+Peter Newturkey She couldn't have responded more graciously! Who cares about the hair when you have all that valuable information coming out of that 20-year-old proper genius?
Peter Newturkey what's funny is the wavy/curly texture of her hair was the perm she had in her pop years. Probably the only part of her pop career that survived into the JLP era
Makes me want to consult my dictionary...seriously! She's more impressive than I thought. I'm inspired to write more now. Seems like she was really cultivated to be awesome from a very young age. Thank you for posting this.
@Demonic Sweaters The most forward thinking, phenomenal TV show has less than 800 subscribers. I enjoy a few of the shows, but what a WASTE!! This year would have been a PERFECT year to bring back videos. NEW videos. They would likely be STUPID. A lot of “stylistic” (🤮) bull-shenanigans that made no sense to any but the pretentious, ridiculously disturbed director...quite like “abstract” painting where you throw paint at a canvas, give it a monumental, imposing, prodigious title that sounds dramatic and vaguely impressive, like...”The Stars Wept in January” (copyright “The Other Side”, all rights reserved...look for my future masterpiece or poem, or novel, or album)...blah blah, “The Stars Wept in January”, (or Demonic Sweaters!! Good One!!!), make up a story about watching your Father drown a bag of kittens, and watch it sell for millions. (WHO ARE THE PEOPLE THAT BUY THAT tomfoolery ? (Sorry...I just love that word. 😮😲🙄😁😁😁). My point WAS...I agree, but it would have been a GREAT year to revamp, and the whiny little Reddit Doctors (you know, the teens diagnosing each other with personality disorders and sociopathy after reading a few Reddit posts...likely by other whiny teens 😠😡🙄🙄🙄🤮 admit it...you know a few! ) would be SO into w.e. nonsense they slapped together the night before, while watching Seinfeld reruns.
well... to me this interview is really a heart-warming experience. I haven't seen this in full unto now, being a fan since the late 90s and given what I / we know about her career now her attitude at that time is really inspiring. it really breaks my heart (again) to know how she'd been / how she'd felt at the end of the JLP tour that was to follow :( ... still, knowing how she's grown to be the artist she is today, I often fancy the thought of having a time machine at my disposal, being able to be there at these occasions, giving her a high-five or a hug or something :-) so, yeah I second that!
Alanis is one of the most inspirational people on this earth, hell, this whole universe. Alanis is my role model in life. Beautiful, well spoken and truly badass. Words just can’t describe my appreciation for her and I’m so thankful my parents have brought her into my life ❤️ And she even likes the Red Hot Chili Peppers, she’s just perfect oh my god.
After serious thought I decided she is my favorite female artist. A close second is Sheryl Crow, both are talented in a super human kind of way to me. To me, impressive music has the "wow factor" such as I strived for when I was a professional musician myself. Greatness with being different and unique. Jagged Little Pill music is a winner in both writing and vocal delivery. Watching this interview now I am impressed with her beauty and personality. What a cool lady she is and deserves her success. I hope she can continue the quality of her "Jagged Pill" content in the future projects.
I was three years old when jagged little pill was released. I remember my step mother getting the album. Each listen only makes me appreciate it more. Alanis makes my heart feel warm. Such a powerful person, a hell of a songwriter, and just downright cool as hell. I loved this interview, outside of the dumbass, hair moving pause that she didn’t need at all.
I miss being young too. So many do. I especially think of older people who are not as well anymore, have limited mobility and are in pain. I am grateful to have the privilege of getting older too though. Hugs
awesome ---authentic ----simple---intellectual---introspective as she says ---we need more of this now ---thank you for your music--still love after so many years
I'm glad someone else noticed the interviewer seemed disconnected and asking over topics that Alanis already answered. She had consistently closed ended questioning with neutral or negative connotation.
I have this theory that the industry was looking out for the next Alanis Morissette when they saw the direction her second album and subsequent tours were heading to… They wanted more of the angry punk rock and Alanis wasn’t in that place anymore so they quickly looked out for a replacement and they found this chick with similar vocal capacity, fabricated Avril the product with dark makeup, doll face, trendy clothes and accessories and everything, and put her on high rotation. When I started hearing about her I KNEW instantly people who have heard the singles and watched the videos of Jagged Little Pill shallowly without really listening or even buying the record or giving a follow up of her development would fall for the industry trap, and they did; and forgot about Alanis, the original style maker and influencer of that female post alternative era. She was already in another place and the music industry always wants money, flashy, younger, “sexier” and appealing things so they let her go and stuck with Avril and all of that “punk sk8ter boi” idiocy afterwards. Avril doesn’t even have her own style, since she’s not an original one she’s been jumping from sub genre to sub genre. That’s where you can point out where the authenticity remains. And agree with the comment she maybe has a good voice (again very stylistically similar to Alanis) but I have never ever heard of anyone talking seriously about any deep meaning to her lyrics or even music. It’s obvious her hits were written for her by other composers.
Wow, she sounds just as brilliant back then (as she does now). I can see why she struggled with connection, her brilliance was Ivy League. They don’t make Ivy League schools for pacifist, hippy-type artists.
People are making comments about the interviewer. I thought she was fine. Did not come off as pretentious. Just very straight forwards questions that I loved hearing the answers to.
Do you know if Alanis had her first MTV interview back then. She was twenty one at the time she did it. I remember seeing her on MTV back in 1995 when I was about twelve and was almost thirteen. I was in the seventh grade at South Jr. High. And I think she talked about her debut album "Jagged Little Pill" and her song called "You Oughta Know" and stuff like that. And I'm her number one fan.
La amo a Alanis Morissette es una mujer inspiradora y unica , amo su musica que realemente me inspira sus canciones sus letras positivas son un himno sin duda es una gran cantante . ❤💓 .
Alexis Contreras es la mujer q me anima ! Escuchando su musica q me inspira , q me enamora y me da fuerzas de seguir cuando estoy mal con tan solo escuchar su musica 😍
Absolutely HORRENDOUS journalism going on here, in terms of both content and process. Many questions had probative value but weren't pursued. Other questions weren't asked at all. Poorly prepared, rude (I could go on ...). They were lucky to have such a wonderful subject like Alanis to interview. Furthermore they were lucky to have "jobs" they were clearly unqualified to have. Hmm I wonder if nepotism, cronyism, favoritism, etc. played roles in getting hired in the first place? lmao
That guy who stopped her talking because of her hair is a douchebag!! Classic patriarchal "Your appearance matters more than what you say and think". Alanis was amazing then and she certainly still is now! ❤
She seemed so melancholy and depressed for a 20 year old, it's difficult to watch. I hope that she loosened up somewhat and enjoyed the rest of her youth.
I never like her music...except the video with the versions of her driving in the car...anyway...what a great interview. Articulate and straight forward. I actually was eager to hear her answers.
So well-spoken at age 21.
@Happy Thanos I was going to say the same thing. Have you seen her writing? lol
Yo a los 21 era un pelotudo y me la pasaba jugando Counter Strike y Playstation.
@Natasha Minor When release The New álbum?
24 year old women today act like they're 11
Natasha Minor we really were more mature kids in the 90s.
"This hair? I don't... Particularly care." L to the O to the L. Seriously. Why does that matter??? Just listen to the queen talk.
+Peter Newturkey I was thinking the same thing! :D
+Peter Newturkey She couldn't have responded more graciously! Who cares about the hair when you have all that valuable information coming out of that 20-year-old proper genius?
+michelmoutinhofr1 I can't believe they interrupted her for that shit.
Peter Newturkey what's funny is the wavy/curly texture of her hair was the perm she had in her pop years. Probably the only part of her pop career that survived into the JLP era
Lol 😂
She is such a beautiful writer and singer. Her style is so raw and real. I’m so inspired by her.
The way Alanis reels off answers to so many questions is just amazing! She is talented and humble....and that is a wicked combo!
She's so clever and well-spoken but also so down to earth. Wonderful woman with an amazing voice!
Makes me want to consult my dictionary...seriously! She's more impressive than I thought. I'm inspired to write more now. Seems like she was really cultivated to be awesome from a very young age. Thank you for posting this.
Indeed bro 😍👏
Oh, I forgot MTV used to be about music.

Wonder why they changed it :(
Yeah Right. I don't believe it. 😜
😂😂
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
It was a long time ago.
Man, I wish I could have a good sit down conversation with this woman.
well... to me this interview is really a heart-warming experience. I haven't seen this in full unto now, being
a fan since the late 90s and given what I / we know about her career now her attitude at that time is really inspiring.
it really breaks my heart (again) to know how she'd been / how she'd felt at the end of the JLP tour that was to follow :( ...
still, knowing how she's grown to be the artist she is today, I often fancy the thought of having a time machine
at my disposal, being able to be there at these occasions, giving her a high-five or a hug or something :-)
so, yeah I second that!
She speaks so eloquently!
And would she have your baby?!? Lmao
I'm sure she makes a really excellent mother. (Seriously, she has 3 kids now.)
You already won me over in spite of me.
I remember I had mad crushes on Alanna and Mariah back then. Both girls could really articulate their ideas very clearly. ❤
Alanis is one of the most inspirational people on this earth, hell, this whole universe. Alanis is my role model in life. Beautiful, well spoken and truly badass. Words just can’t describe my appreciation for her and I’m so thankful my parents have brought her into my life ❤️ And she even likes the Red Hot Chili Peppers, she’s just perfect oh my god.
Her teeth are amazing. Always loved that smile
That first record was Ass kicking. She had serious attitude in her music!
After serious thought I decided she is my favorite female artist. A close second is Sheryl Crow, both are talented in a super human kind of way to me. To me, impressive music has the "wow factor" such as I strived for when I was a professional musician myself. Greatness with being different and unique. Jagged Little Pill music is a winner in both writing and vocal delivery. Watching this interview now I am impressed with her beauty and personality. What a cool lady she is and deserves her success. I hope she can continue the quality of her "Jagged Pill" content in the future projects.
I won't disagree. As far as greatest singing voice, Natalie Cole, but Alanis's first two records are two that I can not not listen to.
Also two of my favourites. For Alanis, Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie is my absolute favourite. For Sheryl, it's The Globe Sessions.
Hayley Williams
I wasn't this eloquent and composed when I was 21! That's part of her beauty! ♥
She’s gorgeous! So glad I discovered this amazing woman been listening to her nonstop ever since I discovered her 6 years ago!!!
:] i used to listen to her when i was young...like atarting at 4 or 5 young. Bc my mom would play her. I love her. She gets me.
Natasha Minor that sounds awesome! I wish I could have experienced that.
I listening to her way back in 1995
This could be viewed as an historical artefact as we’re witnessing the birth of a 90s pop and cultural icon.
Incredibly poised, mature, and sharp for her age.
I was three years old when jagged little pill was released. I remember my step mother getting the album. Each listen only makes me appreciate it more. Alanis makes my heart feel warm. Such a powerful person, a hell of a songwriter, and just downright cool as hell. I loved this interview, outside of the dumbass, hair moving pause that she didn’t need at all.
She is glowing....I miss being young.
You can still glow and not be young [: absolutely
Actually She still glows!!!
I miss being young too. So many do. I especially think of older people who are not as well anymore, have limited mobility and are in pain. I am grateful to have the privilege of getting older too though. Hugs
@@brianna_4040 it's not the same. You don't have the same freshness anymore. One day you'll see...
Me too....I so wish I could go back in time when this album came out. I hate being old
So incredibly mature, thoughtful and centered at age 21. Amazing person.
My favorite Canadian of all time.....Her and of course, Terrance and Phillip.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Her and Ellen Page
Steven Crowder
Legend. FINALLY GOING TO SEE HER July 6 2024 CANT WAIT !!!!! 🎶
awesome ---authentic ----simple---intellectual---introspective as she says ---we need more of this now ---thank you for your music--still love after so many years
I find her truly fascinating. She has always been a source of inspiration for me.
WOW. How someone becomes that well spoken so early on, I don't know. It must be hard to be a genius
She is so beautiful 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Megalodon Unlocked get out of here!!! What is wrong with you?!
Megalodon Unlocked Troll!!!!
She is AWESOME! Love her spirit and optimism. Love her even more now.
Bow down to the queen. Been an obsessed fan since '94, I was 12... Loved her ever since. She's amazing & brilliant.
She's a little underwhelmed in that interview or by that interviewer, even a little mean - I love it!
Love her laugh at the end talking about loving 80s music
she is a real champ sticking out this interview. almost feels like she’s being interrogated by the police lol
Shane Hagan people think that an interview is cold and calculated opposed to a way to connect with the person you’re interviewing.
I'm glad someone else noticed the interviewer seemed disconnected and asking over topics that Alanis already answered. She had consistently closed ended questioning with neutral or negative connotation.
Such a smart woman
So introspective at such a young age…wow!
such an icon!
Such eloquence and focus in a 21yo!
My late sis was just her level omg and Alanis was her huge favourite,how they're same in terms of eloquence 😍💜👏
She is exceptional.
“The rest is history” 25 years later, it’s true.
MTV is the music channel way back then ... mis those days
She was 21 years old here. Compare to how singers and celebrities today speak in interviews.
Iconic alanis don't particularly care:)
I see who Avril looked up to when she came out. Both remind me of each other.
Avril has a beautiful voice, but she’s not a good lyricist.
Avril Lavigne may have looked-up to Alanis but she could never touch her. Avril Lavigne is a poser, plain and simple.
I have this theory that the industry was looking out for the next Alanis Morissette when they saw the direction her second album and subsequent tours were heading to… They wanted more of the angry punk rock and Alanis wasn’t in that place anymore so they quickly looked out for a replacement and they found this chick with similar vocal capacity, fabricated Avril the product with dark makeup, doll face, trendy clothes and accessories and everything, and put her on high rotation. When I started hearing about her I KNEW instantly people who have heard the singles and watched the videos of Jagged Little Pill shallowly without really listening or even buying the record or giving a follow up of her development would fall for the industry trap, and they did; and forgot about Alanis, the original style maker and influencer of that female post alternative era. She was already in another place and the music industry always wants money, flashy, younger, “sexier” and appealing things so they let her go and stuck with Avril and all of that “punk sk8ter boi” idiocy afterwards.
Avril doesn’t even have her own style, since she’s not an original one she’s been jumping from sub genre to sub genre. That’s where you can point out where the authenticity remains.

She is divine
16:42. priceless.
They didn't realize how great she is. Very stupid questions, they wasted it
Fiesty, beautiful, interesting, and highly intelligent, creative woman!
Beautiful
Epic and uncut.
She is so beautiful, my God! 😍
She is amazing
I will never forget my first car, (85 celica gt) doing burnouts and blasting JLP. Fav artist for sure.
thanks for uploading this
+Doug Graves YES.Thank you/ Merci ..nice to see this interview from the past . Kirk..in Montreal
A prodigy
She was very beautiful in this age. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Do you know if Alanis had her first MTV interview back then. She was twenty one at the time she did it. I remember seeing her on MTV back in 1995 when I was about twelve and was almost thirteen.

My late sis loved Alanis and so do I 💜💜😍
I would give my life for you, Alanis
Man, she was gorgeous (and still is). I was a big fan of her music in the 90s. Her speaking voice is deep, much different than her vocal range.
Omg she was such a baddie 😍
I was in 7th grade. She was huge and absolutely everywhere.
stunning looking woman !
Damn i was born in 1995.....
La amo a Alanis Morissette es una mujer inspiradora y unica , amo su musica que realemente me inspira sus canciones sus letras positivas son un himno sin duda es una gran cantante . ❤💓 .
Siento lo mismo que tú
Alexis Contreras es la mujer q me anima ! Escuchando su musica q me inspira , q me enamora y me da fuerzas de seguir cuando estoy mal con tan solo escuchar su musica 😍
Cristbert Top ❤️
She is amazing 🙏🎵❤️
Genius.
Alanis is so smart😘
Alanis ♥️🔝
Shes so hiiiiiiiiiggghh high above me, shes so lovely

My favourite singer ❤
That guy who stopped her talking because of her hair is a douchebag!!
Classic patriarchal "Your appearance matters more than what you say and think".
Alanis was amazing then and she certainly still is now! ❤
Nothing to do with patriarchal stuff, if she had a booger hanging out her nose, I'd hope they told her too.
12:50 "I definitely think I'm finding a happy medium now" **someone wispers** "no you're not" :D ;D
Lol.
😆
@12:13 her laugh. I always wonder the sound she was making as she laughs in her Head over feet mv hahahah love this girl.
She's so mature at 21 diffrent times
i dont really remember alanis being a sex symbol in the 90s...but my God she was stunning. the whole package right there.
My goddesses Cxxx 💚 💐 🌹
Memories
"I don't really particularly care." She's REAL. Always have loved this woman. She is a Goddess in my eyes and ears.
Queen 👑 cxxx 💐🌷💚 she is no normal soul
I can feel the awkwardness in this room...fun awkwardness..I guess..tense awkward funny...
lea rodriguez interviews tend to come off that way
She would love me no matter what!!
Это были суровые 90е .. потом пришла она. В кино богом, на кассетах. Тоже богом...
I can barely hear the people conducting the interview.
Goddamn I miss music before 2000’s
Isn't it MTV's Tabitha Soren who's interviewing her?
21 and looks mature already
5:26 Dave Navarro and Flea helped wrote/arranged You Outta Know? Wow
Yes. They guitars sounds in YOK
no, that's not what she said. The song was already recorded and they just came in and added some tracks.
They don't wrote You Oughta Know, they colaborate with bass and guitar
I never knew Flea played on 'You Oughta Know'
Тот самый момент ,когда. Как выглядит бог , ещё никто не знал....
Wow.
"What are you gonna be wearing" Really ??
OMG, there is a hair out of place, let me interrupt the interview! Was that her person or an MTV person?
“….and I was also, in an (cough, cough) ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP
Toothy.
She seemed so melancholy and depressed for a 20 year old, it's difficult to watch. I hope that she loosened up somewhat and enjoyed the rest of her youth.
I never like her music...except the video with the versions of her driving in the car...anyway...what a great interview. Articulate and straight forward. I actually was eager to hear her answers.
Stopping the interview over her gorgeous hair :/
Mommy?
Worst interviewer ever wtf was she an intern also I’m in love with Alanis far too late rip f’s pls
Terrible interviewer
