Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. This song was Aimee Mann's only real hit, recorded with her band 'Til Tuesday.

Answer: Voices Carry

Voices Carry was a number one hit for Til Tuesday in 1985.

2. How many Albums did she complete with Til Tuesday?

Answer: 3

She recorded three albums with that band. The first was Voices Carry, the follow up was Welcome Home and the final one, really a Til Tuesday album in name only was called Everything's Different Now.

3. Which musician is Aimee Mann married to?

Answer: Michael Penn

Aimee is married to musician Michael Penn, who is probably best known for his single 'No Myth'.

4. Which famous musician Co-Wrote two songs with Aimee: 'The Other End of the Telescope' and 'Fall Of The World's Own Optimist'?

Answer: Elvis Costello

Elvis Costello co-wrote the songs with her. Telescope was released on the last Til Tuesday album in 1989. Optimist was released on her 1999 release Bachelor no. 2. Costello also re-recorded Telescope, with altered lyrics, for his 1996 album 'All This Useless Beauty'.

5. Which album was her first Solo album, released in 1993?

Answer: Whatever

Whatever, with the strong single 'I Should've Known' was the first album. I'm With Stupid appeared in 1995. Magnolia was a soundtrack released in 1998. Bachelor no. 2 was released on her web site in 1999 and in record stores in 2000.

6. Which single from I'm With Stupid was given a boost by appearing on the Melrose Place soundtrack?

Answer: That's Just What You Are

That's Just What You Are was one of her most poplular singles from her solo career. 'What's the Matter With the truth did I offend your ears?'

7. Magnolia and Bachelor no. 2 share several tracks in common. Which one of those tracks appears as an instrumental on Magnolia, but has lyrics on Bachelor?

Answer: Nothing Is Good Enough

All interesting overlaps between the two. I believe this came about because she had a deal for the Magnolia Soundtrack, but had no firm record deal for Bachelor. This, of course, changed with the oscar nomination and Bachelor no. 2 was finally released to the public via record stores.

8. Til Tuesday wasn't Aimee's First band. What was the name of the group she sang for and made an EP with in 1982?

Answer: Young Snakes

Young Snakes was the band. The one track I've heard from them featured Aimee singing something that sounded like Gwen Stefani on a very high dose of crack.

Answer: Red Vines

This is from Bachelor no. 2's Red Vines, one of my favourite songs.

10. Which one of these people was not a member of Til Tuesday?

Answer: Jon Brion

Jon Brion co-wrote and produced quite a bit of her solo material, but he was not part of Til Tuesday.
