In footage of the performance on YouTube, Britney belted the song – appearing to sing without a backing track — while addressing male dancers sitting in chairs.

Brit's done a few covers over the years, including the Rolling Stones' "Satisfaction," but the Alanis track was a surprise on her "Circus" setlist.
