Advantages: Brilliant.

Disadvantages: There is None.

I find it impossible to speak badly of this album. This album was as much a part of life while I was growing up as perhaps Pokemon and the Spice Girls were for all the other kids growing up in the '90s.
It still isn't something that's left me, with it getting listened to several times a week (despite Alanis being a major let down live). The album in my opinion, is one of THE albums of the 20th Century and perhaps doesn't get the recognition is most certainly deserves.
There a handful of songs on the album which the whole population can easily sing along to, such as the aptly named song Ironic, which contains not a hint or irony, just a lot of bad luck.
However, anybody who has never got the hands on this album must do. NOW. If only to get absorbed in the highly moving masterpiece Perfect. It sings of the pressures children often feel from the parents to be perfect. It is sang with a lot of angst which is to be expected from Alanis, but also such heartfelt realism, that it's hard not to stop and take every nanosecond of it in.
A truly amazing album. Every household should own at least one copy.

Summary: A must own.
