Stacy’s Dad has already been done, though a bit differently.
As much as I am loathe to admit it, Fountains of Wayne was a really amazing band.
Wait, what!?!
Damn, I didn’t know that. COVID, no less and early on in the pandemic. Damn.
I am genuinely a huge fan of everything Adam Schlesinger did. Dude was one of my musical heroes. He had a great ear for pop songwriting and wordplay. I rarely cry over celebrities in general, but his was the first COVID death that really shook me.
Excellent version, with good mirroring of the original and an almost spot-on sound.
That was a really good version!
FWIW, I always liked this song, and I found this animation done to it years ago that I really liked.
Aw man, me neither. He was too young.
The lyrics say that Stacy’s Mom came out. /pedant
Rachel Bloom’s version of Stacy’s Mom is a stand-out, but the whole album is great.
The line that has those words does exist, but not in that context:
Your mom came out with just a towel on (Towel on) /extra-pedant
(edit: Ah, you meant in the linked Stacy’s dad version - nevermind)
Lyrics on the shown one are very similar in some parts, but that might be because the beats and rhymes only allow so many combinations.
