that voice...there’s only one...no other like it...nobody even close

Indeed brother

[@mjmatthew54]

I have rediscovered her after not having listened to her in 15 years. What a joy to experience her talent as if it’s new again.

[@zackstark24601]

Someone give her the Tony she deserves it I’ve seen the show twice and this song is magnificent

[@ahyaahya2447]

Agreed with you

[@KaikCH]

17 tony nominations + 1 grammy nomination 😅🖤

[@zackstark24601]

@@KaikCH The show got 15 Tony Nominations unfortunately it did not get nominated for best score because most of the songs were from the original 90s Grammy Winning Album Only two new songs in the show are Smiling & Predator

Same energy the unplugged MTV Alanis 🤗 😍😍😍

[@alamors2001]

This is VERY Alanis and album worthy! I'm assuming it's gonna be on the new album as well since it has the album name in it?!?!

[@ColumbusMatthew]

I love her so much. I'm seeing Jagged Little Pill in two weeks and I can't wait. I've loved her music for 25 years and seen her in concert multiple times. I'm sure I'll ugly cry. Ha!

[@haddynough8402]

This is a life of extremes Both sides are slippery and enticing These are my places off the rails And this, my loose recollection of a falling I barely remember who I failed I was just trying to keep it together This is my first wave of my white flag This is the sound of me hitting bottom This my surrender, if that's what you call it In the anatomy of my crash And I keep on smiling Keep on moving Can't stand still Me, the notorious bottom dweller Me, the ceiling-less brave explorer Lured to the ends of overwhelm This is my first wave of the white flag This is the sound of me hitting bottom This my surrender, if that's what I call it In the anatomy of my crash And I keep on smiling Keep on moving Can't stand still Such pretty forks in the road On this continuum I've been bouncing Life flashing promise before my eyes This is my first wave of my white flag This is the sound of me hitting bottom This my surrender, if I can bare it In the anatomy of my crash And I keep on smiling Keep on moving Can't stand still

She truly is amazing. An inspirational singer-songwriter, very unique talent. Glad she looks happy and is performing again.

Unique voice and artist.. Never to be forgotten.. thank you Alanis

She has not lost her voice at all. It’s tone is still the same. Often age deepens a voice over time, but so far not Alsnis

Easily one of her best. I knew it would be amazing after listing to this. Then when the studio version came out I was blown away. Incredible song!

Totally Awesome that she is making music again. Love her and I would love to see the musical. Her music got me through my PPD and PTSD. I thank her talent💖

[@laurenblake659]

It got me through a bad spin with depression out of high school/first semester of college (still have depression but i'm not in the place i was then). It was Jagged Little Pill just expressed every angsty, angry, depressed, and confused feeling i had had and it helped me feel better. The new album coming up (from the two songs we have gotten so far) has given me the same energy now 🙂

[@butterfly-pax2604]

@@laurenblake659Thank you for sharing your story.Im glad that she has helped you too, when you were in a bad Spiral in your life.Its important that we talk about it to stop the stigma. I too still have major depression, had this since I was 14 now Im much older and was diagnosed with it and finally on medication. I have two teenage girls and Im thankful that I finally have medication to help with therapy. They are the reason that I keep fighting. I find it comforting that she has shared her experiences in her music and blessed to be able to listen on KZbin. She is an inspiration. Music is the best Therapy and Im thankful for this.

This song is incredible. Listening to it here months ago, I knew it would be my favourite off of the new record. When the studio version was released it friggen blew my mind. It is in my top three favourite Alanis songs ever. The production is delicious on the ears. #suchprettyforksintheroad ✨

"Where" a big fan in the 90tees.. then ms came rude into my life.. And yes it whas my white flag indeed. Nice lyrics as usual alanis. Ty

[@joet7644]

Great song. But I find it weirdly hard to hear her describe her mother as a 'really good woman'. She wrote Heart of the House, which is one of my favourite tracks. That's not a song by someone who thinks their mother is good. I'm very confused.

[@ttaitt]

I’m confused by that statement. There is nothing about Heart of the House that suggests that her mother was not a good person. Nothing at all. Secondly, even if that were the case, SFIJ was written in 1997 and this video is from 2020. Do you not think that one’s reflections on a parent could evolve over TWENTY-THREE years???

[@joet7644]

@ttaitt there's absolutely loads: - 'At least with your low maintenance you loved us more than we could have loved you'. An awful feeling for a parent to engender in a child; basically saying 'I'm great and giving you everything you should need, but you will never be able to appreciate how great I am. - 'All hail the Godess'. Similar to the point above. I've always considered this line to be sarcastic, but even if it's in some way genuine it's not healthy. - 'where did you get that from? Must have been your father, you Dad. I got it from you I got it from you!'. Virtually pleading to be listened to and understood by a mother who isn't capable of recognising herself in her child. That's just three. There are loads of others.
