Yes, me too! I cannot adequately express how moving I find that album. The film is wonderful but it really puts me through an emotional wringer and so I've only ever watched it twice! But the album, the music that inspired the film...ah, I know it. It's bound to my bones. Aimee Mann is one of the best - and most consistently so - singer songwriters we've yet seen.

Ever so often as I walk through some store or public space I'll catch the first few opening notes of Coming up close. Instantly I am transported back to the moment in my life where I was so in love that everything stung. I will want to run from the memory of how I lost that half of my soul, but rather I just choke back a tear and let that smile slowly creep across my face and walk on before somebody notices the distress this old man is in. Thank you Robin, I really do cherish the moments that song brings back, stinging or not.

@@JM06261996 she’s comparing life to amusement rides. Both Ferris wheels and roller coasters have highs and lows. One is a predictable motion and the other chaotic. Even though the destination is the same, they take different routes to get there. When reminiscing about your life, you filter your experiences based on your biases. Some see the past through rose colored glasses, finding comfort and predictably. Some have to bob and weave through troubles and hardships. I haven’t had it easy, and when I look back, the cynical part of me rewrites history, maybe unfairly. Others might gloss over the tough times and paint the past as a golden age. So when you “conjure that year”, you apply the magic that suits you. Like the engineer that creates the ride you’re on, you might be manufacturing the destination to suit you. This is why the angel warns you that you’re making it worse. Lying to yourself is the easiest of follies. Folly or flight. She’s making an appeal to be honest to yourself. And if you catch yourself in a lie, hopefully be charitable.

@JM6261996 I think Aimee means the other person in the relationship was just pretending to be in love with her friend who endured being left at the alter. It was as if the person who orchestrated, or engineered, being genuinely in love when s/he never was. This was done very comvincingly without her friend seeing the other person wasn't in love with her friend until he non- chalantly just didn't show up to get married to Aimee's friend. That's my understanding of the lyrics which is based on an introduction to the song in which she explained the inspiration for the song. Best,

When i was in the Army at Ft. Bragg back many yrs ago, this girl came to fruition, in a band called Til Tuesday. One day my buddies came to my offfice and said, Sarge, ya got to listen to this band called Til Tuesday!!!! I did and boy was i hooked on this Aimee Mann from the git go. I didnt know what she looked like until i saw her album. Needless to say i was mesmerized by her looks and those Ice Blue eyes. This girl could sing, play instruments and command an audience. I went to a concert and i was surprised that i actually got to meet her. She is Tall as i am. 6 feet at least. strong handshake, and wow, those looks and those eyes. I have and always will be a fan of her music and her great talent. She is timeless. She has a wit that is razor sharp. She gave me a hug and thanked me for the support i gave her. Very humble individual she is. One of a kind.

In 1985 I played at a Rockfest Til Tuesday also played at in Providence RI but didn't get the chance to see her, I wanted to congratulate her on her success at that time! I was thrilled to see her rise way back in the 80s and her continued growth as a singer-songwriter! So all these years later, many many years later ... I just want to say congratulations Aimee!! You are definitely a true artist!! Looking forward to more great music for many years!!
