I'll give it to thehut.
Nothing that Alanis talks about in the song could be described as irony (more bad luck). However, surely the fact that she wrote a song called Ironic which doesn't contain any irony is the very apotheosis of irony? In fact, she might very well have done that on purpose, although probably not.
(and I would say most British folk wouldn't understand the meaning of irony either. Like Baldrick).
Anyway, thehut, have the baton!

Huddersfield is in, BIF isn't.
Yes, I should have put the full name rather than the acronym, you're right. But I've never called then anything else.
This song was the last they released as the JAMMs, and it was right in the middle of their "Stadium House" trilogy as The KLF.
It was quite notorious at the time, as a load of graffitti of the song's title suddenly appeared on motorway bridges leading to the North from the South.
Anyway, another clue... this town's team is in the Premiership, with a very well-known manager.
