If you are planning to see the Christmas show on Aimee's tour, there might be spoilers in this post. Check Aimee Mann's Website for dates and venues. This was no doubt our last concert for 2008. As we stood outside the beautiful art-deco Wiltern Theater Saturday night, me with my two cameras, one of the [...]
I was just sitting here thinking...not even that deeply, and this song came on via the shuffle! Talk about a song that can swing your state of mind! This is some serious life assessing music. Ah, the beauty of the internet...hear it, think it, post it. Aimee Mann - 'Wise Up' MP3 ~~
Voices Carry is a song that we hear at work, at least, a couple of times a week. Although I grew up addicted to the original, this very atmospheric acoustic version is my favorite.Oh, is it just me or does Aimee Mann have the best smile?
Ok...i am going to bed....before midnight on a Friday night...its just been THAT long of a week. But I leave you with this piece of musical wisdom from one of my favorite movies...'Magnolia'
The 'girl' has always known when to leave a party...Have decided to cease posting, but wanted to take a moment to say farewell to all the wonderful moggers I've come to know these past months; MOG has been immensely satisfying due largely to the eclectic community inhabiting the site. Thanks so much for the fabulous music, comments, and insightful exchanges. Wishing all a lovely holiday season ...
Going to bed now...but I heard this song fofr the first time in a long time tonight...it reminded me of how much I loved Aimee Mann!Enjoy and sweet dreams
This mix was inspired on the changes of color, you know the way a book, a film or a song can change colors; the way you hear it can have a different feel, shape or shade from the first time you heard it. Can you hear theme within these colors?Coldplay - Life in Technicolor (mp3)Aimee Mann - Red Vines (mp3)The Who - Behind Blue Eyes (mp3)Prince - Purple Rain (mp3)Keane - Goodbye Yellow Brick Ro...
In 1985, I remember seeing "Voices Carry" by Til' Tuesday on MTV. Yea...I graduated in 1987 (I will be attending my 20th year high school reunion, but I am loving music more than I have ever in the past. The subtleties, the nuances, the smaller hooks in the background...all of it). Go ahead...make something of it, wiseguy.To be honest...I usually don't listen to female singers. They are not...
Hoo boy! It looks like the law of diminishing returns is catching up to Aimee Mann, I am sorry to say. Today I received a Newsletter from her website advertising her new Christmas CD. Below is the photo that came with the news. Nice shot, but does she really have to open her shirt to show us Santa's Little Helpers? Maybe she's trying to distract us from the track list:1. Whatever Happened to ...
They say shouldn't go to the store when you got the munchies. Well the other day I got a 4 pound pack of Red Vines. Man do I love Red Vines. When I savor this treat, I always think of this Aimee Mann song. Great fucking song, my favorite from Bachelor No.2.Btw, I love this pic of Aimee. It's my favorite of hers. She looks like Kate Winslet and little bit like Madchen Amick (circa her days at Tw...
Last night, I got a little emotional as we watched our beloved L.A. Lakers win the NBA Championships. It was actually a full circle moment for me. I remember one December day watching the Lakers and seeing Kobe Bryant struggling on the court and it was mirroring the chaos in my own life. Those times back then were one of the lowest personally for me as it was professionally for Mr. Bryant. Cut ...
