Finally a new album by Alanis Morrisette!
Watch and listen to Guardian:
You, you who has smiled when you’re in pain
You who has soldiered through the profane
They were distracted and shut downSo why, why would you talk to me at all
such words were dishonorable and in vain
their promise as solid as a fogand where was your watchman then
I’ll be your keeper for life as your guardian
I’ll be your warrior of care your first warden
I’ll be your angel on call, I’ll be on demand
The greatest honor of all, as your guardianyou, you in the chaos feigning sane
You who has pushed beyond what’s humane
Them as the ghostly tumbleweedAnd where was your watchman then
I’ll be your keeper for life as your guardian
I’ll be your warrior of care your first warden
I’ll be your angel on call, I’ll be on demand
The greatest honor of all, as your guardiannow no more smiling mid-crestfall
No more managing unmanageables
No more holding still in the hailstormNow enter your watchwoman
I’ll be your keeper for life as your guardian
I’ll be your warrior of care your first warden
I’ll be your angel on call, I’ll be on demand
The greatest honor of all, as your guardian
This album is definitely on my wishlist! 😀 Such a gorgeous and talented lady.
Update: Alanis is coming to the Netherlands on November 21st. And I just bought tickets, jihaaa!
First time I heard this song was at a funeral. It made complete sense.

Guardian angels: loved ones who look after us, even when they have passed away. I love that thought.
