If a single quotation can distill an entire subset of pop culture in the 2000s, these 12 words work pretty well: 'You gotta hear this one song. It'll change your life, I swear.' Most millennials can immediately identify Garden State, Zach Braff's indie phenomenon from 2004, as the source.
You gotta hear this one song epitomized a generation transitioning from the sovereignty of MTV to the curatorial power of Myspace. Braff loaded Garden State with the sort of in-the-know music recommendations that had become currency.
The movie hails from a steady wave of hip, successful soundtracks in the 2000s. Garden State, along with other films like Juno and (500) Days of Summer, contributed to this era of impactful movie soundtracks.
