I don't think it's even possible to sue someone over something as ambiguous as "style copying", besides Alanis would never. It was just pre-social media tall tales, like the "Marilyn Manson removed his ribs" type of thing. Back to OP, I love Alanis, she's one of my favorite lyricist of all time. And I don't think she's entirely forgotten, just not as prevalescent on the GP's mind given how her career took a less comercial route than many other female 90's acts.

Teal Ambition 47,805 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Definitely an icon She didn't live that far from me before she became famous and moved! ▌│█║▌║▌║ before I am Canadian, I am Chromatican ║▌║▌║█│▌ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas P 18,479 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 One of the best songwriters ever. She represents my hometown. I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishinmyhair 521 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Jagged Little Pill is my #2 album of all time, just under BTW. After I discovered the beautiful masterpiece of an album that is JLP, I started listening to her other albums, and honestly I'm not surprised that she's forgotten about now... Her second album is good but took awhile for me to like it.. and the rest of her albums are.......... yeah... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot about how similar Shakira was to her before she broke into the US. I doubt there was any beef tho. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
imnotyourbabe10 6,088 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 All this Alanis love on GGD has me weak in the knees Some suggestions for anyone new to Alanis: Of course, all of Jagged Little Pill...but "Under Rug Swept" and "So-Called Chaos" have some real gems (Perfect Illusions, Hands Clean, Knees of My Bees, Out is Through). Be sure to check out "Flavors of Entanglement" for a mid-2000's pop/dance/rock rad record. And then her "havoc and bright lights" for a more solace-seeking album. Now if only we could rekindle the Lilith Fair love of the late 90's (Sarah McLachlan, Dido, Jewel, Alanis, Sheryl Crow, India.Arie, Melissa Etheridge, Liz Phair). Happy to keep waiting for LG6 as long as the singer/songwriter ladies quench our thirst Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
