One hit wonder time, everybody!  A Native American band that had a giant hit and now it's featured in the opening credits of the number one movie in the country in a clever and memorably funny way?  It's true, kids! IT'S TRUE!

 This song by the band Redbone spent 18 weeks in the Top 40 and landed as the 4th most popular song on the Hot 100 for 1974. That's no small thing for this one hit wonder. It has gone one to have long life in commercials and movies, most recently in the movie Guardians Of The Galaxy's opening scene of our nominal hero Quill, wearing a funky red-eyed space mask white guy dancing around the ruins of an destroyed planet, like Indiana Jones crossed with that one guy at the party who is dancing way too early by himself. And right this very moment, all over the world, people are listening to this song.
