    I got to hear this song live at Warped Tour. Not by Fountains of Wayne, but rather by Bowling for Soup, which frequently was mistaken for FOW.

    That said, I loved this song. And the video is still amazing. Sad to hear the news. May he rest in peace.

        Ugh. That's terrible. I saw Bowling for Soup do "Stacy's Mom" a few years back as well. Good song, written by a talented guy, who wasn't old (52). I heard he was sick from Coronavirus, but most recover. Very sad.

          I thought about starting a thread just for (already many) folks who have died in A&E that some of us are connected to, and many are fans of, but alas…

            Sad to hear. Country singer Joe Diffie ("Prop Me Up Beside the Jukebox") also passed from COVID-19 complications as well.

              John Prine and Jackson Browne are both hospitalized for it now.

                I have never heard of this band, but I sure do like Stacy's mom.

                RIP Adam!
