Villa Elaine is Remy Zero's second studio album, released in 1998 and produced for Geffen Records. After recording the album, Radiohead, who the band had toured with previously, added Remy Zero to their tour in support of OK Computer. The band also toured with Scottish band Travis. The album became popular for the song "Prophecy", which was used on the soundtrack for the films She's All That in 1998 and The Last Kiss in 2006. The song "Fair" was used on Zach Braff's Grammy Award-winning soundtrack to the 2004 film Garden State and, more recently, featured in the 2009 film Fanboys. "Hermes Bird" was used in the TV series Felicity and Charmed. "Problem" appeared on the soundtrack for the 1998 Drew Barrymore film Never Been Kissed.
