Flavors of Entanglement was written by Alanis Morissette and produced by Guy Sigsworth during 2006 and 2007 in London and Los Angeles. There were 23 songs written for the album, but the album will only include 11. Alanis has said the remaining songs should find their way on some exclusive type releases. A note of interest is that the song "Wounded Leading Wounded" from the So-Called Chaos sessions, has been picked up and worked on by Sigsworth. Whether it will be released this time around is unknown.

In April of 2007, shortly after the premiere of the "My Humps" parody video, Alanis was a guest performer at Hotel Cafe in Los Angeles where she debuted the song "Not As We". This was the first song the fans had the chance of hearing since her new writing sessions with Sigsworth. The song later found its way to an episode of the TV series, House in October of 2007. She later sang this song in November at a benefit dedicated to the late filmmaker Adrienne Shelley in New York City.

A couple months prior, the Elevate Film Festival took place in September at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, CA. Alanis took part in the film festival, by submitting her song "Underneath" to be given the treatment of an uplifting music video. This video was premiered in front of an audience, along with 20 something other videos from various film makers and artists. Once the video leaked properly online, it continued false speculation as a video intended for commercial release until Alanis herself said on her website that the video was leaked online without her permission and that she was unsure which song would be the first single. Underneath, she said, may be the first single, and if so a proper video would be shot.

The lyric, "flavors of entanglement" comes from a song entitled "Moratorium" which seems to be the highlight of the show for Alanis during the Exile on America tour. The song is played instrumentally as an introduction to her set before "Uninvited" begins.

The following is a list of still unreleased songs known to have been written and recorded during the Flavors of Entanglement sessions:

- Wounded Leading Wounded

01. CITIZEN OF THE PLANET

i start up in the north i grow from special seed
i sprinkle it with sensibility
from French and Hungarian snow
i linger in the sprouting until my engine's full

then i move across the sea
to european bliss
to language of poets
as i cut the cord of home
i kiss my mother's mother
look to the horizon

wide eyed, new ground
humbled by my new surroundings

i am a citizen of the planet
my president is kwan yin
my frontier is on an airplane
my prisons: homes for rehabilitating

then i fly back to my nest,
i fly back with my nuclear
but everything is different
so i wait, my yearn for home is broadened,
patriotism expanded by callings from beyond

so i pack my things nothing precious
all things sacred

i am a citizen of the planet
my laws are all of attraction
my punishments are consequences
separating from source the original sin

i am a citizen of the planet
democracy's kids are sovereign
where the teachers are the sages
and pedestals fill with every parent

and so, the next few years are blurry
the next decade's a flurry of smells and tastes unknown
threads sewn straight through this fabric
through fields of every color one culture to another

i come alive and i get giddy
and i taken and globally naturalized

i am a citizen of the planet
from simple roots through high vision
i am guarded by the angels
my body guides the direction i go in

i am a citizen of the planet
my favorite pastime edge stretching
besotten with human condition
these ideals are borne from my deepest within

02. UNDERNEATH

look at us break our bonds in this kitchen
look at us rallying all our defenses
look at us waging war in our bedroom
look at us jumping ship in our dialogues

there is no difference in what we're doing in here
that doesn't show up as bigger symptoms out there
so why spend all our time in dressing our bandages
when we've the ultimate key to the cause right here
our underneath

look at us form our cliques in our sandbox
look at us micro kids with both our hearts blocked
look at us turned away from all the rough spots
look at dictatorship on my own block

there is no difference in what we're doing in here
that doesn't show up as bigger symptoms out there
so why spend all our time in dressing our bandages
when we've the ultimate key to the cause right here
our underneath

how I've spun my wheels with carts before my horse
when shine on the outside springs from the root
spotlight on these seeds of simpler reasons
this core, born into form, starts in our living room

there is no difference in what we're doing in here
that doesn't show up as bigger symptoms out there
so why spend all our time in dressing our bandages
when we've the ultimate key to the cause right here
our underneath

03. STRAITJACKET

something so benign for me construed as cruelty
such a difference between who I am and who you see
conclusions you come to of me routinely incorrect
i don’t know who you’re talking to with such fucking disrespect

this shit’s making me crazy
the way you nullify what’s in my head
you say one thing do another
and argue that’s not what you did
your way’s making me mental
how you filter as skewed interpret
i swear you won’t be happy til
i am bound in a straitjacket

talking with you's like talking to a sieve that can’t hear me
tou fight me tooth and nail to disavow what’s happening

you're resistance to a mirror i feel screaming from your body
one day i’ll introduce myself and you’ll see you’ve not yet met me

this shit’s making me crazy
the way you nullify what’s in my head
you say one thing do another
and argue that’s not what you did
your way’s making me mental
how you filter as skewed interpret
i swear you won’t be happy til
i am bound in a straitjacket

grand dissonance
the strings of my puppet are cut
the end of an era
your discrediting’s lost my consent

this shit’s making me crazy
the way you nullify what’s in my head
you say one thing do another
and argue that’s not what you did
your way’s making me mental
how you filter as skewed interpret
i swear you won’t be happy til
i am bound in a straitjacket

04. VERSIONS OF VIOLENCE

coercing or leaving
shutting down and punishing
running from rooms,
defending withholding, justifying

these versions of violence
sometimes subtle sometimes clear
and the ones that go unnoticed
still leave their mark once disappeared

diagnosing, analyzing
unsolicited advice
explaining and controlling
judging opining and meddling

these versions of violence
sometimes subtle sometimes clear
and the ones that go unnoticed
still leave their mark once disappeared

this labeling
this pointing
this sensitive’s unraveling
this sting I’ve been ignoring
i feel it way down way down

these versions of violence
sometimes subtle sometimes clear
and the ones that go unnoticed
still leave their mark once disappeared

these versions of violence
sometimes subtle sometimes clear
and the ones that go unnoticed
still leave their mark once disappeared

05. NOT AS WE

reborn and shivering
spat out on new terrain
unsure unconvincing
this faint and shakey hour

day one day one start over again
step one step one
i'm barely making sense for now
i'm faking it til I'm pseudo making it
from scratch begin again but this time "I as i"
and not as we

gun shy and quivering
timid without a hand
feign brave with steel intent
little and hardly here

day one day one start over again
step one step one
with not much making sense just yet
i'm faking it til I'm pseudo making it
from scratch begin again but this time "I as i"
and not as we

eyes wet toward
wide open frayed
if god's taking bets
i pray He wants to lose

day one day one start over again
step one step one
i'm barely making sense just yet
i'm faking it til I'm pseudo making it
from scratch begin again but this time "I as I"
and not as we

06. IN PRAISE OF THE VULNERABLE MAN

you are the bravest man I’ve ever met
you unreluctant at treacherous ledge
you are the sexiest man I’ve ever been with
you, never hotter than with armor spent

when you do what you do to provide
how you land in the soft as you fortify

this is in praise of the vulnerable man
why won’t you lead the rest of your cavalry home

you, with your eyes mix strength with abandon
you with your new kind of heroism

and I bow and I bow down to you
to the grace that it takes to melt on through

this is in praise of the vulnerable man
why won’t you lead the rest of your cavalry home
this is a thank you for letting me in
indeed in praise of the vulnerable man

you are the greatest man I’ve ever met
you the stealth setter of new precedents

and I vow and I vow to be true
and I vow and I vow not to take advantage

this is in praise of the vulnerable man
why won’t you lead the rest of your cavalry home
this is a thank you for letting me in
indeed in praise of the vulnerable man

07. MORATORIUM

i've never been this accountable-less and within
i've never known focuslessness on any form

i've never had this lack of ache for dalliance
To let go, and let god in ways i have never even imagined

I’ve never let my grasp soften; fingers like this
I’ve never been careless otherless like autonomy’s twin

i declare a moratorium on things relationship
i declare a respite from the toils of liaison
i do need a breather from the flavors of entanglement
i declare a full time out from all things commitment

ah to breathe
Stop looking outside
Stop searching in corners of rooms
Not my business or timing
ahhh

I’ve never known freedom from intertwining
i start again this time for keeps, in my skin i'm residing

i declare a moratorium on things relationship
i declare a respite from the toils of liaison
i do need a breather from the flavors of entanglement
i declare a full time out from all things commitment

i declare a moratorium on things relationship
i declare a respite from the toils of liaison
i do need a breather from the flavors of entanglement
i declare a full time out from all things commitment

08. TORCH

i miss your smell and your style and your pure abiding way
miss your approach to life and your body in my bed
miss your take on anything and the music you would play
miss cracking up and wrestling and our debriefs at end of day

these are things that I miss
these are not times for the weak of heart
these are the days of raw despondence
i never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you like this

i miss your neck and your gait and your sharing what you write
miss you walking through the front door documentaries in your hand
miss traveling our traveling and your fun and charming friends
miss our big sur getaways and to watch you love my dogs

these are things that I miss
these are not times for the weak of heart
these are the days of raw despondence
i never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you like this

one step one prayer I soldier on,
simulating moving on

i miss your warmth and the thought of us bringing up our kids
and the part of you that walks with your stick-tied handkerchief

these are things that I miss
these are not times for the weak of heart
these are the days of raw despondence
i never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you like this

these are things that I miss
these are not times for the weak of heart
these are the days of raw despondence
i never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you like this

09. GIGGLING AGAIN FOR NO REASON

i am driving in my car up highway one
i left LA without telling anyone
there were people who needed something from me
but I am sure they’ll get along fine on their own

oh this state of ecstasy
nothing but road could ever give to me
this liberty wind in my face
and I’m giggling again for no reason

i am dancing with my friends in elation
we’ve taken adventures to new levels of fun
i can feel the bones are smiling in my body
i can see the meltings of inhibition

oh this state of ecstasy
nothing but road could ever give to me
this liberty wind in my face
and I’m giggling again for no reason

i’m reeling jubilation
triumphant in delight
i am at home in this high five
and I’m smiling for no reason

i am sitting at the set of cali sun
we’ve gotten quiet for its’ last precious seconds
i can feel the salt of the sea on my skin
and we still hear the echoes of abandon

oh this state of ecstasy
nothing but net could ever give to me
this liberty wind in my face
and I’m giggling again for no reason

10. TAPES

"i am someone easy to leave"
"every easier to forget"
a voice, if inaccurate

again: "i'm the one they all run from"
diatribes of clouded sun
someone help me find the pause button

all these tapes in my head swirl around
keeping my vibe down
all these thoughts in my head aren't my own
wreaking havoc

"i'm too exhausting to be loved"
"a volatile chemical"
"best to quarantine and cut off"

all these tapes in my head swirl around
keeping my vibe down
all these thoughts in my head aren't my own
wreaking havoc

"i'm but a thorn in your sweet side"
"you are better off without me"
"it'd be best to leave at once"

all these tapes in my head swirl around
keeping my vibe down
all these thoughts in my head aren't my own
wreaking havoc

11. INCOMPLETE

one day ill find relief
i’ll be arriv-ed and
i'll be a friend to my friends
who know how to be friends

one day ill be at peace
i’ll be enlightened and
i'll be married with children
and maybe adopt

one day I will be healed
I will gather my wounds
forge the end of tragic comedy

i have been running so sweaty my whole life
urgent for a finish line
and I have been missing the rapture this whole time
Of being forever incomplete

one day, my mind will retreat,
and ill know god and ill be constantly one
with her night dusk and day

one day ill be secure,
like the women I see
on their 30th anniversaries

i have been running so sweaty my whole life
urgent for a finish line
and I have been missing the rapture this whole time
of being forever incomplete

ever unfolding
ever expanding
ever adventurous and torturous
but never done

one day, I will speak freely
i’ll be less afraid
and measured outside of my poems
and lyrics and art

one day I will be faith-filled
ill be trusting and spacious authentic
and grounded and whole

i have been running so sweaty my whole life
urgent for a finish line
and I have been missing the rapture this whole time
of being forever incomplete
