Alanis joined Olivia last night in LA at the sour tour

When was it…. About a week ago, that Britney “premiered” her new “…Baby one more time” outfit - and that IG post was accompanied by “Thank u” by Alanis Morissette. Maaaaaaaaaaaan - how fitting are some of those lyrics to Britney’s situation?! I listened to it on the way home today… I would LOVE for a Britney /Alanis collab whether she helped produce the album or helped song-write with Britney. I think Britney’s mind and Alanis’ songwriting ability would just be a PERFECT pairing. we all saw Brit sing “you oughta know” soooooo yeah. Lol anyone have any thoughts?

Fresh off from winning album of the year at the 1996 Grammys (setting a war with the lambily as they felt Mariah Carey and daydream was robbed, due to being more commercial than JLP was). Starting in India (even name checking in Thank U, which at the time shocked viewers on MTV as they aired a Music video where Alanis Morissette was completely nude, but this upset some people as MTV said this was artistic vs. ***ual expression being seen as Artistic as well). And yes they shut down LA for two days to shot a nude alanis privately. Meaning this really wasnt CGI post edit. She hated music, as she wanted to leave due to knowing she would face constant comparisons to JLP, which it underperformed selling 3 Million in the US, compared to the 16 Million of her previous album. To ten million worldwide, vs the 30 Million worldwide performance of JLP.. So to say these kind of pressures to live up to commercial expectations is definitely much harder pressure on any artist. Part of the albums underperformance was due to the shift from anger and angst to a much calmer and introspective lyrics which was alienating to a lot of people. The album held the best first week sales for a female artist with close to 500,000 in its first week, until Britney spears broke it May of 2000 with oops!... I did it again, who would hold that record until 2015 when adele sold 3 Million with 25 in its first week of release. Alanis is considered the songwriter that allowed Taylor swift and Adele to happen.. @Jordan Miller

My kinda ballad tbh Also sending her some love and positivity after her recent disturbing revelations

I don't know if this is already known but i'm still making a topic about it. According to BMI, the singer Alanis Morissette recorded a song titled "Lover Boy", written by Myah Marie, Paul Geissinger, Jonathan Asher and Guy Sigsworth. Some months ago, Myah started selling a demo of a song called "Lover Boy" produced by Sigsworth on her Patreon. She claims the demo was sent to Britney Spears (team) during the sessions of her album "Britney Jean", but it was either rejected or "recorded" but did not made into the final tracklist. It seems that the song was later sold to Morissette, which recorded it but it still remains unreleased for now. Opinions about this?

Alanis Morissette admits she's a huge Janet Jackson fan. In a new interview with ET Canada, Alanis says: “I have been obsessed with Janet Jackson for as long as I can remember,” she said. “I remember having gone to see her perform when I was 15 in Toronto, and there was something about having watched her perform that day that just kind of put a spell on me, and I think I was with my manager at the time.” “I remember turning to him and saying… basically said something along the lines of, ‘I now am very clear about what I want to do with my life,'” she added. Imagine if they collaborated This warms my heart idk. Thoughts?!

 Originally scheduled to be released back in May, this Friday (July 31st) marks the release of Alanis Morissette's ninth studio album, "Such Pretty Forks in the Road,” through Epiphany Music and Thirty Tigers in North America, and by RCA and Sony Music in the United Kingdom and Europe. It's been eight years since her last studio effort, in which time Alanis has been raising a family, hosting her own podcast series “Conversation with Alanis Morissette," adapting her 5x Grammy-winning breakthrough album, "Jagged Little Pill" into a broadway musical and, for the last three years, juggling all of that with writing and recording this album.  Never afraid to tackle delicate or unsettling subject matter in her music, "Such Pretty Forks in the Road" is both raw and haunting at times. The album is a brutally honest exploration of addiction, anxiety, betrayal, insomnia, motherhood and postpartum depression all weaved together like pieces of a home-stitched tapestry. Alanis worked with just two producers on this album, Alex Hope and Catherine Marks, which has resulted in a very coherent collection of 11 songs that truly feel introspective and intimate. Stand-out tracks like “Smiling,” "Diagnosis," and "Reckoning" see Alanis lament with a profound openness and unapologetic frankness, while showcasing the capabilities of her ever-recognisable voice, now with a mature and worldly-wise edge. You can order a physical copy of the album on CD, Vinyl or Special Collector's Box from Amazon and it’s available to buy digitally or listen to on streaming services from midnight tonight, your time, wherever you are in the world. Stream below + please comment as you listen, folks! PS: Since this is the first time I’ve done an “album review” here, let me know what you think and if you’d like to see me contribute more content like this on Exhale, thanks.

In the latest episode of Rolling Stone Music Now, Alanis Morissette discusses her powerful new album, Such Pretty Forks in the Road, 25 years of Jagged Little Pill, and much more, including a moment when she laughingly addresses years of “shaming” over those dubious examples of irony (a black fly in your Chardonnay?) in her hit song “Ironic.” To hear the entire episode, press play below: In any case, Morissette was never particularly attached to “Ironic,” which largely stood apart from the autobiographical narrative of the Jagged Little Pill album. “I didn’t even want it on the record,” she explains. “And I remember a lot of people going, ‘Please please, please.’ So I said, OK. That was one of the first songs we wrote, almost like a demo to get our whistles wet. But people wound up really liking the melody, and I wasn’t that precious about it. And I came to realize later that perhaps I should have been,” she admits, laughing. “Whoops!”
