Film At 11: Aimee Mann

If all those obnoxious Christmas covers playing nonstop at the mall are making you want to blow your brains out, then Aimee Mann's 2006 album, One More Drifter In The Snow (SuperEgo), will feel like a breath of fresh air. It's filled with beautiful renditions of the classics (including a duet with Grant-Lee Phillips on "You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch"), plus two original compositions. Here's Mann performing "Calling On Mary" live on KCRW. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMYOUeknzMw&feature=related[/youtube]
