"So Pure" failed to chart on the US Billboard Hot 100 and performed moderately in the United Kingdom, where it reached the top 40. In 2000, the song was nominated for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance at the 43rd Annual Grammy Awards but lost to Sheryl Crow's "There Goes the Neighborhood".[2] The music video won the award for Best Video at 2000 Juno Awards.[citation needed]


Music video


The single's video, directed by Morissette, featured her and (then boyfriend) actor Dash Mihok as dance partners transitioning through time and style, from ballroom to salsa, swing, tap, contemporary and rave. It was filmed over two days in Toronto, Canada. Morissette said of the video, "Over the last year, I'd become enamored with the dancing styles of the '40s in particular, and intrigued by the evolution of dancing throughout the last five decades and the spirit and different kinds of attitudes that fuel them. When it came time to create this video, there was no question that there would be dancing in it and that these different eras needed to be referenced!" The video world-premiered on AOL on June 25, 1999, and was the first from a major artist to debut on the internet.[3]

«So Pure» — песня Аланис Мориссетт в стиле поп-рок с альбома Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie (1998). Сингл, по счету четвёртый, вышел 10 августа 1999 (см. 1999 в музыке), и and it is uptempo and reminiscent in sound to the dance pop music Morissette recorded before her third album Jagged Little Pill (1995). В песне встречается фраза «supposed former infatuation junkie», впоследствии ставшая названием для альбома. Сингл попал на радио 29 июня и не пользовался большим успехом. Песня не попала в первую двадцатку чартов Billboard Adult Top 40 и Top 40 Mainstream. «So Pure» не попала в чарт США Billboard Hot 100, но достигла среднего результата в чарте Великобритании. Специальный ремикс «radio friendly» был включен на промосинглы США и был лишь выпущен на австралийской версии сингла.
