Well, it didn't go on too much longer *AFTER* that, so he probably got some solace and piece of mind from that.

It didn't?

I haven't seen the video in ages, but this is a good idea for a thread!

I hear she gets all pissed off if you bring up the tail. How pathetic, she should be proud of her new wave past! God, I hate the White Spider.

There's a scene where he's reading her lyrics and he gets this look of complete disgust - it's beautiful. Little did he know what P.T. Anderson had in store for him...

Well, `Til Tuesday didn't.

Why couldn't she once do something for him?

― kornrulez6969, Saturday, 10 November 2007 21:53 (eighteen years ago)

I knew a local rapper who had the line "my voice is gonna carry like Aimee Mann"

it's a good joke and i haven't liked the songs i like by her enough to chase down more, but i still feel like gasping "you...monster!" at the thread subject.

― da croupier, Tuesday, 18 September 2012 23:58 (fourteen years ago)

this song makes me fucking cry it is so sad

― Inconceivable (to the entire world) (underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have owned), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 00:00 (fourteen years ago)

Amusing, but Aimee did a better riff on the video back during her and Michael's 2000 co-tour when they'd act out the "why don't you for once do something FOR ME?!" bit on stage during the song.

the new one, not "voices carry"

― Inconceivable (to the entire world) (underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have owned), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 00:00 (fourteen years ago)

Voices Carry was never more devastating, though, than when it was used in the opening credit scene of Tom Noonan's now forgotten "What Happened Was."

I remember that film but forgot the song.

i haven't forgotten that movie!

also, the video for this song is inarguably poorly executed, though not really poorly conceived. the last bit -- where she gradually starts singing in the theater -- is a great conceit, and powerful.

― espring (amateurist), Thursday, 8 May 2014 02:58 (twelve years ago)

seems like the found the guy who plays the boyfriend on muscle beach or something
