Aimee Mann: articulate?

they make plenty fine sense to me. well some of them do. Some a boring ole tosh though. but plenty i quite like. gosh that wasn't very helpful of me was it.

truth is you're better off not making sense of them. i made sense of one of them once and i can't wash my hands enough since.

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm totally rocking out to "I Should Have Know" from a mixtape I made for myself in highschool.

Known

I even love here NPR Period (1994-present)

She played at gig I went to last night but I didn't hang out long enough to see her.

great dancer, real athletic too.

high five

u hit that, slocki

shit, so jealous

i'm currently leafing through 'choosing death: the improbable history of death metal and grindcore', and she has her name in there. twice.

Theyre all still on their honeymoon
Just read the dialogue balloon
Everyone loves you--
Why should they not?
And Im the only one who knows
That disneylands about to close
I dont suppose youd give it a shot
Knowing all that youve got

Are cigarettes and red vines
Just close your eyes, cause, baby--
You never do know
And Ill be on the sidelines,
With my hands tied,
Watching the show

Well, its always fun and games until
Its clear you havent got the skill
In keeping the gag from going too far
So youre running round the parking lot
til every lightning bug is caught
Punching some pinholes
In the lid of a jar
While we wait in the car

With cigarettes and red vines
Just close your eyes, cause, baby--
You never do know
And Ill be on the sidelines,
With my hands tied,
Watching the show

And tell me, would it kill you
Would it really spoil everything
If you didnt blame yourself
Do you know what I mean?

The Forgotten Arm is one of the most articulate and coherent, if one-dimensional, concept albums I've ever heard.

Love her to pieces, but she uses "deathly" in a grammatically incorrect manner. So not sure if "articulate" is the word here, folks.

Dear John and Goodbye Caroline are two of the greatest songs ever

You know it/I know it/Why don't you/Just show it?

^ crap

what more npr musicians should aspire to

she's always got her finger pointed at someone

it's what makes her and elliott smith kind of insufferable for me.

i do like the music, brion kinda played it out though

New project "the Both" out soon.

Ted Leo and her seem like interesting foils for each other, complementary enough without being all that obvious, so I'm curious how it will turn out.

Lol thread title btw

Harmonies a strong point. I like "oh Susan" in this regard.

It's actually just called "Susan."

There's this http://soundcloud.com/superegorecords/milwaukee

I mentioned in the other (one of the other?) Aimee Mann thread, but Leo and Mann are full collaborators on this, thankfully. There's no clear her song/his song. They sing together, harmonize, bring the best of what they do to each other's best. Which isn't to say it's better than any of their other stuff, but a really nice cross between the two of them.
