Erin O'Neill shares powerhouse cover of Alanis Morrissette's "You Oughta Know"
With her first release coming since 2020, Erin O’Neill is back in a big way with a massive cover of Alanis Morissette’s “You Oughta Know”. We are loving it! Please read along with us as we share our complete thoughts on the track, in addition to a background on the artist.
Currently representing the Los Angeles music scene, Erin O’Neill has successfully taken on one of the most difficult songs to cover, Alanis Morissette’s “You Oughta Know”. Showing off her unbelievably stellar and dynamic vocals, we’re not overstating or exaggerating when we say she’s given Alanis a run for her money. Truly, we are highly recommending you check out this single as soon as you can.
With a huge dose of the 90’s nostalgia coming rushing back to us, but in an inventive and reimagined take, Erin’s done what so many artists wish they could accomplish. Staying faithful to the track in some regard, we’re the type of music listeners who enjoy when an artist takes a great song and makes it their own. In this case, she’s done exactly that and sort of stripped the song back instrumentally and added a much needed blues rock tone to it. We didn’t know we needed it, but we’re beyond glad it now exists.
Once you listen, and quickly come to love it, we’re also suggesting you dig into Erin O’Neill’s other music and originals because with a voice like that, we promise you’re going to want to uncover more of what she’s got. She’s been a part of major bands such as Gooding and has solo albums of her own that are certainly worth jumping down the rabbit hole to explore. We definitely recommend kicking off your journey into her music with “You Oughta Know”, but keep it in mind there’s plenty of gems left to uncover.
Lastly, we’ve included all the important links below in order for you to listen and follow along with her social media for all the latest news and releases. It sincerely is paramount to the great job that she’s done here, so you should definitely be checking out her other works once you realize she’s got one of the most powerful voices you’ve heard.
