8 years later and still hilarious! Aimee has a grade A sense of humor.
That actor guy just CRUSHED it.
..in a big way.. and the director was a mad man GENIUS ;)
He's the wurst.
@Kolin Timothy Well, he is satirizing the original guy, whose performance was genius. Indeed. 🙂
🍸🍸🍸🍸🪐
@@stopthatimmediately He reminds me a lot of this guy I met in Philly outside a Wawa who was chowing down on a hoagie with peanut chews and kept talking about “‘nem Eagles.”
I love her voice. 100 years from now, people are still gonna listen to her & fall in love.
Aimee is soooo pretty!
JON HAMM AND AIMEE MANN...two of my absolute favorite people!
LMAO. That is Jon Hamm? I was going to suggest he would have been perfect....
She can still ROCK the punk hairdo. Aimee Mann is still so stunningly beautiful.
I was there for both shots -- Aimee standing up for her humanity in the crowds in the 80's and now. As a gay man in the 80's it meant everything to me, and I held onto it like a lifeline, and it got me through many painful times when I needed to scream like a champ in the crowd of people telling me to shut down. I liked this time just as much. Science of my emotions..
So you do realize this song is about taking responsibility for your own part in a bad relationship, and that she’s making fun of the inadvertently bad message in Voices Carry?
I know that once at a live show when the audience was requesting Voices Carry she replied “I’ll sooner play Sweet Home Alabama” - before going into a full rendition of Sweet Home Alabama.
Gay or not it makes no difference that we all have to come to terms with the fact that we can break up with a bully any time we want, and that even though we know it’s wrong for someone to devalue their partner, it’s also stupid to stck around for more. Hence her album “I’m With Stupid.”
By making this song and video, Aimee’s abandoning the erroneous message of victimhood and blame for a more realistic position of pragmatic self-observation - which is a better way to look at things if you want a life that’s more worth living.
@@BikewithloveLike fuck you can break up with a bully anytime you want. The whole point of bullying is to strongarm the bullied, in the moment and forever. It is so hard for the bullied to convince themselves that they didn't deserve it, in the moment and forever. That's the point - to impose that burden. Bullies win because they insist on it and box the bullied into it. THAT is what "Voices Carry" is about and I hear no disavowal of it in "Labrador." The latter may be a more adult and baleful reflection on a similar topic, and of course even the bullied must reflect on their own mistakes and atone for them without blaming others. That's maturity, a harmed variety of it but well-earned. Mann even does it with humor and good-humored friends, and good for her. But it in no way erases the pain at the core of the earlier song, which despite the video is clearly not about a romantic relationship. It's about something personal to Mann, but relatable to everyone who has been belittled or battered or both. Fuck any blithe dismissal of any of that.
Loved the Ted Leo cameo 😄😄. Definitely should be considered for best-supporting actor.
Song crushes me. This year more than most. So beautiful.
Yeah…
Not many people can remake their own hit video, 30 years later. Also, Mike is still on drums!
this woman has not aged. she is still as beautiful as she was!
Leslie Lugo she looks 55+ to me.
Still beautiful. Love the song
Amen. She is Super-Human or something.
She’s aged, but in a very good way.
Her music has aged extremely well too I might add. I’m glad she’s still around making music and touring (well not currently cuz of covid) but you know what I mean.
She was smoking hot in the 80's, mid-20's ish and Wiki says she's 60 now...
Such a hilarious video and still a brilliant songwriter.
I love the fact that Aimee did this. She is such a good sport! SO funny.
If I didn't already m ow John Hamm was tom sharpling I would have believed that it wasn't him. John Hamm is a great actor!
I couldn’t stop smiling while watching this. This was nearly a shot for shot recreation of the “Voices Carry” video with a twist on the original plot. Here, the guy wanted her to be more “punk” while she wanted to be more normal.
😂😂😂 LOVE IT. Love the song Labrador too.
How did I miss this seeing this video for the past six years? Aimee has a wicked sense of humor, and this is an outstanding showcase for that.
How did I miss it for the last 10 years?! Lol
I'm almost 33 and just heard Aimee Mann's music. Better late than never, not just saying, but I love this!
Who else’s heart went all a flutter at 4:02 when they saw “The Braid”??!! Fondest memories of Til Tuesday and my youth in the 80’s!! Love you forever Aimee!!
💃❤️🙏🍻
The 80's rat tail!
Ha. I laughed so hard when Aimee starts singing out loud in the concert hall and that girl turns around and scowls just like the elderly woman at the end of the Voices Carry video.
Awesome video for an awesome song. Between “collamborative” and “Stanley Klubrick”, the start is awesome. Aimee still kicks it!
Great song Aimee much love from Zambia
Aimee and that braided rattail. Love it!!
Hehe...I saw that and chuckled 😅 30 years ago, she was given a dismissive look for the rattail...today, boyfriend holds a fake one up like he wants her to wear it again! 😂
I loved the wig
Stanley Klubrick, that's great!
I caught that too! Hast rewind to make sure I heard it correctly!
It was 13 years late to colamborate with Klubrick
This is great... Saw her at The Ritz in 86...
I'm glad I lived to see this day :)
Just 'rediscovered' Aimee after listening to a 2015 interview. What an admirable human being. Humble and self-possessed. So sorry not to have been a fan all these years. Godspeed, Ms Mann.
Oh Jon Hamm how I love you. And Aimee is so talented. I loved "Voices Carry."
Aimee you're the real deal. Your songs inspire me to try songwriting. Also, I love your voice. Please keep writing.
Hands down, the greatest remake of anything ever.
Absolutely hilarious. So great to see that she's able to poke fun at herself. Great song, too.
This has got to be one of the funniest videos I have ever seen.
Bravo!
Funny find Gary Lappier
This video is GENIUS!
😂😂😂 Genius video!!! GREAT SONG!!!! Aimee always delivers!!!
Voices Carry is by far my favorite of the eighties. I didnt know she made more music. I have to say she has a new fan. This an artist who loves the art of music. I am so glad I looked up her music. Keep up the great work.
cheri niemiec Voices Carry wasn't even Til Tuesday's best song
CRYING with laughter. Oh God, Aimee, you are the best.
2:45 God, she is so stunning! And funny! I love the intro sketch.
at 3:40 - "What happened? Practice run late?" Maybe its because I'm old and I remember the Voices Carry video, but I nearly pee'd!! :))
It's missing the over-aspirated "hhhhhobby" of the original though
Stunning song!
Fell in Love with RUSH thanks to her and her back up on vocals on TIME STAND STILL!!!! Thanks Aimee. been a fan ever since
Great video!! Somewhere Lisa Loeb is bumping into things....
"Colamborating"...LOL This was gold.
AWESOME!!!! I saw Aimee Mann last night, she was absolutely delightful!
I luv her bass playing.
That's great!!! She looked like she had fun!!!! Loved Til Tuesday and Voices Carry. I really like this song too!!!!
This so cool. My favorite part was the guitarist in the studio having the same hairdo and expression as in VC.
I'll always love her.
She could sing the ABC song and I'd buy it. She was my first celebrity crush and it's never worn off. It only gets stronger with each song she sings. I love you Aimee!!!!!
I smiled so damn hard, when seeing that it was a remake of 'Voices Carry', ah!
The song is beautiful written as the rest! Thank you Aimee!
I definitely love your music, keep 'em coming!
How did I not know about this until now????
Very impressed with all the notes you can hit, Aimee.
Aimee, you have art beyond time and space
Such a beautiful song! Omg I never get tired of hearing it! And the video on top of that, just amazing and brilliant! I remember watching the original video for voices carry so many times on MTV
Hysterical!!! Nice tune as well!!!
That was totally cool! Loved the "Voices Carry" theme. Great new song.
This is brilliant!!
Great to see there's still some good music out there.
I totally ❤ Aimee Mann & i always will!!😌👍 She totally 🎸 rocks!!!
Jon Hamm! lmao, he's hysterical!
Okay, I just HAD to do one of those experiment things that those of us on RUclips just HAS to do sometimes and decided to see just how well synched "Labrador" is with "Voices Carry"...What I did was take this video and skip past the BTS bits to pause it at the start, muted the audio and then queued up the video for "Voices Carry" in a separate window, starting both at the same time and hiding "Voices Carry" behind "Labrador", so that I am watching the video for "Labrador" but hearing the audio for "Voices Carry".
"Labrador" is a bit shorter than "Voices Carry", which means that the video had to be shortened a bit. This becomes obvious once you hit the second refrain...this is the scene where the boyfriend tries to take away her guitar and she snatches it back and storms off down the sidewalk. "Voices Carry" has this scene last long enough that she is storming down the sidewalk at the same time that the line "Hush Hush, keep it down now, voices carry" is sung for the third time. "Labrador" shortens this scene significantly, so that she is already hot-footing it down the sidewalk when that line has been sung just once. The syncing of both videos falls apart at this point, with the result being that "Voices Carry" is still playing for several seconds after "Labrador" is finished.
If someone with decent editing skills could find a good way to lengthen that one scene out, it's possible that "Labrador's" video could be mixed with the audio for "Voices Carry" and create the PERFECT tribute for that song, a song which put Aimee Mann on the map...assuming anyone is willing to try?
This just saved me about 3 hours
Very nice to know that she has a great sense of Humor about her Past.and her bringing back the Til Tuesday wig was perfect
She's 53.
Talk about good genes, she looks incredible!
Daisy, you
Shouldn’t do the things you do
But you’re just, so incapable of changing
Your lie so well
I could never even tell
What were facts, in your artful rearranging
But I came back for more
I know after my face in the wrong you did
'Cause I’m a Labrador
And I run when the gun drops the dove again
We first met, I was grant to be your pet
Like a loud I want side but we call blazing
But fetching you sticks
Was the best the hand for sticks
You got bored, you got mad and you got crazy
I get back for more
And you laughed in my face and you in
'Cause I’m a Labrador,
And I run when the gun drops the dove again
Daisy, daisy, give me your answer
Daisy, daisy, duke
Remember good old how she waited at the stairs for you
Daisy, I could almost feel the tear
But let’s shine, in the time we have remaining
You’re 12 out, but a dog is just a pound
And believe me my dear I’m not complaining
'Cause I came back for more
'Cause I knew that you’ve done
The best you could
I’m a Labrador, and it’s me, who could see
That was understood
I come back for more
Daisy, daisy, duke
'Cause I’m a Labrador
Yeah I come back for more
I’m a Labrador
Do, do, do, do, do, do.
That this song didn't blow up in the mainstream charts is an absolute crime. ❤
She looks exactly the same with the wig on. Short hair looks good on her. She aged well
This is tragically hysterical. I have a sneaky feeling there is a lot of truth in this video.
And looking damn good for it.
Aimee is talented and beautiful
The part where she slips back into her Til Tuesday hairdo to please her boyfriend is HILARIOUS.
Aimee I love all your glasses! you all look beautiful!!!!
Brilliant video Aimee! Sorry I'm going to miss you in San Francisco!
I'm a little sad that I didn't revisit Aimee Mann's music sooner than I did.
She's so nice
this will sound so great on vinyl!
She’s so good with physical comedy, I love how she parodies her awkward deer-in-headlights demeanor from the original video. It’s juuuuust exaggerated enough to be hilarious
I love this video! Aimee's voice is as awesome as ever. The music sounds good too. :)
the new album is fantastic !!!!!
Mann has a great sense of humor.
This video was very unique. Aminee Mann has an extradinary voice. I love it.!!!
I enjoy the ridiculousness of this all. Great song. ty 💌
I don't always listen to entire songs on You Tube. On this one I did. I have the Til Tuesday compilation album on my ipod. Aimee Mann has a great and distinctive voice. I enjoyed this song.
This is the best thing Tom's ever done...
It's funny I am kind of obsessed with the song Voices Carry. I take the liberty of covering it when I play out. And really what cool and clever follow up. I know this song Labrador was a while ago, but if you watch the two videos, one after the other it's really funny. Just another reason to enjoy being an Aimee Mann fan. And Ted Leo...is that a wig?
I saw Aimee perform at the Egyptian in Boise last year...a great night!

Beautiful , so 80s video
Took me a while. Jon Hamm. Heard this song on some mountain town and it went straight to my YT music playlist.
I came here for the video, but now I dont care at all. This song is fantastic.
From a brilliant writer comes another brilliant song, Aimee Mann, You Crush it ALL the time. Id love to be your Labrador................xoxoxo
Classic Aimee Mann! Awesome song and video.
Her 'Til Tuesday wig is awesome :D
Great song! Never change it's a little Celtic and I just love this song
Nicely done! Now I must look for the the original and do a frame-by-frame Zapruderesque comparison.
I just saw this....I love this video....I love Aimee , she so beautiful,,,her songwriting is so perfect and right on....
Hilarious video and a great song. I love you, Aimee Mann. Please never stop making music!
The 2012 music video for "Labrador", the second single from her album Charmer, features a satirical shot-for-shot remake of "Voices Carry" video within the framing device of Mann having been forced to shoot the video after inadvertently signing complete control of the video over to director Tom Scharpling. The video features Jon Wurster as the Wall Street boyfriend, Jon Hamm as Scharpling, and Ted Leo in a cameo
This is priceless!!
Yay the albums is here !!
Unbelievably Awesome!!!
