Ironic biography, Ironic discography
"Ironic" is a song written by Alanis Morissette and Glen Ballard, and produced by Ballard for Morissette's third album Jagged Little Pill (1995).Lyrically, it comprises a series of vignettes describing situations, each ending in the question "Isn't it ironic?"It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic..."It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful husband"
She first sang the line at the fifteenth annual GLAAD Media Awards in March 2004."Ironic", which contains a reference to a plane crash, was on the list of songs deemed inappropriate by Clear Channel following the September 11, 2001 attacks, and subsequently left off of the set list during her 2002 tour.Look up ironic in
Wiktionary, the free dictionary.The song's usage of the word "ironic" attracted attention for what many feel is an improper application of the term."Ironic" which ultimately contains no irony, an interpretation that Morissette herself has supported.An analysis of the ironic lack of irony in "Ironic" by Irish comedian Ed Byrne includes:
"There's nothing ironic about being stuck in a traffic jam when you're late for something.Unless you're a town planner.If you were a town planner and you were late for a seminar of town planners at which you were giving a talk on how you solved the problem of traffic congestion in your area, couldn't get to it because you got stuck in a traffic jam, that'd be well ironic.""Rain on your wedding day is ironic only if marrying a weatherman and he set the date."Mo Rocca commented in the broadcast, "Irony is the disparity between what you expect will happen and what does happen.So raining on your wedding day isn't ironic; it's just crappy.It would have been ironic if she had lived in a place like Seattle and traveled to the desert of Mexico for a wedding, and it ended up raining there, but not in Seattle.Alanis always gets the last laugh though.We all sit here, saying her song isn't ironic, but in fact, that's pretty ironic that she wrote a song called 'Ironic' that wasn't really ironic.One sample: "It's like meeting the girl of your dreams and finding out she's five."Alanis' thoughts on Ironic
Morissette herself does in fact acknowledge that "Ironic" is not filled with ironies and this in itself is what makes it (in her opinion) ironic.It should be noted that the naming of the song 'Ironic' is not a malapropism, which is again, (perhaps) quite ironic.And when Glen and I were writing it, we definitely were not doggedly making sure that everything was technically ironic.Commercial release
Because "Ironic" was Morissette's first single to be given a commercial release in the United States, it was eligible to appear on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and reached number four; as of 2008, it is her highest peaking single there.Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart and her first on the Top 40 Mainstream chart, as well as receiving regular recurrent rotation on Adult Top 40 radio stations.It reached the top ten in Germany and peaked just outside the top ten in the United Kingdom, becoming Morissette's first top twenty hit there.Sednaoui and features Morissette driving a black Lincoln Continental Mark V.Morissette portrays the other two passengers: one in a yellow sweater with braided hair, also in the back seat; and the other in a red sweater in the front passenger seat.At the end of the video, Morissette (the driver) exits her car after it stalls, but her passengers are nowhere to be seen.Short Form" category, but lost to The Beatles' "Free as a Bird" and for "Record of the Year", losing to Eric Clapton's "Change The World."The verses appeared in light blue, and the chorus appeared in green.The musical notes that usually accompany song lyrics or background music appeared in purple.In late 1996 a parody version of the video was released, and starred a young girl (named Allison Rheaume) who mimicked Morissette's actions and wardrobe while lip syncing to the original song.At the end, a man notices her in the car and tells her to stop fooling around.This version of the video received mild airplay as a novelty on VH1 and was, for a time, the only video for "Ironic" available for viewing in Yahoo!"Politics in play at gay awards"."Ironic", in Swiss, French, Dutch, Belgian (Flanders and Wallonia), Swedish, Norwegian, Australian and New Zealander Singles Chart Lescharts.External links

It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
And isn't it ironic...It's like rain on your wedding day

He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought

It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife

Cockeyed.Alamo actually have an answer when jokesters ask where the basement is.Many large corporations have philanthropy departments.Siemens, though its hearing aid division, has funded musicians through its artists in residence program, culminating in live performances in New York City.So what are the most underrated blogs that you read?Who are the bloggers whose blogs most reflect their personal creative vision?Animation Backgrounds:
Musician Rob Richards has a hobby.He digitally removes the animation cells from cartoons, revealing the background art beneath.The New York Public Library:
Yes, the library has a blog.So ultimately I decided to just use different fonts and weights to write their names (seen at the top of this post).And then when you buy the set, you get the matching measuring cups included.Note: I think you need to be signed in to Google to see the preview.But I have a particular appreciation for the little overpasses.We pass them and immediately forget about them.Well, this week strikes me as a good time to share some overpass photos from my travels, so here are a few images.Amazon, Netflix, etc) are pretty good at guessing what movies you might like based on your movie history.And they need your help.Jay and Andy have created a game called Video Store Clerk in which you play a video store clerk.You are told how a real customer has rated previous movie rentals, and then you are shown another movie title that the person also rented.Can you guess how the customer rated that movie?The question is whether or not the wisdom of crowds can beat the computer.To gather enough data for an accurate comparison, they need a lot of people to play.But what about tactile feedback?When I drive, my hands are already on the steering wheel, so why not take advantage of that to let me feel when a car is approaching in my blind spot?Likewise for the left side.Method 1: Placing one hand on each side of the frame, use the fingertips or midfingers of both hands in concert to raise the glasses into a comfortable position.Celebrity who uses Method 1: Actress Tina Fey
Method 2: Using the fingers of just one hand, grab the frame front securely on one side and push the glasses up into a comfortable position.Celebrity who uses Method 2: Magician Penn Jillette
Method 3: Using just one finger, press upward on the bridge of the frame, raising the glasses into a comfortable position.Celebrity who uses Method 4: Pavel in the comments below
I think method 2 is the inferior method, because it raises the glasses unevenly and could cause strain on the end pieces or hinges.But surely there is a university out there looking for some useless research to do, right?San Francisco a few years back.Never Gonna Give You Up.Then someone leaves this comment:
Hey, everyone.YouTube so everyone can watch it.Did you click on the link?Southern hemisphere they run backwards.And yet, we all would love to be able to tell the time by looking at shadows, right?In the model illustrated above, the light sources are each attached to a ring which rotates around the pole.The evil forces of Cobra are parachuting down to ruin everything!Who is that watching from the torch?So Crazy It Just Might Work.Andy Baio will serve as moderator, as eight creative people each take turns pitching their worst possible website ideas to venture capitalist David Hornik, who would probably be crazy to provide funding for any of our proposals.These artists see the trials for us, and often their artwork is our only glimpse into the proceedings.Is courtroom sketching a full time job?Are these people fine artists or commercial artists?There are many more talented artists in courtrooms than just the seven I contacted, and I present them in no particular order.MONA SHAFER EDWARDS
