"You Learn" is a song by Canadian singer-songwriter Alanis Morissette from her third studio album, Jagged Little Pill (1995).

Maverick and Warner Bros. Records released the song as the album's fourth single (third in the United Kingdom).

"You Learn" was first released in Japan in September 1995 and was issued worldwide throughout the following year, starting with the United Kingdom in February.

During Morissette's stay in Los Angeles to record "You Learn" and other parts of Jagged Little Pill, she was robbed on an empty street by a man with a gun, after which she developed intense general anxiety and suffered daily panic attacks.

An acoustic version of the song from Morissette's live album Alanis Unplugged (1999) was released as a single in some countries in 2000.

Stephen Thomas Erlewine, of AllMusic, highlighted it as an album standout, but separately gave the song two and a half of five stars.

[5] Larry Flick from Billboard felt that "this could easily become Morissette's crowning hit, with its shrewdly R&B-flavoured shuffle beat and sugar-coated guitar scratching—not to mention its instantly hummable, almost anthemic chorus.

[8] John Murphy, of MusicOMH, wrote, "'You Oughta Know' and 'You Learn' have a lightness of touch that nicely balance[s] the darkness of the subject matter.

The original music video, directed by Liz Friedlander, starts with Morissette, hair in dreadlocks, handstanding in her apartment.

She puts on a white sports jacket, leaves the apartment by the fire escape, and carelessly crosses the street, causing a multi-car accident and an ensuing riot.

She jumps from the ledge, lands wearing a blue jacket, and soon engages in a pie fight with a group of people, including her touring drummer Taylor Hawkins.

Morissette staggers to her feet, wobbly exits the ring and walks out of the gym as the video ends.

An acoustic version of the song appeared as the first track on Morissette's live album MTV Unplugged(1999) and was released as the second single, only in France and Europe, later that year.

It was performed by Rachel Berry (Lea Michele), Santana Lopez (Naya Rivera), Brittany Pierce (Heather Morris), Tina Cohen-Chang (Jenna Ushkowitz), Quinn Fabray (Dianna Agron), and Kurt Hummel (Chris Colfer) with their alma mater high school's glee club.
