* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: The narrator of "Stacy's Mom" is convinced that the titular character returns his affections because she once came out and talked to him wearing nothing but a ModestyTowel when he was mowing her lawn.

* EpicRiff: Of course, "Stacy's Mom" has an instantly recognizable staccato riff, but the sunny "Radiation Vibe" belongs up there too - that song's riff starts off their self-titled debut on a very high note.



* SignatureSong: "StacysMom", of course. "Hackensack" is another candidate, highlighting the band's New Jersey roots from Adam Schlesinger's side. It's been covered by other artists including Music/KatyPerry and was performed as a tribute to Adam after he passed away from COVID-19.
