    Wow, late to the game on this one. So shocked and saddened by Adam passing. I think Ivy was/is a great band. Dominique has a beautiful voice and this video shows a special relationship between the 3 of them. I hope they continue making great music and Adam continues to give them inspiration for taking their music to the next level.

    I absolutely love this band ! So nice to finally see a mini doc about their careers and the untimely death of genius music man Adam Schlesinger. "Long Distance" will always be my favorite by the band. A dreamy, gorgeous pop experience! Sending love to Dominique and Andy. 🙏🩷🩷🩷

    Thank you for sharing an inside look at your life with Adam. My heart breaks that he's gone, but I'm pleased to know he lived with unbridled ambition for what he loved. This is what your commentary conveyed to me.

    I had covid in November of 2019 and spent 6 weeks in the hospital with a week on the ventilator, so I have some idea of what Adam went through, I will always love the music of IVY and can not wait for the other albums to be released on vinyl, I am already enjoying Guestroom, and just got a copy of Apartment life. R.I.P Adam.

    I knew of Dominique and Andy. I started following Ivy about 17 yrs ago. I never even realized who the third member of Ivy was. My daughter was a Big fan of Fountains of Wayne. Even as she cried to me about hearing the news, I still did not connect the dots. I had followed Andy's career and some of Dominiques and still do. I am so happy I saw this. I just wish I had realized what he was to the band and the world before... Thank you

    This was one loss I wasn't prepared for. Adam was involved in so much music I ended up loving and yet it wasn't publicised. A truly gifted musician taken far too soon.

    I find it amazing to see all these videos. It was so funny to see you arguing about Undertow, which turned out to be one of my favorite songs!
    I discovered Ivy in 2021, and I've listened so much to it since. I had no idea Adam had passed away. That was a beautiful homage.

    @thebandivy Dominique and Andy, I was heartbroken to hear of Adam’s passing when the news first broke at the start of the pandemic in the US. I’ve thought about writing to you to say how sorry I am that you lost your friend, but I always decided against it. The apparent silence from you/Ivy felt like a signal that you both were grieving too much to want to hear from fans, so I left it alone. Now that you’ve shared this beautiful piece, I feel a small bit of permission to share my deep love for Ivy and grieve with you in my own small way. I remember the first time I heard Ivy. Live105, San Francisco’s then-independent radio station for modern rock and alternative, played Get Enough on a sunny summer afternoon, and after one listen I was hooked. I dove into Realistic that summer and absorbed the album completely. From then on, every Ivy release was an instant buy, and I vacillated between gratitude that I had found you and had you all to myself and hope that Ivy would have wider recognition. From high school, through college, and through my 20s, Ivy records were there to mark the time. I deeply, deeply regret that I wasn’t ever able to see you perform live, but I’m so incredibly grateful for the music you shared. I had always felt like Ivy was somewhat opaque in your creative process and personalities. It was harder to find articles and interviews back in the earlier days of the internet, and even harder before the internet, and I’m so glad I was able to see and hear, directly from you both, what it was like to work with Adam and to be his friend. His loss was the first I personally felt as a result of this pandemic, and it still sits with me. I’m so sorry for you both, and I can’t thank you enough for sharing this and for your music and the wonderful memories and emotions it’s brought me over the past decades. With love and appreciation from San Francisco, Michael.

    Thank you so much for making this video. I only met Adam once, in Brooklyn in 2019 after a Luna show. I recognized him from the photos in the Ivy CDs, even though I couldn't remember his name. He was kind and unassuming, and we had a nice conversation. At that point, only ever having been an Ivy fan, I didn't even know he had been in Fountains of Wayne, or any of his other musical accomplishments. I asked him if he was still in a band, and he smiled, and said, no, but that he was still working as a musician. (In retrospect, after I learned more about everything he'd done, his humility was pretty amazing. He didn't mention a thing.) Then we went over and chatted with Britta Phillips for a while (a mutual friend). I mentioned that I had recently learned that Dean (Britta's husband) had played the solo on Never Do That Again, which Britta didn't know, so it was nice to have been a part of that small moment with them. Anyway, I've learned so much about Adam and his music since he left us, and I'm so grateful to have met him. I can see from this video that he meant the world to you. Thanks again. Chris

    Amazing footage. I've only ever seen videos of Adam in interviews... and seeing him like this, at home, in the studio, laughing with friends, fighting with friends... just amazing. Thanks for sharing. Heartfelt condolences to you and all of Adam's family and friends. 2 things though...
    1. I could have sworn there were more videos on this channel.
    2. Lucy doesn't... WHAT?!??!?

    I absolutely loved Adam Schlesinger's songs and music, in all its various forms -- I was devastated when he passed, but I can't even imagine what that must have been like for those close to him. Thank you for sharing this with us. This made me miss him all over again but I'm glad I watched it. :)

    Upon approaching Apartment Life's 25th Anniversary, I would like to provide my condolences in the passing of Adam.
    The serene and lingering tones of that album made me flabbergast how the record label drop the ball when it was first released.
    From it's strong opening track The Best Thing to the melancholic and haunting closer of Back in Our Town, the ending product has became one of my personal favorites of the 1990s and is now timeless to many music critics around the world.
    When Adam passed, it tore me to shreds just as much when Lyle Mays passed away.
    But I know this which made me smile a week after, Ivy is still here.
    Thank you Dominque and Andy for sharing this video and making such an impact to the music industry.
    *Merci.* 💘💕

    So sad to lose Adam. Also sad that there will be no more Ivy. Paco’s one CD was very good and Andy’s Brookville recordings were excellent. Andy is a great songwriter and Dominique’s voice was a perfect fit.

    What a great tribute to Adam; his music is immortal but these oral histories are irreplaceable. I love that Dominique didn't take any shit from him. ;) On a personal note, met you guys at the Iron Horse in Northampton, MA years ago. One of the best concerts I've ever been to and you guys were great to chat with before the show. The gig turned out to be an impromptu Fountains of Wayne concert too which was a pleasant surprise and of course takes on even greater signficance now. May Adam's memory be a blessing.
