I've become ardent watcher of Chris Hardwick's show on Comedy Central. The show predominantly features professional comics. It was big surprise to see Aimee Mann participating as one of the three panel guests.

I'm a long term, die hard , huge fan of Aimee. She has a very low key persona, but she's very cool, appealing, quirky and clever. She held her own on the panel, and when she was the first to be cut from the panel, she responded "very very unsurprising to me."

She ranks at the top of my favorite female singer/songwriters. She has an aura about her without even trying. Her level of songwriting ranks up there with Elvis Costello.
