Commercial Break

I had an odd sensation while watching a commercial just now... the music in the commercial was the song 'Such Great Heights' by the Postal Service. Since this song leads off the first soundtrack album for 'Grey's Anatomy', I have made a strong mental association between the song and the TV program, and it felt really out of place for me to hear it in a commercial for UPS. I often get the same feeling when I recognize the soundtrack for one film being used in the trailer for another film... it takes me away from whatever it is they are trying to sell and reminds me of the first place I've heard the music.
