Stacy's MomStacy's Mom was a hit 2003 song by Fountains of Wayne. It is about a boy's adolescent fantasies about a friend's mother. It details his attempts to spend time with the friend, probably causing her to think he is interested in her, when in fact he only wants to get closer to her mother, in an ironic reversal of the Lolita story (and embrace of the MILF concept). The song was featured on the group's Welcome Interstate Managers album released on June 10, 2003. This song became a hit partly due to the video, which features several comedic scenes illustrating the boy's attempts to get closer to the object of his affections (played by Rachel Hunter), as well as a number of his relatively innocent fantasies. It also parodies a famous scene from the 1982 movie Fast Times at Ridgemont High. In the video, Stacy is played by Gianna Distenca and the boy is played by Shane Haboucha. The song's bears a strong similarity to two songs by New Wave group The Cars: combining an intro similar to that of "Just What I Needed", and the lyrics resembling those of "My Best Friend's Girl", which also deals with lusting after a woman closely aligned with the narrator's friend. "Stacy's Mom" appeared on the U.S. Top 40 chart and was one of the first #1 top songs on the iTunes Music Store. In the Grammy Awards of 2004, the song was nominated for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal. In 2005, the song was used as the background music for a Dr Pepper commercial.
