Alanis loves her lady lumps

ALANIS MORISSETTE loves her version of the BLACK EYED PEAS' hit tune My Humps
- as it was a welcome break from her own emotions.

The Canadian singer/songwriter released the down-tempo cover last year, with
over a million views in the first week it launched on YouTube.

And Alanis reckons the creation of her moody rendition was a therapeutic
experience.

The Ironic singer said: "I was in the studio with (producer) GUY
SIGSWORTH and he would say, 'What horse from the apocalypse are you
bringing in today, Alanis?' Because every song was this tsunami of emotions.

"So I said, 'I wish I could just write a really simple song - a song like
My Humps.' Then we had a pregnant pause, looked at each other, and said,
'All right, let's do it!'

"Within moments we were recording the piano version of it, and within a
week we were shooting the video in my garage here at my house."
