Aimee Mann first came on the scene with her 80's band 'Til Tuesday' who were very successful with their debut album 'Voices carry'. However, it was her solo career that won me over. Her first three albums were all great... actually, I think she improved on each of the albums to a career high with the release of 'Bachelor No.2'. She also contributed to the 'Magnolia' soundtrack, with about eight songs... some of which were also on 'Bachelor No.2'. One song that was on the soundtrack only was "One" which is Nilsson cover and she practically makes it her own. It is hauntingly beautiful and certainly added something to the movie. The video featured below is an amateur video made for the song (it is Aimee Mann's version, but not her in the video) which is based on Roman Polanski's movie Repulsion.... and being the Francophile I am, I have seen and enjoyed that movie as well. The ultimate combo... yeah sure, upsize that!
