Fountains of Wayne has been, is and will always be my favorite band of all time. This makes Adam Schlesinger one of my biggest music heroes for obvious reasons, as well as Brian, Chris and Jody. Meeting these four was always one of my ultimate dreams, having so much respect and admiration for them. But since Adam has passed it would be completely impossible to fully achieve that dream.
However, the important thing is that we still have his crafts at our disposal, and what better way to honor him than singing and playing his music? He still had so much in him, so much to give, his genius would never run out of great ideas and passion. His very unfair death certainly makes us look back at him in a different way, and I feel that we can learn a lot from him. Not from an artist perspective, but as a wonderful human being, and sure as hell he was.
For those of you who may think I took so long in making this then I am sorry, I had a rough week as soon as I heard the terrible news of his passing and initially began to do a version of ''Hackensack'' and ''Troubled Times''. But then I figured the song ''I-95'' from my favorite album ‘’Traffic and Weather’’ is a much better choice to pick both lyrically and musically for the case, considering he fully wrote it, so if I started with that in the beginning, it would have been ready in less than a week after Adam's death.
Anyway. I really hope you enjoyed this and believed I honored him in the best way. Here's some of my favorite Fountains of Wayne songs and videos if you're interested in checking them out.
