The songs on the debut album, Fountains of Wayne, take perky, '60s-like hooks and marry them to ambiguous, unnerving, '90s-like lyrics. Some songs offer an untrustworthy narrator; when the singer complains about 'Joe Rey,' a Eurotrash jet-setter, you wonder whether he's expressing disdain or envy and whether the song's noisy guitar energy.

Fountains of Wayne is a Grammy-nominated American power pop band. The group was formed by songwriters Adam Schlesinger and Chris Collingwood. They met as freshmen at Williams College and began playing music together. After college, Collingwood formed the Mercy Buckets in Boston and Schlesinger formed Ivy in New York City, but they connected again in 1996 and formed Fountains of Wayne.

The band name was taken from a garden and lawn ornament store in Wayne, New Jersey by that name. Adam Schlesinger grew up in nearby Montclair. The store can be seen in The Sopranos episode 'Another Toothpick' but it closed in 2009.

Their biggest hit single was 'Stacy's Mom.' The single was powered by a popular music video, directed by Chris Applebaum, about an adolescent boy's attempts to get closer to the mom of his girlfriend Stacy. The mom was played by model Rachel Hunter. The clever video includes allusions to the 1962 film Lolita and 1982's Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
Adam Schlesinger says 'Stacy's Mom' was a tribute to a band they liked, The Cars. The Cars' song 'My Best Friend's Girl' has a similar instrumental intro. Cars frontman Ric Ocasek thought that the intro was a sample from his song 'Just What I Needed' but the band says they performed it in the studio. Ocasek was asked to be in the video for the song but declined. (Wikipedia)Collingwood recorded an album as the singer/guitarist in Look Park.
