Canadian Alanis Morissette’s ninth studio album is carried by Smiling, a song written for the Broadway adaption of her third album, released in 1995 (Jagged Little Pill). The track appears in the first act when Mary Jane Healy (the mother of a modest family in Connecticut) demonstrates the contradiction between the pressures of maternity and the “obligation” to appear strong in the face of all circumstances. The paradoxical thoughts which trouble Morrisette are communicated through a mix of comforting, soft music and energetic rock in songs cowritten with Michael Farrell. The album could pass as a piano and voice ode to the socially engaged song (Diagnosis discusses post-breakup depression). In this category is the very lyrical Reckoning which calls for the end of the patriarchy all while evoking the betrayal of her old manager. Alongside these grave subjects, in chiaroscuro, is Ablaze, a simple yet radiant song dedicated to her three children. Yet Reasons I Drink marks a hard return to reality as she sings with disconcerting sincerity of her drinking addiction. The striking of piano chords alongside the vigorous rhythmic section evokes the determination of a soldier fighting one’s demons. The album as a whole is in the image of this last song: Alanis Morissette offers us a profound and complex introspection delivered with infallible sincerity. A glimmer of hope despite its dark appearance. © Nicolas Magenham/Qobuz
