He's actually the bassist - the one dressed in all black on the left. Still an awful loss, especially since he wrote a ton of other songs for movies and TV shows like the title song from That Thing You Do and the music from Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.
my daughters middle name is summer because i was too obsessed with Fountains of Wayne for my own good and i regret nothing. p.s. rip my dear, adam. in another lifetime, all your fans will jam with you again ❤️
@@erikbender1 No, it's Bolinas, California. It's a beach town that requires you to drive up super high hills to get there which are quite scarey I might add. The whole crew from LA talked about how scarey the drive was. The house was very 1970's looking though so they chose that location for that reason and the quiet beach area.
All these comments are a soothing balm for other fans at this time. The band peaked with Sky Full of Holes and this video perfectly represents their lyrical story-telling, pitch-perfect vocals, and ironic wit.
Shit is Fountains of Wayne good. I first heard these guys in their song Red Dragon Tattoo when my dad downloaded it way back when I was really young. My dad has the best music taste, and has for ever.
She's been afraid of the Cuisinart since 1977 Now when she opens up the house Well, she won't set foot in the kitchen Her brother's dating an architect They're coming up for the weekend He never gave her the proper respect But she still meets the ferry to greet them Oh, at the summer place We've got the space if you've got the time And the summer place is so far away It's another state of mind Mind, mind, mind She ran away back in '78 Just down the beach to the neighbors They brought her back after sunset But dad sad "Don't do me any favors" Her mom would sit on the patio She said she needed the sea air She'd drink a fifth of Seagrams And then she'd sink down into her deck chair Oh, at the summer place We've got the space if you've got the time And the summer place is so far away It's another state of mind Mind, mind, mind At 15 shoplifting Was the only game she liked to play At 40 she's still bored She thinks about it then decides to pay And still she can't help feeling Those good old days don't seem so far away (seem so far away) Was it just yesterday She took a handful of mushrooms That she got from a surfer She spent a night in a hospital room So the doctors could observe her Oh, at the summer place We've got the space, you should drop on by At the summer place the injuries fade But the memories last a lifetime Lifetime, lifetime, lifetime
Zachary Meyer r u really friends w the band members? everyone comments how they *should* have been more “famous”. i have a theory that it could be their name. i always use to associate “Fountains of Wayne” with “Wayne’s World” (...not to be taken as seriously). sometimes a success or failure can hinge on “marketing” or “branding”. please tell them to come back under a new name!
Adam Schlesinger (1967-2020) Adam Schlesinger, chanteur, guitariste et compositeur du groupe Fountains of Wayne est décédé le 1er avril de la COVID-19. Il avait remporté un Grammy Award et trois Emmys en carrière. RIP !
Honestly I hope that these guys feel the same way I do about music that I write and play, because I dont care how popular it is, I care about the quality of the music and how beautiful it is, Hopefully they feel the same
@ Koro Sciascia: i TOTALLY think of the song "sister golden hair" by america when i hear the opening of this song...the guitar riffs are sooooo similar. love them both !!
RIP, Adam Schlesinger, bassist co-songwriter, 52, of Fountains of Wayne, from the coronavirus, died today. This song was better than Stacy's Mom.
He's actually the bassist - the one dressed in all black on the left. Still an awful loss, especially since he wrote a ton of other songs for movies and TV shows like the title song from That Thing You Do and the music from Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.
@@ItsMrTruth Thank you. Clarified it. Had fixed it on my Facebook post, but missed it here.
He was also the keyboardist, I believe
😢😢😢😢😢😢
Thank the C C P for his passing.
Love this band. Wish they got the recognition they deserve.
+Steve Madland So do I!
Word. They've been part of my soundtrack for nearly two decades. The song craft is top notch.
Das ist toll musik!!!! Ich libe diesse lieder!!!!👍👍💛💚💚
they have but sadly its only because of stacys mom
I think its an amazing band.....and its true....they dont get the credit they deserve...welcome interstate managers its an amazing album....
RIP Adam. We love you. Thanks for the music.
They were the best band for the 15 years spanning the millennium. We lost a good friend in Adam today,a ll of us who love classic rock and pop.
THE most underrated band of the modern era. ADAM LIVES!!!
my daughters middle name is summer because i was too obsessed with Fountains of Wayne for my own good and i regret nothing. p.s. rip my dear, adam. in another lifetime, all your fans will jam with you again ❤️
This band makes Jimmy Buffet appear casually informed about the summer season.
RIP Adam. I’ll never forget your passion in making this video of your childhood memories ❤️
"She took a hand full of mushrooms that she got from a surfer......"
Great song
Great CD
Great band
Nothing but massive respect for Fountains Of Wayne.
One of the best songs of the 21st century, if not ever!
It was great acting in this music video and we had such a beautiful location! Thank you Fountains of Wayne!
@@rsdtylerdurden878 It was filmed in Bolinas, California.
@@JudyCerda honestly ?, it looks so east coast !.

great music video straight up son, love FoW
@@THEH4RLEMSH8KERS Thank you! I appreciate it.
Another superb song from America's best songwriters....

I've been a fan since the beginning. My first band used to cover Radiation Vibe. RIP Adam
anybody with normal hearing should listen to this kind of music, waaay better than popular music this day.
RIP Adam Schlesinger (October 31, 1967 - April 1, 2020), aged 52
You will be remembered as a legend.
Saw them open for Smashing Pumpkins in 1997. Phenomenal.
I still love this band FOW. 💯❤💪
Phew! Glad I'm not the only one checking this buried treasure after all this time :')
Welcome Interstate Managers is possibly my favorite album, every song is quality!! Trying to find some more FoW songs.
This band needs to reunite and show the world how music is supposed to be again.
This is actually a really good song
+dakota valley Yeah, everybody knows that.
D E P R E S S E D
Don't project your preferences and pleasures on me, dude...
They have a lot of really good songs.
Yas!!! 👌👍
@@Buff99ca 👍👍👍
There is no band like FoW, the best song writing IMO. Adam Schlesinger was a true artist, rest in peace.
Shit is Fountains of Wayne good. I first heard these guys in their song Red Dragon Tattoo when my dad downloaded it way back when I was really young. My dad has the best music taste, and has for ever.
Wish they could all still perform in concert. They made such great music for us.
Such sad news. On a total Fountains binge right now... :/ RIP Mr Schlesinger. Thank. you for the fucking wonderful art. xxxxx
She's been afraid of the Cuisinart since 1977
Now when she opens up the house
Well, she won't set foot in the kitchen
Her brother's dating an architect
They're coming up for the weekend
He never gave her the proper respect
But she still meets the ferry to greet them
Oh, at the summer place
We've got the space if you've got the time
And the summer place is so far away
It's another state of mind
Mind, mind, mind
She ran away back in '78
Just down the beach to the neighbors
They brought her back after sunset
But dad sad "Don't do me any favors"
Her mom would sit on the patio
She said she needed the sea air
She'd drink a fifth of Seagrams
And then she'd sink down into her deck chair
Oh, at the summer place
We've got the space if you've got the time
And the summer place is so far away
It's another state of mind
Mind, mind, mind
At 15 shoplifting
Was the only game she liked to play
At 40 she's still bored
She thinks about it then decides to pay
And still she can't help feeling
Those good old days don't seem so far away (seem so far away)
Was it just yesterday
She took a handful of mushrooms
That she got from a surfer
She spent a night in a hospital room
So the doctors could observe her
Oh, at the summer place
We've got the space, you should drop on by
At the summer place the injuries fade
But the memories last a lifetime
Lifetime, lifetime, lifetime

Nostalgia. RIP Adam ❤️
I drove all the way to Manchester and back in the driving rain to see these guys... it was awesome...
R.I.P. Adam Schlesinger😭😭😭
Who are the kids who are rocking out? They're awesome!
Best band around. Saw them on Austin City Limits back in the day - one of the few times they've played in Texas. Great show...come back, guys!
I've discovered this band since a few weeks..! Like em so much!!
I can't believe I'm friends with these guys, they are the best and sucks they broke up
Zachary Meyer I wouldn't write them off just yet. As a brilliant, unique guitarist said: tomorrow never knows.

@@agua9999 You think that's a bad name? Check out the names of Chris and Adam's other bands in college.
@@patriciarodriguez6028 Unfortunately, fate had other plans for the band. RIP, Adam.

they have marked many a moment in my life with their songs. "she's got a problem" and "survival car"... think back.
When I saw this, I was overcome with nostalgia and emotion. Utopia Parkway was the soundtrack of my childhood.
Legends man.
omg this song is great wthhhhh
my dads FAVE song
+Flossie Martin, Yor dad knows!! =)
I'm tripped
........................very high level pop songs.................next level.................
The Kinks - A Well respected Man
Honestly I hope that these guys feel the same way I do about music that I write and play, because I dont care how popular it is, I care about the quality of the music and how beautiful it is, Hopefully they feel the same
This video only seals the deal - FOW were something unique.
Saw them on this tour---amazing
Love FOW! So many awesome songs. All different lyrics and melodies.
This is the most underrated band around today. They should be topping the charts.
Speaks to my childhood. Thank you for the music.
Another great track from the new album. The music is growing on me every day...because of songs like this one.
My favorite song
What a great Band. RIP Adam Schlesinger
I love this song.
awwwwwwwww reminds me of my summer
yeah man that's the reason i'm watching the video. love this son
Never thought of it till I heard this song, but they remind me of Crowded House
Tracy Connor Yes. It could have been on WOODFACE. When Neil & Tim Finn wrote together, they were both as simultaneously funny and heartbreaking.
I love you... Jayson May❤️🌊🙏💯😘
i have the entire welcome interstate managers album, and i have someone to love. now i'm listening to their other songs
Great talent taken too soon. Thanks for the joy you gave.
RIP Adam 😢
Such an evocative, haunting video that is absolutely perfect for the mood and lyrics of the tune.
I wished i lived in the old days, like in that video, instead of today. I miss the old time you know, i only lived them as a kid
How I Feel About Adam's Death: THE INJURIES FADE BUT THE MEMORIES LAST A LIFETIME.
Has a kinks-feel to it :) I love it!
whaaaaat?! these legends are still about?! winner!
best song of the summer
its like a dream
Is this Stacey's mom back in the 70s before she dyed her hair?
Demais o som da guitarra!!!
Rip Adam god needed his Angel 👼 see you in heaven brother
THAT GIRL IS BEAUTIFUL
Vocês com certeza mereciam mais reconhecimento ❤️
Wow, they're so old now! Stacy's Mom was a forever hit in my book, they still haven't lost their cool though! Love it!
Sad, depressing, realistic, and really cool.
Well done.
this is awesome :)
wtf. how does this not have at least 1 million views yet?
This is beautiful
A great band, sí señor!
absolutely excelent. Brazil here. :)
maybe it's just me, but it freaks me out a little when Adam & Jody stand opposite from their usual positions
Patricia Rodriguez what if it's not they didn't switch places they just switched faces?¿?
Matthew Smith 2 completely different body types :)
I was thinking the same thing. I’m like, where’s Adam?!?
These guys must have loved Squeeze!
They did!
somehow reminds me of I want the world to stop by belle and sebastian.
lovely song (:
I love FoW too!!!
Best song!
I've never felt so much for a character in a song. Poor woman:(:).....
Second that: my favorite American band.
RIP Adam Schlesinger 😥
@ Koro Sciascia: i TOTALLY think of the song "sister golden hair" by america when i hear the opening of this song...the guitar riffs are sooooo similar. love them both !!
I love the throwback surfer rock sound and that chick's a babe!
These guys are awesome, really wish people would listen to songs other than Stacy's Mom.
The start of it reminds me of R.E.M. the that's me in the corner song!
I saw (more like heard, as we went in a bit late) them opening for smashing pumpkins long time ago at war memorial, Rochester NY
Sky Full of Holes is a great album! As is most of FOW's discography.
AND they are even better :D
I went through that stage a while ago.
One of my favorite bands of all time, GO BUY SKY FULL OF HOLES!
This girl is beautiful
gracias por tanto, perdón por tan poco
Sucks that nobody listens to this kind of music anymore :(
Fucking bullshit like Nicki Minaj and that rap shit
or both
hi guys
Karla Munoz ikr
hey I'm listening it, okay?
well played:D
The guitar in the very beginning gives me a Carlos Santana vibe
I nostalgia'd
Awesome!
