Never forget my first reax seeing the "You Oughta Know" video. Had never heard of AM before, was passing through our house's living room and uttered the immortal question that my old roommates still laugh at me for:
"WTF is up with Anthony Kiedes' voice?"
 
More of early Alanis ...

(Featuring Matt LeBlanc ... yeah, you heard me)

 
I'm afraid that's the extent of her video collection from the early '90s, IJAG.

If I could find the CD anywhere, I would send it to you.

Jagged Little Pill hasn't particularly aged well.

Agreed. When it comes up on the iPod, I always cringe. Unlike Hootie's debut album, which is still pretty damn good.
I know those are different styles, but they are close time-wise.

Um, Hootie aged as well as a loaf of bread.

As I said to someone else this week, you are welcome to your opinion, no matter how wrong you are.

As an artist, yes.

But Cracked Rear View (named after a plumber's crack) is still one of those albums that's still an enjoyable, nostalgic listen.

Bull****. Jagged Little Pill has aged well. I love it.

The acoustic album, not so much.

What she said. I do still love the acoustic version of You Oughta Know, mostly because the meaning of the song changes. It becomes a lot more about the hurt and less about the anger.

Larry David is the only person she ever told who she was singing about in song.
 
JLP is as angsty-90s as Saturday Night Fever is disco-70s. But it lives on as an example of how not to use "irony"
 
I agree. I've always liked this pic.
