For three and a half decades, Alanis Morissette has been a globally recognized music legend – yet it’s just this year that she will finally take the stage at Glastonbury festival for the first time.
As a devoted fan, I’ve always admired how Alanis Morissette has etched her unique sound and heartfelt lyrics into the fabric of popular music. From Ironic and Hand in My Pocket to Everything and Thank U, her songs have resonated deeply with millions around the world. It’s truly awe-inspiring to witness her success, having sold over 85 million albums, making her one of the most influential artists globally.
In the ’90s, Alanis Morissette was one of the standout performers, and she’s kept her success going strong. Among her many achievements is an album that sold ten times platinum, which later became the basis for a hit Broadway show.
Reflecting on her discography thus far, I trace back to her self-titled debut album from 1991, complete with a detailed playlist for each release that follows.
