That's totally beside the point. She doesn't understand the words that she is using in her own songs.

wrong- she has said in interviews that she wrote it to be ironic but due to the fact that she wasnt very popular at the time she didnt pay too much attention to checking that all her examples were ironic

Wrong. You either ... ( 2 days ago by Liproll)
Wrong. You either get it - or you don´t. People who don´t understand what irony is will NEVER understand. It´s all about IQ. The ability to understand. If you are born dumb, you don´t get smart later by practicing hard.
If you have to CHECK whether your examples are ironic or not - you do not understand the concept of irony. Period.
It´s like Ed says: A song called "Ironic" written by someone who doesn´t know what irony is = Irony

I ALWAYS thought ... ( 1 day ago by symbolt)
I ALWAYS thought that the song was just about the way some people would call unfortunate events "ironic," where in fact they're just sad and calling them ironic is proof of a vaguely adolescent feigned abstract aloofness in place to cover up for those people's inability to face the facts and real feelings,and how ironic it is that these people calling these things ironic is actually ironic in itself once you see the clay feet their thinking is based on.I don't know what SHE wanted to say,though.

Still, it's a good song, and it is quite ironic. Plus she does write great lyrics. What about Coldplay? There's some serious scope for comedy in their words; The Beatles, too. Most lyrics are shit and don't mean anything; most of Alanis's are just the opposite. I guess that's why we take exception to this.
"I wrote a song for you/what a thing to do/and it was all yellow."
