you don't hear that word often anymore... "smitten". But sometimes it's the right word for the right instance... and this is one of those times :P Brad & Lex are a fun couple who balance each other out pretty well it seems... at least on reaction vids. I can't blame Brad for being smitten with Alanis. I have always been smitten with her too.
She's awesome, I've seen her live 4 times. She plays guitar, piano, harmonica, and she played drums for one of her songs too ! Like I said, She's awesome.
idk what it is...maybe a Canadian thing, but Avril can play all these instruments as well...I think Canada just has a better expectation of their artists than here in america. they expect them to be actual musicians. they britneys and all the other poppers at that time only sang...no musical ability in other places...one of the reasons they got more respect from me.

The angst brought me there and keeps me here. I thought I was a spell caster when I was a kid and I got Uninvited as the secret song. I thought she was in my room. I thought I had powers. Maybe
I hadn't listened to her in many years. A bit older now, wiser, and more open to talent without care of genre has given me a newfound respect for her that I don't think I'd have, if not for you getting me to listen to her again
That’s great to hear. I’ve always listened to multiple genres. But if it wasn’t for seeing my first YT Tom Macdonald reaction, I wouldn’t have a clue or “want” to hear from some random white hip hop artist either lol.
Make the next song you guys play by her be “All I Really Want”. It has over the top vocals, excellent lyrics, has a great beat, -- A total banger!! It’s was the first song that I listened to by Alanis on an Alternative radio station as I was driving to work at 11:00 pm getting ready to work the graveyard shift, that propelled me to immediately by her album. They started playing it before I ever heard “You Outta Know”. I was hooked from the start!!! 😎
Alanis is one of the biggest stars of the '90s and '00s. Plenty of great videos and songs from her. Yes, she plays harmonica and guitar and is an actress, too. Brad gushes on Alanis Morrisette just as much as Lex gushes on Robert Plant/Led Zeppelin doing hard blues rock covers on old blues songs. lol. Great artists, though.
So many Alanis Morissette songs played on the radio when I was younger, so hearing them now is so nostalgic. Many of these I haven't heard in 20+ years, yet used to be played over and over again. My mom had whatever station played them constantly while I was in backseat of the car lol. In this song I always thought she was saying "You dont have to run me over" lol
Fun fact: in the part she says "best friends with benefits" is actually the first time that this term was ever used (as far as we can be aware of), so in a way you can pretty much say that Alanis is kind of responsible for spreading this expression. Lovely reaction as usual, I recommend you guys react to All I Really Want by her, vocally it's one of her most incredible and peculiar songs, and the lyrics are awesome. Hands Clean is also a highlight because of its amazing lyrics too.
Brad: "The vocals are still good.. that's the rules!" 😂 Love it.. and he's right!!! 😉 BTW.... the way she pronounces her words in singing.. is usually referred to as a "stylistic" choice. She's so authentically Alanis and stands completely alone in her sound .. and you can't really compare her to anyone else. Anyway... her music has stood the test of time... and I think always will. Thanks you too... I love your reactions and your channel!! 🥰
She created the expression: The origin of the term "friends with benefits" is difficult to trace, although it is regularly used and practiced in today's society. The earliest known use of the term is documented in Alanis Morissette's song Head Over Feet when she says, "you're my best friend, best friend with benefits"
Im curious, what his facial expresion will be about Real World video - Alanis as a teenager in a cage with a large python snake. 😀 Halo 911, I think my housband has a heart attack ;-)
YES LEX🤘 That's exactly how I started learning songs, only I didn't have internet or YOU TUBE to learn how to play, if I was lucky I could afford a tab/ chord book otherwise it's listening to a song a million times till I figure it out. You have an advantage I didn't have back in the 90s but that's a good thing. You guys have so many different styles of music to choose from , it's gonna make you both more diverse as artists and you'll be able to play all styles of music. 🤘Keep Rockin U.2
she has a couple songs from her latest album (2020 i believe) that are worth a look: 'Smiling' and 'Ablaze'. her voice hasn't really changed that much, if at all.
When Alanis was a younger girl, she started her career on a Canadian Television Show called: "You Can't Do That On TV." A comedy skit show where she was very funny and loved. Her fans lost track of her as she was coming into her adult self, and were totally blindsided when she exploded onto the music scene. She was struggling to be taken seriously, but that's what fed her frustration and caused her breakthrough hit, " You Oughta Know" from her album Jagged Little Pill.
You two are straight up awesome. Love watching you guys and I also like this artist, a new artist for me. So, TY for reacting and turning me on to Alanis Morissette. Bought her CD.
She used to be married to Ryan Reynolds. She also used to be on a TV show called "You can't Say That on Television". She also played "God" in the movie Dogma. She also currently has a recurring minor character in the tv show The Great North.
She was really great in the 90’s. You’ll be less impressed with her work after that but I love her and I’m glad you both do too. She still has some gems later on in her career.
This is probably my favorite song of Alanis' Jagged Little Pill album, although it is definitely a close call. Absolute magical and phenomenal album! BTW, search on Head Over Feet acoustic and you will find that she made one....
When I saw her sing ‘That I Would Be Good’ live on MTV Unplugged? Yep totally won me over. I knew she was amazing, but that performance nailed it for me lol Brilliant artist!
Welcome to meeting 237 of Brad's " Alanis Morissette Appreciation Society " Seriously though - it's good to see some music that's finally touched your soul !
omg you have to to listen to her acoustic album it is just out of this world! she has the most incredible voice and it really shows even more in her acoustic album! please listen! So worth it!!!
Damn Lex is amazing as JP said. Cute as a button, such a happy soul, wide eyed and bushy tailed. Lex doesn't make judgements about ppl and accepts them as they are. Wished I had met her when I was young, even if she's out of my League.
I've always loved Atlanta Morissette, you want to listen to an eerie song by her, then you have to give a listen to her song called "Uinvited", which if I remember correctly was based on a true story. She has so many incredible songs, but that's one of my favorites. I think it's so cute that Brad is taken by her, she's a beautiful woman, that has a unique and beautiful voice.
So glad you're sticking with this album - like I said, it's got a number of female anthems for that decade, and I can still score some points with the ladies by playing something from this album on the jukebox down at my local tavern.
BRAD BRAD!! Ear to Ear Smile! She’s Amazing! ( I’m Still waiting on my Favorite “Right through you” )…Brad your smile is so sweet right now like candy! 🍭 🍬 ✌🏻
@Brad & Lex you should react to the hidden track on her album. Look up "Jagged Little Pill Secret Song"....her voice and emotion on it will blow your mind, and it may shed more light on her "You Oughta Know" song.
It's called "Your House (Hidden Track)" ua-cam.com/video/qIwFsYyroJ0/v-deo.html Here's a different version of "Your House" that is on the Jagged Little Pill acoustic album. It has musical accompaniment (piano, guitar, & subdued drums) rather than the original acapella ua-cam.com/video/DNC92H_Zye4/v-deo.html
It's so cute how much Brad loves Alanis, so smitten, and you can't blame him. She's incredible.
That's OK...I'm secretly in love with lex....and I have money 😜...and I live in Florida....🤫

@@anomystpric LOL would have been ok if he stopped at "I'm secretly in love with lex"
Brad is just plain smitten….
Happy he picked an artist of Alanis’ talent…..she is amazing

I hoping to see her in vancouver this summer
She also plays transverse flute👍
Fun fact; Alanis Morissette had a little supporting role in the Kevin Smith movie "Dogma". She played God.
Another fun fact...she was on you can't do that on television as a kid
Also she got Jay and Silent Bob rolls on Degrassi cause of it! lol
it was perfect casting.
She was not played God, she is a real God. - Kevin Smith 😀 She destoyed Ben Affleck's head with her voice in that movie, lol. 😀
@@zokirocker5352 lol
0:41 Brad is personally serenaded and moved by his goddess.
Damn. If you guys are going to do her whole catalog… I’m here for it all! Lol 🤩🥳🤗🤘
Same 🤩😍💗💞
Grammy Album of the year at age 21; she's a gem!
You’re in luck, she did an acoustic version of this entire album. I actually prefer that version. Check it out because it’s incredible.

My son and I saw her yrs ago in concert acoustic in Niagara Falls NY
so do I! her voice now, I would say is so so good so soothing
It’s nice to hear her happy in this song- it’s actually not angsty! Can’t go wrong with Alanis!
Yes, a rare happy llmodern love song but that isn't sappy either.
...she does seem to do plenty of "angsty"
The angst brought me there and keeps me here. I thought I was a spell caster when I was a kid and I got Uninvited as the secret song. I thought she was in my room. I thought I had powers. Maybe

She's pretty talented for a......Canadian >:)
@@yakkodawakko9387 hey!!! We have many 😉🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Brad is like a kid in a candy store grinning ear to ear.
oh, I'm seeing her later this year, she's playing this album in full. Nice.
That sounds like a good time.
@@pleutron fingers crossed, its been postponed about 3 times so that anticipation is building haha
I love that you are going through the whole album. You wont be disappointed.
This is one of my favorite Alanis songs.
Notice the total contrast between Head over feet and You Ought to Know. Here you can tell just how madly in love she is.
Make the next song you guys play by her be “All I Really Want”. It has over the top vocals, excellent lyrics, has a great beat, -- A total banger!! It’s was the first song that I listened to by Alanis on an Alternative radio station as I was driving to work at 11:00 pm getting ready to work the graveyard shift, that propelled me to immediately by her album.

It would not be complete without Alanis Morissette, Brad's new found love, lol.
Yes, Brad is head over feet for her. Hope Lex isn't too jealous, lol
Brad got his smile on again. I wonder why? 😂
I think growing up on 90s pop really spoiled me on the quality of Melody and chord progression that was everywhere all day every day.
Every song on this album is a bop! She's an absolute legend.
The 90s had such empowering women rocking the fuck out!
Brad is all smiles when it's an Alanis song haha
0:37
Alanis Morissette is my favorite artist ever. There’s not a single day that goes by where I don’t listen to at least Hand in my pocket! 💪🏾
When u can listen to a whole album love every song & never get tired of it… that’s music!✌🏻
@Mike, me too, also, the best female songwriter. 🙂
Honestly one of the greatest love songs written
Agree. She's so beautiful and her voice is unmatched
Alanis is one of the biggest stars of the '90s and '00s. Plenty of great videos and songs from her. Yes, she plays harmonica and guitar and is an actress, too.
Brad gushes on Alanis Morrisette just as much as Lex gushes on Robert Plant/Led Zeppelin doing hard blues rock covers on old blues songs. lol. Great artists, though.
Brad, Lex is so jealous of your fascination with Alanis. I can see by the way she reacts to you listening and talking about it. Lol
Right? ...that flat-lined lip...👀😐#dangerWillRobinson 😄💕✨ heehee...Brad's crushin'...😆🥴😏 #hesgotalottosay ...
I think the word you are looking for is "phrasing". Alanis has very unique phrasing.
I was waiting for this one. I knew Brad would love this one.🙂
She owes a lot to Joni Mitchell for her word phrasing and writing style
"All I Really Want" must be next? Alanis uses all her vocal acrobatics in probably her best rock song
Brads lovin on some Allanis ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Im smitten by how smitten they are.
So many Alanis Morissette songs played on the radio when I was younger, so hearing them now is so nostalgic. Many of these I haven't heard in 20+ years, yet used to be played over and over again. My mom had whatever station played them constantly while I was in backseat of the car lol.

Sorry, but Friends with benefits has been used long before Alanis. My parents used the term in the 60's.
@@janster3000 well, how convenient for you, hum?
@@LucasSantos-ef5cg Just correcting you. Not everything you read is the truth. Have a wonderful life🤗
Now you're understanding why this album was a monster album... truly in the category of the best ever, depending on personal taste
Brad: "The vocals are still good.. that's the rules!" 😂 Love it.. and he's right!!! 😉 BTW.... the way she pronounces her words in singing.. is usually referred to as a "stylistic" choice.

The earliest known use of the term is documented in Alanis Morissette's song Head Over Feet when she says, "you're my best friend, best friend with benefits"
That "in spite of me" line is the most self-aware line in a binder full of self-awareness.
Alanis morrisette was THE artist of the 90s
Good no matter what. That's the RULE!!!
This is still the greatest full album from the 90’s. I can’t think of one better full album from the 90’s
alanis morissette - your house (forgive me love) bonus track he gonna love it
There's also a version of this song on her MTV unplugged that kicks ass. Chris Chaney, her bass player at that time, is amazing.
0:37 The one and only Alanis. The way she throws her voice
I love how Brad always starts smiling during her songs. 😊
Im curious, what his facial expresion will be about Real World video - Alanis as a teenager in a cage with a large python snake. 😀 Halo 911, I think my housband has a heart attack ;-)
Lex better watch her man😏
This is my favourite love song, it's quite unique and very thoughtful, it feels personal, if that makes sense.
Keep the Alanis tracks coming, guys :) Also recommend: Tori Amos and Joni Mitchell.
YES LEX🤘 That's exactly how I started learning songs, only I didn't have internet or YOU TUBE to learn how to play, if I was lucky I could afford a tab/ chord book otherwise it's listening to a song a million times till I figure it out.

Well, I think its safe to say we know who Brads "Free Pass" would be! lol
Alannis Is 90's Gold
Brad's smile was too cute
I love you both.
She's got tons of good songs.
Brad is always cheesin when listening to to her.
Brad- i adore you for loving Alanis. You got it, bud. Thank you.......
she has a couple songs from her latest album (2020 i believe) that are worth a look: 'Smiling' and 'Ablaze'. her voice hasn't really changed that much, if at all.
The one on Fallon during lockdown...with her daughter😇
Not sure if it's the same album, but I fell into a damn wormhole when I first heard "Reasons I Drink." Love it.
@@reanimated yup, it's on the same album and it's also a good song.
Brad, my man, now you know what a Siren is! Thank God most women don't know how much power they have, LOL!
You should check out her live stuff which really highlights how great she is. Awesome reactions ✌❤🇨🇦

She used to be married to Ryan Reynolds. She also used to be on a TV show called "You can't Say That on Television". She also played "God" in the movie Dogma.
She also currently has a recurring minor character in the tv show The Great North.
It’s such a beautiful song it’s a pity Lex can’t read while listening
😍🤩 Her voice and Jewels voice 🔥🔥
yall need to hear “that i would be good” live. it’s so good and you can see people emotional in the audience.
Alanis playing God in Kevin Smith’s Dogma just might be the best casting of a movie character ever. She’s perfect 😍
There is an acoustic version of this album! She also did MTV Unplugged, so there’s an album of that too.
This song is absolutely beautiful in its simplicity!!
The magic of music. It can make forget the rules you set for yourself. Just look at Brad lol. It's lovely to see.
It is sort of insane how many hits this album had.
She was really great in the 90’s. You’ll be less impressed with her work after that but I love her and I’m glad you both do too. She still has some gems later on in her career.
She does this whole album in acoustic as well. You should hear it, it’s amazing as usual.
I love watching you both react to the singular talent of Alanis
Brad’s got a crush…
She's widely credited with popularizing the phrase friends with benefits in this song. She's the shit
This is probably my favorite song of Alanis' Jagged Little Pill album, although it is definitely a close call. Absolute magical and phenomenal album! BTW, search on Head Over Feet acoustic and you will find that she made one....
Alanis is fluent in harmonica, flute, guitar, bass, vocals oh and French!
When I saw her sing ‘That I Would Be Good’ live on MTV Unplugged? Yep totally won me over. I knew she was amazing, but that performance nailed it for me lol Brilliant artist!
This is my favorite Alanis song. Absolutely love everything about it.
One of my favourites...
A lot of guys really enjoy alanis myself included. I use to say she's my guilty pleasure but I'm proud to like her music she's badass
You need to listen to What I really want, that's classic Alanis!

That's more like it. Agreed, Brad's infatuation is sweet. Good song, good reaction.
I saw her when she just started. She played in a beer bar in Indianapolis. Taylor was her drummer.
She put out her first cd at age 12. Toured for years before Jagged. A few albums and a few music vids way before you saw her.
Cool
