Alanis Morissette resurrected her mid '90s hit "You Oughta Know" at the American Music Awards, this time as a duet with Demi Lovato, the latter's second performance of the night. Morissette was here to celebrate the 20th anniversary of her "Jagged Little Pill." Morissette sounded great, her voice still lacing the song with bitterness and anger. So, the question: Did she need Lovato? Demi certainly didn't embarrass herself, but it's hard to figure out exactly what she added, as her voice is simply cleaner than Morissette's.
But here is the takeaway: If you want to get rock 'n' roll on an awards show nowadays, you'd better have a young star at your side.
