Alanis Morissette ‘My Humps’ Video

The much-discussed Alanis Morissette “My Humps” video:

As to the discussion, which I’ll leave to others since I’m barely familiar with the genre:
Julian Sanchez:
Alanis Morissette parody of the execrable, inexplicably popular Black Eyed Peas abortion “My Humps.” But the spoof nevertheless deserves an extra nod for managing to simultaneously be hilarious as a satire of both Fergie’s and Morissette’s own styles and (just to twist the knife) actually a substantially better piece of music than the tuneless original, low a bar though that admittedly is.

Ezra Klein gives it a “Wow” and snarks, “Alanis Morissette covers Black Eyed Peas ‘My Humps.’ Life? You are now complete.”
Matthew Yglesias is more concise: “Simply astounding. Is that even really Alanis?”
