iTunes Music Review - Jagged Little Pill (Acoustic) (3 out of 5)

  • Jagged Little Pill (Acoustic)

    • Ten years after the original release, comes the traditional celebratory acoustic re-recording. The album has held up remarkably well. While it is not as meaningful to me as it was when I was sixteen, I think it has (with the exception of the forever-grating "Ironic") aged gracefully. The acoustic recording allows her to be gentler sounding, with the same aggressive message. Try "You Oughta Know" and compare the original to the acoustic version. - Darla Sasaki

     

    Darla began playing the piano when she was eight. But she's lazy, so she switched to the clarinet in order to read only one line of music at a time. She then expanded to the alto and soprano sax to spice up her woodwind life. Meanwhile, she listens to everything from The Beach Boys to Boulderdash (which, if not interpreted alphabetically, is a lot of music, but is otherwise only the groups between "be-" and "bo-"). She places full blame on her friends for her eclectic tastes. In an ideal world, she would want an easy way to describe the music she loves, mix tapes would still be a hot hobby, and the RIAA would get over themselves.
