  • It's not about India. Baba means father in many languages, and it's quite obvious she's using it in that sense. Nor is it solely about Catholicism or Hinduism. The song is about organized religions that use people for their own benefit, greedy religious leaders who watch as people bow at their feet and pay them for a promised salvation they never actually receive. Performing this for the POPE, of all people, was either very brave or very stupid. Either way I admire her for it.

  • maybe thats why she's playing Baba this time, a song about organized religion and how people blindly follow it

  • LOL this is the most ironic thing I've seen in years. Man, I love this woman. In this video she's basically slapping the pope, the church and all the believers right in the face while they all bow in front of her and appalude her. XD SHE is BABA!

  • hell yea baby girl... kill it

  • i absolutly LOVE this song

    A.M. <3

    theeee bestttt!

  • to the pope really? did anyone else sang to him too? what festival was this?

  • probably. Could you imagine if she did "Forgiven" LOL

  • why does the pope never appears in the clip? was he angry? because of the message of the song?

  • absolutly awesome ! I love ALANIS !

  • The live version is nice. Beautiful song, with a message for all of us (including the religious - myself included). Follow your beliefs because you believe in them, not because someone tells you to. -

  • This is about Sai Baba in India, kids.
