nme.comOlivia Rodrigo will induct Alanis Morissette into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame during a ceremony in Toronto next month.“I remember hearing Alanis for the first time when I was about 13,” Rodrigo – who performed Morissette’s 1995 hit ‘You Oughta Know’ alongside her during a show in Los Angeles earlier this year – said in a statement.“I was in the car with my parents when Jagged Little Pill came on.
I heard’ Perfect,’ I was like, ‘Oh, my God… You can write songs like that?’ I just looked at music and songwriting in a completely different way.”Last year, Rodrigo and Morissette were paired for a Rolling Stone podcast feature, in which they interviewed one another about songwriting and their early careers.
Earlier this year, during an appearance on the Kelly Clarkson Show, Morissette discussed wanting to make Rodrigo a “tour survival kit”.This year’s Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame induction ceremony is set to take place on September 24 at Toronto’s Massey Hall.
In addition to Morissette, Bryan Adams, Jim Vallance, David Foster and Daniel Lavoie will also be inducted into the Hall of Fame.
