Alanis Morissette Covers Black Eyed Peas

Will Ferrell's take is probably funnier. But nothing beats Alanis saying "ass." (via P4K)

it would've been better if she'd just recorded the song (a year ago) and not released the video...it's a bit embarassing. i'll always be fond of her, anywhow. oh, alanis...

How anyone could have a problem with this and NOT find it hilarious... well, you're fucking morons. Please buy a ticket to the moon and eject yourself off into space.

My respect for Alanis just went back up.

And quit your "slow news day?" whinings. Good grief, the internet breeds bitches.

This is interesting, I would love to see Aretha Franklin do this song.

Play this for your friends and see how long it takes for them to recognize the song.
Yeah, then they'll be hooked!

Very mid-nineties, Tori Amosesque and only mildly entertaining. But I still have mad love for Alanis...

Strangely, it reminds me of Tori's cover of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" from the Crucify single.

I mean, I suspected the lyrics were that bad, but only Alanis could bring the words to life.

Awesome cover. Cracked me up.

'Oh c'mon Stereogum, do better, blah blah.'

Don't take yourselves so seriously. You are complaining about content on a free blog. Funny content at that.

Nothing will be funnier if Clap Your Hands Say Yeah covered that song. It will also be sad at the same time.

The Youtube comments really show how many people don't get that this is a joke and think that the BEP version is better. Unbelievable.
