this last album finally removed the blindfold from my eyes… The Alanis we met in the 90s is long gone, and she wont be coming back.

“underneath” sounds like any other song off of “So Called Chaos”, her 2004 album (she released an album after Jagged little Pill?)

songs like “not as we” and “torch” sound horribly done before if you’ve bothered to listen to her since the auspicious “Supposed former…” which ended up letting down the world and sold nowhere near her 1st home run of 30million albums

i believe this album was done under the idea that the beats were meant for madonna, she didn’t like them..and so alanis just borrowed them.

straitjacket is just a vague attempt at a want-to-feel-good-dance-techno song… furthermore it ends up being as impressionalbe as “tapes” and “giggling again for no reason”

the album is ultimately an amalgamation of identity crisis and poor genre jumping attempts.

the album may have you dancing, however rare the moment, and crying with her if you listen to the lyrics, but as soon as it ends, you realize it didnt really do anything for you..

I have to say this record is brilliant. “Citizen of the Planet” begs to be played and re-played over and over again. I adore you Alanis.

I think Alanis has just grown up and her “anger” has evolved into conflict.

Alanis’ song writing is superb on this album. I was impressed with the wit that conveyed such conflict. The lyrics weave such a vibrant picture and her voice just resounds the pain/triumphant.

I was touched by the song “Moratorium”. It is a reflection of what we all struggle with, “do I give up”. It’s about moving on and accepting it’s okay to “die” so you can live again.

The song, “Underneath” has the familiar rhythm Alanis’ music has had in the past and has us inside looking out with potent lyrics like: “Look at us break our bonds in this kitchen; Look at us rallying all our defenses; Look at us waging war in our bedroom; Look at us jumping ship in our dialogues.”

Never before has Alanis Morissette created such a tribute to the emotions of humanity, our struggles within ourselves, our homes and our world.

The music is a little bit of everything…hip hop to folk and pure Alanis.

This album will put Alanis back on the charts with every song having the potential to stand on it’s own.

It’s definately going to be one album you won’t replace in your cd player anytime soon!
