naval23 Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 After the smash era of "Jagged Little Pill", the GP wanted more. Alanis would go on to release this as the lead single of her long awaited follow-up era "Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie" She recorded the song after an inspirational trip to India It reached #1 in Canada, #3 in New Zealand and became her biggest peaking single in the UK peaking at #5, while peaking at #17 in the USA (reaching #2 on radio). The music video features Alanis nude through the streets "Basically, I had never stopped in my whole life, hadn't taken a long breath, and I took a year and a half off and basically learned how to do that. When I did stop and I was silent and I breathed... I was just left with an immense amount of gratitude, and inspiration, and love, and bliss, and that's where the song came from, you know." 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloodflowers. Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Amazing single choice! Alanis should've followed up with "That I Would Be Good" as second single but I think she thought it was too lyrically familiar with Thank U, but that song would've been another powerful empowerment hit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
