The greatest song ever not awarded with an Oscar. Shame on you Academy! Thanks forever Aimee! ❤️

[@dbaser687]

And Elliott Smith's "Miss Misery"

[@bigbenigs]

One of my fave Oscars performances ever! Great song!

[@coltonwayne3226]

Wise up should have also been nominated for best song. Both fantastic.

This performance was at the 72nd Oscars on March 26, 2000, not in 1999.

Aimee Mann killed it

[@user-lr8qr1or8d]

SHE ALWAYS DOES!!! M.O'B

[@AngelofMusic04]

Still can't believe this masterpiece lost to "Tarzan".

[@bklynMF]

And "Unclefucker" wasn't even nominated.

[@carlosmontoya9794]

Well Blame Canada

[@melissadana7829]

Yep. Pretty ridiculous.

[@LucianoAvilaSobreCineYSeries]

To be fair, Tarzan's soundtrack was awesome too.

[@Wendlinger]

You'll be in my Heart is a masterpiece

[@johnrushing5031]

Aimee is the bomb.

[@dbaser687]

This and Elliott Smith's "Miss Misery" are two of the greatest songs nominated yet lost!

[@nickautry7332]

She got ripped off on an Oscar for best song.

I play many songs on bookings- many are Academy Award winning songs. This song would never be added to my repertoire and my repertoire is extremely varied and inclusive.

[@andybrambles782]

@@michael69040 fuck your repertoire

[@markcollins1497]

As varied as your list may be, what’s on that list is still a matter of personal choice, correct? You’re claiming some objective high bar or something?

[@sumeursault]

Anyone know the members of the backing band? I know it’s Paul Bryan on bass and Buddy Judge on guitar. The others I don’t know

[@alphawolf3526]

I believe it's Patrick Warren on keyboards, Michael Lockwood on lead guitar, and John Sands on drums. They were all in her touring band around this era.

@@alphawolf3526 Thanks!

No vampires that night.
