I just happened to be looking around the web and I ran into a video of Alanis Morissette performing a satire of The Black Eyed Peas "My Hump". I was surprised at how good it was.
Check it out.
A small software company is accusing music behemoth Sony/BMG of illegally using their product. PointDev makes windows admin software, and says a raid on Sony/BMG server reveals that close to 50% of the software they use is pirated under French law. The software's company [translated] statement was as follows..

Alanis Morissette is ready for a comeback. The singer has been recording an album that will be ready for release in Spring 2008. Morissette pursued producer Guy Sigsworth (who has produced "experimental pop" for Bjork and Madonna) after hearing a song he recorded with his own band, Frou Frou. The song was "Let Go" and Morissette claims she listened to it repeatedly, then called Sigsworth up herself. According to Billboard:

Today isn't St. Patrick's Day for me...instead, it is the 3 year anniversay of having last spoken to my dear pal Scott Zarek on the phone before he shot himself in the head on the 3rd of April. DAMN IT I MISS YOU, SCOTT! In the months immediately following your death, I contemplated suicide more than once myself, but this song (recommended to me by a caring friend) saved my life. I only wish that I could have done more to spare yours. RIP, Scott, I miss you and hope to m... MORE
Seriously. Where the dick is my copy of Unforgettable Fire?!? And why am I just noticing it's missing? All I want is to make one little mix CD. It shouldn't be this difficult.
My friend Danny made me watch this one day and I thought it was such a funny video! Alanis Morissette knows how to make this song good and not just annoying. I ment to post this song on Sunday for covers but we didn't have internet in my new house yet so you will all just have to deal with it being a day late!
Enjoy all!
The video for this unexpected cover version is pretty hilarious, but here's the audio in case you haven't heard Alanis' take on this monumentally stupid song.
The video itself may not be "genius" (per TMZ) but the dancing pimp with the belly hangin' out of his shirt sure as hell is.
