Oh my God . . . JLP is such a great fucking album. Oh my God. How old was I in 1996? 6? No 5. My Mom listened/s to stuff like that. I pretty much grew up around Alanis, Third Eye Blind, Led Zeppelin, and Queen. I remember being on the bus, going to kindergarten one day, and these old (probably third graders, but hey - ten-year-olds are old as hell when you're five) girls started singing the beginning of "Ironic" and I remember thinking, "Hey. I know that song."
Yeah, but I can't believe no one's mentioned Hand in my Pocket or You Learn or Forgiven (which is one of my favourite Alanis songs of all time).
