MAN, ALANIS, YOU HAVE SAID IT SO WELL AND I HOPE THAT THE FOOLS THAT GIVE UP ON A DAMN GOOD WOMAN, SOON KNOW IT, WAKES UP AND REALIZES HOW FOOLISH THEY WERE! THEY'RE THE REAL LOSERS IN THE END...TOOO BAD TOOO SAD CAUSE A GOOD WOMAN WILL NOT LOSE, THEY WILL BE RESCUED, CHERISHED AND LOVED BEYOND WHAT THEY WILL EVER BE CAPABLE OF DOING!!!!
She totally wrote this song about Alisdair Gillis. Christine "Moose" McGlade was the other woman, not Lisa Ruddy or Vanessa Lindross as has been suggested. In hindsight Alister should have listened to Ruth Busy and stuck with Alanis, but at the time Moose was a little older and Alisdair couldn't resist. Marjorie Silcoff convinced Alanis to write a song about it and Brodie started the rumor about this song being about the guy from fullhouse. Take that, Adam Reid! Les Lye would be proud.idk slime
@JaneLame Anger can be a very healthy emotion. Never blame yourself for someone not loving you. My heart reaches out to you. If you ever want to talk, message me, ok?
@JaneLame Anger can be a very healthy emotion. Never blame yourself for someone not loving you. My heart reaches out to you. If you ever want to talk, message me, ok?
@JaneLame that's the stupidest crap i've ever heard. aint your fault. aint his/her fault. just circumstances. be happy u didnt marry him/her. be happy you are able to feel so deeply rather than go through life numb and cutoff and afraid like so many others
Who ever this song is about, hes an idiot for dumping Alanis. Its not about the money but this guy could have had anything he wanted with this girl. But then again, this song may have never been written if the prick stayed with her. Its obvious here that Alanis loved the guy very much.
i know this was posted four months ago but i am a huge fan of Alanis, I must say Alanis would be honored if u did name your daughter after her....I think it is awesome!!
Un-fucking-believable song! Great version. Can't believe she faded so rapidly. Maybe if she waited to make it her 3rd or 4th single instead of her 1st, it would've been appreciated more. And kudos to the record company that said, yeah...don't change a thing, though none of the fucking FM stations I ever heard it on played the unedited version. Fuck Beyonce and Witless Spears. THIS was sexy. Still is.
i know what you mean, i wish i had this earlier to give to my ex cuz she waited a week before she started dating some other guy :( at least she said she waited a week...
she is so awesome, she is also a great singer..... her songs relate so close to people.. .at first I thought she was talking about a guy in all of her songs, but she's just relating to all people, and situations that people get into occasionally
Yeah- but the point of this version was that it was 10 years later and the evolution of the feeling much like the song changed. It's like your angry at something be it a relationship or whatever but ten years go by- do you feel angry anymore? or just alittle sad and upset about it?
Sweet!

Here's hoping that Haley can pull this off, Alanis phrasing and tone is distinct and beautiful here.
If Haley can figure this out, with out trying to sound like Alanis, she could propel herself into the final with just this song. IMHO.
I wonder which judge came up with the idea.
I'm thinking Steven Tyler, but certainly not the anti-haley Randy the Hut.
