| Alanis Morissette – Front Row Lyrics | 1 year ago |
| This song is about Kevin Smith, director of the movie Dogma, in which Alanis plays God in her first major role as an actress. They were mostly friends, but their friendship briefly became romantic right before Alanis started writing and recording "Supposed former infatuation junkie." These are some of the lyrics that clearly refer to Alanis' relationship with Kevin. "I can't love you because we are supposed to have professional boundaries": there is definitely attraction between the two, but they are working on a movie together, so they have to keep things professional. "You were kissed by God full on the lips": Alanis plays God in the movie, so this line is almost a joke about her character. "You smoke, you live in New Jersey": this lyric clearly gives away that this song is about Kevin Smith, who is from Red Bank, New Jersey. Also, Kevin famously became an avid smoker while filming the movie Clerks in 1994 and quit smoking only in 2008. "You started saying things like you belong to the world": this is Kevin talking to Alanis and acknowledging the fact that she was a worldwide superstar after the success of Jagged Little Pill. "Come here let me clip your wings!": Alanis/God wears wings in the movie and this is obviously Kevin talking to her while they're filming. "Raise the roof, he yelled, yeah raise the roof, I yelled back": this line refers to Kevin directing Alanis in the scene during which she lets out a huge scream. | |
