The first single, Guardian, will be released on iTunes May 15, with the radios getting it four days ahead of that. Here's a recent interview: http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/q-a-alanis-morissette-on-her-new-lp-kinship-with-leonardo-dicaprio-20120502 So freaking excited!

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 I will always have some weird type of soft spot for her, but really, I haven't heard anything I've really enjoyed from her since Supposed Former Infatuated Junkie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted May 8, 2012 Author Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 That's interesting because I absolutely adore Under Rug Swept and enjoy So Called Chaos as well... It wasn't until Flavors of Entanglement that I was a bit (maybe a lot) disappointed, although there were some stand-outs there as well. I just hope she goes back to her usual type of music. Maybe she should work with Ballard again (unless there was so backstage thing that happened) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 Ballard refined her music, which is probably what she really needs and hasn't had for a while - direction. I thought her albums since Supposed Former Infatuated Junkie were uneven and heavily retreads at best. It's like she's tried but never quite managed to successfully blend the spirituality of Junkie with the raw honesty of Jagged Little Pill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MissLlanviewPA Posted May 8, 2012 Members Share Posted May 8, 2012 She's got a new album coming out? Cool! I've always loved her, although I haven't really heard much of her music since "Hands Clean"--which was ten years ago (and I was 13). "Thank U" is a favorite of mine.

Members YRBB Posted May 10, 2012 Author Members Share Posted May 10, 2012 I can definitely agree with that but I think the other three still stand pretty well on their own. Here's the new song: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted May 10, 2012 Author Members Share Posted May 10, 2012 I absolutely love the intro and the melodic quality of it... although I was initially somewhat disappointed by the chorus. It kinda stuck to my head, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted May 16, 2012 Members Share Posted May 16, 2012 I had no idea that Alanis had a new album and I actually like this new song. I am a huge fan. I saw her in person in this small club in DC and her voice is even more amazing in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Huntress Posted August 15, 2012 Members Share Posted August 15, 2012 "Guardian" entered the German Top100 at #15 last week. This is her best-charting single here since 1998 when "Ironic" peaked at #8. Coincidentally, the official video was also filmed in Germany <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/7q0reAgBMYA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted October 8, 2014 Author Members Share Posted October 8, 2014 19 years since Jagged Little Pill. Funny how it was reviewed as average at best & yet turned out to be an absolute classic. http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/6274250/alanis-morissette-jagged-little-pill-19-years?facebook_20141007 I'm off to listen to it for the 10,000th time. I hope I'll get to see her live again soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted November 13, 2015 Author Members Share Posted November 13, 2015 Truly, deeply hilarious, especially the end part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cct Posted November 13, 2015 Members Share Posted November 13, 2015 One of the things I love about Alanis is her ability to not take herself too seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
