    This is best breakup song of all time, because it really reflects how a lot of people actually feel when their heart is broken. Most songs just deal with the sadness of a relationship ending, but Alanis isn't sad, she's fucking furious. How could someone she loved and thought loved her do this to her?? She wants them to understand how angry and betrayed she feels, and it's awesome

      Well, I wouldn't say it was the "first" time. Carly Simon "You're So Vain" came long before - minus the anger I suppose but definitely taking swipes at the subject of the song while avoiding being sad and depressing. Not to take anything away from Alannis, of course, her approach can definitely be considered a first and she definitely changed the dynamic for female artists at this point.

      Tho it isn't technically a break up song as much as it is a "learn your place, boy" type of song - but it certainly falls in the same vein of songs of women standing up to the men.

    Actually took me a while to warm up to her, cause just like you said,
    the lyrics are a bit shocking...especially when this came out. But the
    story in the song really stuck with me and after hearing the whole album
    Jagged Little Pill, I realized there was some deep talent going on with
    this lady. Really respect the guts that it took to trust herself and
    not just emulate what was most popular in mainstream female music
    artists at the time.

    Alanis is a bizarre enigma. Almost every album was a rage filled, vengeful compilation of bile and venom like this... except there were always one or two on each CD that were just so optimistic, fluffy and cheerful, like 'Head over Feet' or 'One Hand in My Pocket.'

    No holds barred elemental FURY. Awesome song. I loved Rob's expression at several points in the video when he was like "Whoa, did she really just say that?", and yup. In a lot of other songs, it might not work, but given the raw emotional wound this song represents, it almost Requires that the lyrics do, in fact, go there.

    I'm still crying and scream singing this EVERY time it comes on right now. I've loved this since I was 15, when it was released, and it has unfortunately come full circle and completely applies to my F'd up divorce that is currently tearing my family apart. Needless to say, I can relate.
    Additionally, I don't feel that Alanis's message necessarily applies to only women here, just as I feel about music in general. Some lyrics I take literally, and others metaphorically, but the ENTIRE emotion is present and the circumstances described are ironic and coincidentally similar.
    (Insert Schwarzenegger "Junior" joke.)
    I just subbed last night because both of you are a pleasure to watch and your energy is light hearted and kind, especially toward each other. It's difficult to find time to smile right now, so I appreciate the thoughtfulness and respect that you guys are showing to your audience, and again, each other. Emotionally intelligent and insightful reviews. And y'all are just cute as a button!

      My first wife did a cheater behind my back and I did the divorce myself. I was very bitter for many years after but when she apologized over 40 years later (by an unexpected phone call one day), I said, "It's okay. We both made mistakes" and "I'll forgive you if you'll forgive me". But "let's not get together for coffee to rehash the past".
      Great way to finish off the old broken relationship and my wonderful present wife of 42 years has been someone I am thankful for every day of my life. I decided to LIVE LONG and LIVE WELL after the divorce and it worked out well. Forgive and forget the bad parts of your past and you'll be able to move on... and avoid speaking their name whenever possible as the sooner you (pretend to) forget them, the better.
      BTW, my ex decided to have a child soon after the split and it was so that she could have someone in her life that would love her to the end of her life. And that's when she had a special needs child that lives with her today. Karma can be brutal but... she got what she wished for.

    I still remember hearing this song for the first time on the radio driving down the street in Seattle and, as soon as it was over, I said out loud to myself, 'Oh, that girl is gonna be a star.'. One of the rawest and most honest breakup songs ever, and one of the absolute best debut singles of all time, as well.

      Yes, this. Under Rug Swept was a letdown in the public eye, but only because Jagged Little Pill and Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie were so amazing that expectations were extremely high. "21 Things", "Hands Unclean", "Precious Illusions", and "You Owe Me Nothing In Return" are the ones that make my all-albums Alanis playlist. "Hands Unclean" has a lot of personal relevance to me, for reasons that are made clear by listening to the song.
