I haven’t posted a song of the day in quite some time. Heard this one on a random mix recently and I forgot how much I like Stevie wonder stuff from the 70s.

RIP John Prine – another American treasure taken from us by COVID19
Just heard the sad news about the passing of John Prine this evening from complications from Covid19. Prine was one of those artists that I knew of and appreciated the songs of his that I had heard, but I can’t say I knew more than a fraction of his work (that will change). I remember really liking his 1991 album The Missing Years. Here’s my favorite song from that album. All The Best.
Since one FOW song wasn’t enough, here’s Stacy’s Mom
Another great hook, hilarious lyrics. It got alot of play on MTV because of the video
For Adam Schlesinger, RIP
Just heard the devastating news that Adam Schlesinger, co-founder of Fountains of Wayne, one of my favorite power pop bands, has died of COVID19 complications. While Stacy’s Mom was their biggest hit, this was my favorite song of theirs. Their brilliant combination of huge power pop riffs and witty lyrics will be sorely missed. Sending my thoughts to his family, friends and fans worldwide.
How many more will we lose?
HT to Aphoristical for the heads up.
