I am not a huge pop fan, but I have to tell you I enjoyed Alanis' music better before her cheeks sunk in.

Obviously "Too Hot" is her song, and she can do what she want's with it, but it was originally a fun up-tempo toon, and when you hear her revised version you wonder "Who the fuck died?".
 
I feel that her tempo change on the piece is commentary.

She's now singing about the topic from the perspective of a woman 20 years older, and a lot more mature, on what the song was about. The tempo change reflects that attitude shift. It shifts the songs message a good deal. And in an interesting way.

So the more mature you get the less fun your music should be? I guess that's why allot of newer stuff put out by older bands doesn't sell. Or as Homer Simpson once said to Bachman Turner Overdrive, "No new crap, just sing Taking Care of Business!". I think she just resents her Pop roots, an is embarrassed by the song. Note how she said "This song deserves no introduction."?

If being Negative=Mature then I'd be the most mature person on the forum, and I know that can't be right. (LOL)

Maturity and creativity, are two separate fields.
 
I really miss when you could make "Isn't it ironic?" jokes. That was a sadly short window of time.
