DeVotchKa - The Winner Is - 2006

More film music: The Winner Is by DeVotchKa.

Before watching Little Miss Sunshine (2006), I had never heard of DeVotchKa. The film itself is well worth seeing, even aside from its soundtrack, but if I’m honest, it was DeVotchKa’s music that captivated me. It remains one of the few times I’ve come away from a film realizing that I loved the music even more than the movie itself, especially The Winner Is. It may sound crazy, but there it is.

That's My Gem

3 posts this month

Share music that’s special to you: hidden gems, personal anthems, or overlooked treasures. No shame, just passion.

No song is too mainstream, too obscure, or too personal. If a chart-topper defined a chapter of your life, share it. If a forgotten track just struck a chord with you, share it. If a seemingly ordinary song suddenly revealed its depth, share it. This is a place for the music that moves you, whether it’s a global hit or a hidden gem. No judgment, no rules: just the songs that feel like yours!

Community rules

1. Share with passion
Every post must include a song (link, title + artist, or explanation if unavailable online). Explain why it’s special to you: a memory, a discovery, lyrics, a feeling. Without context, it’s merely a track. It’s the context you give that will make it a gem.

2. No judgment, just discussion
Don’t dismiss others’ tastes. Instead:
- Ask questions ("What do you love about this?").
- Share your own experience ("I first heard this in 2010, and it feels like...").
- Give constructive thoughts ("I get why you love the guitar riff, but the vocals aren’t my thing").

3. Keep it about the music
This is a space for music and its stories. Off-topic discussions (politics, religion, etc.) are fine if they relate to the post, but take unrelated chats elsewhere.

4. No spam or self-promotion
- Don’t post your own music unless it fits the community’s spirit (i.e., shared as a gem with a personal story, not as an ad).
- Avoid reposting the same song/artist without new context.
- No links to paid services or unsolicited promotion.

5. Quality over quantity
This burrow is about depth. A post with just a YouTube link and "Cool song!" adds little. Tell us why it’s a gem.
