one more....

thanks to emily and her encyclopedic knowledge of macbook commercials, we now know where we were first introduced to the song "new soul" (see previous post).

we've got another one. i love the song, but again feel like i know it from a television commercial or some viral internet video. our best efforts on google fail to yield answers! we know you readers are smarter than some lame search engine, right?

I do remember this song from the last project runway season, it was played on the catwalk at NYC fashion week

that may be true, but that isn't where i'm remembering it from.

Do you remember it from an episode of Veronica Mars, season 3? Also, according to the internet, the song was used in a trailer for "27 Dresses", an ad for Yahoo and a video against Prop 8, which I don't personally remember.

that's it! the prop 8 ad. i knew it was some kind of internet video with a bunch of pictures running over the song, but i couldn't place it for the life of me. it's a really moving video. i highly recommend it:

The interwebs also say:

'"Fidelity" has also been used in an episode of Grey's Anatomy titled "Six Days, Part 2", Veronica Mars titled "Wichita Linebacker", Brothers & Sisters titled "Sexual Politics" and in the Brazilian telenovela A Favorita.'
