I'm old and therefore the music that I listen to is not going to appeal to those who live for the dance versions of whatever song is popular at the bowling alley on teen night.
I do, however, think that if the young 'uns took the time to sit down and listen to an entire Aimee Mann album (and I mean album, the kind like they used to have where all the songs lead into one another to tell a specific story) they might come away with an appreciation for music that does not revolve around auto-tune.
So why do I think Aimee Mann should be the gateway drug for better musical options?
Well, frankly, this 52-year-old woman not only has one of the greatest, melodic voices known to mankind, and she has an incredible sense of geekiness (she had a guest spot in Buffy the Vampire Slayer) and knows how to make a fucking music video that doesn't include back-up dancers.
So there.
Here's her newest song Soon Enough off the album Charmer which I believe illustrates my point nicely.
