Canadian singer/songwriter ALANIS MORISSETTE (now 51) topped the US Charts
with her 3rd album JAGGED LITTLE PILL on 7 October 1995, 30 years ago today.
It peaked at #5 in the UK.

The album went on to sell over 30 million copies worldwide and won
five Grammy Awards. It was co-written and produced by Glenn Ballard.

Los Angeles Times said: “She explores extreme emotional games.
She’s a fresh talent, somewhere between, say, Sinéad O’Connor and
Liz Phair, who’s determined to let her feelings out, whether with
a snarl or a smile.”
