Video: Alanis covers “My Humps”

I’m a week late in posting this and probably wouldn’t have posted it at all if not for the fact that the boss mentioned this weekend how brilliant she thought it was. MM detects a critique here from the right about the absurdity and grotesqueness of some of the conventions of hip hop. I don’t see it myself; rather, I think this is the latest case of a “sensitive” white artist lampooning their own image by covering an aggressively insensitive rap or hip hop standard. The most famous examples are probably Nina Gordon’s version of “Straight Outta Compton” and Ben Folds’s take on an Eazy E song that I can’t even name on this site. (The Obadiah Parker cover of “Hey Ya” doesn’t count because it’s heartfelt.) I feel obliged to provide links, but the lyrics to both are corrosively profane. Bearing in mind, then, your official strong content warning, you’ll find Gordon’s song here and Folds’s here.
And here’s Alanis, preceded by the BEP original for comparison. Both of them are unwatchable/unlistenable after about 30 seconds.
Update: John from Verum Serum says there’s certainly a comment here about objectification. Fair enough; I’ll grant the boss that, although in Alanis’s case I suspect it’s a feminist critique, not a socially conservative one. Which isn’t to say the two are mutually exclusive, just that they usually are.
Exit question: Is this really just traditional feminism snarking on sex-positive feminism?
Update: Actually, Alanis has always been rather sex-positive. So, revised exit question: Is this really just sex-positive feminism snarking on corruption of same?

this is so old, even ace wouldn’t put it on his site.
it is funny though :P
lorien1973 on April 9, 2007 at 10:39 PM
It’s like a week old!
Allahpundit on April 9, 2007 at 10:42 PM
EDIT – took me 2 times to get what alanis was doing here. I think, its obvious (now) that she’s making the point about how ludicrious (sp?) the original song is. the only reason its popular, is because of the beat. put any lyrics in the original or no lyrics at all, and the song doesnt change. switch it around, remove the beat, and the song is god awful.
lorien1973 on April 9, 2007 at 10:43 PM
that’s like a year online!
Ace had this on the 3rd.

Face it, AP, you are just behind the times ;)
lorien1973 on April 9, 2007 at 10:49 PM
I’m telling you it’s a week old.
Allahpundit on April 9, 2007 at 10:53 PM
Well, I hadn’t seen it. It was good for a laugh. I’m glad that she wasn’t naked.
Savage on April 9, 2007 at 10:53 PM
You got that right.
Egad.
Slublog on April 9, 2007 at 10:56 PM
It’s really an internets classic now, so it’s good that you posted it.
I agree with MM, Morissette is really trashing the whore-as-role model mentality of hip hop.
and the decline of pop music standards.
billy on April 9, 2007 at 10:59 PM
Weird Al Yankovich did it better … his video is watchable – all the way through.
naliaka on April 9, 2007 at 11:01 PM
If I’ve said it once I’ve said it a hundred times. Fergie and the Pussycat Dolls are going to get us all killed. Dinesh D’souza’s book The Enemy at Home makes the case better than I ever could. What the Jihadis really want is to kill liberals infecting their societies with the crap we’ve learned to tolerate. My Humps to them is crazier than a burka is to us…says alot. I used to be a big Alanis fan. Now I’ve become anti-entertainment. Except for Southpark and Dogfights, (history channel, Fri night.)
Buck Turgidson on April 9, 2007 at 11:03 PM
Yep…this is actually worse than old.
In fact, the definition of “old” is when Ace posts a topic on his site.
Posts on a topic that follow Ace’s?
Positively ancient!
Jack M. on April 9, 2007 at 11:05 PM
What’s his called?
lorien1973 on April 9, 2007 at 11:06 PM
It’s a statement about objectification. With Madonna a mom and Britney a nutcase, Fergie is probably the foremost example of that sort of thing these days.
I support the sentiment, but I still think Velvet is a really good song.
John on April 9, 2007 at 11:06 PM
Just shows you how programmed today’s music. Push the “Alanis” button after loading a “My Humps” chip and you get the exact crap you would expect.
pedestrian on April 9, 2007 at 11:09 PM
Actually, Alanis did send it up pretty well. Music videos are so pretentious, it doesn’t take much to show how stupid the pathetic grinding is that makes up too much of the music video norm these days.
naliaka on April 9, 2007 at 11:11 PM
Both of them are unwatchable/unlistenable after about 30 seconds.
CliffHanger on April 9, 2007 at 11:20 PM
Well now she can cover my heaves. Both vids were grossly unwatchable. Admittedly, not a fan. To me, it’s just a white girl trying to be all street for the kids.
thedecider on April 9, 2007 at 11:23 PM
Both of these vids just make me want to cringe.
If it ain’t Classic Rock or Country, it just ain’t real music.
Hmm, think I’ll play some ZZ Top on the Video Player just to cleanse my ears…

forged rite on April 9, 2007 at 11:26 PM
I think Alanis’ cover points out the absurdity of modern popular music.
“My Humps” is a terrible song and will not have the staying power of anything by The Beatles, the Rolling Stones or even one-hit wonder Katrina and the Waves. Pop music has become disposable – something to be enjoyed for a few days or months. There’s no artistry to it anymore – just marketing and noise.
Sure, that statement makes me sound like a geezer-in-training, but customers around the world seem to be voting with their wallets.
Slublog on April 9, 2007 at 11:28 PM
I still think this song is the best rap parody though, because it’s true.
forged rite on April 9, 2007 at 11:29 PM
Please, please, Lorien: It’s simply uncouth to chastise Allah by invoking Ace. You are merely hurting people’s feelings with such invidious comparisons. If Allah’s blogging is stale and lame, just say so, and be done with it. No need to drag Ace into this.
Ali-Bubba on April 9, 2007 at 11:31 PM
That mocks a different song though.
lorien1973 on April 9, 2007 at 11:32 PM
By the way, all the hot chicks like Ace, because he totally rocks!
Ali-Bubba on April 9, 2007 at 11:33 PM
Um, thanks.
Allahpundit on April 9, 2007 at 11:36 PM
Can’t you tell we missed you this weekend, AP? ;) Gotta get 3 days of teasing out in one evening. It’s a good thing! If we didn’t care, we wouldn’t joke :P
lorien1973 on April 9, 2007 at 11:38 PM
What the Jihadis really want is to kill liberals infecting their societies with the crap we’ve learned to tolerate.
Yes, perhaps they’ll stop committing ritual murder and suicide if we just stop tolerating schoolkids in Beslan and Buddhist monks in Thailand. Good plan.
sandberg on April 9, 2007 at 11:42 PM
Dynamite Hack has the best rap parody.
EnochCain on April 9, 2007 at 11:46 PM
Is that a week old after Aces old posting or is it just a week old?..heh
I think the first video rocks with some great beats.I didnt want the grandkids to view this video because of the ho connotation but I like the music.
It doesnt have to be country to be good music however,I listen to all genre of music from Chopin to Hard House Techno.Alanis’ video is a stark reminder how far down hip hop has plunged.It aint your momma’s Motown sound for sure.The lyrics to “Humps” sucks all the way up to the hair folicles.
spazzmomma on April 9, 2007 at 11:46 PM
By the way,missed you AP.Thought I would let you know that before some sensitive trys to punch me in the throat for jus pickin chickin.Glad your back.
spazzmomma on April 9, 2007 at 11:49 PM
Thanks Enoch, i was trying to remember their name but couldn’t. Youre right, it’s a classic. Here it is for those who are interested, with a language warning.
forged rite on April 9, 2007 at 11:53 PM
People, people. Direct all snark about tardiness to The Boss. Moi. Not your faithful Allah.
We were shooting the breeze over the weekend and I mentioned the Alanis video. Allah always aims to please. So, voila: A “My Humps” post. Okay, it’s a week old, but IMO still worth kicking around here.
I told the big A I didn’t think Irving Kristol could do a better job of exposing the vulgarity, misogyny, and mind-numbing idiocy of the original My Humps “lyrics” than Alanis has with her cover. She used her talent and humor to convey in three minutes what many social conservatives have spent thousands of words trying to convey in their critiques of trashy pop culture.
And, yes, in this case feminist critics and social conservative critics can come together in their mutual dislike of a talentless writher like Fergie.
She gives us all a bad name.
Michelle on April 9, 2007 at 11:54 PM
Well, I saw this last week and was unimpressed with it, not having even the smallest clue about the original and so not getting the joke. Even though it was awful I kept watching it until the end assuming there was an at least semi-obvious point. Now that I see the original I guess it’s moderately humorous, but hardly cutting-edge satire.
I guess I’m just not hip enough to be entertained by these things.
Bob's Kid on April 9, 2007 at 11:58 PM
Yeah, they converge here. And I’d be inclined to agree that it’s from the feminist angle and not the social con’s. But then, It’s coming from God. At least according to Kevin Smith. Who saw Salma Hayek as a worthy muse.
OK, I’m thoroughly confused.
Pablo on April 10, 2007 at 12:00 AM
And the boys in BEP don’t do much for those of us on the other side of the equation. Worst song ever, IMHO.
Pablo on April 10, 2007 at 12:03 AM
Anytime, AP. I’m here for you, man.
Ali-Bubba on April 10, 2007 at 12:04 AM
Friedrich Hayek is a worthy muse. Salma’s just hot. But hot is good, too.
Ali-Bubba on April 10, 2007 at 12:07 AM
That killed the snark in a hurry, didn’t it?
Commenters were smacking Allah around like Fredo Corleone …. and if you take the analogy a little further, I guess that means Ace is Mo Green. Or maybe Barzini.
Ali-Bubba on April 10, 2007 at 12:17 AM
Dude…
Jaibones on April 10, 2007 at 12:20 AM
Boss, we just love giving The Pundit a hard time. Jeez Allah, had to go and tell The Boss on us.

(Sorry, no real thoughts tonight, so I’m stealing/snarking everyone else’s. Hey, Shelley.)
Jaibones on April 10, 2007 at 12:25 AM
We’ve gone from “I Wanna Hold Your Hand” to this. I hope my newborn daughter sets her sights higher than this.
Mojave Mark on April 10, 2007 at 12:33 AM
I don’t know how you got to Beslan from the pussycat dolls, so I’ll try to be more clear. Most people in this thread agree overt sexualization as entertainment is bad for society. Put another way, It’s all fun and games till your (or my) daughter turns up on Girls gone Wild. We have taken it too far and are paying the price for it,(in society). On this point the Mullas would agree. They, of course take things too far the other direction. They’re not automatically wrong on everything just because they’re the enemy. I’m not some liberal wondering,”why do they hate us?” I want to understand everything about how the enemy thinks; not just dismiss them as insane ragheads. In 1794 Gen.”Mad Anthony” Wayne defeated the Shawnees by understanding all he could about them. Gen’s Harmer and St.Clair got crushed because they thought they were nothing more than stone-age savages. D’souza’s book referenced above is that look inside their head. I’m telling you, yes they’re evil, but they’re not as crazy as we automatically think.
Buck Turgidson on April 10, 2007 at 12:48 AM
True, but HA posters also proved with the Dynamite Hack cover of “Boyz In Da Hood” that Alanis isn’t the first to use humor as a spotlight on the ugly warts of rap.
Funny, but I had a weekly cable TV show in Austin a few years ago and wrote segments called “The Poetry of Gene Simmons” where our friend Corby would sit in front of a bookcase while reading the lyrics to such KISS classics as “Rock N’ Roll All Night,” “Plaster Caster,” and “Domino” in a George Plimpton voice.
One night an old timer at the TV station who’d never heard of KISS mentioned to me that Steve Allen did almost the exact same segment 30 years earlier to the lyrics of Elvis songs…
Oh, the heart-ache!
ScottMcC on April 10, 2007 at 12:52 AM
Not “Beth”?
Rick on April 10, 2007 at 12:57 AM
That’s is touching.
I don’t know where I stand on liberating the society sexually. The liberation have led to a lot of things like people choosing the right course: becoming gay. By the way,I love watching humps. I can’t help it. This new video is not different from the original, but there is only one woman who dances poorly. Her butt-dancing did not send shockwaves to some people brains. They probably said to themselves,”I can handle one hump.” Critizing pop culture would be difficult if you don’t start from Freud who wanted to liberate our repressed sexual feelings. Psychologists and anthropologists have spent time studying these repressed sexual feelings. More, they have even tied it to the problem of the society. As of now, the liberation is taking place in terms of increased rapes, pornography,e.t.c
Ouabam on April 10, 2007 at 1:18 AM
If it makes you feel better about it AP, I just found out about the video earlier today.
Still, it was before you posted it, though.
frankj on April 10, 2007 at 1:19 AM
Hard to believe that was Alanis – she actually looks really hot in that video.
Ken McCracken on April 10, 2007 at 1:33 AM
So……….. If Senator Robert Bryd called this a display being a “White Nigger”, what would Hillary Clinton say?
PinkyBigglesworth on April 10, 2007 at 1:34 AM
Some things are too stupid and boring to even be worth parody. Unfortunately, that describes almost the entire music industry today. I feel so sorry for the young people growing up with this aural vacuum as the soundtrack of their youth.
Halley on April 10, 2007 at 1:38 AM
I thought all rap was parody. Do you mean they’re serious?!?!?!
Doghouse on April 10, 2007 at 1:41 AM
Fergie!
Ian on April 10, 2007 at 1:49 AM
Welcome back, Allah.
I think you’re right about this being a feminist critique. After all, Alanis did play god in Dogma. But, yeah, feminist and conservative critiques can probably coincide on this one.
Fergie makes the Spice Girls look wholesome.
John on April 10, 2007 at 2:20 AM
Dude! This is worse than Shakira singing in English.

MirCat on April 10, 2007 at 2:54 AM
I agree with MM. Alanis did a better job than any of us have tried to do. At the risk of sounding like an old man, (of which I know longer care), I hate today’s music. You dang kids don’t know what’s good!
Joshua P. Allem on April 10, 2007 at 3:03 AM
The wonders of make up, lighting, etc. Prepare yourself for Fergie unplugged.
billy on April 10, 2007 at 3:27 AM
The only version or “My Humps” that I like is the animated version that satirizes Hillary Clinton called “My Trunk”. You had it up last year, and with the lyrics, er, um, “adjusted” to suit the Clintons, it generate a really belly laugh from me.
I think that Morissette was wickedly satirical in this version. If the point is that hiphop is trashy, she proved it.
BTW, you may remember Morissette singing “Let’s Do It, Let’s Fall In Love” from the movie about Cole Porter, De-Lovely. It was the best version of the tune that I’ve ever heard, combining her powerful singing voice with Porter’s musical style.
As to “Hey-Ya,” I came across this remade music video version from the “Sun Kings,” VAW-116, on YouTube who are deployed aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72). Clearly, Lincoln’s CO, the CAG and the squardron CO have a sense of humor.
Either that, or those stories I hear from Marines and soldiers (who are probably just jealous, I know) about Carrier deployments being nice, restful, 6 month or longer, vaction cruises are true. I hear that even the Air Force, living in those 5-star hotels, is jealous!
Personally, I think that greenshirts have more fun. ;^)
georgej on April 10, 2007 at 4:04 AM
That stunk, that stunk, oh yeah, that stunk.
Nursery rhymes?
Kini on April 10, 2007 at 4:21 AM
Actually, I’m guessing this was the result of some sort of horrible bar bet, where Alanis Morrisette was dared to make an even more horrible version of the worst song ever made. Whoever lost that bet must be doing unspeakable things with a goat and some midgets as we speak.
Content Warning Ahoy: A couple of other people have mentioned Dynamite HAck’s version of “Boyz in the Hood already, but it’s the best satire of rich/middle class white kids (like me) adopting hip hop culture that I’ve ever seen. It’s actually funny, even if you don’t watch the video.
Sean M. on April 10, 2007 at 5:32 AM
Hey, at least Fergie stayed dry through her whole video.
Candy Slice on April 10, 2007 at 7:01 AM
I can’t stand either version, but I understand what Morrissette was doing.
Is Fergie gonna proud of herself when her grandchildren find this in the future?
Laura02420 on April 10, 2007 at 7:02 AM
Fergie—trashy pop culture, no doubt. What a waste of talent. Lyrics so simple and base even a caveman could have written them… I’ll just stick with my audio books.
Zorro on April 10, 2007 at 7:09 AM
This thread was worth reading if only for the link to that Wierd Al Yankovick video. Priceless.
I thought that the Alanis video was pretty funny, but what’s really the point of satirizing an original that was so over-the-top awful? The Fergie video was so outrageous, is there a chance it is a parody that people took seriously?
As you can tell, my only exposure to the Black Eyed Peas is through the cleaned up Radio Disney versions of their songs. I’m fairly mad right now that there are Radio Disney versions of the Black Eyed Peas — I don’t really want my kids to think they are cool.
I disagree with MM on one point:
I’ve seen her cleaned-up for Nickelodeon a few times. Therefore I know that she took ballet long enough to still be able to stand en pointe. And she clearly has musical talent. The reason we call this stuff “degradation of the culture” is because Fergie’s talent should be used in a way that ennobles the human exerience (think Billie Holliday), rather than just playing to our animal appetites.
If Fergie didn’t have talent, this would all be comedy — not tragedy.
Anton on April 10, 2007 at 8:31 AM
Well, not hiphop, but most rap, crunk, whatever it’s called these days, is total trash. There’s some great hiphop out there that transcends 50 cent gangsta poseurs and brings it back to the poetry it started with. But I understand if it’s not your thing.
Black Eyed Peas/Fergie are neither. They’re basically a marketing success. “Let’s Get Retarded”? Yeah, stupid and offensive.
SouthernDem on April 10, 2007 at 9:18 AM
“Both of them are unwatchable/unlistenable after about 30 seconds.”
Gee. Thanx for the invite.
locomotivebreath1901 on April 10, 2007 at 9:23 AM
Plus he actually changes the words. He’s not mocking the words the way “My Humps” seems to be.
Esthier on April 10, 2007 at 9:26 AM
I lolled.
Alanis is a semi-talented performer that escaped institutional objectification by virtue of her being Canadian and not quite attractive. She’s as much an attention whore as Britney and Fergie. She just didn’t have the, ah, marketability. So, instead of inspiring millions of little girls to hate themselves, she inspired them to hate men. Not much of a trade, but it’s something.
spmat on April 10, 2007 at 9:39 AM
As for whether Alanis is conveying a conservative message or a feminist one, I agree that it’s a feminist message. But I think this is a case where “the enemy of my enemy is my friend,” and conservatives and (usually liberal) feminists agree on the disgusting nature of the original song and others like it.
Really, if feminists were intellectually honest, I think they’d realize that they agree with conservatives quite a bit. For example, feminists really ought to be strongly in favor of American military actions in the Middle East since, among other things, we’re creating circumstances in which women have the option to take off the burka and the hijab, get a job, and not be beaten to death for it. I’ve never understood why feminists oppose what we’re doing in the Middle East. They should be our biggest cheerleaders!
aero on April 10, 2007 at 9:44 AM
Glad someone else mentioned Steve Allen. When I was a kid, I saw him do a recitation of “My Sharona” and fell smack in love.
mikeyboss on April 10, 2007 at 10:09 AM
I’m sure Alanis is doing the feminist message, it also is the conservative one. Women being sexy are okay. Women acting like animals eager to be bought and sold are not.
I too am disappointed that more “liberal” women’s groups are not speaking more loudly about the state of women in most Middle East and Islamic nations. I often tell my liberal friends these days to get their wives and daughters sized for burkas, because “tolerance” of a literal interpretation of the Koran’s teachings about women is aiding and abetting violence against women.
doufree on April 10, 2007 at 10:30 AM
Never been a fan of Alanis, but I am now. Just the fact her parody shows how absurd some of the music and videos that are out and top sellers to boot!
kcluva on April 10, 2007 at 10:49 AM
I thought the video was fantastic. I can’t stand Alanis–she’s a poseur of the first class variety–but I truly enjoyed her jab at this absurd song and The Black Eyed Peas.
robblefarian on April 10, 2007 at 10:51 AM
Truly horrifying. I was able to force myself to sit through the first one, but had to bail on the second after about a minute. The only thing worse than a bad song is a bad song done badly.
dostrick on April 10, 2007 at 11:00 AM
Ace is clearly Johnny Ola, the one who turned Fredo on to the “Superman” show in Cuba.
Dudley Smith on April 10, 2007 at 11:19 AM
Couldn’t get through either of them all the way, but in Alanis’ defense, at least she made a good point (even if I don’t care for her much either).
Man, pop music just sucks, sucks SUCKS these days. Is it any wonder that the recording industry is losing money like a degenerate gambler on a losing streak?
thirteen28 on April 10, 2007 at 11:24 AM
Most “stars” are makeup queens. This is my problem with the media/movies and everything. You see them always when they are perfect, after an hour of makeup, a custom hairdo, etc. But take it all off, and they look like everyone else.
I don’t get people worship any of these people are the hottest in the world or whatever. They are just people. They droop and sag like anyone else.
Here’s a great link in thar regard:
http://demo.fb.se/e/girlpower/retouch/retouch/
Play around on that above link for a while. Look at the before and after. Shocking what they do to people. And how they alter people’s perception of beauty.
lorien1973 on April 10, 2007 at 11:27 AM
Saw Steve Allen do a bit (a very, very long time ago) on his college tour, where he lamented the loss of our poets, and claimed to have found them — writing pop music lyrics!
He did a dramatic reading of “Shake Your Booty” that had me rolling.
Jaibones on April 10, 2007 at 11:33 AM
Nailed it in one. Perfect.
Is it feminist critique? Conservative analysis? Post-modern irony? I have no idea.
But Alanis certainly demonstrated just what a stupid, stupid, stupid song it is … like the vast majority of pop music today.
When the BEP song came out, I couldn’t believe it was serious – or that anybody would like it. Now I hear teenage girls using “My Lumps” (or whatever the @!#$% its called) as their ringtone on their cell.
Feminists certainly DO need to start speaking up. It’s pathetic what’s happened to them. I thank God I don’t have daughters. I don’t know how you raise them these days.
But even more important than the feminist issue, in my opinion, is the fact that people make MILLIONS selling absolute CRAP like this song. Consumers will not only buy crap today, they’ll lap it up and ask for seconds. It’s just embarrassing.
Listening to Morrisette’s version, while realizing that the original version has sold millions of copies, ought to make you simultaneously weep for our culture and laugh so hard your sides hurt.
Professor Blather on April 10, 2007 at 12:16 PM
While I’m sure that would’ve been funny, we never chose “Beth” because that was a Peter Criss song and wouldn’t really have fit the whole Gene Simmons’ Poetry vibe.
While it was good to find out more about American comedic history, this is exactly why our “The Poetry of Gene Simmons” TV bits only went 3 episodes. I knew I’d eventually get sued by either Steve Allen or Gene Simmons.
ScottMcC on April 10, 2007 at 12:24 PM
Good point, although I was under the impression that Simmons wrote the song.
Rick on April 10, 2007 at 12:38 PM
Yeah, but that pretty much goes for the entire population of Canada, eh?
Ali-Bubba on April 10, 2007 at 12:41 PM
Rap cover that sets the standard.
Is a STRONG LANGUAGE WARNING necessary?
xanthrope on April 10, 2007 at 1:34 PM
I’m just thanking God that the word, “nappy” never found its way into such an uplifting piece of pop culture.
Drum on April 10, 2007 at 1:51 PM
Everyone knows the old line about satire being what closes on Saturday night…
Mostly when people don’t get it.
I see Alannis as VALIANTLY trying to get the point across that, even if you think her lyrics can be overwrought at times, there isn’t much effort at all going on at the other end of the spectrum. Hate to say it, but having barely survived the disco era in one piece, I’m coming down on her side on this one, folks.
(Trivia question…What are the lyrics to the Silver Convention song “Get Up and Boogie”? If you have the answer to that question, you know why I’m coming down SOLIDLY on her side…We need never go back there.)
Her male “dancers” in this one, (Who look like members of my local law firm…Guido, Vito, Nunzio and Vinny) are proof that she’s joking. I haven’t seen dancing like that since dollar beer and quarter wing night at what used to be called the Levee. (Ask Don McLean . . . He’ll tell you where it is :) )
52Ranger on April 10, 2007 at 1:55 PM
Wow, I’m so old I never even heard of any of these artists – So there are some good things about getting older!
Ann on April 10, 2007 at 2:02 PM
Yeah, that was certainly a dark time in our nation’s history. However, at the same time, there was actually some incredibly good rock music coming out, so at least you had the yang to go with the yin. What do we have to balance things out nowadays?
thirteen28 on April 10, 2007 at 3:28 PM
No pun intended.
auspatriotman on April 10, 2007 at 10:45 PM
Just so you know, Fergie looks just as good(no surprise) with her brains scooped out. As long as you can keep the body warm……..
Just saw Grindhouse, if you didn’t guess.
