Someone's Gonna Break Your Heart is the second vinyl single from Fountains Of Wayne’s new album, Sky Full Of Holes. The seven inch includes the non-album B-side "Song Of The Passaic", an ode to the "toilet river" that meanders through northern New Jersey. Written and produced by Chris Collingwood and Adam Schlesinger, Someone's Gonna Break Your Heart showcases the band’s trademark melodic_air and lyrical wit that is demonstrated throughout Sky Full of Holes. "Song Of The Passaic" is based upon the writing, of the same name, by John Alleyne Macnab (circa 1890) and adapted to the bands ends as an accompanyment to an NPR radio documentary about the river.
SPIN Magazine have already listed Sky Full of Holes as one of their "24 Summer Albums That Matter Most" and Rolling Stone described it as a "beautiful bummer of an album, full of FoW’s trademark tunefulness, clever wordplay and pop smarts".
