Music review: Alanis Morissette - You Learn
Artist: Alanis Morissette Album: Jagged Little Pill Release date: 6/13/95 Video link: Via YouTube
Lyrics: 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 clear
You live you learn You love you learn You cry you learn You lose you learn You bleed you learn You scream you learn
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 About the song: When most people think of Alanis Morissette, the think of the angst-ridden song You Oughta Know. Amazingly, You Learn is on the same album. This song is about taking a chance in life, learning from your mistakes and growing as a person. It's a wonderful inspirational song and it's just one of the reasons I love this entire album.
