Such Great Heights by The Postal Service

The Postal Service is the side project of Death Cab For Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard. To me The Postal Service is a million times more interesting than Death Cab For Cutie who I find to be a rather boring indie rock band by numbers sort of group. Not that I'm saying they are awful, just very mediocre and yawn inducing.
The Postal Service is Gibbard and electronic producer Jimmy Tamborello. This combination creates a sort of electro pop music that is both very catchy melodically and also very interesting sonically as far as the production goes.
Such Great Heights is the song from their first album (Give Up) that really hit home for a lot of people.
Such Great Heights is currently the #5 most listened to song on Last.FM even though it was released four years ago. It seems to be one of the songs of the decade so far.
A cover of the song by Iron & Wine was featured on an M&M commercial and on the movie Garden State.
