  • I'm glad Alanis agreed to remake this video- this one is 100% better than the old, wimpy "knight in shining armor", split-screen version(although they included an element of it here). This one has more of Alanis's personality stamped on it- so cool!

  • ..so girlie :D ..yet very Bliss filled indeed

  • wow i never saw this version only the one with the split screen... and there is one more? were?

  • The song represents some inner conflict of logical and rational versus idealism and emotional.

  • so kitsch!

  • Her voice in parts of this video reminds me so much of her voice in the video or her early song "No Apologies".

    She might not like that comparison, though. ;-)

  • Really awesome!!My Compliments!!!!

  • This is 100% better than the original "split-screen" video version originally aired on VH1.

  • I wonder if this one was produced but rejected (by her?) because as good as it is, it doesn't advance the lyric concepts the way the split-screen video does.

  • I remember this song from years ago and today I somehow found it. It brings back memories of where I used to live..

  • this is not the official video isn't it?

    i remember something about a story of a princess...

  • ME TOO!!! and sadly i cant find it anywhere on you tube =( anyone knows where i can view it??

  • She had to take her videos down because of Warner Bros owning the rights to Maverick's recordings and such!

  • yep- it's titled "Alanis Morissette- Precious Illusions- music video". I think the new one is better though.

  • check my channel, youll find it there.

  • All I can say is WOW....never seen such a video but it is very nicely done and I hope this does not get taken down.....very well done!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • great video.

  • Were all of her "precious illusions" truly illusions? Could a number of them have been perfectly realistic ideals she simply lost faith in?

    I don't think any human truly knows the answer to that, not even Alanis herself.

  • Cool, artistic alternative version to the original "split-screen" video aired on VH1.

  • this song is fabulous, I have the original in my favorites!

  • speechless

  • I love this vid!

  • Amazing

  • i love this song, and this video is better than the other... btw.. anyone know if I can get that Alanis bobblehead? haha ;)

  • I like this, but why are there two videos? Why was this one made? Was it a promo or something?

  • One of her best songs, ever!

  • i love this woman

  • why dont you love me?

  • Brilliant video!

  • i love this song

  • i love this one

  • great video.

  • She rocks indeed!

  • nice vid and everything but what ever happened to the original? I can't seem to find it anywhere :S

  • i got it

  • lol i think alanis thinks she rocks

  • she does rock, you idiot

  • What's wrong with that? :)

    Anyway, I love this version of the video.

  • Love this video, very creative! :)

  • very interesting...I like the other vid better, but this has an unusual artistic quality about it

  • this video is really wierd... i like most of it, but the butterflies don't look right.

    also noticed the butterfly on her chest was like the "feast on scraps" cover.

  • Really cool!

  • very cool, was this a real vid?

  • Yeah it was...I think there were 3 Precious Illusions videos made altogether!

  • very well done
