The fact that he heard the songs, and his first thought was, "oh no I really hurt her," rather than, "Oh no she is making me look bad," proves he at least has empathy.
Do you really think that most ppl lack empathy? Why wouldn’t he be empathetic toward their break up? They were in a relationship, most ppl break up with another and they feel badly.
@@allnamesaretakenful I don’t know the nature of their relationship. I know that Alanis Morrisette wrote a song about a previous relationship she had with a man in the 90s and we all assume that every lyric from that song is fact. It’s a song, not a deposition. Unless you were a witness to his lack of empathy during their relationship. Do you know Dave Coulier or Alanis? If you do then I apologize.
@@Toadspring the last sentence is “he at least has empathy” and I’m saying that most ppl have that. That it isn’t uncommon and you shouldn’t be surprised that he has empathy toward someone he had a relationship with.
It makes me really happy to 1) hear Dave handle this with empathy and 2) to hear him speak so well of Alanis and to paint a far more accurate picture of her than the media has over the years. Dave made me like them BOTH more. Good vibes!!! ☺️
I've heard decent interviews from both David & Alanis about this question. And for what it's worth, they both come across as rather gracious & forgiving people at this point.
She even pointed out that she was never really angsty. She just wrote that song because she was mad at the time but never meant to have a lifetime of animosity, etc. Interestingly, I think "Your House" was also written about Dave. (The "shake is like a fish" was about a record executive although she might have got the imagery from her time with Dave.)
Well, time does heal in most cases. It makes sense that neither of them have a bad thing to say now, but I’d love to see an interview where they’re asked about it right after the song came out… 😜
I don't know if it's common, especially today. But, there's certainly a point with many people who look back on their first true HURT, and are able with the big assist of time to see that much of it was NOT malicious, no matter how much so it felt many years ago. Maybe we were young and there was some "games" involved. But, I no longer feel they wished me to hurt the way I did. For me, it was a simple matter of it was the wrong TIME. And I hadn't had the chance to become what I needed to be for that to work. And 20 years? Totally worth the wait. Sometimes it takes time to show how REAL something truly is.
He could have handled this differently but instead he understood that he hurt her and he has no bitterness toward her. I have newfound respect for him now.
@@Bonzi_Buddy you can say pretty much the same, apparently, about every person Taylor Swift has ever dated. Won't be long before she makes a song about Travis Kelce.
Why? He still doesn't get or really care why or how he hurt her......of course he's not bitter, he didn't care lol but yeah, I guess that's better than being salty.
As a former Detroiter, I used to hear Dave on the morning radio shows all the time, as he was a local comedian, way before he got the Full House gig and was just as gracious, humble and funny then as he is in this interview. He deserves way more success than he got. He makes me proud to come from the Motor City.
@@cd3949 I mean, half the album tracks were number 1 smash hits. It won five Grammys, including Album of the Year, and sold 33 million copies worldwide. What's your criteria look like?
I was hooked on it back in the 90s, I had a beefy audio setup and used to play Jagged little pill quite loud. Production quality of that album is also very high.
I feel like Alanis and Dave are both genuinely good people that happened to get famous for a little while in the 90s out of mostly happenstance but also due to being genuinely talented individuals who happened to find just the right gig for them and for the time they were in. Then, they went off and mostly just lived their lives, still communicating with their fans but mostly just kept to themselves. The fact that they were together and then broke up but then reconnected shows how much character they have. Sure they both have done things that they aren't proud of but who hasn't? Nobody is perfect, but they're just good people, to me at least.
I really respect her more as an artist because of how he's speaking about her. She's able to keep her professional life and personal life together but separate and she let him talk about the relationship however he wanted while being a good person the while time. She tore him to shreds in that song and he's still being a nice guy about it too, even realizing he hurt her. It kind of sounds like he didn't know how much she liked him but he had ought to I guess, lol. I like him more for this interview too, I wish all celebrities were like this. Respectful while giving us all the tea. 😂
Ive heard him tell the story about his sister before which back then he told it as an example of how he was on good terms with Alanis. Which at the time I thought, "her relationship with your sister is not about you". Him asking her how she would like him to respond, shows why he was usually quick to change the subject. I love that album and its follow-up. I have been in both sides of their relationship in my personal life and even though I previously was the hurt one who cared too much, I still found myself not seeing when i was dating someone that did for me and caused them more hurt than i ever intended, I also like how he didn't indulge the movie theater story. I agree that I wish more artists would be this open like this. I now want to know where else on the album, he heard aspects of their relationship discussed. I appreciate an artists want to not give away all the details in fear it may make a song less meaningful to others, although when the art comes from real stories, I love hearing what those are.
@@brettmastema7056 this is a very balanced perspective, and I really respect that. I too have been on both sides of the coin here, and I love that they have talked this out later down the line.
@@Hoesmad42047'the bitch he cheated on her with' It's fun to hate women, isn't it. Especially when the woman hasn't done anything wrong. #GoooooooooMisogyny
@@Cuuuuuuurtis true actually thats a great point, that he is rarely referred to as "uncle" but is understood to still fulfill that role. That he was just "joey" to the kids, all of that. What i loved about this show? was showing how you make your family what it is, that he was danny's best friend who came to help him in literally the worst moment in his life, stuck around after realizing the reality of the situation, and then multiple seasons later, that love can transcend all when those you care about need help regardless of who they are or if you're actually related or not.
This song came out 2 weeks after I found out the love of my life was engaged, to the girl that was introduced to me as "just a friend". 4 years with me, and only 4 months with her, and he was ready to marry. When I found out he was engaged, it literally brought me to my knees. I was at a friend's house, when I first heard it, as the radio station premiered it. It was like a punch in the gut. Before this song, there weren't any hurt and angry breakup songs by women. There were hurt songs, sad songs, it just didn't work out kind of songs, I'll always love you songs, maybe we can fix this songs. But nothing like this. This song gave me permission to be angry, rather than just devastated. Nearly 3 decades later and I'm still not over him.
This song came out when I was a sophomore or junior in high school - the perfect angst teenage break-up song. I’m curious though - is he still married to her?
@@katiejon17 I was 23. 3 years later they finalized their divorced. He eventually remarried, and had 2 sons. He died, a decade ago, of pancreatic cancer. I didn't find out about the divorce and second wife until he was dead. The first night I finally let my friends drag me out to try to have fun was about a year after he ended it. Happened to run into 2 of his friends, who lived on the other side of the country, so I was shocked to see them. Hugs all around. It was good to see them. Until I asked why they were home and they had to tell me they had just come from his wedding. That was a bad, bad night. I never spoke to him again, and shortly thereafter moved 10 states away just to get away from everything. Cut all ties with my entire friend group to avoid having to hear about him. We had been the anchor couple. All of his friends and all of my friends started hanging out together, several of them started dating. When he ended it, it was like a bomb went off for the whole group. One of my friends said, "If you two couldn't make it, what hope do the rest of us have?" One of his friends confronted him and told him he was making the biggest mistake of his life. This whole damn album just reminds me of him. This song because of it's message, and the hidden track, particularly, because she knows she's been replaced and she's grieving. None of it matters anymore to anyone but me.
@@EikottXD Maybe. Or maybe I was bad at communicating, and didn't trust myself (or him) enough, when he asked me what I was feeling, and what I wanted for our future. Maybe i was messed up from a prior relationship, where speaking my mind, and saying something that ex didn't like, was met with anger, hostility, threats and disgust. Maybe that teenage love, when I was in high school, and he was 9 years older than me, was unhealthy. Maybe that man cheated on me with one of my best friends, and no one told me for a year. Maybe I was broken before I ever met the man who "chose the other girl."
Alanis is underrated to this day. Plays her own instruments, writes her own original music and evolved over a few albums, had great success to start but never did the same thing again and again. She just only did what mattered to her and is a great Canadian and person.
It’s never been confirmed that that song was about him. It’s just rumors that that song was about him… Alanis Morissette has specifically said in an interview that she’ll never reveal who that song is actually about
@@nsasupporter7557this interview kind of confirms it, don’t you think? If it weren’t about him, I’m pretty sure that’s the first thing Dave would have said here. But he clearly knows.
Wow. Props to Dave Coulier. The guy took it with maturity and grace. Kinda rate in Hollywood with people so obsessed with how “THEY look” in a situation like this.
Umm no. Thank Alanis for being such a great artist to be able to channel feelings into something so strong and powerful. Situations like theirs happen all the time so Dave is really not part of the album other than being involved in those experiences. Every artist writes about something, so who cares if the subject is Dave or a fire hydrant. The "thanks" is solely to Alanis for her talent.
The song reminds me of Carley Simon’s You’re So Vain where you wonder who it’s about and when you find out, you’re surprised. I wouldn’t have guessed Dave was like that at the time.
I've never heard someone get called a liar, a cheater, a scumbag, and everything in between in one of the most famous songs ever written only to describe his ex calling him all that as "really sweet and kind" years later... wow.. Either Uncle Joey is the nicest guy on earth or he's been in decades of therapy haha
Yeah, if he had been a plumber, there never would have been a song... I think she got burned more by dating a person at the height of their fame than by Dave
@Imac7065 she was also 18 years old to his 33.. she was a kid dating a successful adult.. maybe that's why she felt so much rage when he left her. Whatever, it's a killer song on a killer album which launched her career so good for her
The fact that she and him could just bury the hatchet and be ADULT about it shows that they grew as human beings. Dave doesn't strike me as someone who would hold a grudge OR be ashamed to admit AND apologize if he did something hurtful to someone. I'm glad they could be grown folks about that whole thing.
Dave: “Why do you assume that that song she did is about me?!?” Narrator (who happens to be Bob Saggat) : “Well, you ought to know” in a dead pan manner Classic lol gold
Breakups suck. Even breakups between two good humans suck. Alanis gave us a great outlet for all those nasty feelings we feel when we leave a relationship.
I love how he's perfectly fine with this story, so much so that he did a gag on How I Met Your Mother about it. Robin was a Canadian pop star who did an "Alanis type song" about a Canadian star and they cut to Dave Coulier and he says, "Why does everyone always think it's about me?"
I love this song and it’s even better knowing it’s about Joey from my childhood show haha. The way he speaks highly of her instead of just painting her as “angry” or “crazy” says a lot too. Good job dude.
Given there was the show Full House, and Dave and Alanis probably dated around that time, and where this song was probably made at around that time, I find it inspirational that not all women just liked John Stamos. This chic Alanis really had a thing for Dave Coulier.
@@Steveman27 I don't think most people in Hollywood go by monogamy, they seem to hit each other up and pass each other around. It's safe to say she just didn't want that.
@@sirderp4925 Polygamy, or whatever anyone might want to call it, where they experience and enjoy sexual activity and sex with more than one member of the opposite sex, can be a good thing, and is generally something that everyone should do in their life where they do it with at least two of them, while of course being careful and responsible where they practice safe sex. If someone's an older virgin, like at the age of 30 for example, it would be especially justified for them to do it and enjoy it, given how terribly long they've missed out on it compared to someone in their late teens, and not to mention someone whose 30 would be more likely to know the importance of safe sex than someone whose only 19.
I'm in a band w a female vocalist and we do this song. I have several nicknames for it; "bitter woman" or "hell hath no fury" song, LOL. It's an easy song to play on guitar but has an incredibley cool groove and vibe to it. It's one of my fav's to play...
@@sabrinatiffany45 Almost all the songs on "So-Called Chaos." Out Is Through (them arguing and her realizing they have to face the problems head on), Doth I Protest Too Much (her pretending she doesn't get jealous when he admires other women), Knees of my Bees (an homage to him), Not All Me (her fighting with him but pointing out he's to blame for a lot of their problems), Spineless (about how she doesn't want to lose her independence 'cause she's in a relationship with a guy she really likes), Everything (about how they fight but how he also realizes she's great).
I think that any man who dates Alanis Morrisette is very brave knowing that she might write songs about him if it doesn’t work out! Ditto for any man who dates Taylor Swift!
He respects her Dave has class most guys in his position would have bashed her and to top it off they both were young he speaks good about her that's a real man
Oh, no I think I really hurt this girl... Oh, no how much is my really hurting her going to cost me? And, Coulier, don't pretend like you didn't know how much you hurt her. After hearing the songs on Jagged Little Pill anyone would know how hurt she was. We were all on the outside looking in, but you were there, you caused it and it wasn't necessary for you, uniquely, to have not known until hearing the album.
Inspiration for two of her best songs, in my book. "Hands Clean" is the more impactful version of the relationship. It's a haunting, peppy, hypnotic song. What part of our history is reinvented and under rug swept?
It’s not about him or anyone in particular. She has stated that in an interview … can’t recall who interviewed her but I think Pink was in the show too. No just looked it up it was Julia Styles, but also she has said it on Howard Stern show.
And too his credit, he asked her what she wanted him to say if asked. Because for a long time - she refused to say who she wrote the song about because as she said on the Stern show "I didn't right it to reciminate him" (and in that same Stern show - they implied that Stamos was the one that told them) But now that Alannis basically told Dave that she did not mind him talking about it, so he could admit publicly all that fan-hate had the right target.
People need to understand there are definitely 2 sides to every story. And this is entertainment. With that being said, I'm sure some of what Alanis put in her songs are true.
@@danman6669again, certainly there were things she did in the relationship as well, he’s definitely not being defensive so it stands to reason that he was reasonable while in the relationship
The hole in the popcorn box trick from Diner w Mickey Rourke (1982) great movie and made stars of Guttenberg, Daly, Rourke, Bursten and Daniel Stern aka the Wet Bandit from Home Alone. Bacon was in it too but already known from Animal House.
The songs were Alanis's deep inner thoughts. We all have them. Only people who don't have those emotional inner thoughts, or are surprised by them, would be upset by the songs.
Wait! He finally owned up to that song being about him?! After all these years! Dave seems like a cool guy, and I'm sure that romance was when they were a lot younger, I mean how old is that album now? I love Alanis, Dave coulier is hilarious, I wish them both the best!
The fact that he heard the songs, and his first thought was, "oh no I really hurt her," rather than, "Oh no she is making me look bad," proves he at least has empathy.
Do you really think that most ppl lack empathy? Why wouldn’t he be empathetic toward their break up? They were in a relationship, most ppl break up with another and they feel badly.

I couldnt help but note that right after Full House ended she released that song.
The song reminds me of Carley Simon’s You’re So Vain where you wonder who it’s about and when you find out, you’re surprised. I wouldn’t have guessed Dave was like that at the time.
I think that song's about Warren Beatty.
Love how he knocks the question off about the theater 🫡🫡
One of the best albums start to finish in music history.

I've never heard someone get called a liar, a cheater, a scumbag, and everything in between in one of the most famous songs ever written only to describe his ex calling him all that as "really sweet and kind" years later... wow.. Either Uncle Joey is the nicest guy on earth or he's been in decades of therapy haha
Yeah, if he had been a plumber, there never would have been a song... I think she got burned more by dating a person at the height of their fame than by Dave
@@bluehorseshoe444 she got famous because of that song.. not before
@@Imac7065 he was already famous when they were dating
@@bluehorseshoe444 she was a singer with mid level success before jagged little pill
@Imac7065 she was also 18 years old to his 33.. she was a kid dating a successful adult.. maybe that's why she felt so much rage when he left her.
Whatever, it's a killer song on a killer album which launched her career so good for her
The fact that she and him could just bury the hatchet and be ADULT about it shows that they grew as human beings. Dave doesn't strike me as someone who would hold a grudge OR be ashamed to admit AND apologize if he did something hurtful to someone. I'm glad they could be grown folks about that whole thing.
Wish the angry Alanis would make another record. Not really becuaee I want her to be happy. But man, sometimes the best material comes out of pain
Only when the author has authentic talent!!!🏆
Dude dude dude!!! What an awesome interview. The popcorn reference is gold baby!! Who didn’t try the popcorn trick!! 10 digity points for Dave!!
I’ve never tried the popcorn trick, that’s super gross
I love that they teased about it on HIMYM, and Coulier was totally in on the joke. #RobinSparkles 🇨🇦❤️
Dave: “Why do you assume that that song she did is about me?!?”
Narrator (who happens to be Bob Saggat) : “Well, you ought to know” in a dead pan manner
Classic lol gold
Breakups suck. Even breakups between two good humans suck. Alanis gave us a great outlet for all those nasty feelings we feel when we leave a relationship.
I love how he's perfectly fine with this story, so much so that he did a gag on How I Met Your Mother about it.
Robin was a Canadian pop star who did an "Alanis type song" about a Canadian star and they cut to Dave Coulier and he says, "Why does everyone always think it's about me?"
Two of my favorite Canadians. I wish they were still together.
What a nice Canadian handling this very politely 😂
Man, that's a pretty stand up thing to actually understand the song *AND* take the blame.
Incredible.
Never knew all that Jagged Little Pill-stuff was about this guy!
I love this song and it’s even better knowing it’s about Joey from my childhood show haha. The way he speaks highly of her instead of just painting her as “angry” or “crazy” says a lot too. Good job dude.
"...that popcorn trick" LoL
Aww that was sweet of him to say that he hurt her. I like Dave a lot!
Even cheaters can realize they hurt someone I guess
Yes he could deny the obvious - but that would make him look twice as stupid...and mean.
That is the sweetest thing that a guy could do is to admit that he hurt her 😆
I am pretty sure at the point that she became more famous than him (with that album), he had no choice but to concede.
Thank you Dave cause you made her a superstar and bestselling artist worldwide
Honestly to have this kind of album made in honor of me, even if it was negative, would be an honor.
Given there was the show Full House, and Dave and Alanis probably dated around that time, and where this song was probably made at around that time, I find it inspirational that not all women just liked John Stamos. This chic Alanis really had a thing for Dave Coulier.
Yeah, and he cheated on her
@@Hoesmad42047 Why? Also, I stand by what I said that she was probably a good catch.
@@Steveman27 I don't think most people in Hollywood go by monogamy, they seem to hit each other up and pass each other around. It's safe to say she just didn't want that.
@@sirderp4925 Polygamy, or whatever anyone might want to call it, where they experience and enjoy sexual activity and sex with more than one member of the opposite sex, can be a good thing, and is generally something that everyone should do in their life where they do it with at least two of them, while of course being careful and responsible where they practice safe sex. If someone's an older virgin, like at the age of 30 for example, it would be especially justified for them to do it and enjoy it, given how terribly long they've missed out on it compared to someone in their late teens, and not to mention someone whose 30 would be more likely to know the importance of safe sex than someone whose only 19.
@@Steveman27 you didn’t say anything about her being a “good catch” in your original post.
She went down on you in a theater, and you broke her heart.
Blowjobs don't last forever
I'm in a band w a female vocalist and we do this song. I have several nicknames for it; "bitter woman" or "hell hath no fury" song, LOL. It's an easy song to play on guitar but has an incredibley cool groove and vibe to it. It's one of my fav's to play...
Let's not forget Alanis also wrote songs about Ryan Reynolds. Dave was her "You're So Vain" song.
Which songs were about Ryan Reynolds
@@sabrinatiffany45 Almost all the songs on "So-Called Chaos." Out Is Through (them arguing and her realizing they have to face the problems head on), Doth I Protest Too Much (her pretending she doesn't get jealous when he admires other women), Knees of my Bees (an homage to him), Not All Me (her fighting with him but pointing out he's to blame for a lot of their problems), Spineless (about how she doesn't want to lose her independence 'cause she's in a relationship with a guy she really likes), Everything (about how they fight but how he also realizes she's great).
@@johnsmi213 I do remember the media coverage when Ryan cheated on her and they broke up. I’m gonna listen to those songs, thanks!
I think that any man who dates Alanis Morrisette is very brave knowing that she might write songs about him if it doesn’t work out! Ditto for any man who dates Taylor Swift!
What an awesome response - this guy is a class act!
He handled it in a classy way.
Relationships are hard and complicated. Very personal for the people involved. Art spawned from this one. Nothing wrong with that.
Alannis Morissette going down on Dave Coulier in a movie theater is the only reason I'm jealous of him
He’s being a nice guy about it and the 2 of them seem to seem to have made peace.
I'm glad he is empathic here, but how was he so clueless abt how much he hurt her??
He respects her Dave has class most guys in his position would have bashed her and to top it off they both were young he speaks good about her that's a real man
He looks GREAT for 65!
It takes a real man to admit he wronged an ex, especially someone who is a good person. It is nice that they can laugh about it now.
Hes looking amazing
Dave Coulier lookin good. Happy for him and his family.
What a gentleman, and Alanis is awesome.
Wow that's crazy, but based on her lyrics she does seem very real and genuine. Great to hear what she did for his sister.
You Oughta Know is like a text message you receive from an angry ex but the whole world gets to read.
She said he oughta know and he did in fact know.
Oh, no I think I really hurt this girl...
Oh, no how much is my really hurting her going to cost me?
And, Coulier, don't pretend like you didn't know how much you hurt her. After hearing the songs on Jagged Little Pill anyone would know how hurt she was. We were all on the outside looking in, but you were there, you caused it and it wasn't necessary for you, uniquely, to have not known until hearing the album.
Calm down, hipster.
I had no clue that Right Through You was about Dave Coulier also until he mentioned the handshake. Wow.
Bless you Jim for that question at the end of the clip.... fucking classic because I was thinking the same thing.
what a great story between Dave Coulier and a Canadian music icon, Alanis (Morissette)...
There was a moment in time where this was the only song I'd ever heard of hers and knew who it was about. And it was just like, "is that Flea?" .
Man aged kinda nice😂 good for him
Very interesting.... and heartfelt about his sister....
Norton! Never disappoints!
Great interview today guys
I know younger folks won't understand. But he just took personal responsibility for his actions.
Inspiration for two of her best songs, in my book. "Hands Clean" is the more impactful version of the relationship. It's a haunting, peppy, hypnotic song.
What part of our history is reinvented and under rug swept?
was Hands Clean about him as well? That's the one people really need to be talking about.
It probably isn't, that one is supposedly about someone who was involved in her musical career
Dave looking suave af.
GREAT answer!!! 🖤
I knew Jimmy was going to ask about the theater thing lmfao.
He seems like a truly decent guy, and still looks great. I'm sorry he hurt her, and I also love that song.
Wow I had no idea....after all these years.
I had no idea that the song was about it. Kinda takes the edge off? Love the popcorn trick reference
Alanis playing “You ought to know” to his dying sister is a baller move
In several different forms, Dave was an integral part of my life for many years. Still love the dude. 💜
It’s not about him or anyone in particular. She has stated that in an interview … can’t recall who interviewed her but I think Pink was in the show too. No just looked it up it was Julia Styles, but also she has said it on Howard Stern show.
It's about him. Did you watch the interview? Alanis and him met up years alter and ever discussed it. Try watching the video next time.
And too his credit, he asked her what she wanted him to say if asked.
Because for a long time - she refused to say who she wrote the song about because as she said on the Stern show "I didn't right it to reciminate him" (and in that same Stern show - they implied that Stamos was the one that told them)
But now that Alannis basically told Dave that she did not mind him talking about it, so he could admit publicly all that fan-hate had the right target.
When he heard it was he like,” cut, it, out.”
Dave's an upstanding dude!
Hes a real gentleman
She is a frickin' goddess...so sorry about your diagnosis
People need to understand there are definitely 2 sides to every story. And this is entertainment. With that being said, I'm sure some of what Alanis put in her songs are true.
Loose use of the word "entertainment"....
Catharsis is more accurate
Yeah, Dave admitted it. He realized the album was about him, since much of what she sang about was true regarding him.
@@danman6669again, certainly there were things she did in the relationship as well, he’s definitely not being defensive so it stands to reason that he was reasonable while in the relationship
That's because the expectation of the relationship didn't match the reality of the relationship
Killer final question lmaoo
The hole in the popcorn box trick from Diner w Mickey Rourke (1982) great movie and made stars of Guttenberg, Daly, Rourke, Bursten and Daniel Stern aka the Wet Bandit from Home Alone. Bacon was in it too but already known from Animal House.
The songs were Alanis's deep inner thoughts. We all have them. Only people who don't have those emotional inner thoughts, or are surprised by them, would be upset by the songs.
Dave starts telling this beautiful story and these guys are like “yeah but the movie theater!” Gross.
Gross?
Agreed.
Isn't she the one who put it out there in the first place?
Do you not know who Jim Norton is?
I mean it is the most famous lyric in the song.
The wikipedia page says in the documentary about the album, that Alanis says it's NOT about him.. so... ok..
Wait! He finally owned up to that song being about him?! After all these years! Dave seems like a cool guy, and I'm sure that romance was when they were a lot younger, I mean how old is that album now? I love Alanis, Dave coulier is hilarious, I wish them both the best!
I really feel like knowing what movie it was would enrich my life.
