Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

You could argue that Jagged Little Pill is the commercialised face of grunge. You could argue that Morrisette is just a cynical businesswoman, courting controversy with a few carefully placed, risqué references. You could even argue that this whole angst-rock is just a comfort-blanket for the therapy-generation. But it's still hard to argue that Jagged Little Pill isn't a great album. After all, it's the perfect alternative/mainstream crossover. There's "You Oughta Know", which marries its vitriolic, explicit narrative to thunderous, airbrushed grunge. With references to oral sex, Middle America were shocked, but not quite offended: it sold by the truckload. There's "Ironic", where Morrisette laments the trials that face every housewife ("there's ten thousand spoons / when all you need is a knife") to a scream-along, mosh-friendly chorus. The simple truth is, on Jagged Little Pill, the Canadian-born Alanis Morrisette does a very good job of being America's Everywoman. --Louis Pattison


CD Description

Debut album by the Ottawa-born alternative pop/rock singer-songwriter. Her work has been compared to that of Tori Amos and Fiona Apple. Includes the singles, 'Hand In My Pocket', 'You Oughta Know' and 'Ironic'.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best piece of Alternative music EVER!, 8 Jan 2003
By Ahmed (Canada) - See all my reviews
An inspiring album that is peaceful, enjoyable and at the same time one you would want to dance along with. Jagged Little Pill is still Alanis' best album ever as well as being one of my all time favourite albums!

The hit of the album for quite a few people was the Grammy-award winning single of the year "you outta know"! Well...not exactly my thoughts. My friends and I always loved "ironic" even before the video was released. "Ironic" is a peaceful, fun, alternative musical theme that you would want to play constantly. It's Alanis' biggest "CD single sales" track being certified gold. If you enjoyed "thank you" you would enjoy this single. It's one of my all-time favourite records (see listmania list). Alanis is a great singer with a fabulous voice and a great writer. If you happen to enjoy this album you should check out "rug under swept" and "Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie". But if you're only going to buy one Alanis album, this one should be it.

Ironic- The hit of the album for me. This alternative/pop trackis peaceful and very enjoyable.

U outta know- A rock bad-tempered constructive single.

Hand in my pocket- good voice variations and a good constant background beat.

You learn- A sweet catchy beat, second only to "ironic".

Head over feet- Another enjoyable new age type catchy single.

Wake up- the album's longest track, a solid sweet alternative rock hit!

Different songs in their own way make this album one that would be enjoyable for all Alanis Morissette, Sheryl Crow, Celine Dion, Enya, Shania Twain, Christina Aguilera, and U2 fans! If you like this album you should check out some of her other works (mainly "thank you" and "hands clean")!

5.0 out of 5 stars I never get tired of this album, 25 Jan 2002
By A Customer
'Jagged Little Pill' was recently voted at number 42 in 'Q' music magazine's best 50 albums of the last 15 years. We're talking alongside Radiohead, Sringsteen, U2 and all the other music greats. Personally I think Alanis' music is a fantastic change to the current obsession with trashy teen pop which regurgitates the same old stuff every month. Pop artists bring out crappy albums in quick succession, but we have to wait over 2 years for something new from the truly great artists. This album has stood the test of time in my cd collection. There is a song for every mood (although non-fans claim Alanis is depressing.) Every one of her songs has something to say about an aspect of life, from religion to relationships. Alanis consistently produces some of the best lyrics I've heard in a long time. Its too easy for female lyricists to be labelled negatively, but anyone with brains can she this woman has talent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great CD!, 22 Mar 2003
By K. Wyatt "ssintrepid" (St. Louis, MO United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Jagged Little Pill is one of those rare albums where every song on it deserves to be a number one hit. I don't know about anybody else but I can listen to this cd over and over again without skipping a single song on it. You can feel the heart she put into this album. Absolutely a great effort. {ssintrepid}
