemed people wanted to support AM and to get her story out to as many other people as possible.
Live, studio, or somebody humming it - this was always an excellent song from the story it told to the incredible musicianship. In this original video, she SELLS it like nobody else could have done. I think that is the difference. Beautiful job you did with “You Oughta Know” both times, Britt. Thank you.
Everything about her is golden . I remember skipping class in high school to hear her songs on radio for first time.
I need to watch more of this gorgeous, classy lady with an amazing personality.
This song is iconic ❤️🔥
Don't you think? Oh, wait, wrong song.
I was a teenager in the 90s.. and yes I absolutely loved her (I still love her so much!!!)... specially the song "Ironic", "All I really want", "hand in my pocket" and "Forgiven" (from the record Jagged little pill) Hugs from Buenos Aires!!
The whole Jagged Little Pill album was fire, I hope you check out more of her songs ❤
Back in the 90's when she was angry at the world no words can explain the level of rock that came from this young lady
On this studio recording but not featured in the video are Taylor Hawkins (drums - Foo Fighters) RIP. Dave Navarro (guitar - Janes Addiction/Red Hot Chili Peppers) and Flea (bass - Red Hot Chili Peppers).
The last reaction you did when Alanis sang the live version was amazing and I mentioned before over the years I’ve seen and attended Alanis live concerts 6 times when she toured the United Kingdom 🇬🇧, Alanis outstanding live and she incorporates and plays the guitar flute and harmonica in her performances,you can listen to an whole album from this phenomenal talented artist and their will not be a bad song in incorporated in the album, checkout Alanis singing ( REASONS I DRINK) her powerful voice is amazing,great reaction thanks 🙏
She's simply iconic.
It’s crazy. I haven't heard the song for so many years, but it still evoke the same feeling as it did when I was 16. the song is perfect! not only for the betrayed. you can feel every word. alanis was incredibly popular in the mid 90's
She's amazing, "Uninvited" is my favorite song of hers...Rest in Peace Taylor Hawkins, he was her drummer before the Foo Fighters.
The version on Howard Stern is just a slower, more stripped down acoustic version. They are both great. I think most people wanted you to watch this version because it is more “intense”(?) and captures the raw emotion somewhat better. Love your channel and you are quickly becoming one of my favorite reactors. 😁
This just might have been the song of the year. When she arrived she blew everyone’s doors off! And not even in a theater!
❤🤟I played this song outside the funeral home when my aunt died on her behalf , my uncle had moved his mistress into the family home while she lay dying in the hospital. Thank Alanis
Lyrics by Alanis Morissette. Music by her and Glen Ballard.
Late Taylor Hawkins on drums in the video and in the tour. RIP.
Written about AM and Dave Coulier, who cheated on her! 🤯
He was not the only Full House actor who had relationship trouble! 🙄 Meanwhile, John Stamos had a problem marriage 💑 with Rebecca Romijn, who is from Berkeley, across from my hometown San Francisco 🌉 . They eventually divorced 💔 .
Good news. 🙄 1 year after Jagged Little Pill was released, a singer in The Philippines 🇵🇭 was named after her. She is Morissette Amon.
Other good news. 😃 Alanis Morissette, David Foster, Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance were inducted into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2022. 🏆
Suggested videos 📹: 1 Alanis Morissette performs One Hand in My Pocket 2 Morissette Amon and David Foster perform Never Enough. 3 Northern Lights perform Tears Are Not Enough 4 Bryan Adams and Tina Turner sing It's Only Love
This rendition really put her on the map
Yea, I indeed called it the "Bitter Bitch" CD, but I loved every track. Cool trivia: Flea and Dave Navarro (Red Hot Chili Peppers) played on this track. The drummer in the video is the late Taylor Hawkins from the Foo Fighters. He did not record the song, but he supported the tour before joining the Foos and did this video.
It's rumored she wrote this song about Dave Coulier from Full House. She dated him when she was 19. He played hockey and she sang the national anthem at the game. She has never confirmed it, but the time line fits.
and let us not forget that and top of being an amazing song, those amazing bass lines and guitar were recorded by no other than flea and Dave Navarro from RHCP
Incredible artist
Jagged Little Pill is an amazing piece of work
I love your reactions to the lyrics!
“Uninvited “ is an absolute must ❤❤
Univited Live on the Grammy’s still gives me Chills when I watch it
“Jagged Little Pill” is one of best selling albums of all time. It’s truly a masterpiece IMO, you should listen to all of it.
I recall seeing your reaction to her performance on Howard Stern. She certainly did perform it with a different "vibe" THAT day. But in its original release, the listener was meant to hear the ANGST in her voice and in her words. This song blew her up into the stratosphere. Granted the WHOLE album(Jagged Little Pill) is filled with fantastic songs. This, coming from a Metal-Head. Other artists tried to emulate her, and failed. Her voice cannot be duplicated, it is quite unique. Beautiful, in its own way. She is from my home, here in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. She was a bit of a "pop princess" before she truly found herself, once she got angry. Haha. Anyway, enjoyed the reaction and keep up the GREAT work! 🤘🤘🤘
Her voice is so powerful it will cave in your chest and your head will explode, we went through 5 adams before we figured that out
Showing pure, raw, absolutely honest emotion during the 90’s was such truly a bold move.
This was a huge hit in the 90s. I think every female I knew had her Jagged Little Pill and Shania Twain's - Come On Over CDs.
This album came out my senior year of high school, I graduated 1996....love it!! I never saw her live until 2021, when I flew out to Las Vegas from San Jose to see her perform at the T-Mobile Arena!! I was amazing!! If you ever get a chance to see her live, you must take it!
Also her live performance of Uninvited will blow you away, you have to go see her in concert to truly experience that song. The song itself is mesmerizing but when she does it live they turn on a strobe light and she does a crazy headbang dance, which is supposedly Meg Ryan in the movie City of Angels trying to resist the romantic love of an angel. (the song was written for the movie.)
This was such an influential song for pretty much every teenage girl in the 90s!
And, in fact, the entire album Jagged Little Pill.. it was the first time I ever remember hearing something so vengeful and expressive and full of anger, that completely changed the face of music for women.
Hearing this was the first time I think I started to realise about the double standards women faced everywhere, and it didn't have to be that way.
It's ok to pissed off and be vocal about it, you don't have to be a good little girl, smiling serenely at every shit thing that happens.
Yes, its bitter, and spiteful, and its bloody brilliant!
I look forward to seeing more of your discoveries! ❤
A little background: most of the songs on the album "Jagged Little Pill" including this one, were written about a secret relationship she had with an older man that had to be kept secret because she was underage. The fact it was a secret is why she's been denied the cross that she bears... nobody was allowed to know her pain and anger because of it's source. Yeah, she was bitter and angry, but she used it to write a really powerful album.
No one shows emotion like Alanis.
This song was a landmark moment for female rock/pop stars. Basically all female driven music can be broken down into 2 categories. Everything that was released before this and everything that has been released after
I recently threw myself head-first back into music a couple of years ago, and one of my first gigs was playing bass for Alanis on the northern end of her American tour. She was amazing, and honestly, she paid me three times as much in drinks than the gig was meant to pay on the books. lol. She's also still VERY beautiful, and it's hard not to fall "head over feet" for her.
Just found you! Going through the history now! I LOVE hearing a woman’s reaction!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻♥️♥️♥️
Some deep feelings here...if you've been there, you totally get it and if not, you're blessed.
I love this song ❤ the whole album is still fantastic 😊
1995 ...while groggy and driving at 4am to attend a Naval Reserve Drill weekend drill, I first heard this on the radio. Woke me right up. This girls was ANGRY ! After hearing this I sat bolt upright ...it was more bracing than a strong Cuban espresso. Even the DJ was like DAMN !!
This album has sold 35mil copies and this song was a big reason why.
This song always reminds me of when I pretended to date my best friend sophomore year of highschool so the stalkery girls would give him space, lmao. One in particular...a psychopathic red head named Katie...chose THIS SONG for her choir solo tryout song...sang it in front of the 100-person choir class...(yelled it, more-like😅) and she was staring scary dagger eyes into him while pacing back and forth...her eyes never looking away or blinking, lol...woooo! NEVER piss of a red head...especially one that has no soul...which it is debatable if she did...I've rarely met another as oddly disconnected and so natural at giving me nothing to read as she, even now...memories, right? Great reaction vid.
28 years ago, Jagged Little Pill sold 33 million ALBUMS worldwide
The bass line is FIRE! This was still real music by real people - and not some compressed autotune shit!
My daughter was maybe 12 or 13 when this was released. The version of Alanis you heard on the radio is not what is on the cd. Well she asked for the cd for Christmas and silly uninformed mom that I am I bought it for her . LOL omg I had no idea. That being said I absolutely love her and so does my daughter to this day. She is amazing. She has a voice like no other .
Jagged Little Pill was one of the best albums to come from the 90's... You really need to listen to the entire LP cover to cover! Put angry white woman rock on the map! Hell of an album!
As a Canadian woman who was in her early 30's when this song came out, I can confirm that this was a huge hit. And yes some woman did talk like this, not this exact scenario of course, but with the language used and intimate nature of our conversations.
God, I love this song. My mom used to play it when I was a kid. I guess it would just come on the radio . Oh I missed the nineties.
Trivia: the guy playing the super funky bass parts is Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Also, I can confirm that the movie theater "antics" mentioned in the first verse are quite often performed by "bad girls". 😆
She wrote this because of a relationship she was having when she was a teenager with a grown man. That grown man is the actor that played Uncle Joey on full House.
The version you first watched from the Howard Stern show was beautiful, acoustic, slowed down. This video and the driving funk beat really conveys the anger she was going through.
Before this album, she was doing bubble gum pop songs. She had to call her parents and warn them of the turn her music was about to take.
OMG, I was a morning show sidekick at an alt rock station when this came out and it was HOT. We had it playing 10 times a day at one point. Truly a masterpiece
im a bloke and i loved this song/album since it came out im a taxi driver and i play it for the tipsey female group going home , they love it the song is older than most of them , haha will always love alanis x
This was our shit back in the day! This is totally iconic every word. She’s amazing on Howard as well.
She was also like 19 when she recorded this song. And Alanis was dating older men in her teens. Her documentary jagged pill is worth a watch
“Would she do what to you? In a theater?” I almost spit my drink out. Lol.
One of the biggest selling albums of All time... Great reaction,,✌️
I was 19 when it came out and loved it. Female rage at it's best .
MTV blunted the impact of this video by censoring the naughty parts, but her live performance of the song on the Grammy awards show restored the f-bomb and other sexual references. It blew everybody's mind.
The howard stern version was great but the video was something else, loved the music ably assisted by flea of the red hot chilli peppers on bass. The video was great too. Her changing clothes and then wandering in the desert with her suitcase aimlessly a great touch
She went scorched earth. Literally,
My teen kids loved her 1990s work. So did we parents.
I was 22 in 1995 and this anthem was everywhere!
I agree with you, Britt. No loss in seeing the live version over the studio. Honestly, I prefer to see the alternate and live versions of songs you've been reacting to over the same old studio versions everyone has seen/heard 1000's of times. Thanks for sharing!
I think folks wanted you to see the original video because that's how we experienced it the first time around. And it was amazing. Totally fresh. Viral wasn't a thing yet, but everyone was talking about this when it hit.
I was 18 when this came out....this was a powerful song for many of us.
