A few tidbits for ya- 1- that whole scene with her coming out the pool in the red bikini and taking her top off, and the kid getting caught in the bathroom was a reenactment of a famous scene from Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Video stores across the country reported that their tapes were worn down at the moment she opened her top, bc they were paused so many times. 2- There is a store in Wayne, NJ called Fountains of Wayne. It sells fountains and lawn stuff and Christmas stuff in the winter. I grew up near there. The band took their name from the store. 3- The bassist, Adam Schlesinger, died from COVID complications.

The Mom is Rachael Hunter an Swimsuit Illustrated model/Super model & she was married to Rod Stewart for quite awhile.

I love how through the whole thing and even at the end, Stacy is flattered thinking he is crushing on her but really it's her mom. No, Stacy's mom was not like that in real life, it was just a prepubescent boy's fantasy. They borrowed classic scenes from Fast Times at Ridgemont High and the "Hot for Teacher" music video by Van Halen. If you like fun songs like this you should check out Bowling for Soup's "1985" and "The Girl all the Bad Guys Want".

The boy is wearing the same moussed up hair black shades as Ric used to wear. The scene in the Stacy's bedroom with the band in picture frames is also a tribute to The Cars video.

This is a super catchy song. I've been trying to get the other guys in my band to do a cover of it for a few years. On a side, I saw Rachel Hunter (the mom in the video and former Sports Illustrated swimsuit model) many years ago at a local mall and this video does not do her justice. I was about 10 feet away from her and in person, she is unbelievably gorgeous (no wonder Rod Stewart married her!)

"Little boys, they start young" You have NO idea

I’m so pleased no one is offended here, but laughing at the hormone explosions of growing up, looking around age appropriate friends…fixating on “older” women. It’s okay, and Lex knows it.

I think the convo at the end was an eye opener for Lex. Brad was just like, yup. That is how it is.

AN ABSOLUTE MUST HEAR CLASSIC,, DR. HOOK & THE MEDICINE SHOW "SYLVIA'S MOTHER"

Ugh, you guys are so freaking adorable together! So cute and wholesome it makes me wanna just squish your awesome faces! Nothing but love, Brad & Lex, keep lighting up the world 🤗

Loved this song and was so sad to hear the lead singer died of covid last year. Thank you for adding this great song to your repertoire of reviews

I was in middle school when this song came out and everyone used to sing " Naython's mom has got it going on.'

4:55 her: *laughing disbelievingly* "can you imagine?? being a little kid and one of your friends' parents are that lit in your mind? its like, WHAT?" him: *dead serious* "yes."

"Can you picture being a little kid and you know, you're growing up, and you're like..." Brad face while trawling through some personal memories of exactly that situation. "Yes"

Brad Hamilton~”Doesn’t anyone f..king knock anymore.” 😂

I remember when this song came out…hilarious on so many levels 😂😂😂 My guy friends had this on repeat 😂

When I was a kid, we all had certain mothers we crushed on. It was OK to be a boy back then and women / girls liked us ;)

To start off on a similar theme to Stacys Mom, I suggest reacting to the official video version of 'Da Ya Think Im Sexy'. You will see Rod shake his stuff :p

The music video is such a classic!

Show me a boy at that age that doesn't think like that. They always say that women fantasize more than men but I disagree. The reason people think that is because men don't admit it. That's why I thought it was so cute that Lex was surprised to find out that boys think like that. Believe me as a kid I had wilder thoughts than that about some of the local moms!

My favorite meme says Jessie's Girl became Stacy's mom. The timing of the songs works out, and it makes me smile

This dude grinning ear to ear when she pole dances. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 yeah bro Rachel Hunter is 🔥

Many people have commented on the video references to _Fast Times at Ridgemont High_ . The other thing to note is that the entire video is basically a love letter to The Cars, which were a very popular band in the late 70s and 1980s. The way the kids are dressed at the beginning, the heart glasses, the "I Ric" license plate, the close up of the Juno-6, the bright pinkish background and moving outlines on the animated figures, it's all the Cars.

I love you guys! You all are so genuine 🤘🏾 Hard to find

The look on Stacy's face was priceless.

Finally one of my all time favorite bands!! Keep Rock Alive!! 🤘🏽🖤🔥🙌🏼 ℁ All their songs tell stories and are pop rock gems! Radiation Vibe, Mexican Wine, Someone To Love....

HAHA!! This is the most I think I've seen Brad smile for a music video. Her name is Rachel Hunter. She was a model from sports Illustrated. She's always been a hottie.

Yep. One of my friend's moms always wore these short shorts during the summer. Like you could see half her cheeks. lol. We were all like, "DAAAAAAAAMN!" She definitely had it going on. 😉

When y'all talk about people that one or both of you may know, it always cracks me up. Tell us more about dude and his hot mom that you both realized you knew... haha.

I laughed my ass off 😂 very hilarious glazed over look you’ve got at the end 😎

Brad had to wait a few minutes before he could stand up. Lmao

The singer of FOW also wrote the theme song from the Tom Hanks movie “That thing you do” and then he died from covid in 2020

My kids grew up in the 90s so I remember this song.

nice ode to Fast Times at Ridgemont High at the end. nice. I'm pretty guys back then went to the sock for Phoebe Cates in that scene, lol

Brad was having flashbacks to all of the times he did these things.

This music video was pirate's gold back in my teenage days. XD Still get nostalgic over this song

In 10 years he's gonna run into a smokin' hot Stacy and say "what the hell was I thinking?"

If you are going to listen to 1 Fountains of Wayne song, it needs to be Hackensack.

That last part was a recreation of the famous Phoebe Cates scene from Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

It was definitely an homage to the Cars both musically and visually, in many ways. The most obvious of which is the 'i heart ric' license plate. They apparently wanted Ric to cameo and Paulina to play Stacy's mom, but he ignored their communication.

Had such a love-hate relationship with this song growing up. Felt like the "story" was just so stupid and immature, but at the same time the music was so dang catchy it would get stuck in my head for days. Brings to mind another song from that same era by the band Bowling for Soup titled "1985."
