This sounds like a mix between Iron and Wine and Belle and Sebastian and something else. Anything but Zero 7 which I like anyway and I really like this song and I am also really rambling...........8.

Edit: Ahhhhhhh Jose Gonzales, I feel better now though I was feeling just fine anyway listening to this great song ok bye.

OMG — I almost hate to mention this (especially since I am a HUGE Zero 7 fan) — but I suddenly started hearing Christopher Cross "Ride Like The Wind" in the middle of this..........  yikes!!  (I'm sure this observation was probably made already, I just didn't feel like scrolling through 5+ pages of song comments)  {#Wink}

You might be thinking of "Games People Play" by the Alan Parsons Project. I can kind of hear that in the bassline, though it seems only vaguely related. I like this one (and APP too).
 
Thank YOU for posting this.  It has been driving me nuts.  And here I had the vague sensation that I was hearing "Driver's Seat" redux, instead.  But no, it was indeed APP.  Whew.

everything which makes me curious is outstanding: quite strange Zero 7 with Jose, but very hyptnotic

I <3 Jose! 8, maybe 9...it made me turn up the volume, so that's a good sign!

i like it; some wise man once told me, if you want to get to know the parameters of someone's thinking; look at 3 things; their shoe rack, what kind of spices they use and the type of music they listen to. i'm not sure why it came up when i heard this tune, but i can imagine the comments this gets from the old-skoolers whose reference point for a "10" is relegated to the likes of something from Let It Be or Ziggy Stardust...

Absolutely: terrific. I reserve my 10s for "Godlike" though, so this gets an 8 from me.

(BTW, how I appreciate Bill's fearless use of "Godlike", in this queer world of "god-fearers".)

Kittee - Kittee - Kittee!  Zero 7 is a genre of its own.  Turn out the lights, close your eyes, and be carried away.  There is new life at every listen.   Kittee wrote:

Hey Bill, clever segue from Thievery Corporation to this! Here are two bands I wasn't familiar with until the Garden State soundtrack, heard 'em, loved 'em - and now I get to hear another song from each band back-to-back! Love the groove in this one - and as always, love the Middle Eastern vibe of the Thievery Corp track... {#Music}

The end of this song reminds me of the instrumental piece when they are driving the van in Cheech & Chong's Up in Smoke.

Pretty cool song.

Yeah, absolutely there is! That's what building a set is all about. Try making playlists within iTunes that mix the songs in a way that they make sense to you. I have a list of driving songs, songs that remind me of someone I miss, etc. Drumming songs. Sleeping songs.

Hmm. I had to give it a low rating, esp the first part of the track. I like Z-7's "Waiting Line" quite a bit so it was a disappointment to find out this is Z-7 also.

Wow. I know I heard this album (and this song) before I heard José González's solo effort, but I guess I never noticed they were related to each other. To be honest with you, I prefer the stripped-down version.

It's a pretty good song, though. I gave it a 7.


fish and non fish alike seem to agree on the seven . . .

thinking of bumping it to an 8, however, as it grows on me.
