Upward Your Alley is the 6th studio album by American rock ring Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. It was originally released in May 1988, by Blackheart Records and CBS Records in the U.s., and by Polydor Records in Europe and Japan, a year and a half later their previous album Skillful Music. This anthology contains the single "I Hate Myself for Loving You", which peaked at No. eight on the Billboard Hot 100,^[4] and had been used as the theme song for Sunday Night Football NFL games in America (with altered lyrics, by two singers) during the 2006 and 2007 seasons. The follow-upward single "Little Liar" continued Jett'south chart success, peaking at No. xix on the Hot 100 in late 1988/early 1989.^[iv]

Up Your Alley peaked at No. xix on the Billboard 200 albums chart^[five] and has since been certified Platinum.^[6]

Former Rolling Stones guitarist Mick Taylor played the guitar solo on "I Hate Myself for Loving You lot".^[seven]

"I Detest Myself for Loving You lot" was released as the first unmarried, backed with a live version of the Jett composition "Beloved Is Pain" (the original version of which appears on 1981's I Beloved Rock 'due north Roll). "Little Liar" was the second single, backed with an obscure Jett/Laguna composition "What Can I Exercise for You", which had been recorded for a movie Jett was gear up to make in 1979 that was never completed. The song eventually turned up again on the Jett fan-club only CD 1979. For Record Store Twenty-four hours in 2015, the rails was included on the limited edition (4000 dissever colour vinyl) LP The First Sessions documenting the kickoff several songs Joan wrote with Kenny Laguna, her newly acquired producer.

Two videos were shot for "Little Liar", the starting time, a concept video, feature a slightly disruptive storyline with ii Joans (one in white, i in black) interacting. After seeing the result of the start Little Liar video, Jett was unhappy with the silliness and visual translation so immediately shot a new live video (synced with the studio version of the song) for this track. The new video captured a more authentic feel with raw live shots combined with cutaways and studio shot closeups of Joan. It was a more stylized live video with Ziggy Stardust-like artistic flourishes.

Joan Jett and the Blackhearts were nominated for a Grammy Laurels in 1998 for All-time Rock Functioning by a Duo or Group with Vocal for "I Hate Myself for Loving You lot".^[viii]
