Скачать или смотреть It Figures: The Story of Alanis Morissette's 'Ironic'

There is no mistaking Alanis Morisette for anyone else. She is the one and only Alanis - Can you even think of anyone else out there named Alanis?


Ms. Morissette also has one of the most recognizable singing voices of her generation, one that helped her sell more than 33 million copies of her album, Jagged Little Pill. Only Shania Twain’s Come On Over has sold more copies than Jagged Little Pill, making it the second best selling album by any Canadian ever. That list includes Celine Dion, Drake, The Weeknd, Justin Bieber, Rush and Nickelback. In fact, no Canadian male or Canadian band has sold more copies of an album than Alanis. She is that awesome.


Jagged Little Pill reinvented the female singer-songwriter in pop music, and gave women the confidence and strength to express themselves authentically.


Rolling Stone called it “a landmark moment for the music industry and the soundtrack of a generation.” And it didn’t take long for that new generation of self-assured female singer-songwriters to emerge in the wake of Alanis’s success. 


This is the story of its massive single Ironic, with newly unearthed audio from Alanis Morissette herself.
