Despite the aggressive lyrics of “You Oughta Know,” the “Full House” actor doesn’t seem to hold a grudge against Alanis Morissette, saying in the same interview that Morissette was nothing but kind to him when they reconnected. He also told the hosts that Morisette didn’t appear to be worried about him retaliating against the song and instead told him that he could speak about their relationship freely.
So, has it been explicitly confirmed that the song is about Dave Coulier?
Not by Morisette herself. In a 2004 appearance on “The Howard Stern Show,” the singer-songwriter joked that nobody would ever truly know who the song is about due to her being the only one in the studio when it was written. “People talk about who that song’s about, and they will continue to, and I never, I never confirm or affirm who it’s about, and I never will,” she told Stern. However, she did go on to backpedal a little, stating, “Well, I say never, and I really shouldn’t say never, ’cause I may very well one day do it.”
