This generation will never understand the excitement we all had when we discovered this bonus track. It all goes something like this for all of us: we always played the album and then switched to something else or played the album from the beginning again. Then one day we let it play because we got busy doing something else and it scared the heck out of us but we were instantly transported to what felt like her private moment. What a time to be alive. ❤
@@crystalv6122 I misspoke. What I meant was: "I am pretty sure a lot of men have been stalked, or is stalking only wrong when women are the victims?" Now, imagine a man sung this song. Is it okay for him to do? Is it exciting to hear his private thoughts? Let me put this into perspective. To a guy, this would be like an ex braking into your house to smell your panties in your bedroom, while you weren't at home. In your shoes, I'd find that horrifying.
My son who is 23 has a vinyl record player which I was surprised but he put it well when he said it allows you to have a physical connection to music and to explore the album in a way you can't with streaming. It made me remember this album and this hidden track and he is spot on. BTW I looked on my spotifiy for this album and the hidden track isn't there. This is one of my favorite songs and really was a jem to find this track
Mine as well... I remember I was sitting on the floor in the den... was about to get up to replay the album... and heard this incredible Erie beautiful song!! I kept thinking *imagine I got up and didn't hear it at the amazing moment* I believe everything happens for a reason- I tweaked the stereo system- my Dad came running in we sat together and kept listening to it. It became his favorite song! R.I.P My Man this ones for You 🖤
I remember being a teen in the 90s and playing CDs on my shitty Compaq computer. Every so often I'd pop one in and there would be extra content and features.
@@EvanRockwell1 Thanks for the info. Unlike a lot of people, I don't mind being corrected. It is never too late to learn. It got me thinking, so I looked it up on the internet. I found the following: Style guides vary when it comes to a name that ends in an "s." Even if the name ends in "s," it's still correct to add another "'s" to create the possessive form. It's also acceptable to add only an apostrophe to the end of singular nouns that end in "s" to make them possessive. In this case, you can show possession for Ross in either of two ways: Ross' room Ross's sports team Perhaps we were both correct:)
I just searched for this song after reading a Reddit thread about hauntingly beautiful songs. Suddenly I am 15 years old again and experiencing my first broken heart and skipping through the whole album to play this song over and over again. I never understood why this was a bonus track and not a feature of an album. Now that I’m older, I kinda get it. This one meant something and it was just safely tucked away for those of us that were fortunate enough to find it.
This is probably the most beautiful song on the entire album... and it's a bonus track! Glad she went the acapella route with this. It might not have had the same impact had there been music. Haunting. Incredible.
Totally agree!! Mine as well... I remember I was sitting on the floor in the den... was about to get up to replay the album... and heard this incredible Erie beautiful song!!

No... It's not. This is creepy as F*ck. I'm a guy and this is not romantic. If this is what you're saying is beautiful then you wouldn't mind the following: Imagine someone infatuated with you broke into your house, knowing that you'd chosen someone else, went into your bedroom to smell you. They knew they shouldn't be there. Asked the space if they danced in you shower or slept in your bed. They took off their clothes, put on your clothes... Used your cologne/perfume to remind them of you. Please put yourself in the other's shoes. Would you want this done to you?
@@Fizwalker oh, that's an interesting (and yes, super creepy) take! I always assumed the idea was that they're in a relationship and she realizes he's cheating on her. Which wouldn't make the circumstances less creepy if they happened, but that makes the whole thing sound like she's imagining it - because surely she wouldn't be running a bath or burning incense. So it becomes a fancyful daydream that turns into anxiety. But in your version there's no reason her actions have to make sense, and a stalker that doesn't mind her break-in being noticed is pretty much horror movie territory. Huh.
@@Fizwalker EXACTLY!!! Thank you for articulating that so well--I have been on the receiving end of stalkers, & it's not fun--it is a very disturbing thing to have happen to you.
I had this CD for like ever when I was a teenager. One day I had it playing while cleaning my room and it came on. I remember dropping to my knees like, what? This has been here the whole time??? Called my best friend and told her. She had no idea either. Hands down my All Time Favorite. Beautifully painful song.

With this song I can see a broken hearted lover trying to hold on for just one more moment and time, and the crush to find out there was now someone else. It's a beautiful song. Its one of my favorites.
Your secret is safe with me. My brother is the same. Metal head for life, but he will throw down for this album and also The wallflowers' one headlight.
So how many people didn't actually know this song was at the end of the album the first time they heard it? *raises hand* I had listened to the whole album before, but then one time I just left it playing....man, when she started singing this, the hairs on the back of my neck stood up! I always thought the POV sounds almost as if she's not just a stalker ex, but like she's actually passed on as well....like a spirit, revisiting her former lover, who has, of course, moved on since her tragic death....*sniffle*
I see it as... She's his girlfriend. She loves him and wants to be around his things without him watching...she misses him. She goes into his house unbidden, plays around half the day before she notices a letter on his desk, realises that he is cheating on her...she is devastated...
I knew it was there. I was a big fan of AM drinking back in the mid to late 90s. I often left it playing because I was to drink to move and the first time I heard the breathe I was like what!!!!!!
i was in the car with my mom and we had this cd in. She used to play this cd all the time but one day she had it in and when the track kept going i asked “whys it still going” and she said “it’s a hidden song. Your old enough to hear it now” and that’s how i learned about this song.
My heart skipped a beat reading this. I remember discovering the track pretty soon after I bought it as a young teen. And even then, you may not fully understand such emotion but I knew this song was so powerful. How did YOU respond??? :D
I went to your house Walked up the stairs Opened the door without ringing the bell Walked down the hall Into your room where I could smell you And I shouldn't be here Without permission Shouldn't be here [Chorus] Would you forgive me love if I danced in your shower Would you forgive me love if I laid in your bed Would you forgive me love if I stay all afternoon? I took off my clothes Put on your robe Went through your drawers And I found your cologne Went down to the den Found your cd's And I played your Joni And I shouldn't stay long You might be home soon Shouldn't stay long [Chorus] Would you forgive me love if I danced in your shower Would you forgive me love if I laid in your bed Would you forgive me love if I stay all afternoon? I burned your incense I ran a bath I noticed a letter that sat on your desk It said: 'Hello, love. I love you so, love. Meet me at midnight.' And no, it wasn't my writing I'd better go soon It wasn't my writing So forgive me love If I cry in your shower So forgive me love for the salt in your bed So forgive me love If I cry all afternoon

In the 90’s often there were hidden tracks by artists. I’d listen just for them. This was by far my favorite. Still to this day it feels the same, I’m a senior in HS again. My brother even stole this cassette from me lol
This was, hands down, my favorite Alannis song. Sang it all the time. Years later, could not find this cd and kept thinking about this song. It’s not on the Spotify album and they only have the acoustic version. Thank you for posting this because I haven’t heard this song in at least 10 years ❤❤❤
My fav Alanis Morissette song…I’d sing it while left alone when I lived in VillePlatte in 1997 and my sweet neighbors that were in a band overheard me singing and wanted me to sing with them but, I was too chicken…🐣

Like so many of you.. I discovered this track purely by accident all those years ago on her CD. As it began playing.. I couldn’t believe it - the track was so haunting .. and totally transported me into that situation of loving someone.. and realising.. I wasn’t the only one. I think I sat in my bedroom floor for a long time that day.. just digesting that. Alanis.. Thank-you x you helped me through many awkward growing pains - much love then.. now and always
Alanis- I still feel that lost love angst 25 years later. You are The Queen 👑 then, now, and always. I don’t think another artist can capture this pain- especially A’capella 🙌
+Clarence Dass All of a sudden, I'm seventeen or eighteen again, standing in my room in front of my dresser or sitting on my bed with my jaw hanging down because there was a surprise track on the CD...and it turned out to be one awesome song!

That's just scary. What is it with all of you females on here thinking it's cool to stalk? If you ever had it happen to you, I bet you wouldn't be singing this stupid song!
+Alicia Waring I definitely agree!!! I sang this song in my 9th grade talent show; I got a lot of crap from the teachers and other parents for it being too "provocative" but I didn't care!
Adrian Pritchard bless your heart. Do you feel like a tough guy when you troll 2 women who have said nothing controversial at all? Just making friendly convo? Your mother didnt hug you enough? What's the problem?
It was 2016, I was 10 years old. My mom had saved her cd’s for me and I always changed after my favorite but then this beauty filled my ears and it was truly a cataclysm of emotion. I WAS 10 😭😭🫶
I've been trying to fnid this one.........couldn't for the life of me remember the name of it, and couldn't even remember the way the song went...but just had this vague memory of needing to listen to it...no idea why...

going through this right now n this speaks to me in such emotion tht i cant describe. we shared a house together a life...n now he hates me n locked me out of it n wont talk to me anymore. but when i go back to the house i feel the sadness the memories of each room n it haunts me..the smell of it of his cologne..so its not a creepy song if uve lived there with ur bf before n ur stuff is still there sitting in the same spot it used to be...such a sad hopeless feeling if anyone knows what that feels like.
I bought this cd when it 1st came out. I played it from beginning to the end. Heard this song and knew it was a secret song. I love every song on this cd.
Sitting here in 2022 - remembering the moment I found this hidden gem ❤️❤️❤️ got the urge to go dig out my old cd… and I can’t believe I still remember EVERY WORD!! I bet I drove my family crazy blaring this one!!!
lol No doubt. I was on a walk with my dog and had my CD in. Got distracted with the dog and wowah, this came on at the end. This entire album got me through a very rough 1994.
I loved the album..... This is the worst song on it. Consider this: Would you find this acceptable behavior for a man to do you? I don't want a woman to do this to me, and therefore I don't find it acceptable for a anyone to do it to anyone else. On the other hand, I now have a litmus test for women, if they think this song is okay, I'm out. Reverse is true, if a man thinks this is okay you should run.
I just woke up with this in my head :') no idea why. I have not heard in years and years. I bought this album with my allowance $$ when I was 12 & remember finding this song hidden on the cassette for the first time was like wtf Alanis this is so creepy 😂
@@Fizwalker no its not. Alanis talked about this song being about when a guy she just started kinda dating left town and let her stay at his place while he was gone.

I discovered this hidden track with friends during a sleepover. We were all madly in love with this album so of course we had it playing in friend’s mini boom box. We were all talking about whatever/playing games, and the way all startled with eyes widened when this single, small voice started singing, and the faces we pulled as we listened to these (frankly deranged) lyrics, is such a memory. That was such a fun night, and I still love this track way more than the accompanied version.
I remember this being my first cd ever, I let it play the whole way out, and this song started playing after about 20-30 minutes after the last song. I’ll always remember the space I was in. I was 10 years old. 💜
This is my childhood. My second concert and it was too deep for a 13 yr old to understand. At 39 the album ended up feeding my soul and relating to me anyway.
The first time I heard this song I was 18 and my first love had just broken up with me. I could relate with what her words conveyed 😢still after all these years I shed a tear.
This song is brilliant. What a voice and those lyrics. I listen to it a now and then, re-experiencing the intense pain of heartbreak. Moves me to tears. I love her.
This song brings back so many memories ❤️ I was about 20 years old and I was head over heels with this Marine I met. I never told him how I felt. I played the best friend card. I think he had an inkling of how I felt. He moved away and I went on with my own life.
I remember being in my bunk at AIT in Fort Gordon and I was listening to this album... I dozed off toward the end was almost asleep and out of the blue this CD Walk man started to play this song and I'm like...wt?!+. Love this tune
Gets to me every time I hear it. The young are truly vulnerable and I'm glad I matured past this phase of my life. Thank you Alanis for being, well you ❤️
She sang this during her Triple Moon Tour and I still got that indulgent feeling from discovering this hidden gem! If you are on the fence about seeing her live -do it. She was phenomenal!
i still love this song. it was great when it came out in the 90s and i was just a teenager, but i read the lyrics now and i think "no way would this happen today".. everyone has cameras around their houses. lol
For 25 1/2 years this song has been in my head and I couldn't figure what it is until I just typed in Alanis Morissette and found out it was "Your House", my conscious is now cleared since 1996!
I remembering hearing this secret track for the first time when I was 13 and being so taken in by it that I was fearful of Alanis singing about the guy coming back home. Also, this is a guy-proof song. There is no man who would sing this song without sounding like a complete creep.
My first really committed relationship where the emotional roller coaster was too real. Such an intense period of time of my late teens and early 20’s. It’s been over twenty years now since I’ve seen that girl and I hope beyond hope that one day I’ll see her again. To explain that we were so young and that we needn’t hold anything against one another. This album was played over and over thousands of times and really helped me. As I listen to it now , I can close my eyes and be in the room with her as though it were just yesterday. I hope she knows how much I loved her and that I always will. Sometimes in life we learn that love ….. sadly, isn’t enough.
Been trying to find this after hearing it on the album and was SO confused haha. It is by far the best song on the entire album - think I may do my next choreography to this :)
There's a particular brilliance to making this a hidden track on this album. Odds are that if you've just let the CD play to get to this point, it means that this is a song for the mood you're probably in by the end of the album, if you weren't listening to the album for that very reason to begin with.
Takes me back to my youth and times I will never get back, old friends, old relationships, smoking joints, sunny days and being carefree! My times have changed but the music never does and she is a phenomenal artist I’ll always admire!!!
when this was a new album it was a great time to be 20ish that is for damn sure. old friends, old relationships, smoking joints, sunny days and being carefree! absolute freedom is what this album means to me
My mom found this song after my dad cheated on her and she was laying in bed and was too sad to turn it off and then this song played. And ever since its been her favorite song and now mine.
I lived it...She never knew...A key in hand trying to find the answers. Remembering how much I loved her knowing she didn't care. Just lost remembering beautiful moments.
still love this song!!!! scared the shit out of me the first time I heart it I was in the shower with the cd playing on my radio and her voice came out of no where lol lol
Alanis wrote that song about how did she break into a guy’s house when he was a away on a trip to Tokyo. She went through his possessions, looked in his drawers, got in his shower and took one, wore his robe, played his Joni Mitchell CD called “Blue” and slept in his bed.
This generation will never understand the excitement we all had when we discovered this bonus track.

@@daniellelouisedh I know! 👍🏾
I know!!!! I felt so cool going to school being like, omg you guys I know something you don’t know
Almost 26 years since the album was released, and we are still listening AND making comments. A true testament to Alanis’ talent.
*Alanis's
The apostrophe after an "s" only applies to plural nouns, not proper nouns that end in "s". Sorry, it's just my pet peeve.
@@EvanRockwell1 Thanks for the info. Unlike a lot of people, I don't mind being corrected. It is never too late to learn. It got me thinking, so I looked it up on the internet. I found the following:

In this case, you can show possession for Ross in either of two ways:
Ross' room
Ross's sports team
Perhaps we were both correct:)

To this day this hidden track gives me chills and tears. Classic one of a kind stuff. Belongs in the Rock n Roll Hall of fame.
i was in the car with my mom and we had this cd in. She used to play this cd all the time but one day she had it in and when the track kept going i asked “whys it still going” and she said “it’s a hidden song. Your old enough to hear it now” and that’s how i learned about this song.

Possibly the most beautiful and most saddest song ever sung.
I went to your house
Walked up the stairs
Opened the door without ringing the bell
Walked down the hall
Into your room where I could smell you
And I shouldn't be here
Without permission
Shouldn't be here
[Chorus]
Would you forgive me love if I danced in your shower
Would you forgive me love if I laid in your bed
Would you forgive me love if I stay all afternoon?
I took off my clothes
Put on your robe
Went through your drawers
And I found your cologne
Went down to the den
Found your cd's
And I played your Joni
And I shouldn't stay long
You might be home soon
Shouldn't stay long
[Chorus]
Would you forgive me love if I danced in your shower
Would you forgive me love if I laid in your bed
Would you forgive me love if I stay all afternoon?
I burned your incense
I ran a bath
I noticed a letter that sat on your desk
It said:
'Hello, love.
I love you so, love.
Meet me at midnight.'
And no, it wasn't my writing
I'd better go soon
It wasn't my writing
So forgive me love If I cry in your shower
So forgive me love for the salt in your bed
So forgive me love If I cry all afternoon
Thank you
So forgive me love for INSULTING your bed

Still here in 2023. One of the best vocal performances I’ve listened too. Dame I miss the 90’s
In the 90’s often there were hidden tracks by artists. I’d listen just for them. This was by far my favorite. Still to this day it feels the same, I’m a senior in HS again. My brother even stole this cassette from me lol
Did you stalk your ex's because this is so romantic?
This was, hands down, my favorite Alannis song. Sang it all the time. Years later, could not find this cd and kept thinking about this song. It’s not on the Spotify album and they only have the acoustic version. Thank you for posting this because I haven’t heard this song in at least 10 years ❤❤❤
One of my earliest memories as a child is my mother dancing and singing this song with me in her arms❤
That is so beautiful 🙏🏼💜💜
@@eleanor4759 Beautiful, my behind--it's frigging creepy! Singing a song about stalking to a newborn--beautiful indeed. 🙄
@@troyschneck4934 🤣🤣
My fav Alanis Morissette song…I’d sing it while left alone when I lived in VillePlatte in 1997 and my sweet neighbors that were in a band overheard me singing and wanted me to sing with them but, I was too chicken…🐣
Truly haunting and beautiful.
... I remember I was sitting on the floor in the den... was about to get up to replay the album... and heard this incredible Erie beautiful song!! I kept thinking *imagine I got up and didn't hear it at the amazing moment* I believe everything happens for a reason- I tweaked the stereo system- my Dad came running in we sat together and kept listening to it. It became his favorite song! R.I.P My Man this ones for You 🖤
Like so many of you.. I discovered this track purely by accident all those years ago on her CD. As it began playing.. I couldn’t believe it - the track was so haunting .. and totally transported me into that situation of loving someone.. and realising.. I wasn’t the only one. I think I sat in my bedroom floor for a long time that day.. just digesting that.
Alanis.. Thank-you x you helped me through many awkward growing pains - much love then.. now and always
Alanis- I still feel that lost love angst 25 years later. You are The Queen 👑 then, now, and always. I don’t think another artist can capture this pain- especially A’capella 🙌
Makes me feel 15 again.
+Clarence Dass I was 7 when this album came out!
+Cindy “Kyle's BabyGirl” Cauthen haha doesn't make me feel old at all.
+Clarence Dass All of a sudden, I'm seventeen or eighteen again, standing in my room in front of my dresser or sitting on my bed with my jaw hanging down because there was a surprise track on the CD...and it turned out to be one awesome song!
5years old!!
Age 11! :-)
Masterpiece 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
takes me back to my high school days..... sitting outside with a group of girls singing this song at the top of our lungs.....
Mine as well... I remember I was sitting on the floor in the den... was about to get up to replay the album... and heard this incredible Erie beautiful song!! I kept thinking *imagine I got up and didn't hear it at the amazing moment* I believe everything happens for a reason- I tweaked the stereo system- my Dad came running in we sat together and kept listening to it.

That's just scary. What is it with all of you females on here thinking it's cool to stalk? If you ever had it happen to you, I bet you wouldn't be singing this stupid song!
One of the most moving songs ever
+Alicia Waring I definitely agree!!! I sang this song in my 9th grade talent show; I got a lot of crap from the teachers and other parents for it being too "provocative" but I didn't care!
+Cindy “Kyle's BabyGirl” Cauthen its a great song!!! Teachers are always trying suppress creativity LOL!!
Do Americans actually have any lessons in school??! In between all the wrestling and talent shows it's no wonder you're all so thick!
Adrian Pritchard bless your heart. Do you feel like a tough guy when you troll 2 women who have said nothing controversial at all? Just making friendly convo? Your mother didnt hug you enough? What's the problem?
So said the guy who's spent no time in America, himself, at all. Up your bum, mook.
One of the best tracks on the album. She and Sinead are so good when they go acapella. I MISS THE 90S
I cry every time I listen to this.... Heartbreak is the worse feeling EVER!
This song isn't about heartbreak. She wrote this song while staying at a friend's house and snooping through his stuff lol true story.
Awee...
It was 2016, I was 10 years old. My mom had saved her cd’s for me and I always changed after my favorite but then this beauty filled my ears and it was truly a cataclysm of emotion. I WAS 10 😭😭🫶
I saw her perform this live back in 2011, and it was even better live. So good. Tears were flowing down.
How can a voice that's already phenomenal be even more mind blowing?
Answer: Alanis Morissette
never forgot this song
I've been trying to fnid this one.........couldn't for the life of me remember the name of it, and couldn't even remember the way the song went...but just had this vague memory of needing to listen to it...no idea why...

going through this right now n this speaks to me in such emotion tht i cant describe. we shared a house together a life...n now he hates me n locked me out of it n wont talk to me anymore. but when i go back to the house i feel the sadness the memories of each room n it haunts me..the smell of it of his cologne..so its not a creepy song if uve lived there with ur bf before n ur stuff is still there sitting in the same spot it used to be...such a sad hopeless feeling if anyone knows what that feels like.
I bought this cd when it 1st came out. I played it from beginning to the end. Heard this song and knew it was a secret song. I love every song on this cd.
Sitting here in 2022 - remembering the moment I found this hidden gem ❤️❤️❤️ got the urge to go dig out my old cd… and I can’t believe I still remember EVERY WORD!! I bet I drove my family crazy blaring this one!!!
lol No doubt. I was on a walk with my dog and had my CD in. Got distracted with the dog and wowah, this came on at the end. This entire album got me through a very rough 1994.
I would listen to this song on repeat...loved that my CD had this hidden track ❤
I wish this version was on tidal so I could add it to my play list....the acoustic is good but the haunted ache in this version is epic!!
So many times I played this track, and it is still one of my favorites off the Album.
I loved the album..... This is the worst song on it. Consider this: Would you find this acceptable behavior for a man to do you? I don't want a woman to do this to me, and therefore I don't find it acceptable for a anyone to do it to anyone else. On the other hand, I now have a litmus test for women, if they think this song is okay, I'm out. Reverse is true, if a man thinks this is okay you should run.
Breaks my heart every time.
2019 and this song is still amazing ✌️
2023 :)
I just woke up with this in my head :') no idea why. I have not heard in years and years. I bought this album with my allowance $$ when I was 12 & remember finding this song hidden on the cassette for the first time was like wtf Alanis this is so creepy 😂
I remember being younger and I would always listen to this song really loud and sing along! :D great way to practice :D
180 Seconds of shiver down my spine! I cried my heard out for so many times...
Not many singers can sing such a beautiful song without the aids of any instrument. Alanis 😍
Did you even listen to the lyrics? It's about a stalker... Who broke into their ex's house.
And yet still beautiful despite the subject.
@@Fizwalker no its not. Alanis talked about this song being about when a guy she just started kinda dating left town and let her stay at his place while he was gone.
@@Fizwalker What is up with everyone not getting that??
@@jessicatavi116 Whatever--if she actually said that, it was probably because she got called out on it for being a creepy stalker song.
The best song on this whole album!!
Playing CDs. Sigh what a time 😢. We relive better times through music.
The secret track 👏
What I would give to hear this song for the first time again.
One of the greatest artists ever ❤
best played very loud
Adam O'Brien best listened to a month after a breakup.

I discovered this hidden track with friends during a sleepover. We were all madly in love with this album so of course we had it playing in friend’s mini boom box. We were all talking about whatever/playing games, and the way all startled with eyes widened when this single, small voice started singing, and the faces we pulled as we listened to these (frankly deranged) lyrics, is such a memory. That was such a fun night, and I still love this track way more than the accompanied version.
I remember this being my first cd ever, I let it play the whole way out, and this song started playing after about 20-30 minutes after the last song. I’ll always remember the space I was in. I was 10 years old. 💜
This is my childhood. My second concert and it was too deep for a 13 yr old to understand. At 39 the album ended up feeding my soul and relating to me anyway.
Omg... it gets stuck in my head randomly .. and noone else knows it... until I found it here... I love you all for knowing it exists
I was surprised by this hidden track on the album. I love it because she sang it in acapella😍😍😍
The first time I heard this song I was 18 and my first love had just broken up with me. I could relate with what her words conveyed 😢still after all these years I shed a tear.
Best song on the whole album.
And.... Stalker has identified herself. Before you reply, imagine the roles were reversed.
Tražila sam ovu pjesmu nisam se mogla sjetiti naziva, najbolja umjetnost koju sam čula ikad! ❤🎼
Hurts like hell...
+Vanilla Sky sounds like you had/have a stalker yourself ;)
Bought the vinyl last night and was disappointed this song wasn’t on it 😣😭 So I came here to listen to it
Absolutely beautiful! Her voice is her instrument. 🌠
One of the greatest albums of all time!
This song is brilliant. What a voice and those lyrics. I listen to it a now and then, re-experiencing the intense pain of heartbreak. Moves me to tears. I love her.
Gives me chills every time.
I loved this hidden track back in the years
This song brings back so many memories ❤️ I was about 20 years old and I was head over heels with this Marine I met. I never told him how I felt. I played the best friend card. I think he had an inkling of how I felt. He moved away and I went on with my own life.
But you probably didn't break into his house & do weird stuff with his clothes, shower, cologne, & bed. That song is just effed up.
@@troyschneck4934 oh gosh no ... I didn't break into anything. This song just happened to come out when I met him.
This song is so heartbreakingly good. Gets me every time
I remember being in my bunk at AIT in Fort Gordon and I was listening to this album... I dozed off toward the end was almost asleep and out of the blue this CD Walk man started to play this song and I'm like...wt?!+. Love this tune
I've haven't fallen out of love with this song even after all of these years since the LP's release. Gawd, her vocals are flawless in this.
Gets to me every time I hear it. The young are truly vulnerable and I'm glad I matured past this phase of my life. Thank you Alanis for being, well you ❤️
She sang this during her Triple Moon Tour and I still got that indulgent feeling from discovering this hidden gem! If you are on the fence about seeing her live -do it. She was phenomenal!
i still love this song. it was great when it came out in the 90s and i was just a teenager, but i read the lyrics now and i think "no way would this happen today".. everyone has cameras around their houses. lol
For 25 1/2 years this song has been in my head and I couldn't figure what it is until I just typed in Alanis Morissette and found out it was "Your House", my conscious is now cleared since 1996!
Eitaaaaa
Que voz maravilhosa 🎶❤👏🏻
I remembering hearing this secret track for the first time when I was 13 and being so taken in by it that I was fearful of Alanis singing about the guy coming back home. Also, this is a guy-proof song. There is no man who would sing this song without sounding like a complete creep.
I'm listening to the full album tonight that bought in 95, and this song at 41 years old, really hits😢😢😢😢
my all time favorite song of hers... I wish I could sing with Alanis someday.. everyone says I have her type of voice...♡♡♡♡♡
GO 4 IT! :D
I just saw her in concert over the weekend and she was phenomenal!!!!!! Sold out show!
My first really committed relationship where the emotional roller coaster was too real. Such an intense period of time of my late teens and early 20’s. It’s been over twenty years now since I’ve seen that girl and I hope beyond hope that one day I’ll see her again. To explain that we were so young and that we needn’t hold anything against one another. This album was played over and over thousands of times and really helped me. As I listen to it now , I can close my eyes and be in the room with her as though it were just yesterday. I hope she knows how much I loved her and that I always will. Sometimes in life we learn that love ….. sadly, isn’t enough.
You should hear this on a proper sound system.................DAMN
The other version with instruments is ok, but I prefer this because this is the obviously the one I heard first. Love to sing this song a lot.
I cry every time I listen to this.... Heartbreak is the worse feeling EVER!
This is crippling
This is crippling
Not in my cassette either, but finding out that it's an hidden track has made my day! I love this song. It's so powerful...
This was always my favorite song on this album.
Been trying to find this after hearing it on the album and was SO confused haha. It is by far the best song on the entire album - think I may do my next choreography to this :)
There's a particular brilliance to making this a hidden track on this album. Odds are that if you've just let the CD play to get to this point, it means that this is a song for the mood you're probably in by the end of the album, if you weren't listening to the album for that very reason to begin with.
Takes me back to my youth and times I will never get back, old friends, old relationships, smoking joints, sunny days and being carefree! My times have changed but the music never does and she is a phenomenal artist I’ll always admire!!!
when this was a new album it was a great time to be 20ish that is for damn sure. old friends, old relationships, smoking joints, sunny days and being carefree! absolute freedom is what this album means to me
This song gives me chills every time I hear it. BADASS!!
Pretty dope still in 2018
July 2019 and this song still gives me chills. My favorite from this album and i almost missed it when i played the cds way back 1996.. uuùgh
I’ve loved this song and CD since 12
Liar
Such an intense beautiful lyric I love Jagged little Pill as the teen I was then as the adult I am now this will always be my favorite
I’ve had that CD for as long as I can remember but I haven’t heard this song before.
Let it keep going after the last track; it takes a couple minutes.
You still got it going on Miss Morissette! Saw you live this July and you rocked the house...Killer Voice. Forever a favorite 🤩
Teenage vibes. First CD I ever bought with my own money. Read every song. Love every song.
My mom found this song after my dad cheated on her and she was laying in bed and was too sad to turn it off and then this song played. And ever since its been her favorite song and now mine.
I lived it...She never knew...A key in hand trying to find the answers. Remembering how much I loved her knowing she didn't care. Just lost remembering beautiful moments.
still love this song!!!! scared the shit out of me the first time I heart it I was in the shower with the cd playing on my radio and her voice came out of no where lol lol
Still one of the best songs
Alanis wrote that song about how did she break into a guy’s house when he was a away on a trip to Tokyo. She went through his possessions, looked in his drawers, got in his shower and took one, wore his robe, played his Joni Mitchell CD called “Blue” and slept in his bed.
it was definately on the cd. i had the cd and remember this song. no idea if it was on the cassette
bugasssy Its on the cassette version, I still play it everyday
Yep. Hidden track.
