"Vindicated" is a song by Dashboard Confessional released on the 2004 soundtrack for the movie "Spider-Man 2". This track can be considered the theme for the "Spider-Man 2" movie. The song is also featured on the Bonus Track edition of their 2006 album, "Dusk and Summer".The original song that was going to be used on the Spider-Man 2 Soundtrack was called "I Need a Sure Thing", but after Chris Carrabba had gotten a special screening of the movie, he wrote "Vindicated" in just 15 minutes. He has played "I Need a Sure Thing" a few times at concerts during the Dusk and Summer tour, but it hasn't been performed since.
