review

By Revista Miko:XCI by Rikki La RougePublished about 20 hours ago 3 min read

Alanis Morissette released an alternative music masterpiece in 1995 called Jagged Little Pill and that was the year that Alternative music was really hot and the flannel fashion thing had just happened, i got this album and I loved it i was always sitting in my room listening to it because to me it was a fresh and exciting new sound that I had never heard before period I first saw the single hand in my pocket and the video for it on VH11 late night when it first came out. The premise of the you of the hand in my pocket video was some type of weird and strange black and white parade with Alanis Morissette dressed in a black and white suitDriving around singing her lyrics and stuff well interesting thingsWe're happening around her as she sang the lyrics to her songPeriod well I don't know what the song really meansI just know it was a really good song that I liked a lot everything about it was greatIt was very tongue-in-cheek andI still don't know what hand in my pocket really means but I'm willing to bet just you knowLayback and take things as it comes I guess and you know just go with the flow I mean I'm just spitballing here but that's the kind ofIdea I got from just listening to this songIn general.

The kickoff to the song I mean the album Jaggy Little Pill is a song called all I really want which is in itself pretty cool alternative song it out just the first time i heard a really crisp alternative song. Among the other hit songs that came from jagged Little Pill there was ironic and the name of the song is subject matter is very self-Explanatory just her talking about things that are ironic that happened to you very self-explanatory. There was the song for you learnWhich is the basically the same thingJust a title of a song and basically the songIt's self and some titleBasically set it all too.There wasRight through youThere was a song that reallySticks in my head perfectAnd then there was theQuintessential song that really brought it out for Alanis MorissetteAnd this song was rumored to have been written aboutDave Coolier who she had been going out with at the time I think I don't know their history butIt was the song calledYou ought to know and if you had heard the song you would know what I'm talking about and I'm sure that everybody has heard you all to know so you know what I'm saying.

This was the one-time when Alanis Morissette put out a really angst ridden album and it's was perfect still is. Jaggy little pill left a really lasting impression on me end that's why I'm writing this article today because I wanted to do a review of it to share with you in case meaning you whoever is reading this in case you ever want to pick up this album or get it on Spotify or wherever you get your digital music it would be worth your time to listen to it. Even if you don't if you even if you're not into alternative music or something it's just a really good album that you canPlay anywhere. The album was released on Madonna's label imprint Maverick and Alanis worked with Glen Balard for the whole album who was her producer on the album. I guess Alanis' angst only lasted for one album but it has been immortalized in a really cool album that had gone down in history for the ages.
