OT: Aimee Mann
« on: March 09, 2006, 07:59:19 pm »

I have been recording Judging Amy (reruns on TNT, but I never seen the show when it was on until last year) and today they played a song at the end. after doing some research i found it was "Aimee Mann - Wise Up"

I think Jillian died after she gave birth to her baby boy (On the TV show)

This was the second song I bought from Itunes, It is very nice.

Artist: Aimee Mann
Song: Wise Up

It's not
What you thought
When you first began it
You got
What you want
Now you can hardly stand it though,
By now you know
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
'Til you wise up

You're sure
There's a cure
And you have finally found it
You think
One drink
Will shrink you 'til you're underground
And living down
But it's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
'Til you wise up

Prepare a list of what you need
Before you sign away the deed
'Cause it's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
'Til you wise up
No, it's not going to stop
'Til you wise up
No, it's not going to stop
So just...give up

This song is also in the soundtrack to the movie Magnolia, which IMHO is one of the best films I've ever seen...

Aimee Mann is a WONDERFUL singer/songwriter with a keen sense of observation and an intelligent, witty songwriting style. If you liked "Wise Up" I'd wholeheartedly suggest you pick up her two best (IMO) CDs:

* Bachelor No. 2, Or The Last Remains Of The Dodo
* Lost In Space

The Magnolia soundtrack is also great, as is her concert CD/DVD "Live at St. Ann's Warehouse". I had the pleasure of seeing her perform at the 9:30 Club in Washington, D.C. in late 2005 (same tour that St. Ann's was recorded on) and she and her band were amazing. I've been a big fan for years.

By the way, in case you weren't aware Aimee was the vocalist for the 80's band 'Til Tuesday, who had a big radio hit with their song "Voices Carry" in 1985.

yes, I played about 40 of the 30second short clips and she sounds good, and I will be looking into maybe buying more of her songs.

Actually it seems Jillian is in a coma today On Judging Amy (On TNT)
