Absent from the album’s mix is renowned überproducer Glen Ballard, who co-authored much of Dave Matthews last album, as well as most of the material on Morisette’s previous two albums. This time Morisette is fully dressed and alive in psychedelic technicolor, for the first time singing songs written solely by her. There’s more irony in many of these songs than there ever was in 1996’s hit “Ironic...
Stone County Sheriff Mike Ballard admits there was a two-or three-minute altercation and that Javed was stripped naked. But Ballard says the prisoners told him Javed incited the beatings by saying "F___ the United States. I'm glad they hit the World Trade Center."

Both for better and for worse, her vocals have become the icing on his sugary vanilla layer cake of strings, guitars, keyboards and marching-band drum fills. His adornments make some of Lynne's performances, like a cover of John Lennon's Mother, feel dipped...
...That's one of the misconceptions of this business," says Paul Lancaster, vice president for finance at Ballard Power Systems in Vancouver, Canada. "They've had a phenomenally rapid development. People overpromised them" before a consumer-compatible technology emerged. Ballard (2000 revenues: $41 million), partly owned by Daimler-Chrysler and Ford, is the leader in automotive fuel-cell development...
