It's really a shame that Alanis' Flavours of Entanglement has become the forgotten gem of this year. My first diva delivered her best album since SFIJ...and it flopped!
FUCK THE CHARTS! I love u alanis! Versions of violence makes Trent Reznor seem like a pussy! Tapes is Antony Hegarty seem like a man... Not as we is the best song to slit ones wriths too... | |

I have a soft spot for Alanis but I must admit that when I saw her at a festival this summer I wasn't too impressed! Haven't heard the album... | |

Yeah I really liked this album when it first came out. It was refreshing to hear Alanis in a different soundscape. It's a shame that her and other popular 90s era artists aren't appreciated nowadays. Due to being a late Gen-x/early Gen-y'er, the 90s will always hold a special place in my heart. Love ya Alanis. | |

What exactly happened to this album?
It sold about 200k in the US, correct? I remember she got a big boost on the charts a few months back from singing "Not As We" on The Tonight Show. "Giggling For No Reason" is my favorite cut. I love Alanis. Always will. | |

My favorite album of 2008 by a country mile, at least so far.
This album is an Alanis classic. It's one of her best albums easily, there isn't a bad song on it. I think "In Praise Of The Vulnerable Man" is my favorite, and then "Giggling Again For No Reason". I've been playing "Straitjacket" and "Tapes" a lot as well though. Even all the bonus cuts kick ass!! Madness, Bring On The Tequila and Orchid are all awesome!! |

Same here. When Aksel and I saw her at a festival, all the guys in the audience zoned out and the girls became frantic singalong animals. Well, during the older material anyways. The new material fell flat in it's ass, so I did not rush out to go and have a listen, to be honest. | |
