"21 Things I Want In A Lover"

[Isabella Thorne]

good gravy my dear - the new Alanis Morissette CD is released TODAY ...
"Under Rug Swept"

OMG ... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ....

and she has this song ... that tells of the 21 things she wants in a lover ... you know what? they are exactly the same 21 things i look for too .... yikes ...

Do you derive joy when someone else succeeds?
Do you not play dirty when engaged in competition?
Do you have a big intellectual capacity but know
That it alone does not equate wisdom?
Do you see everything as an illusion?
But enjoy it even though you are not of it?
Are you both masculine and feminine? politically aware?
And don't believe in capital punishment?

These are 21 things that I want in a lover
Not necessarily needs but qualities that I prefer

Do you derive joy from diving in and seeing that
Loving someone can actually feel like freedom? are you funny?
la self-deprecating? like adventure? and have many formed opinions?

These are 21 things that I want in a lover
Not necessarily needs but qualities that I prefer
I figure I can describe it since I have a choice in the matter
These are 21 things I choose to choose in a lover

I'm in no hurry I could wait forever
I'm in no rush cuz I like being solo
There are no worries and certainly no pressure in the meantime
I'll live like there's no tomorrow

Are you uninhibited in bed? more than three times a week?
Up for being experimental? are you athletic?
Are you thriving in a job that helps your brother?
are you not addicted?
...curious and communicative...

[Svedish_Chef]

Alanis.

Cherie, I will have her soon.

 

[Calamity Jane]

In another blatant display of nerdness, I was listening to 'Escape' earlier... I don't need a list of 21 things... am I too easy?

"If you like Pina Coladas
And getting caught in the rain
If you're not into yoga
If you have half a brain
If you'd like making love at midnight
In the dunes on the Cape
Then I'm the love that you've looked for
Write to me and escape."

 

[Isabella Thorne]

are you uninhibited in bed?

Alanis.

Cherie, I will have her soon.

na na na na na

_________________________
If it weren't for your maturity none of this would have happened
If you weren't so wise beyond your years I would've been able to control myself
If it weren't for my attention you wouldn't have been successful and
If it weren't for me you would never have amounted to very much

Ooh this could be messy
But you don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime

We'll fast forward to a few years later
And no one knows except the both of us
And I have honored your request for silence
And you've washed your hands clean of this

You're essentially an employee and I like you having to depend on me
You're kind of my protégé and one day you'll say you learned all you know from me
I know you depend on me like a young thing would to a guardian
I know you sexualize me like a young thing would and I think I like it

Ooh this could get messy
But you don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime

We'll fast forward to a few years later
And no one knows except the both of us
And I have honored your request for silence
And you've washed your hands clean of this

What part of our history's reinvented and under rug swept?
What part of your memory is selective and tends to forget?
What with this distance it seems so obvious?

Just make sure you don't tell on me especially to members of your family
We best keep this to ourselves and not tell any members of our inner posse
I wish I could tell the world 'cause you're such a pretty thing when you're done up properly
I might want to marry you one day if you watch that weight and keep your firm body

Ooh this could be messy and
Ooh I don't seem to mind
Ooh don't go telling everybody
And overlook this supposed crime

I loved her as God in Dogma.

 

[Isabella Thorne]

Alanis rocks my world as God ...

ohhhhhhh Chef ... i almost forgot darling ... about her role in Dogma as God ... that WAS amazing ....

that role really suited her too ... 'cause she is a very spiritual person ... actually i identify very strongly with her ... but i think you knew that already, eh?

the lyrics she writes ... well she could be talking for me .... sometimes it almost blows my mind ... lol ... no seriously .....

 

[Isabella Thorne]

OMG .... i just saw a 2 hour special on MuchMusic of Alanis Morissette ... i loved it ... she is amazing ... oh wow ... and also btw the hottest i have ever seen her look ...

she was on Intimate and Interactive... it was taped live last night ... first time ever from Vancouver ...

this new cd ... well she reveals a lot about her anger ... in the lyrics of that song i posted before .... Hands Clean ...

when she was a young teenage girl she was used sexually by this producer who had her under his wing as his protoge ...

well it is weird ... cause our paths crossed then ... i saw the two of them together then ... in a small club ... it is freaky ...

now everyone knows their little secret ... she revealed it ... she must have been 16 years old at the time ...

the interviewer <who was so cool - i loved her - and they both seemed bi> asked her if she considered it statutory rape and she said that she doesn't like to label things like that ... and that in some ways she was ready for that relationship and in some ways she was not mature enough ...

wow ... and she said revealing all this is very cleansing for her ... and the more she grows ... the more she wants to reveal of her true identity ...

i wish i could meet her ... i would tell her that i saw then what she wrote about in her song now ... "we'll fast forward to a few years later" ... i love that line ...

i love Alanis

You and me both Dizzy izzy

 

[Richard49]

Isabella Thorne thank you

It is easy to leave a lover.........

Mine of 13 years was just not here when I returned from a 2 day conference...........

For some it is much harder to tell someone what you want.....maybe this song will become that bridge.

[Ice Cold]

Yeah I can't wait for her new one either. MTV2 played a bunch of tracks the other day and it sounded great. Something about her choice of words and singing style that I like about her.

 

[Juspar Emvan]

Sorry folks, can't say I like Alanis. But the 21 things . . . I want!

 

[Isabella Thorne]

s'ok Juspar if you don't care for Alanis ... there are even many canadians who don't like her ... i know that she is not for everyone ...

hey you know what i was thinking? ... it's weird with young Canadian female singers, eh?

they seem to be prey to older men in the music business ...

not only Alanis ...

but also Celine Dion <kiss kiss> and her manager / husband Renee Angelil ...

and both these women have made it internationally too ... but Alanis dropped her deadbeat b/f as soon as she was mature enough to realize what he was doing to her ....

but, alas, our sweet little Celine <kiss kiss> was not as bright ....

IceCold ... yea well Alanis is, to me, a poet ...

<big hugs Richard darling> .... we have all been there ... although it certainly was especially brutal that your lover left you while you were away at a 2-day conference ... i am sure though that your true love is out there waiting for you ... i hope you will be together soon, cheri ...

[anneski]

21 things? Hell, as long as he's got a fast car and lets me drive it.... he he he.....

 

[Richard49]

At this point, I'd just settle for a lover

I love alanis, and dammit I'm gonna have to buy the album. I said I wasn't buying any more CD's for a couple of months too

 

[Isabella Thorne]

yes my darling Chef ... you simply must buy the new Alanis CD when it finally reaches you down under ...

you will have to if you want to compete with Canadian sales ...

Under Rug Swept reached platinum sales in Canada in only two days!!!

 

[ohiobbw]

I think the new cd is great!

I love 21 things and Hands Clean

My other favorite songs (besides the rest of the cd, because it is great) are So Unsexy and Flinch.

 

[Isabella Thorne]

ohhhhhhhhhhiobbw dear ...

have you seen the video yet for hands clean?

it is fucking amazing!!!!

she is portrayed in the video as a young girl and Chris Sarandon plays the nasty record producer ....

and the end of the video is superb - Alanis is the one washing her "hands clean" of him ... sooooo she in fact has the last say ... and dumps him ...

isn't it ironic, don't ya think?
