from her album "Bachelor No. 2 or, the Last Remains of the Dodo", 1999. i always wanna hire a band so i could sing this song~ more aimee www.aimeemann.com preciousthings....
Perfection! Bachelor definitely on my top 10 greatest ever list. I remember expecting to be a bit let down when that came out only because I couldn't imagine 3 albums in a row at that level of greatness and then Bam, 1st listen classic! Thanks Aimee! Love the Beatlesque tone of the fills in this one too.
Aimee Mann is brilliant! I just found out that Grant Lee Phillips collaborated with her on Bachelor No.2 It's no wonder why this is one of my favorite albums of hers:)
I never heard of this chic until I was watching the public broadcasting station and they were doing a special on a concert she did at infinity hall. Was pretty impressed.
I can't do it, I can't conceive You're everything you're trying to make me believe 'Cause this show is too well designed Too well to be held with only me in mind And how, how am I different? How, how am I different? How, how am I different? I can't do it, so move along Do you really want to wait until I prove you wrong? And don't tell me, let me guess I could change it all around if I would just say yes But how, how am I different? How, how am I different? How, how am I different? And just one question before I pack When you fuck it up later, do I get my money back? I can't do it, and as for you Can you in good conscience even ask me to? 'Cause what do you care about the great divide As long as you come down on the winner's side? And how, how am I different? How, how am I different? How, how am I different? (Different) Different (Different) Different (Different) And just one question before I pack When you fuck it up later, do I get my money back? (Do I get my money back?) Just one question before I pack When you fuck it up later, do I get my money back? (Do I get my money back?) Just one question before I pack When you fuck it up later, do I get my money back? (Do I get my money back?)
Paul (the bass player) sounds great with Aimee. He's got a song called "Can't Keep A Good Man Down" that I hope gets released one of these days. Michael Lockwood on guitar (man of the hats!) is awesome here too as are Jebin (keys) and John (drums). The great thing about Aimee is that anyone she works with is great in their own right. Paul's got a song called "Can't Keep A Good Man Down" that I'm hoping gets released one of these days. Heard it live one time and I never forgot it.
One thing that makes me curious is the arrangement. This song is totally brilliant and then made all the more so because of how it's arranged. Composition and arrangement both by Ms. Mann?
Might be ten years too late on this, but Jon Brion had a lot to do with the arrangement of the entire album. Dude is a genius in his own right, worked a lot with Elliott Smith.
Professional concert footage is so frustrating. 90% of it is ridiculous footage I don't care about and there are so many cuts every few seconds; can I just watch the band play? It's almost designed in a way to shove in your face the fact that you couldn't make it to the show ...
Great song. The guitarist on the right looks like an English geezer from the 1980s totally out of place in that band. Not great either normally her lead guitar players are razor sharp
Aimee Mann is one and only certified genius of contemporary music.
Aimee has a beautiful voice, charisma, talent, a complete artist. One the best songwriters of our time
Her lyrics are the best, and the way she combines them with her chords is masterful and beautiful. Not to mention she has great pipes.

In such a dreamy, pleasant song, it's always so jarring when that 1st f-bomb flies. Keeps you from getting too complacent as a listener.
Love it
This is one of my all time favorite Amiee Mann songs
Gorgeous voice, gorgeous woman. I hope to see her live one day. Thanx for posting.
pure aimee greatness right there
I used to have the bachelor#2 cd and I moved and lost it and forgot how amazing she is. Her voice is awesome.
Aimee Mann is brilliant! I just found out that Grant Lee Phillips collaborated with her on Bachelor No.2 It's no wonder why this is one of my favorite albums of hers:)
I really like her voice
She's great. Been lucky enough to have seen her play a half dozen times since the late nineties. She's got it all.
Simply epic. Aimee Mann, one of the greatest songwriting geniuses of our time.....or any time, for that matter.
timeless!! Love Love Love it!

Thank you for posting! Aimee is... my siren for intelligent, contemporary fused rock/pop/folk.
That was the best Band Lineup...Lockwood you totally rocked dude!!!!!
amazing song!
Aimee Mann's Bachelor No. 2 is best all-round rock album since Beatles' Sgt. Pepper.
One of the two artist against whom i've never committed an act of piracy in my whole life
"I like her so much I didn't even steal from her". What kind of low expectation life do you lead?
Love you aimee.😍 a lot.
GIRLS

Esto sí es música y no mamadas, I hope one day yoy dare to come to Mexico, Aimee.

Classy gal
Great Beatles chords
That was good
i wish the bass player singing would shut up so we could here more aimee
@kvn8907 No longer in Aimee Mann's site, where can I watch it? Nice animation!
GIRLS
She is hot as hell!
Just a few instruments but it made the stage look very full.
Whatever happened to this drummer? Why doesn't he play with her anymore?
+SharP- SnipingClan Do you always talk to people like this, or just on TH-cam?
@cheerbear237 Then check out Jane Siberry, same thing.
You are funny!!!
@Brianbellew
haha
