Such Pretty Forks in the Road by Alanis Morissette
Such Pretty Forks in the Road is an album by Alanis Morissette, released in 2020. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 7 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Reasons I Drink”, on 7 lists with a best position of #32.
Such Pretty Forks in the Road, Alanis Morissette's ninth studio album, arrived in 2020, her first new record in eight years, since Havoc and Bright Lights in 2012. Alex Hope and Catherine Marks produced it, and it finds the woman once crowned the Queen of Alt-Rock Angst older, steadier and still spilling her guts, that mezzo-soprano now wrapped in a warmer, more patient pop rock.
The confessional streak that made Jagged Little Pill a phenomenon hasn't gone anywhere; it just sounds less like a scream now and more like a long, honest talk. "Reasons I Drink" was a single and the song that caught on with the countdowns, and "Smiling", written for the Jagged Little Pill stage musical, opens the album and gave it its title. It topped the US Top Rock Albums chart, and at the 2021 Juno Awards it took Adult Contemporary Album of the Year.
