Alanis Morissette - Under Rug Swept/Feast On Scraps sync listen (Sunday 7 March, 6PM)

[Beverley]

"You cringe at the thought of living under
The same roof as me God and everything"

Another line from Ms @Beverley to Mr @Beverley

WHO is MISTER?

Theres only Ms and Mrs in here!

 

[RJN]

3. Sorry 2 Myself

 

[Iguana]

I've always been quite taken by the line "For trying to fit a rectangle into a hole"

 

[Iguana]

No-one's beeen crueler than I've been to me.

 

[RJN]

For letting you decide if I indeed was desirable
For my self-love being so embarrassingly conditional
And for denying myself to somehow make us compatible
And for trying to fit a rectangle into a hole
To whom do I owe the biggest apology?
No one's been crueler than I've been to me

OMG

 

[Beverley]

I've always been quite taken by the line "For trying to fit a rectangle into a hole"

Hard relate?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Hi @ZenGiraffe

Que?

 

[Iguana]

For letting you decide if I indeed was desirable
For my self-love being so embarrassingly conditional
And for denying myself to somehow make us compatible
And for trying to fit a rectangle into a hole
To whom do I owe the biggest apology?
No one's been crueler than I've been to me

OMG

Hard relate?

 

[Iguana]

Come on, the lyrics are FAR too good for @ZenGiraffe to like any of this

 

[Beverley]

Que?

Saw you in the thread babs

 

[Iguana]

For ignoring you, my highest voices
For smiling when my strife was all too obviouis
For being so disassociated fom my body
And for not letting go when that would have been the kindest thing

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Saw you in the thread babs

Ahh. Sorry, wrong turn.

 

[RJN]

Hard relate?

Actually not really for once! It's just a great lyric I think

 

[vespertine]

And to THINK my therapist would prescribe MEDITATION when she should have prescribed THIS SONG.

 

[RJN]

Actually not really for once! It's just a great lyric I think

That was a lie! It is relatable

 

[Beverley]

YAY IT'S SISTER BLISTER TIME

 

[RJN]

4. Sister Blister

 

[Iguana]

SISTER BLISTER

This is APPARENTLY about COURTNEY LOVE

 

[Beverley]

You
And
Me

We're cut from the same cloth

 

[Iguana]

This was, I believe, the last song written in these sessions.

 

[Beverley]

SISTER BLISTER

This is APPARENTLY about COURTNEY LOVE

GAG!

 

[RJN]

SISTER BLISTER

This is APPARENTLY about COURTNEY LOVE

God are there any songs in the world that AREN'T about Courtney Love?

 

[Iguana]

"But you and me and on this pendulum together"

An AMAZING line!

 

[jivafox]

God are there any songs in the world that AREN'T about Courtney Love?

"Heart Shaped Box"

Which is about her vagina.

 

[Beverley]

You and me estranged from the mother
You and me have felt impotent in our skin
You and me have taken it out on each other
You and me disloyal to the feminine

Lyrically somrthing ewse.

 

[RJN]

"Heart Shaped Box"

Which is about her vagina.

Actually?

 

[Beverley]

Oh this makes me wanna go OUUUUUTTTT WAAAAAAH!

 

[Iguana]

I love that it's a song about the need to break into the 'boy's club' and the men have the women competing for that spot, to impress them. Ugh SO GOOD

 

[GNL]

SISTER BLISTER

This is APPARENTLY about COURTNEY LOVE

WHAT ISN'T?

 

[jivafox]

This song is about me and my Moopy pals not voting for each other in ASFM.

 

[jivafox]

LOVE this final minute

 

[Beverley]

This song is about me and my Moopy pals not voting for each other in ASFM.

 

[Iguana]

ORGASMIC ending....leading into Offer OMG

 

[Iguana]

Offer was featured in a Brazillian soap opera and became a massive hit in Brazil!!

 

[Beverley]

That was fucking incredible

 

[RJN]

5. Offer

 

[RJN]

A song becoming a huge hit in Brazil is the new being about Courtney Love

 

[Tisch]

Yeah it's a bit ploddy but I love Offer so much. Another one about Alanis being so selfless she forgets to take care of herself. What a saviour that woman is. :emoji_pray:

 

[Iguana]

It's a sweet song - the pressure of feeling you need to be good and help others, but it can be emotionally draining always being there for others when you don't necessarily feel great about yourself (and in Alanis' case, her success)

 

[jivafox]

Yeah it's a bit ploddy but I love Offer so much. Another one about Alanis being so selfless she forgets to take care of herself. What a saviour that woman is. :emoji_pray:

AND on top of being a workaholic who has worked since single digits!!
