Alanis Morissette (and Demi Lovato) just rocked it at the AMA's. The song holds up.

People still suspect that this song is about Dave Coulier.

It's become the You're So Vain of a new generation. EW did an oral history of the album a few weeks ago. Alanis said that while she'll never say who it is or isn't about, Dave has been the most public about claiming "credit" for it.

"I dated Alanis in 1992. You know, it's just funny to be the supposed subject of that song. First of all, the guy in that song is a real a-hole, so I don't want to be that guy. Secondly, I asked Alanis, 'I'm getting calls by the media and they want to know who this guy is."

"And she said, 'Well, you know it could be a bunch of people. But you can say whatever you want."

"So one time, I was doing a red carpet somewhere and [the press] just wore me down and everybody wanted to know so I said, 'Yeah, all right, I'm the guy. There I said it.' So then it became a snowball effect of, 'OH! So you are the guy!"
