Ben Gibbard Pens 'When the Sun Goes Down' for 'Arthur' -- Song Premiere

Russell Brand's short Hollywood career has left fans with several hilarious songs, including 'Inside of You' from 2009's 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' and 'Furry Walls' from last year's weird sequel, 'Get Him to the Greek.' Now as Brand settles into the role of loveable man-child billionaire Arthur Bach, his performance will be accompanied by the musical stylings of Death Cab for Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard.

Gibbard's new track, 'When the Sun Goes Down,' features his voice mixed with playful tom-tom percussion and down-home acoustic guitar, reminiscent of Paul Simon's more Americana-influenced works.
