Alanis Morissette's Career-Defining Album Returns As It Celebrates A Major Birthday

Alanis Morissette changed the sound of top 40 radio decades ago with her album Jagged Little Pill. By the time she released the full-length, the young singer-songwriter had already found some success in Canada with a more dance-pop-oriented direction, but she decided to switch things up and venture into alternative rock.
Her third full-length, Jagged Little Pill, took over the world and has hardly faded from popularity ever since. Now, the set is back on multiple charts in the United Kingdom as fans honor its milestone birthday.
Jagged Little Pill Turns 30
Jagged Little Pill was released on June 13, 1995, which means it just turned 30 years old. To celebrate the project's anniversary, fans across the U.K. began purchasing the blockbuster in large enough numbers to bring it back to multiple tallies.
Jagged Little Pill reenters the Official Albums Sales chart at No. 75. It also returns to the Official Physical Albums list at No. 95.
Jagged Little Pill Shoots Back Into the Top 20
Morissette's classic can be found on three rankings in the U.K., but it only needed to return to two of them. Jagged Little Pill vaults from No. 92 to No. 20 on the Official Album Downloads chart. Since it sits so low on the Official Physical Albums roster, it seems clear that fans of the singer preferred to purchase the collection digitally, rather than go out to a store and pick up a CD or vinyl.
Alanis Morissette's Past No. 1
While Jagged Little Pill may sit lowest at the moment on the Official Physical Albums chart, that's the only one of the three tallies where it has previously reached No. 1. It's also the ranking where Jagged Little Pill has spent the most time, as it's now up to 225 frames — more than the length of time it spent on the other two rosters combined.
Jagged Little Pill has previously cracked the top 10 on the downloads list, peaking at No. 6, while it's only ever soared to No. 15 on the general ranking of the most-purchased sets and full-lengths throughout the U.K.

New Bonnie Blue documentary includes footage from her controversial sex stunt

It was the tabloid story of 2024 when OnlyFans creator Bonnie Blue declared that she'd slept with over 1,000 people in 12 hours. Her stunt instigated a conversation around whether 26-year-old Blue, whose real name is Tia Billinger, was carving a new path for feminism or destroying the one that had been laid out for her. 1000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story airs on Channel 4 on Tuesday 29 July at 10pm and will explore the life of Blue around the time of the stunt and in the months following. It also features behind the scenes footage from the infamous event. Press material says: 'This resulting documentary goes behind the headlines, clickbait and ragebait to discover what life's really like in Bonnie's wild orbit, how she got here and what's really going on behind those steely blue eyes. 'The film sensitively explores the central question polarising debate about her: Is she a 'dangerous predator', pandering to male fantasies and perpetuating the patriarchy? Or an empowered, sex positive, businesswoman having the last laugh?' Read more: Director Victoria Silver added: 'Bonnie Blue refuses to conform to public opinion and lives life by her own rules. At a time when factual TV is awash with retrospective stories, I wanted to capture the energy of a live and evolving story, with a woman at the heart of it who's living her life in such a bold way.' Channel 4's Commissioning Editor Tim Hancock said the documentary includes 'incredible access' to a story 'at the edges of modern morality' that will leave the audience 'questioning their own presumptions' about one of the UK's most polarising people. In June of this year, Blue announced she would be running a 'petting zoo' event with the aim of allowing 2,000 men to have sex with her. She hoped to be tied up in a glass box for the stunt, which reportedly had her banned from OnlyFans on the grounds of it violating their policy against 'extreme challenges.'

21 Popular Songs You Probably Didn't Know Are Covers Of The Original

Many people prefer certain song covers to the original, which is perfectly fine. On the other hand, there are songs that people are clueless about, even if they are song covers in the first place! Which means I can now rock out to two versions of these classics! Here are 21 songs you didn't know were actually covers: 1."1985" by Bowling for Soup is a cover of the song by American pop-punk band SR-71, which was released just two months earlier in Japan before the manager believed it was a better fit for Bowling for Soup. probably more well-known, the emotional song "Hurt" by Johnny Cash is a cover of the song performed by the rock band Nine Inch Nails. 3."Respect" by Aretha Franklin is a cover of Otis Redding's 1965 song by the same name. Franklin really flipped the lyrics on their head to create an all-time classic. 4."Renegades of Funk" by Rage Against the Machine is a cover of the Afrika Bambaataa & The Soul Sonic Force song of the same name. song "It's My Life" by No Doubt is a cover of the English band Talk Talk's original release in 1984. iconic "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Houston is a cover of the 1974 song by Dolly Parton, which was featured on her famous album "Jolene." absolute shocker to my '90s brain, but the 1997 hit song "Torn" by Australian singer Natalie Imbruglia is actually a cover originally sung by American rock band Ednaswap, which was released in 1995. popular song "Don't Cha" by The Pussycat Dolls is a cover of the original song by Tori Alamaze. popular '80s hit "Tainted Love" by Soft Cell is a cover of Gloria Jones's "Tainted Love," released in 1964. song "Superman" by R.E.M. is a cover of "Superman" by The Clique. A B-Side track on the album "White Tornado," it's an R.E.M. gem. mega summer hit from 1999 "Mambo No. 5" by Lou Bega is a sample of the original version by Cuban musician Dámaso Pérez Prado from 1950. 1992 song "Achy Breaky Heart" by Billy Ray Cyrus is a cover of "Don't Tell My Heart," which was first recorded in 1991 by The Marcy Brothers. song "If I Were A Boy" by Beyoncé was performed initially by BC Jean in 2008. song "Black Magic Woman" by Santana is a cover of the song by Fleetwood Mac. Mind blown. In my defense, the Santana version has more views on YouTube than any other version by Fleetwood Mac. 15."Blinded by the Light" by Manfred Mann's Earth Band might be the more popular version, but it was originally written and recorded by Bruce Springsteen. popular Joan Jett & the Blackhearts song "I Love Rock 'n Roll" is a cover of the British glam band Arrow's song "I Love Rock 'n 'Roll." 17."Dancing in the Moonlight" by the English band Toploader is a cover of the song originally recorded by Sherman Kelly's band, Boffalongo, which first released it in 1970. Then, Kelly rereleased the song with his new band, King Harvest, in 1972. So, technically, Kelly covered his own song. 18."Black Betty" by Ram Jam is a cover of a song credited to songwriter Huddie Ledbetter. The oldest recorded version was performed by James "Iron Head" Baker and a group of Texas prisoners in the 1930s. 19."Take Me to the River" by American rock band Talking Heads is a cover of the 1974 soul song by Al Green. 1995 hit "Gangster's Paradise" by Coolio (ft. L.V.) is actually a cover of Stevie Wonder's "Pastime Paradise" from 1976. and mainly for the youngins, Post Malone's cover of the alternative rock song "Only Wanna Be With You," originally released by Hootie & the Blowfish, is now a pop song featured in the Pokémon 25 soundtrack, which has 18M views on YouTube.
