Alanis Morisette is not the artist that did the "I'm a bitch I'm a lover" song. Meredith Brooks is the artist.
I found out because I had the song stuck in my head and I looked it up on yt. The comments section showed me that I wasn't the only one who thought the song was by Alanis Morisette
Llllink

Alanis Morissette did the song named "Ironic" in which she gave a bunch of examples of things that were not actually ironic, which in itself is ironic.

Fun fact. Dave Grohl and Taylor Hawkins met when Foo Fighters were on tour with Alanis Morrissette. Taylor was drumming for alanis at the time.

I always think of "You Oughta Know" when i think of her.

I still think/hear "cross eyed bear that you gave to me" instead of "Cross I bare"

Hah! Up until this exact moment, I thought it was "The cross eyed stare that you gave to me"

I'm not gonna click on that link because there's no way this is true. You can't fool me.
