Canadian singer and song writer, Alanis Morissette, is uesd to being in the public eye. Her most famous album Jagged Little Pill, came out in 1995 when she was only twenty-one years old. It sold 15 million copies and made her world famous. Since then she had made several more albums, and she has continued giving great performances on stage. Last Thursday night, hundreds of fans went to the Corn Exchange in Cambridge,England to see Alanis Morissette performing in concert. It was Morissette's first performance in England since her song"Uninvited"won this year's Grammy Award for the best rock song. The 30-year-old singer has a strong fan base in England. There was not an empty seat anywhere in the concert hall at last Thursday's event, although it was an extremely cold night. "Sure it's cold outside, but I hope we'll warm it up in here for you," Morissette said to the large crowd before she started to play. During the 3-hour concert, Morissette used a lot of material from her award-winning album" Jagged Little Pill".
