Save Me is a song written and performed by Aimee Mann for use in the film ''Magnolia''. It appears on the ''Magnolia'' soundtrack, which was released on December 7, 1999. The song also appears on the European edition of the album ''Bachelor No. 2 or, the Last Remains of the Dodo'' (2000), as well as the 2007 compilation album ''Acoustic 07''. In 1999 "Save Me" was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Song, which it lost to "You'll Be in My Heart" from the Disney movie ''Tarzan''. By way of introduction to a live performance, Mann has referred to "Save Me" as "the song that lost an Oscar to Phil Collins and his cartoon monkey love song." Furthermore, Mann has occasionally dedicated her song to Collins in several different venues, albeit in jest. It is Mann's best-known song as a solo artist, having also been nominated for a 2001 Grammy award as Best Pop Female Vocal (she lost to Macy Gray's "I Try").〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.last.fm/music/Aimee+Mann/+charts?rangetype=6month&subtype=tracks )〕 The music video, shot during the filming of ''Magnolia'', was directed by the film's director, Paul Thomas Anderson, and uses many of the film's actors, including Julianne Moore, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Tom Cruise, William H. Macy, and John C. Reilly. The video inserts Mann into various scenes from the film as she performs the song. Unlike many such music videos, the "Save Me" video used no digital manipulation; the scenes were shot at the end of filming days with Mann and actors who were asked to stay in place. Besides ''Magnolia'', the song has also been featured in episodes of the TV series ''Cold Case'', ''Portlandia'', ''Grace and Frankie'', and ''HaShminiya'', and the film ''The Jane Austen Book Club'', ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Save Me (Aimee Mann song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
