Thievery Corporation - Lebanese Blonde

“Psychedelic” and “spaced out” are the two terms that come to mind on hearing this song – it featured on the soundtrack for Zach Braff’s 2004 movie ‘Garden State’, along with some other supremely cool tracks that have already been mentioned here (Iron and Wine – Such Great Heights, The Shins – Caring Is Creepy).

The intro has an Eastern feel to it and the vocal (provided by jazz singer and guest vocalist, Pamela Bricker) is so smooth and airy…I can just imagine a tie-dye-wearing hippie with massive sunglasses making weaving hand gestures and wing movements to it – ‘That 70s Show’ style.

There’s also a French version, and loads more up on their MySpace.
