"Sisterhood of Music: Morissette names the women who she thinks rock" (excerpt from Entertainment Weekly)

“I’m so over stimulated I listen to meditation music 90 percent of the time. It used to drive people that I’ve dated crazy.” Here, some who help occupy the other 10 percent.

1. Joni Mitchell
   When I first moved to L.A. from Canada, I was embroiled in massive culture shock. “River” was my security blanket.
2. Sinéad O’Connor
   I listened to I Do Not Want What I Haven’t Got a thousand times as a kid. Her gorgeous voice, her raw emotionality, combined with this great loop. Oh! So up my alley.
3. Sarah Slean
   Her voice is like velvet, and her lyrics are so her. I love artists who are distinctly themselves, and they’re not trying to be something else.
4. Justine Frischemann, Elastica
   Love her. Where is she now? She’s kind of my fantasy girl. I want to ride motorbikes with her.
