'UNVITED' OFF CITY OF ANGELS SOUNDTRACK SAW ALANIS MORISSETTE SWITCH FROM ANGRY TO ANGELIC MODE

Alanis Morissette rose to worldwide fame on the back of what
is still considered to be one of the greatest angst rock albums
ever recorded. JAGGED LITTLE PILL proved to be an unlikely
commercial mega-hit in 1995, her raw and emotional vocals
hit the spot with a massive female audience who took to
her unpretentious and powerful anti-men lyrical senti-
ments. I have to admit that i am not a big fan of the
angst rock genre, hearing peeved off chicks letting
rip about how bad the men in their life have been
to them is not exactly an ear pleasing experience
if you ask me. But in 1998, Alanis recorded this
song off the CITY OF ANGELS soundtrack by the
name UNINVITED. A truly adorable and sweep-
ing rock epic with a Kashmir like orchestral
accompanyment, the song proved only too
well that Alanis Morrisette could really sing
& not just whine and rasp about the rotten
men she had dealt with, it was very hard to
believe this was the women who delivered
JAGGED LITTLE PILL to the world. There
are a couple of live versions of this song
on the internet, in this instance i think
the studio one rules. Alanis dropped off
the radar almost as quickly as the movie
did after this movie soundtrack was re-
leased, over a decade later it remains
to be seen if she makes a big comeback.
