Canadian-born ALANIS MORISSETTE is back with her first studio album in 4 years. Flavors of Entanglement, released this week, comes days after her 34th Birthday. Morissette is best known for the bitter post breakup song "You Oughta Know" from her widely acclaimed 3rd album Jagged Little Pill. While the song won the 1996 Grammy winner for Best Rock Song, most of the hype surrounding the song involved the mystery man Alanis was bashing in the song, directed at an ex who left for another woman.
The new album falls along the same track of Jagged Little Pill as it is largely reflective of a broken relationship. But, this time there's no mystery as to who she may be crooning about. Morissette revealed to ET that her breakup with RYAN REYNOLDS is the subject of some of the songs on the album. Her ex-fiance is now engaged to SCARLETT JOHANSSON. While not as angry as Jagged Little Pill, Flavors of Entanglement speaks to disappointment, longing and starting over. Songs like "Straitjacket" and "Moratorium" decry the hurt that Alanis may still be enduring in her most recent love loss. But, she tells Newsweek she's "really happy for him."
