Subject: Alanis Morissette - The Early Years
Written By: whistledog on 06/05/06 at 1:31 pm
In 1995, Alanis Morissette had her breakthrough with the album "Jagged Little Pill", what you might not know is that here in Canada, she had already been a success prior to this ...
In the early 90's, she released two albums: Alanis (1991) and Now is the Time (1992), and scored several dance-pop hits Canada-wide. As well, she made a cameo appearance as herself in the low-budget Canadian film "Anything For Love" starring Corey Haim and Nicole Eggert

If Alanis was popular in the US as a teen queen, "Jagged Little Pill" might've been a flop and the public would still think of her as her former image. Unfortunately, that would be true.
Though I know she was on the '80's kids' sketch comedy show "You Can't Do This On Television"/

In interviews, she has said that she won't allow these CD's to be re-issued, so they are officially deletes. These were Canadian only releases, so I'm betting she thinks that she might lose some of her fans, if the world outside of Canada found out that she wasn't always alternative.
Oh well, thanks to this thread, YouTube, and many Alanis websites out there, it's too late for that. The truth is out :D
I was a big fan of her during this period. I still have the cassette single for "Too Hot"
