LYRICS
How ‘bout getting off of these antibiotics
How ‘bout stopping eating when I'm full up
How ‘bout them transparent dangling carrots
How ‘bout that ever elusive "could have"
Thank you, India
Thank you, terror
Thank you, disillusionment
Thank you, frailty
Thank you, consequence
Thank you, thank you, silence
How ‘bout me not blaming you for everything
How ‘bout me enjoying the moment for once
How ‘bout how good it feels to finally forgive you
How ‘bout grieving it all one at a time
Thank you, India
Thank you, terror
Thank you, disillusionment
Thank you, frailty
Thank you, consequence
Thank you thank you silence
The moment I let go of it
Was the moment I got more than I could handle
The moment I jumped off of it
Was the moment I touched down
How ‘bout no longer being masochistic
How ‘bout remembering your divinity
How ‘bout unabashedly bawling your eyes out
How ‘bout not equating death with stopping
Thank you India
Thank you Providence,
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you nothingness
Thank you clarity
Thank you thank you silence...

[@JaredJonesAZ]

When I was a kid I used to hate this video. Now I realize it's the perfect metaphor for enlightenment. You walk through life completely vulnerable and exposed, but never afraid or weak because a sense of wisdom, strength, and inner peace stays with you. Every now and then a fellow compassionate soul reaches out to you with love and affirmation, and in that moment it means more than all the supposed promised love of paradise.

[@cedergrenpeter]

Beautifully said ...

[@schaferhundschmidt1798]

My Dad died in Feb. 1990 at the age of 58. My Mom just passed this August, 3 days before my Birthday. This song reminds me so much of following in Dad's footsteps. Every Christmas he invited anyone who was alone to join our family for a Christmas dinner. After he passed and Mom moved, I called it "The Lonely Hearts Dinner"....Every Christmas night Open House and played Counting Crows. This year, I am just hoping for 2024 to be better than last year. Thankfully, my friends, nephew and his wife got me through a rough December. Love to all....may we all have a better year and continue to listen to CC's incredible music, year after year. XO

[@gemarius1279]

May 31,2021 101👍 it's not about just learning, you have to do it & apply it in your life. An addict of anything has to mean it with their life to stop & say thank you. Suicidal has to fight to be happy & say thank you life. You find who you want to be that is the goodness of a higher power. It took me 50yrs. to finely realize who I am. Now I can stop counting & enjoy my life. I like this song 💕 Namaste

[@jacob7_7_7]

I see a rather esoteric message, in regards to the awakening-driven thanking for a higher-level of consciousness. India (a wink to hinduism, I suppose), the void, the present moment, forgiveness, remembering one's divinity (spiritual identity), her gaze into/interaction with what one would describe to be the astral, she's naked which symbolizes that she's without a mask, that she has let go off her ego, etc... all new age/spiritual concepts.

Nudity can represent more than one thought. It can represent vulnerability and it can represent freedom from social definitions and it represent total honesty, nothing hidden no costumes, no games. I see all 3 in this video. Her vulnerability is not weakness but a non aggressive spirit and humility that comes from recognizing one's self and her role in the universe. If you watch her face and expression throughout the video, there is no fear or confusion but the look of someone who has won a spiritual battle and won awareness and is profoundly grateful

At the time that Alanis wrote this back in 1998, she had just come out of an exile that lasted a year and half. She had went into exile to recover from the stresses of having had her first successful album, the pressures of having just finished a worldwide tour promoting it, and fans constantly asking her when the next album's coming out. Geminis don't handle stress that well. They have to have some time to cool off, which is basically what Alanis did by going to India, which she gives thanks to in the song. When her follow up did come out, songs with lyrics like this weren't expected by fans and many panned it at the time as a result. Fans expected Alanis to follow up with the same revenge lyrics that made "Jagged Little Pill" the success it became and she didn't do that. She went her own way on "Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie" and as a result, the album didn't have the huge sales success of her prior album.

She could have put in half the effort and it still would have been an adequate performance to satisfy the audiences experienced expectations correspondent compensation having gotten their moneys worth; However, she put in such an energetic and powerful oversoul effort, giving far above and beyond what anyone could ever bargain for. She left such a lasting impression on me that this “jagged little pill” record would prove to be a magnificent song writing masterpiece that assured her a well deserved permanent residency for her gifted contribution to the music & arts world stage.

A lot of people have wondered what the line "How bout them transparent dangling carrots" is about. Consider the common idiom "carrot and stick", where a dangling carrot is a motivation or an incentive to do something. Something transparent is obvious or clear. So a "transparent dangling carrot" is an invisible motivation in life that we're all obviously using as crutches to reach the lofty goals and imaginary measures of success that society makes us pressure ourselves to reach ("SOME day I'll have my dream house/job/relationship"). But we do it anyway because that's how we get by and what the world expects. This song is about stopping all that nonsense and appreciating what you already have around you instead.

[@kathybramley5609]

There's also some musical theory about uplifting music that's relevant. The musical passages have literally uplifting patterns in the various parts. If you take them apart and analyse them. Probably. But the vocal melody and the the organ drift against each other and have contrasting timbre to make a trippy floaty feel. And then the lyrics, very much including the hook, are full of simple hearfelt gratitude and yet also mysterious and expansive spirituality. I'm not trying to ruin it for you, honest. It's just you make it sound more mysterious than it is. Even though it feels mysteriously uplifting and the feeling is real enough. Wonder, gratitude, and expansiveness are important emotions. They do have emotional almost synaesthetic musical sounds too. They can be represented. And that's a skill of good songwriting. It's intuitive but it's also technical. It's not randomly generated effects.

The song "Thank U" by Alanis Morissette is about learning to be grateful for both the good and bad moments in life. In her lyrics, she expresses gratitude for difficult experiences such as taking antibiotics, enduring disillusionment, living with consequences and weakness, and being open to change. It also acknowledges the need to forgive, be vulnerable and leave negative situations behind.

I believe in the 80s they pumped farm animals with preventative medicine instead of addressing their stress and poor living conditions and their man-made hellhole life. This then resulted in hormone disruption in humans, immune system issues, cancer etc and they tried reducing the chemicals and raising animal welfare (not very successfully). I believe "antibiotics" were a metaphor for medication you didn't need to take. Ergo addressing the real trauma.
