Foi no programa "The Late late show with James Corden" que Alanis Morissette foi desafiada a cantar a versão atualizada de Ironic, a música que chegou aos tops de quase todo o mundo em1995 e que foi nomeada para 2 grammys e o vídeoclip chegou a ser nomeado para 6 MTV vídeo music awads.

Esta versão fala dos problemas de hoje em dia que passam pelo que se escreve no facebook, das dietas, dos novos iPhones, do Snapshat, do Waze, da Netflix....

An old friend sends you a facebook request

You only find out they're racist after you accept
There's free office cake
on the first day of your diet
It's like they announce a new iphone
The day after you buy it
And isn't it ironic, don't you think?

It's like swiping left on your future soulmate
It's a snapchat that you wish you had saved
It's a funny tweet that nobody faves
And who would? ve thought it figures

It's a traffic jam when you try to use waze
A no-smoking sign
When you brought your vape
It's 10, 000 male late-night hosts
When all you want is just one woman, seriously!
It's singing the duet of your dreams
And then Alanis Morissette shouting at you
And isn't it ironic, don't you think?
A little too ironic, and yeah I really do think

It's like you're first class
on a southwest plane
Then you realize that every seat is the same
It's like Amazon but your package never came
And who would? ve thought it figures

It's like netflix but you own dvds
It's a free ride but your uber's down the street
It's singing Ironic, but there are no ironies
And who would've thought it figures

Well life has a funny way
Of sneaking up on you
And life has a funny, funny way

Of helping you out
Helping you ou

Agora ouve aqui a versão original de Ironic, lançada em 1995:

Vê aqui a letra original...

An old man turned ninety-eight

He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
Isn't it ironic, don't you think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought, it figures
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well, isn't this nice."
And isn't it ironic, l don't you think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought, it figures
Well, life…
