Title: RIP Adam Schlesinger, songwriting genius, 52
Post by: urth on April 01, 2020, 11:29:10 PM

Part of the songwriting duo behind Fountains of Wayne and and the man who wrote the irresistibly catchy title song for "That Thing You Do" (among many other credits) passed away today in a hospital in New York, suffering from COVID-19.

I am bereft.

He was an One-der, for sure.


Tom Hanks actually said that in a tweet.
