8 years later and still hilarious! Aimee has a grade A sense of humor.
That actor guy just CRUSHED it.
..in a big way.. and the director was a mad man GENIUS ;)
He's the wurst.
@Kolin Timothy Well, he is satirizing the original guy, whose performance was genius. Indeed. 🙂
🍸🍸🍸🍸🪐
@@stopthatimmediately He reminds me a lot of this guy I met in Philly outside a Wawa who was chowing down on a hoagie with peanut chews and kept talking about “‘nem Eagles.”
I love her voice. 100 years from now, people are still gonna listen to her & fall in love.
JON HAMM AND AIMEE MANN...two of my absolute favorite people!
LMAO. That is Jon Hamm? I was going to suggest he would have been perfect....
Not many people can remake their own hit video, 30 years later. Also, Mike is still on drums!
this woman has not aged. she is still as beautiful as she was!
Leslie Lugo she looks 55+ to me.
Still beautiful. Love the song
Amen. She is Super-Human or something.
She’s aged, but in a very good way.
Her music has aged extremely well too I might add. I’m glad she’s still around making music and touring (well not currently cuz of covid) but you know what I mean.
She was smoking hot in the 80's, mid-20's ish and Wiki says she's 60 now...
She can still ROCK the punk hairdo. Aimee Mann is still so stunningly beautiful.
Loved the Ted Leo cameo 😄😄. Definitely should be considered for best-supporting actor.
I loved the wig
I'm almost 33 and just heard Aimee Mann's music. Better late than never, not just saying, but I love this!
If I didn't already m ow John Hamm was tom sharpling I would have believed that it wasn't him. John Hamm is a great actor!
I love the fact that Aimee did this. She is such a good sport! SO funny.
I was there for both shots -- Aimee standing up for her humanity in the crowds in the 80's and now. As a gay man in the 80's it meant everything to me, and I held onto it like a lifeline, and it got me through many painful times when I needed to scream like a champ in the crowd of people telling me to shut down. I liked this time just as much. Science of my emotions..
So you do realize this song is about taking responsibility for your own part in a bad relationship, and that she’s making fun of the inadvertently bad message in Voices Carry?
I know that once at a live show when the audience was requesting Voices Carry she replied “I’ll sooner play Sweet Home Alabama” - before going into a full rendition of Sweet Home Alabama.
Gay or not it makes no difference that we all have to come to terms with the fact that we can break up with a bully any time we want, and that even though we know it’s wrong for someone to devalue their partner, it’s also stupid to stck around for more. Hence her album “I’m With Stupid.”
By making this song and video, Aimee’s abandoning the erroneous message of victimhood and blame for a more realistic position of pragmatic self-observation - which is a better way to look at things if you want a life that’s more worth living.
@@BikewithloveLike fuck you can break up with a bully anytime you want. The whole point of bullying is to strongarm the bullied, in the moment and forever. It is so hard for the bullied to convince themselves that they didn't deserve it, in the moment and forever. That's the point - to impose that burden. Bullies win because they insist on it and box the bullied into it. THAT is what "Voices Carry" is about and I hear no disavowal of it in "Labrador." The latter may be a more adult and baleful reflection on a similar topic, and of course even the bullied must reflect on their own mistakes and atone for them without blaming others. That's maturity, a harmed variety of it but well-earned. Mann even does it with humor and good-humored friends, and good for her. But it in no way erases the pain at the core of the earlier song, which despite the video is clearly not about a romantic relationship. It's about something personal to Mann, but relatable to everyone who has been belittled or battered or both. Fuck any blithe dismissal of any of that.
Ha. I laughed so hard when Aimee starts singing out loud in the concert hall and that girl turns around and scowls just like the elderly woman at the end of the Voices Carry video.
Anybody else come here from "In the Dream House"??
Yes, I'm reading this now and at this part now
Me rn xD
Yesss
How did I miss this seeing this video for the past six years? Aimee has a wicked sense of humor, and this is an outstanding showcase for that.
How did I miss it for the last 10 years?! Lol
Stanley Klubrick, that's great!
I caught that too! Hast rewind to make sure I heard it correctly!
It was 13 years late to colamborate with Klubrick
Aimee you're the real deal. Your songs inspire me to try songwriting. Also, I love your voice. Please keep writing.
I'm glad I lived to see this day :)
Aimee and that braided rattail. Love it!!
Hehe...I saw that and chuckled 😅 30 years ago, she was given a dismissive look for the rattail...today, boyfriend holds a fake one up like he wants her to wear it again! 😂
I couldn’t stop smiling while watching this. This was nearly a shot for shot recreation of the “Voices Carry” video with a twist on the original plot. Here, the guy wanted her to be more “punk” while she wanted to be more normal.
Oh Jon Hamm how I love you. And Aimee is so talented. I loved "Voices Carry."
Just 'rediscovered' Aimee after listening to a 2015 interview. What an admirable human being. Humble and self-possessed. So sorry not to have been a fan all these years. Godspeed, Ms Mann.
Aimee is soooo pretty!
She looks exactly the same with the wig on. Short hair looks good on her. She aged well
This video is GENIUS!
Hands down, the greatest remake of anything ever.
Great song Aimee much love from Zambia
Voices Carry is by far my favorite of the eighties. I didnt know she made more music. I have to say she has a new fan. This an artist who loves the art of music. I am so glad I looked up her music. Keep up the great work.
cheri niemiec Voices Carry wasn't even Til Tuesday's best song
She could sing the ABC song and I'd buy it. She was my first celebrity crush and it's never worn off. It only gets stronger with each song she sings. I love you Aimee!!!!!
Who else’s heart went all a flutter at 4:02 when they saw “The Braid”??!! Fondest memories of Til Tuesday and my youth in the 80’s!! Love you forever Aimee!!
💃❤️🙏🍻
The 80's rat tail!
That's great!!! She looked like she had fun!!!! Loved Til Tuesday and Voices Carry. I really like this song too!!!!
AWESOME!!!! I saw Aimee Mann last night, she was absolutely delightful!
"It was so collamorative."
Awesome video for an awesome song. Between “collamborative” and “Stanley Klubrick”, the start is awesome. Aimee still kicks it!
Jon Hamm! lmao, he's hysterical!
This is great... Saw her at The Ritz in 86...
This has got to be one of the funniest videos I have ever seen.
Bravo!
Funny find Gary Lappier
Absolutely hilarious. So great to see that she's able to poke fun at herself. Great song, too.
Such a beautiful song! Omg I never get tired of hearing it! And the video on top of that, just amazing and brilliant! I remember watching the original video for voices carry so many times on MTV
This so cool. My favorite part was the guitarist in the studio having the same hairdo and expression as in VC.
CRYING with laughter. Oh God, Aimee, you are the best.
I luv her bass playing.
Very impressed with all the notes you can hit, Aimee.
She's 53.
Talk about good genes, she looks incredible!
2:45 God, she is so stunning! And funny! I love the intro sketch.
Fell in Love with RUSH thanks to her and her back up on vocals on TIME STAND STILL!!!! Thanks Aimee. been a fan ever since
I smiled so damn hard, when seeing that it was a remake of 'Voices Carry', ah!
The song is beautiful written as the rest! Thank you Aimee!
I definitely love your music, keep 'em coming!
at 3:40 - "What happened? Practice run late?" Maybe its because I'm old and I remember the Voices Carry video, but I nearly pee'd!! :))
It's missing the over-aspirated "hhhhhobby" of the original though
This is brilliant!!
Stunning song!
I came here for the video, but now I dont care at all. This song is fantastic.
Great to see there's still some good music out there.
Great video!! Somewhere Lisa Loeb is bumping into things....
Hysterical!!! Nice tune as well!!!
The part where she slips back into her Til Tuesday hairdo to please her boyfriend is HILARIOUS.
That was totally cool! Loved the "Voices Carry" theme. Great new song.
Okay, I just HAD to do one of those experiment things that those of us on TH-cam just HAS to do sometimes and decided to see just how well synched "Labrador" is with "Voices Carry"...What I did was take this video and skip past the BTS bits to pause it at the start, muted the audio and then queued up the video for "Voices Carry" in a separate window, starting both at the same time and hiding "Voices Carry" behind "Labrador", so that I am watching the video for "Labrador" but hearing the audio for "Voices Carry".
"Labrador" is a bit shorter than "Voices Carry", which means that the video had to be shortened a bit. This becomes obvious once you hit the second refrain...this is the scene where the boyfriend tries to take away her guitar and she snatches it back and storms off down the sidewalk. "Voices Carry" has this scene last long enough that she is storming down the sidewalk at the same time that the line "Hush Hush, keep it down now, voices carry" is sung for the third time. "Labrador" shortens this scene significantly, so that she is already hot-footing it down the sidewalk when that line has been sung just once. The syncing of both videos falls apart at this point, with the result being that "Voices Carry" is still playing for several seconds after "Labrador" is finished.
If someone with decent editing skills could find a good way to lengthen that one scene out, it's possible that "Labrador's" video could be mixed with the audio for "Voices Carry" and create the PERFECT tribute for that song, a song which put Aimee Mann on the map...assuming anyone is willing to try?
This just saved me about 3 hours
Mann has a great sense of humor.
Lol he told me I was signing his nephew's Birthday card xD
I totally ❤ Aimee Mann & i always will!!😌👍 She totally 🎸 rocks!!!
Very nice to know that she has a great sense of Humor about her Past.and her bringing back the Til Tuesday wig was perfect
Cool! Love both versions❤
This is tragically hysterical. I have a sneaky feeling there is a lot of truth in this video.
this will sound so great on vinyl!
"I'm basically here to crush."
Same
😝😍😍
Word for word my comment....bro!

I love this video! Aimee's voice is as awesome as ever. The music sounds good too. :)
Daisy, you
Shouldn’t do the things you do
But you’re just, so incapable of changing
Your lie so well
I could never even tell
What were facts, in your artful rearranging
But I came back for more
I know after my face in the wrong you did
'Cause I’m a Labrador
And I run when the gun drops the dove again
We first met, I was grant to be your pet
Like a loud I want side but we call blazing
But fetching you sticks
Was the best the hand for sticks
You got bored, you got mad and you got crazy
I get back for more
And you laughed in my face and you in
'Cause I’m a Labrador,
And I run when the gun drops the dove again
Daisy, daisy, give me your answer
Daisy, daisy, duke
Remember good old how she waited at the stairs for you
Daisy, I could almost feel the tear
But let’s shine, in the time we have remaining
You’re 12 out, but a dog is just a pound
And believe me my dear I’m not complaining
'Cause I came back for more
'Cause I knew that you’ve done
The best you could
I’m a Labrador, and it’s me, who could see
That was understood
I come back for more
Daisy, daisy, duke
'Cause I’m a Labrador
Yeah I come back for more
I’m a Labrador
Do, do, do, do, do, do.
