And I loved Alanis in Dogma... though, personally, I think Jason Lee (My Name Is Earl) stole the movie. I've always thought Jagged was one of the best albums ever put out, period. She got a lot of grief in this country because of her bizarre pop princess background, as if artists shouldn't be allowed to grow and change, and go down on their boyfriends in a theatre. I also thought it was incredibly brave to change gears after Jagged as well... that "Thank You India" video was very cool. There is something <strong>aboot</strong> this country and chick rockers... Carole Pope (Rough Trade), Alanis, Bif Naked, Peaches, Avril... kind of. I like your Gloria Gaynor analogy.

I get the guitar out in a pub. Someone might even ask for Alanis and I'm like hmmm" okay? do you want the nice one or the kiss-ass-bitch one?" They ALWAYS want the kick ass bitch one. It came out just after I got divorced. It was my therapy, my generation's Gloria Gaynor singing "I will Survive" "Everytime I scratch my nails down someone elses back I hope you feel it." Fantastic, marvellous, singing into your hairbrush chick rock. And don't even get me started gushing about great a choice she was her role in Dogma. x I do a mean cover of Alanis stuff.
