It's hard to believe this album from a bitter woman is about this guy.
4. Jagged Little Pill (1995) - Alanis Morisette 76/100. As a college student in the mid-90's I have mixed feelings about Jagged Little Pill. For one, it was impossible to go anywhere in the vicinity of a member of the female species in 1995 without the album being on. It was THE women's lib album of the 90's. That being said, I knew it pretty well when I re-listened to it again today. However, it had been a long time since I had heard and have to say that it didn't stand the test of time like Phair's Guyville (and I don't think I would be going too far out on a limb to say that Guyville had strong influences on this album). In fact, I would say it greatly regressed. Rather dull throughout, hell even the sexual overtones were boring. You Ought To Know is still ok just because I dig me some Flea. But, most of the other tracks come off as incessant whining instead of music. Listened - 11/20/10
Favorite Tracks: You Ought to Know, Right through You, Not the Doctor
