Music Video(s) Of The Day: The Best Of Alanis

Well, folks. This is my last video of the day post. As Chuck told you a bit ago, I'm leaving Chicagoist. I'm moving on to work for Organizing For Action. It's always hard to say goodbye. As with any breakup, I turn to Alanis Morissette to help me through.

This song is for all the posts I've left unwritten: "Unsent"

"You Oughta Know" that sometimes the commenters made me angry...

But "You Learn" to ignore them.

And take solace in the "Precious Illusions" that the readers might be more interested in your take on the school closings than they are in the latest cute baby animal.

But I had "One Hand In My Pocket" and the other one is trying not to throw my laptop out the window when the CMS breaks.

Isn't it ironic? I honestly don't know because this song forever muddled our nation's understanding of the term.

I don't have a clever introduction to this one. It's just my favorite Alanis song.
