Where is til tuesday

In , fashion was dominated by Madonna. Madonna had a kind of gothy Catholic school girl look, which was greatly imitated. Aimee Mann had sort of big-hair boys cut, which was also highly fashionable. Many high school girls cut their hair short, with the spiky style evolving into a comb-over in the next few years. Even many rebellious men had the spiky haircuts, with members of The Cure being the most notable.

The following is a history of 'Til Tuesday from Wikipedia:. Their original composition Love in a Vacuum credited to all members of the group received a fair amount of airplay on the station, and the group was eventually signed to Epic Records.

Love in a Vacuum was re-recorded for the Epic debut album, 's Voices Carry ; however, the breakthrough song turned out to be the title track.

The Voices Carry single peaked at number eight on the U. Billboard Hot , and is said to have been inspired by an argument between Mann and Hausman, who had broken off a relationship before the album's release. According to producer Mike Thorne in his Stereo Society web site, "the title track was originally written and sung by Aimee as if to a woman The record was already done, and once again … I think this is the case with every label, probably for every artist, from the dawn of time.

Because I thought that was a very poppy song. There was a lot of pressure from Geffen to stay on the road.

And every day would be filled up. Mind if we run through some of the songs? MANN: Sure. It almost has this very fluid, almost jazz guitar [that] I think Jon is playing, which really ties everything together.

His sense of melody is so fantastic. His solos are fantastic. I remember teaching myself how to play them because I was trying to become a better guitar player. It specifies who plays what solos, and it says the last one on that song is you. He was very encouraging in that way. He was so hard on himself. I saw him play, just this acoustic thing.

He was part of a show with a bunch of people. And he came out and he played their very first single. People were just starting to talk about them a little bit in England.

His sense of melody, I felt, was very much like mine. So, of course, I — because I was living in England alone and I was lonely — I developed a big crush on him. He played guitar on that song, too. It was right after he quit Suede. I made the lyrics about that. People were calling him difficult. Who knows? MANN: Well, once again, there was a label thing. A bunch of labels were being acquired by Interscope. MANN: He was talking about Sheryl Crow and how her last record was a big disappointment that sold a million and a half records.

It had been been finished for a while. My brother saw you at Lilith Fair in and he bought an early version of the record that was like seven-track EP. We had just printed up an EP, and the Magnolia thing was happening. The Magnolia soundtrack came out on Warner Bros. It was written at the same — Paul and I were friends and we were just writing stuff together.

I would write something playful, and then he would talk to me about the movie, and I would write stuff. We were influenced by the same things. Previously the song appeared on the Jerry Maguire soundtrack, but did it actually even appear in the movie?

MANN: I think the thing about Paul is … part of what he was influenced by, in general, is that people are not recognizing things that he thinks are good. And I think he felt like that was kind of an underdog situation and it made him kind of mad, maybe. It was in every commercial for it. On paper, though, that scene might read a bit strangely. When I saw it, though, it was so stirring. And I think part of why it works is how far in it you are when watching that movie.

One of the things that movie does really well is it makes the real seem surreal and the surreal seem normal. I had always toured a lot. I had always played — and continued to play — shows, and I think it just felt like … I definitely felt an increase in how people took me more seriously instead of [seeing me as] one of a number of singer-songwriters. It was just a real influx of energy. MANN: That was my most successful record because I was able to sell it myself and not have to try to get the record label to do its job.

My manager and I just hired PR and hired radio people and that record did really well. I think that was a substitute for having a record label that cared.

As tumultuous as they were, the music you made in this period is really seminal and influential. MANN: Aw, thank you. Romantic Sad Sentimental. Sexy Trippy All Moods. Drinking Hanging Out In Love.
