Alanis Morissette - Thank U (Official Video)

The older I get, the more profound and meaningful the lyrics become. When you’re young you hear the music, when you’re older you hear the words. Thank you!

She was 23 years old when she wrote this. Speechless.

January 1999, this song , a seed was planted for me to get sober! That day came in October of 2002. Thank YOU, Alanis!💓🇨🇦😎

I don't think we were ready for Alanis in the 90s.

Being naked can symbolize shedding pretenses and being one's authentic self expressing a willingness to be emotionally exposed, to let go of defenses, and to appreciate the genuine moments in life.

Even as a kid, deep down, I know she was awesome. I'm now a 38 year old man and I listen to this and reminds me of the great time I lived through, the 90's

A masterpiece, a history.

I am now 65 and this song is still as moving and powerful as it felt when it came out so many years ago. Great artist

When I was a kid I used to hate this video. Now I realize it's the perfect metaphor for enlightenment. You walk through life completely vulnerable and exposed, but never afraid or weak because a sense of wisdom, strength, and inner peace stays with you. Every now and then a fellow compassionate soul reaches out to you with love and affirmation, and in that moment it means more than all the supposed promised love of paradise.

I love this song because it reminds me of how it feels to emerge from trauma and horror, blinking in the random sunlight, uncertain of why you're even there and if you deserve it. You deserve the sunlight. You deserve the chance to become something fresh and new. Thank you Alanis, for reminding us all of that

My Dad died in Feb. 1990 at the age of 58. My Mom just passed this August, 3 days before my Birthday. This song reminds me so much of following in Dad's footsteps. Every Christmas he invited anyone who was alone to join our family for a Christmas dinner. After he passed and Mom moved, I called it "The Lonely Hearts Dinner"....Every Christmas night Open House and played Counting Crows. This year, I am just hoping for 2024 to be better than last year. Thankfully, my friends, nephew and his wife got me through a rough December. Love to all....may we all have a better year and continue to listen to CC's incredible music, year after year. XO

Who's still jamming to this big tune in 2024?

Don't worry......You're not the only one who's listening to this masterpiece in July 2021 !!!!! UPD: September 2021 UPD2: November 2021 UPD3: December 2021 UPD4: February 2022 UPD 5: March 2024

She was ahead of her time for sure. What a gift her music is

I am a die hard heavy metal fan but this is one of my all time favourite songs !!!!!!!!! Love it and love Alanis!!!!!

The raw emotional power of her voice is literally unrivaled. She conveys a sense of vulnerability that is So fragile yet so resilient. I can't think of another female singer whose vocals affect me as deeply as her. What a gift to be able to listen to her music 💜🎶

At 38 years old the lyrics finally hit me in the heart and I totally understood it. I couldn't stop crying

The older you become this song some how has an even deeper meaning...

her music is a true blessing that the human race will forever now have. Thank you, Alanis

This song is a prayer for me. I listen to it everyday. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
