Aimee Mann writes the most rational songs. Her thought processes are so logical, yet poignant. She writes the way you wish you could think when you're too busy being a mopey wreck. "Thirty One Today", off the wonderfully titled @#%&*! Smilers is the kind anthem that is sadly all too relatable:
Called some guy I knew
Had a drink or two
And we fumbled as the day grew dark
I pretended that I felt a spark
I thought my life would be different somehow
I thought my life would be better by now
But it's not and I don't know where to turn
Thirty One Today - Aimee Mann
17 August 2008
I'm only 23 yet the sentiment rings true.
