Fountains of Wayne - Stacy's Mom

I just liked the tune, I swear I didn't know the video would be that, um, provocative.
Hmm, the "mom" is pretty young for a "MILF" type, no? They could at least have used somebody over 30, methinks.    :-)



... Hmm, a Canadian reader says it's blocked for him on copyright grounds. I can see it in the UK, I wonder if I got it from the UK Youboobs site? Anyhoo, by searching on the title, he found a version which worked.

  1. Maybe Stacy is a toddler!

    This is by far their best song...I find their subsequent efforts to be rather hacky. Lyrically, on the level of a sixth-grader. They got kinda lucky with this particular song, methinks.

    Bit of trivia: Fountains of Wayne was a real business in Wayne, NJ where they sold cast concrete fountains, some rather garish. It was famously featured in an episode of The Sopranos. Apparently it has gone out of business.

  2. It's funny how many bands manage to make one really good song, and the rest is filling.

  3. I love the reference to "Fast Times at Ridgemont High".

  4. Now you mention it. Even though it only went half the way. (Even so I'm amazed this one plays on TV (if it does).)

    Maybe Phoebe Cates could have played the mom.

  5. Staceys 'mom' is played by Rachel Hunter ... who won't be seeing her 40th birthday again:-)

  6. Kid needs to stick with that girl....

    Whatever will we do when no-one looks their age...? And you live to be 200?

    My daughter, now 23, was discussing what cosmetic surgery she and her friends were planning for when they got old enough to not require approval--that was 14 years ago.

    Song's o.k. video is cute & the people are good looking--it's a Hollywood dream.

  7. Maybe a little too slick. If that's a late-thirties model (vid is from 2003), they hid that well. Too thick softfilters.
    And it looked like they lived in a Malibu Barbie Dream House, not an English home.
    OK, it's a dream vision, but a touch of reality is far from hurtful, possibly au contraire.

  8. By the way, C, yeah. at that age, if that chick had shown interest, her mom and the rest of the world would'a been dead to me.

  10. She definitely looks late 30s too old really to be that chick's mother. Lot of vaseline on that camera lens.

  11. Why would those kids be interested in that old hag? They'd all be busy gangbanging that delicious daughter.
