Ironic

Dear Alanis,

My name is Paulina and I am from Chile. First of all I must say I really like your music but the reason of this letter is to pint out an interesting fact I just realized in one of my classes. I paid attention to the lyrics of one of your most famous songs, Ironic, and in spite of the fact I think it is a really good song I also think you don't have a good understanding of the concept of Irony Isn't it ironic... don't you think? From my understanding, there are 3 modern types of irony: Verbal Irony is a difference between what the speaker says and what he means, the second type is Dramatic, a difference between what the character nad the audience know, finally we have situational irony which is the difference between what someone mean to happen and what actualy happen so as you can see your song doesn't fit in any of this categories, this doesn't mean it is not a good song, on the contrary I really like it, I just wanted to point out the irony of this fact.

I hope my opinion doesn't bother you

Looking forward to hearing from you

Pau
