Zapfen Sie Tanz ab

I have owned the soundtrack to Zach Braff's independent film, Garden State, for about a year now. I didn't see the movie, although everyone kept telling me it would be my favorite. Well, it has become number one, tied with Pride and Prejudice. Anyway, I highly recommend both the film and the music, for they are both amazing and may surprise you. Watch Garden State. That's what I'm telling you.

Why? Because I have never seen another piece that has the perfect music selections in every scene. The music is not in the background. It becomes a trait of each character and the workings inside that aren't being shown. I cannot profess enough how insanely impressed I am by the combination of the flawless compilation and a great script with an astounding cast. Like Juno said, the soundtrack is the cheese to the film's macaroni. With all seriousness ofcourse.

Here is an example that hopefully will not make you judge the film too quickly. Yeah, it's just that scandalous... =P

This is just a taste on one of those tiny, baby, white, plastic spoons you get covered with the lastest flavor handed to you by the girl behind the counter with a black baseball hat with the shop logo on the front and a short brown pony tail and faint smile. That sample tastes even better than you imagined and has a twist of something savory sweet you can't detect, but cherish. That is what Garden State tastes like.

Care for a free sample? =)



Title: "Tap Dance" in German
In my head: "9 Crimes" by Damien Rice (see previous post for a listen ;)
