TIMELINE

Alanis Morissettebutton.gif (123 bytes) Alanis Morissette was born June 1, 1974 in Ottawa, Canada. By the time Alanis was 23, she had become a popular dance singer in her homeland, a teen member of a child's television series, and a world-wide superstar with the release of her first serious collection of music called Jagged Little Pill. With such diverse achievements so soon in life, even Alanis has said she's hard to categorize: "People have always said I was an old soul. They said I was always a little more intense and introspective than everyone was used to seeing girls to be, so they didn't know where to categorize me." In her early youth, Alanis's family moved around a lot, including a stay in West Germany and attending a Roman Catholic school. Alanis learned ballet, jazz dancing, and the piano by the age of 7 and writing songs for the fun of it by age 9. With idols such as Olivia Newton-John and George Michael, Alanis began her showbiz career as a child actress, appearing on the Nickelodeon TV show, You Can't Do That On Television at age 11. She also appeared in the 1993 film, Just One Of The Girls.

1991...

button.gif (123 bytes) Acting eventually led to a successful singing career in Canada as a young dance and pop diva. When Alanis was 11, she released her first single in Canada, "Fate Stay With Me." Although the single was not successful, within 2 years Alanis was signed with MCA. In 1991, Alanis released her first LP in Canada, Alanis. The dance and pop LP sold over 100,000 copies in her native land and won her a Juno Award for Most Promising Female Artist.

1992...

Alanis Morissette - Now Is The Timebutton.gif (123 bytes) Alanis released Now Is The Time which also went platinum in Canada. Although the first 2 recordings Alanis released may be thought of as an embarrassment for an up-and-coming alternative rebellious singer, Alanis has few regrets: "...I'm not scared people might hear these records. I never did Playboy centerfolds. There's nothing I regret. Maybe people will just understand my lyrics a little more if they hear those records. It validates this record [Jagged Little Pill]."

1994...

button.gif (123 bytes) After moving to Los Angeles Alanis met up with her eventual producer, Glen Ballard. After meeting with several songwriters that didn't click with what Alanis wanted, Ballard was a welcome surprise. Ballad has said of Alanis: "What struck me about Alanis was that she was so incredibly self-possessed. I just connected with her as a person... She was so intelligent and ready to take a chance on doing something that might have no commercial application. Although there was some questions about what she wanted to do musically, she knew what she didn't want to do, which was anything that wasn't authentic and from the heart."

1995... # 6 Singles Artist of the Year

June
Alanis Morissette - Jagged Little Pillbutton.gif (123 bytes) Alanis released Jagged Little Pill on Madonna's Maverick Records label. The lead-off single, "You Oughta Know" grew in popularity on rock and alternative stations with its gritty lyrics and frantic video. "Most of the songs are in a roundabout way actually addressed to myself... there's a certain aspect of the songs that's very confessional, very unadulterated. I wrote some of the songs and woke up the next day not even remembering I'd done them... almost like a stream of consciousness. It was a very unfettered, spiritual experience." Eventually, pop radio began playing the track and Alanis found her audiences expand. "Hand In My Pocket" continued Alanis's success and her Top 10 LP soon starting spending a number of weeks at #1. Alanis had transformed herself from dance music diva to a stripped-down in-your-face performer. She stated: "I've been told a few times now that I don't look like my songs. People expect me to have purple hair and a pierced nose and boobs. Then they meet me, and I'm just... me. I hate to let anyone down but I'm not the cleavage sort of aesthetic babe. I've been down that road before, and that's not what I'm about."

When I did stop and I was silent and I breathed... once I got through everything that inevitably sort of came up because I was silent and ready to deal with things. I was just left with an immense amount of gratitude, and inspiration, and love, and bliss, and that's where the song came from, you know." Alanis also told the Los Angeles Times: "I thought that fame and success would solve your problems, that there would be a sense of peace or self-esteem raised by having all this external success... I basically let go of so many things... coming to terms with the fact that... I don't have to write another lyric or poem or song ever again if I don't want to."
