He shared:

"Here's the story. "I'm driving in Detroit, and I've got my radio on, and I hear the hook for You Oughta Know come on the radio. I'm like, wow, this is a really cool hook. And then I start hearing the voice. I'm like, wow, this girl can sing. And I had no idea, you know, that this was the record."

While chatting about the moment, Dave Coulier further continued:

"There was a lot of familiar stuff in there that her and I had talked about. Like, 'Your shake is like a fish.' I'd go, 'Hey, dead fish me.' And we'd do this dead fish handshake.'"

While listening to the song, he realized how he had hurt Morissette. Recalling that moment, he added,

"And so I started listening to it and I thought, 'Oh, I think I may have really hurt this woman.' That was my first thought."
