Supposed produced four singles: " Thank U", " Joining You", " Unsent" and " So Pure". Her second album, Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie, was released in 1998 and debuted at number one in the Billboard 200, becoming Morissette's second consecutive number-one album and, at the time, the fastest-selling album by a female in the United States. The song was the winner in two categories at the 41st Grammy Awards. Morissette contributed to the City of Angels soundtrack, writing and performing " Uninvited". In addition, Jagged Little Pill, Live earned her another Grammy Award in 1998. Between 19 Morissette won four Grammy Awards, three MTV Video Music Awards, and seven Juno Awards.
Jagged stayed there for 12 weeks and remained in the Top 10 for a year and a half (72 weeks).
Such hits as " You Oughta Know", " Hand in My Pocket", " Ironic", and " Head over Feet" helped Morissette become the first Canadian woman to top the Billboard 200. Jagged remains one of the most successful albums in music history, holding the record as the best-selling debut album worldwide, the second best-selling album by a female artist (behind Shania Twain's Come On Over) and having sold more than 33 million copies worldwide. These albums, released only in Canada, are often not mentioned in the media, which tend to consider Jagged Little Pill (1995), released on Maverick Records, as her debut album. The label released her self-titled album (1991), which was certified platinum by the Canadian Recording Industry Association and earned her a Juno Award, and Now Is the Time (1992), which was less successful. With the stage name of Alanis, she signed a record deal with the Canadian division of MCA Records for two dance-pop albums.
She has sold more than 60 million albums worldwide. The discography of Alanis Morissette, a Canadian-American singer-songwriter, comprises nine studio albums, three live albums, six compilation albums, two extended plays, 43 singles, twelve promotional singles, six video albums, and 33 music videos. Since 2020, she hosted Alanis Radio on Apple Music Hits.Morissette performing at Saban Theater in Beverly Hills, California, May 19, 2014 Its success only confirms what her diehard fans already knew: her catalogue, with all its raw emotion and vocal triumphs, has eternal, universal appeal. In 2018, she and screenwriter Diablo Cody debuted their hit musical, also called You Oughta Know, in which characters from all walks of life sing, holler and wail songs from Morissette's body of work, raising their voices as they follow along on her life-long search for meaning and love. A smouldering candour has defined her career since then, with songs like the ghostly "Uninvited", the forthright "Hands Clean" and the sparkling "Guardian" offering catharsis and pop bliss in tandem. Blending the rage that fuelled alt-rock's early-'90s rise with unflinching lyrics and a keen pop sensibility, 1995's Jagged Little Pill quickly became a worldwide phenomenon thanks to singles like the blistering "You Oughta Know" and the playfully yearning "Ironic". Her debut album, 1991's dance-pop Alanis, sold well in Canada and garnered her Juno nominations, but it was her third album that caused the rest of the world to take notice. Born in 1974, Morissette grew up in Germany and Canada, acting on Nickelodeon’s You Can't Do That on Television and writing her own songs. Alanis Morissette's searing voice is only matched in potency by her lyrics' brutal honesty-and the two combined have made her one of pop's leading truth-tellers about love and the human condition.
