Aimee Mann - Queens of the Summer Hotel (1 Viewer)

[Samanta TinAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

I really really HATE 'You Could Have Been A Roosevelt' on first listen

I had to turn it off even though it's only two minutes long

 

[Cerro de Casa]

I like it! It's so Magnolia / Bachelor No. 2 era

It even has echoes of the WHATEVER album

 

[BoysForSeles]

On first listen I like it but don't love it. It's a bit like Mental Illness crossed with the songs from Magnolia. So I get the concept. But I think I need some time with it.

It’s always more time with Aimee for it to unveil itself. Bachelor No2 and Lost In Space took quite a while with me, now they are two of my all time fave albums by anyone.

When I went into the record shop just now they had 3 cds. When I left there were none (yes, I only bought one). #soldout

Omg the BfS book of stats! Alt gay internet charts are lit!

I bought Aimee, Tori, ABBA (vinyl and cd), Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s book and a pair of jeans. It was a closing time gay flurry.

Skinny jeans I hope hun?

The album grows on each listen for me. ‘In Mexico’ is starting to push herself front and centre. The album charted at #53 on the Album Sales Chart.

I’m really struggling with this album

 

[Samanta TinAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

I’m really struggling with this album

SAME and I desperately wanted to LOVE IT.

That said some songs are STUNNING, just as a whole it's a bit much and THEATRICAL for my personal taste.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

I’m really struggling with this album

Me too

 

[FetchFugly]

There are songs I enjoy individually but as a whole the album leaves me a little cold, in particular some of the arrangements.

I think the run from Burn It Out to the end is probably the most consistent part of it.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Okay, it's starting to click. I think.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

OK so this has now clicked and clicked majorly. I SAY!

 

[Cerro de Casa]

HOME BY NOW is officially the 17th best song of all time.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

It reminds me so much of Whatever! The Queen Of Pop's transatlantic multiplatinum album on the alt gay '90s shart.

‘I See You’

 

[Cerro de Casa]

I love this song so much

 

[BoysForSeles]

“Now you’re split in two
And each side still isn’t you
And you know how that sounds
But it keeps being true”

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Apparently my vinyl's been dispatched but I'll believe it when I see it.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

In the meantime I'm enjoying Bachelor No. 2 OR The Last Remains Of The Dodo on this Christmas Eve.

[Cerro de Casa]

This album has clicked majorly with me - mostly because I was reading Girl, Interrupted while listening to it on repeat.
Ugh so good.

Home by Now (2022 Remix) - no. 12 (with a bullet) on the Suedey alt gay chart!

There couldn’t possibly be 11 other songs better than anything by Grammy award winner Aimee Mann.

Grammy award winning pop genius Aimee Mann has endorsed this fan made video for the sublime ‘Burn It Out’.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

I'm so addicted to this album
& Queen Aimee
in general at the moment



There is a girl
Up in her bed
BLADE against her skin
I SEE YOU.
