Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette

Pros: Songs, lyrics, melodies, attitude.

Cons: ...

The Bottom Line: Alanis Morissette deserved every accolade she earned for her debut, Jagged Little Pill. "Special" cannot even come close to describing this album. Incredible, really.

Review: Alanis Morissette came to me as a blur of white across the television screen. She had the voice of an angel, and angst-ridden lyrics to match. Then, of course there was the fact that her music was above all other things rock n roll. And in...

Pros: Sensational melodies, and one-liners up the wazoo

Cons: Truth hurts. Overplayed singles.

The Bottom Line: If you're one of the very few who haven't heard Jagged Little Pill, you would be surprised if you did.

Review: Dearest Alanis,

I want you to be my wife. You have proven beyond the shadow of a doubt that indeed, you are the one for me. Everytime I hear you singing about how fascinated you are by the spiritual man, how humbled you are by his humble...

Pros: unbelievably strong lyrics, great lyrical float of rock sound, a cappella on bonus track

Cons: not too keen on listening to You Oughta Know twice

The Bottom Line: I believe everyone owns the disc already, so let me ramble a bit on how this album changed my view on music.

Review: I can logically divide my life into several parts in numerous ways, but usually I name two dates as the turn points. On December 31, 1996 I learnt what music actually was by listening to the music marathon on my favorite [Russian-American, by the...

Pros: Truth, honesty, and some pretty darned good music.

Cons: Over played by me and the radio stations

The Bottom Line: Alainis Morissette's "debut" album Jagged Little Pill is an emotional and gut wrenching look at relationships gone wrong.

Review: A few years back I was in the middle of a developmental stage that included depression, coming to terms with my life to date, and feeling really sorry for myself. One day I was driving to work thinking about how terrible my life had been and really...

Pros: Where Alanis began. Lyrically and creatively expressive.

Cons: Vocalizations may drive some mad.

The Bottom Line: She s here, she s angry, she has a message, she s inquisitive, she rants, she vocalizes, so deal.

Review: In honor of Alanis? third studio album Under Rug Swept I look back on where it all started. Jagged Little Pill was a rare album. Out of nowhere came this very apparently angry yet creative woman who sung songs yet told stories at the...

Pros: Great songs, moving rhythms, nice tunes.

Cons: Not any at all.

The Bottom Line: This has got to be my favorite driving music since Boz Skagg's Lido Shuffle.

Review: I've rarely found an album that had such a strong body of work. Listening to any album, we are lucky if 1/3 the content blows us away. Steve Miller's Fly Like an Eagle was pretty awesome the summer I turned 17.

Jagged Little Pill is filled...

Pros: Unique Lyrics and Artist Style

Cons: Too Much Of Negativity Can Make One Sour

Review: I was just going through a painful breakup when I discovered this album. I had never heard of Alanis Morissette before, but one of my internet friends said I should listen to her because I could relate. Boy, was he right!

Alanis brings out...

Pros: her tongue..."in your face"lyrics, and unique voice

Cons: if i had to name one, I'd say WAKE UP. Normally would be a good song, It just doesn't have the edge that the rest of the songs do.

Review: In 1995 MCA Music Publishing gave us Alanis Morissette. Releasing Jagged Little Pill, Alanis's debut, we listened. With her unique voice, her wail, and her "send you home crying to your momma" lyrics. She kicks butt!

12 songs, no cheats,...

Pros: grrrreat for the angrrrry grrrrrls

Cons: i'm a fan so there isn't any, to me

Review: Yeps, I actually went ahead and bought a new copy of the album simply because my first one was too scratched up. In fact this is the first time I've listened to a cd so many times over and over that it became so used and I had to dump it out and get...

Pros: everything

Cons: none

Review: Alanis Morissette's Jagged Little Pill is perhaps one of the most amazing albums of the 90's. While most popular music listeners are aware of Alanis' amazing commercial success, this can turn off a lot of people from buying it because America finds...
