#FountainsofWayne #WelcomeInterstateManagers #stacysmom #y2kpop #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky Fountains of Wayne release Welcome Interstate Managers on June 10, 2003 featuring the "summer song" of 2003. Say what you will -- the album stands at the top of power pop songwriting in the early 2000's, perfectly incredibly sharp, witty takes on everyday suburband life with incredible, melody-driven alt rock.

Hey, one more thing. After Adam died, the rest of the band - and Sharon Van Etten - did a live version of Hackensack for Jersey 4 Jersey. While the download is no longer available, the video of it is:

And finally, here’s a Tiny Desk Concert in support of this album:

That was from the song "The Summer Place”, and here's the video:

OK, not done with Fountains of Wayne.
A lot of bands write great melodies, and there are many skilled musicians who can play beautifully. But when you combine that with observational specificity and carefully crafted lyrics that push well past the “girl/guy makes me sad” line:
She ran away back in ‘78
Just down the beach to the neighbors’
They brought her back after sunset
Her dad said "Don't do me any favors”So much there, in so few words.

Fountains of Wayne - Sky Full of Holes
Speaking of people who had talent absolutely pouring out of them… Fountains of Wayne put out only five albums, but every one is a power pop gem.
This, their last (RIP Adam Schlesinger) is no exception. It's chuck full of catchy, clever, well performed pop songs.
For whatever reason, that's out of style, and FoW never got the success they deserved...but don't let that stop your own enjoyment of their work.

I was today years old when I finally checked out the 2010 one-off supergroup #TintedWindows (featuring members of #SmashingPumpkins, #FountainsOfWayne, #CheapTrick, and.......#Hanson?) ...and it definitely has the glammy "bazooka rock" of Cheap Trick as its spine. It's delightfully catchy, energetic and listenable: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmbRRBVjTds

Today I'm going through some old Fountains of Wayne songs. I was a fan since I got Utopia Parkway in 1999 when I was 19, which was a few years before Stacy's Mom (which is of course a great song I still dig).
This is a live version of one of the songs I've never been able to forget from Utopia Parkway. This one ALWAYS pops in my head. Check the lyrics- "Now I look a little more like that guy from Korn" 😂 Red Dragon Tattoo is HILARIOUS.
Unfortunately, we lost Adam Schlesinger (a founding member of FoW) in 2020 from COVID -- he's playing bass and singing in this video. RIP.
