My 100 Favorite Songs: #70

Fountains of Wayne - Stacy's Mom

I think of a lot of things when I hear this song - The Cars, Rachel Hunter, the excellent Welcome Interstate Managers album, the power of MTV; but more than anything else, "Stacy's Mom" - a runaway smash late in the summer of 2003 - vividly encapsulates the lazy buzz of August - the summer winding down and dreading going back to school.

I'm sure there will be worse favorites than this to come (because your musical taste has clearly been influenced by a 15 year old girl), but this song is truly awful. Terrible job.
