Very gentle people here!
In Germany we cut throats, if anybody dares to sing like an idiot!
Just a little advice: Stay away from your keyboard while your drunk..... |

Ahhhhh. Just about as ghastly as I remember. I need some "mind brillo" to scrub the fact that this song was ever written.  |

I think if you had seen the performance you would have noticed that Morissette felt the same way as I do. Of course she wrote the song, which is a more impressive feat in my mind. But the Idol contestant clearly has the better vocal ability. No contest. I have different spin on this. I think Alanis recognized the moment was not about her but rather Crystal's and took an appropriate back seat. Hard for some to leave ego at the door. |

If it starts getting lots of play time...  Totally agree. Sometimes I'm in the mood for it and other times I'm not. It's really black or white. Evocative, but. . . . not today, thank you. |

Please... let this be the last time she ever darkens this channel.
Banal lyrics, pretentious vocal 'stylings' and overplayed, cliche progressions. She is the 'Tiffany' of alternative songwriting.
There is soooo much, that is sooo much better than this. She belongs in the dustbin of mediocrity.
AAAAAAAAAAAAHHH, Turin Brakes. Thanks, Bill.

I enjoy most of her music. Not this song, though. Terribly annoying.  |

Crystal, from American Idol, didnt at all match Alanis for their duet performance. Nothing compares to Alanis!

I remember first hearing this album before it hit AM Radio and thinking...
"Kinda cool. Has no chance in the mainstream and she'll die a critically aclaimed indie artist. But kinda cool."
Geez, how wrong can ya get?  |

It's as if they had her running around the studio chased by a pitbull terrier 20 times right before recording this song.
