Sobre el álbum

Dentro de la extensa discografía de Alanis Morissette, su "MTV Unplugged" captura la magia de la artista en un formato acústico y cercano. Grabado en la cúspide de su popularidad, este disco en directo despoja a sus canciones de la distorsión eléctrica para mostrarlas en su esqueleto melódico y lírico. El concierto revela la increíble solidez de sus composiciones, que brillan con una nueva intensidad en este ambiente íntimo. La interpretación de Morissette es apasionada y llena de matices.

El álbum no solo incluye los grandes éxitos de sus dos primeros discos internacionales, sino que también presenta canciones inéditas como "No Pressure Over Cappuccino" y una emotiva versión de "King of Pain" de The Police. El disco ofrece una experiencia completa y de gran valor para sus seguidores. "Alanis Unplugged" es un testimonio de su poder como intérprete y una joya que demuestra la atemporalidad de su música.

  1. You Learn4:22

    Letra

    Oh, oh, oh I, recommend getting your heart trampled on to anyone, yeah I, recommend walking around naked in your living room, yeah Swallow it down (what a jagged little pill) It feels so good (swimming in your stomach) Wait until the dust settles You live you learn, you love you learn You cry you learn, you lose you learn You bleed you learn, you scream you learn I, recommend biting off more than you can chew to anyone I certainly do I, recommend sticking your foot in your mouth at any time Feel free Throw it down (the caution blocks you from the wind) Hold it up (to the rays) You wait and see when the smoke clears You live you learn, you love you learn You cry you learn, you lose you learn You bleed you learn, you scream you learn I, I, oh, oh Wear it out (the way a three-year-old would do) Melt it down (you're gonna have to eventually, anyway) The fire trucks are coming up around the bend You live you learn, you love you learn You cry you learn, you lose you learn You bleed you learn, you scream you learn You grieve you learn, you choke you learn You laugh you learn, you choose you learn You pray you learn, you ask you learn You live you learn
  2. Joining You5:09

    Letra

    Dear darling, Your mom, my friend Left a message on my machine She was frantic Saying you were talking crazy. That you wanted to do away with yourself. Guess she thought I would be the perfect resort Because we've had this inexplicable connection since our youth And yes, they're in shock They are panicked You and your chronic Them and their drama You this embarrassment Us in the middle of this delusion. If we were our bodies, If we were our futures, If we were our defenses, Id be joining you. If we were our culture, If we were our leaders, If we were our denials, Id be joining you. I remember vividly a day years ago, We were camping. You knew more than you thought you should know. You said I don't want ever to be brainwashed And you were mind boggling, you were intense. You were uncomfortable in your own skin. You were thirsty, But mostly you were beautiful. If we were our name tags, If we were our rejections, If we were our outcomes, Id be joining you. If we were our indignities, If we were our successes, If we were our emotions, Id be joining you. You and I, were like four year olds. We want to know why, and how come about everything. We want to reveal ourselves at will, and speak our minds. And never talk small talk and be intuitive, And question mightily, and find God my tortured beacon. We need to find like-minded companions. If we were their condemnations, If we were their projections, If we were our paranoia's, Id be joining you. If we were our incomes, If we were our obsessions, If we were our afflictions, Id be joining you. We need a reflection, We need a really good memory. Feel free to call me a little more often.
  3. No Pressure Over Cappuccino4:41

    Letra

    And you're like a nineties Jesus. And you revel in your psychosis. How dare you? And you sample concepts like hors d'oeuvres, and you eat their questions for dessert. And is it just me, or is it hot in here? And you're like an nineties Kennedy. And you're really a million years old. You can't fool me. They'll throw opinions like rocks in riots, and they'll stumble around like hypocrites. Is it just me, or is it dark in here? Well, you may never be or have a husband. You may never have or hold a child. You will learn to lose ev'rything. We are temporary arrangements. And you're like a nineties Noah. And they laughed at you as you packed all of your things. And they wonder why you're frustrated, and they wonder why you're so angry. And is it just me, or are you fed up? And god bless you in your travels, in your conquests and queries.
  4. That I Would Be Good4:14

    Letra

    That I would be good even if I did nothing That I would be good even if I got the thumbs down That I would be good if I got and stayed sick That I would be good even if I gained ten pounds That I would be fine even if I went bankrupt That I would be good if I lost my hair and my youth That I would be great if I was no longer queen That I would be grand if I was not all knowing That I would be loved even when I numb myself That I would be good even when I am overwhelmed That I would be loved even when I was fuming That I would be good even if I was clingy That I would be good even if I lost sanity That I would be good Whether with or without you
  5. Head Over Feet4:23

    Letra

    I had no choice but to hear you You stated your case time and again I thought about it You treat me like I'm a princess I'm not used to liking that You ask how my day was You've already won me over in spite of me And don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet And don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are I couldn't help it It's all your fault Your love is thick and it swallowed me whole You're so much braver than I gave you credit for That's not lip service You've already won me over in spite of me And don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet And don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are I couldn't help it It's all your fault You are the bearer of unconditional things You held your breath and the door for me Thanks for your patience You're the best listener that I've ever met You're my best friend Best friend with benefits What took me so long I've never felt this healthy before I've never wanted something rational I am aware now I am aware now You've already won me over in spite of me And don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet And don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are I couldn't help it It's all your fault You've already won me over in spite of me And don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet And don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are I couldn't help it It's all your fault I couldn't help it It's all your fault

  7. I Was Hoping4:54

    Letra

    As we were talking outside, It was cold, We were shivering, yet warmed by the subject matter. My wife is in the next room, We've been having troubles you know, Please don't tell her or anyone, But I need to talk to somebody. You said, wouldn't it be a shame if I knew how great I was Five minutes before I died? Id be filled with such regret Before I took my last breath. And I said, you're willing to tell me this now, and you're not going to die Anytime soon. And I said I haven't been eating chicken, Or meat, Or anything. And you said yes, but you've been wearing leather and laughed and said Were at the top of the food chain. And yes you're still a fine woman, And I cringed. I was hoping, I was hoping we could heal each other. I was hoping, I was hoping we could be raw together. We left the restaurant where the head waiter (in his 60s), said good bye, sir. thank you for your business sir. you're successful and Established, sir, and we like the frequency with which you dine here sir. and Your money. And when I walked by, they said thank you too dear. I was all pigtails and cords. And there was a day when I would've said something like, hey dude, I could buy and sell this place, so kiss it. I too once thought I was owed something. I was hoping, I was hoping we could challenge each other. I was hoping, I was hoping we could crack each other up. I too thought that when proved wrong, I lost somehow. I too thought life was cruel. Its a cycle, really. You think I'm withdrawing and guilt tripping you. I think you're insensitive and I don't feel heard. And I said do you believe we are fundamentally judgmental? Fundamentally evil? And you said yes. And I said do you believe in revenge, in right or wrong, good or bad? And you said well, what about the man that I saw handcuffed in the emergency Room, Bleeding after beating his kid, and she threw a shoe at his head. I think what he did was wrong, and I wouldn't have had a hard time feeling Compassion for him. I had to watch my tone for fear of having you feel judged. I was hoping, I was hoping we could dance together. I was hoping, I was hoping we could be creamy together.
  8. Ironic4:14

    Letra

    An old man turned ninety-eight He won the lottery and died the next day It's a black fly in your Chardonnay It's a death row pardon two minutes too late Isn't it ironic, don't you think [Chorus] It's like rain on your wedding day It's a free ride when you've already paid It's the good advice that you just didn't take Who would've thought, it figures Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye He waited his whole damn life to take that flight And as the plane crashed down he thought "Well, isn't this nice." And isn't it ironic, don't you think [Chorus] Well, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you When you think everything's okay and everything's going right And life has a funny way of helping you out when You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up In your face A traffic jam when you're already late A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife It's meeting the man of my dreams And then meeting his beautiful wife And isn't it ironic, don't you think A little too ironic, and yeah I really do think [Chorus] Well, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you And life has a funny way of helping you out Helping you out.
  9. These R The Thoughts3:26
  10. King Of Pain4:05

    Letra

    There's a little black spot on the sun today It's the same old thing as yesterday There's a black hat caught in a high tree top There's a flag-pole rag and the wind won't stop I have stood here before inside the pouring rain With the world turning circles running 'round my brain I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign But it's my destiny to be the king of pain There's a fossil that's trapped in a high cliff wall That's my soul up there There's a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall That's my soul up there There's a blue whale beached by a springtime's ebb That's my soul up there There's a butterfly trapped in a spider's web I have stood here before inside the pouring rain With the world turning circles running 'round my brain I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign But it's my destiny to be the king of pain And there's a king on a throne with his eyes torn out There's a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt There's a rich man sleeping on a golden bed There's a skeleton choking on a crust of bread There's a red fox torn by a huntsman's pack There's a black-winged gull with a broken back There's a little black spot on the sun today It's the same old thing as yesterday I have stood here before inside the pouring rain With the world turning circles running 'round my brain I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign But it's my destiny to be the queen of pain Queen of pain I'll always be queen of pain I'll always be queen of pain
  11. You Oughta Know5:02

    Letra

    I want you to know, that I am happy for you I wish nothing but the best for you both An older version of me Is she perverted like me? Would she go down on you in a theater? Does she speak eloquently And would she have your baby? I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother 'Cause the love that you gave that we made Wasn't able to make it enough for you To be open wide, no And every time you speak her name Does she know how you told me You'd hold me until you died 'Til you died, but you're still alive And I'm here, to remind you Of the mess you left when you went away It's not fair, to deny me Of the cross I bear that you gave to me You, you, you oughta know You seem very well, things look peaceful I'm not quite as well, I thought you should know Did you forget about me, Mr. Duplicity? I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner It was a slap in the face How quickly I was replaced And are you thinking of me when you fuck her? 'Cause the love that you gave that we made Wasn't able to make it enough for you To be open wide, no And every time you speak her name Does she know how you told me You'd hold me until you died 'Til you died, but you're still alive And I'm here, to remind you Of the mess you left when you went away It's not fair, to deny me Of the cross I bear that you gave to me You, you, you oughta know 'Cause the joke that you laid in the bed That was me and I'm not gonna fade As soon as you close your eyes, and you know it And every time I scratch my nails Down someone else's back I hope you feel it Well, can you feel it? And I'm here, to remind you Of the mess you left when you went away It's not fair, to deny me Of the cross I bear that you gave to me You, you, you oughta know
  12. Uninvited4:37

    Letra

    Like anyone would be I am flattered by your fascination with me Like any hot-blooded woman I have simply wanted an object to crave But you, you're not allowed You're uninvited An unfortunate slight Must be strangely exciting To watch the stoic squirm Must be somewhat heartening To watch shepard meet shepard But you you're not allowed You're uninvited An unfortunate slight Like any uncharted territory I must seem greatly intriguing You speak of my love like You have experienced love like mine before But this is not allowed You're uninvited An unfortunate slight I don't think you unworthy I need a moment to deliberate.
