If you grew up in the 90’s there’s a pretty good chance you shouted and screamed at the top of your lungs to an Alanis Morissette song. If you went through a bad breakup then you definitely did, because even if she didn’t quite understand the meaning of the word ‘ironic’ she just ‘got’ your pain.
During Taylor Swift’s latest show of her 1989 tour she one upped her last guests, Chris Rock and Matt LeBlanc, exciting fans at the Staples Center in Los Angeles by singing a duet with Alanis. More from the Daily Beast:
“She defined the music of her decade,” announced Swift. “She inspired a generation of confessional female singer-songwriters who all of a sudden felt like you could actually say these raw feelings that you had; you could actually sing about your real life, you could put detail to it, you could get really, really made if you wanted to. And I think it’s fair to say that so many of the female singer-songwriters of my generation, including myself, would not write the way that we do without her and her music. And she has written some of the most brilliant music—in particular probably inarguably the greatest breakup song of all time.”
Here’s your useless fact for the day, the man that inspired this song is Dave Coulier, the former Full House actor. Yeah, this guy…
Hey Alanis, isn’t that ironic, don’t you think?
