Everything (Other Version)

Alanis Morissette · Other Songs - Alanis Morissette

I can be an asshole of the grandest kind

I can withhold like it's going out of style

I can be the moodiest baby

And you've never met anyone who is

As negative as I am sometimes



I am the wisest woman you've ever met

I am the kindest soul with whom you've connected

I have the bravest heart that you've ever seen

And you've never met anyone who is

As positive as I am sometimes



You see everything, you see every part

You see all my light, and you love my dark

You dig everything of which I'm ashamed

There's not anything to which you can't relate

And you're still here



I blame everyone else, not my own partaking

My passive aggressiveness can be devastating

I'm the most gorgeous woman that you've ever known

And you've never met anyone who is

As everything as I am sometimes



You see everything

(You see everything)

You see every part

(You see every part)

You see all my light

(You see all my light)

And you love my dark

(Love my dark)

You dig everything...

(You dig everything...)

Of which I'm ashamed

(Of which I'm ashamed)

There's not anything...

(There's not anything...)

To which you can't relate

And you're still here



What I resist persists

And speaks louder than I know

What I resist, you love

No matter how low or high I go



You see everything

You see every part

You see all my light

And you love my dark



You dig everything...

(You dig everything...)

Of which I'm ashamed

(Of which I'm ashamed)

There's not anything...

(There's not anything...)

To which you can't relate

(Which you can't relate)

And you're still here



You see everything

You see every part

And you're still here

You see all my light

Ooo...

And you love my dark

You're still here

You dig everything of which I'm ashamed

There's not anything to which you can't relate

And you're still here

Everything (Other Version)

Alanis Morissette's 'Everything (Other Version)' stands as a pivotal track from her 1998 album *Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie*, marking a significant shift in her musical direction. Departing from the raw, guitar-driven rock of her debut, this recording embraces a softer, more melodic pop sound that reflects her evolving artistic identity. The song serves as a thematic companion to the album's exploration of heartbreak and self-discovery, offering a polished alternative to the original 'Everything' while maintaining the emotional core of her work. Released during a period where Morissette sought to broaden her appeal beyond her established feminist rock persona, the track exemplifies her ability to blend personal vulnerability with accessible pop production. It remains a testament to her versatility, showcasing a side of her songwriting that prioritizes lyrical clarity and melodic beauty over aggressive instrumentation.
