Bank of America One video

A video for the Bank Of America's version of 'One' - some of you may recognise this as a direct homage to the beautiful Mark Pellington video for the U2 original, but with a more relevant twist for this ridiculous cover version...

The guy is in management. I have no idea what his possible singing career may entail. Yes, it is so awful. He is that passionate singing about the creation of the nations, and almost the worlds, largest financial rapist.

I'm dying to know what U2 think of Bank Of America covering their song!

I had to sit through this video at a management meeting, those around me taking it seriously. Problem is, I belong to the One organization, believe in it and was horribly offended at the bastardization of this great meaningful song.

you were actually there? wow - did anyone complain?

[jdowe]

Not while sitting through the performance, now. Outside of the office, without the connect card in hand, yes.

so whats the story with the guy who sung? is he an ex-singer? he seems to really believe in what he sang, which makes it so awful to watch considering he's singing about banks.

"we'll make lots of money; forever I can sing...about

trusting in teamwork and doin' the right thing.

we'll live out our core values, while the competition crawls,

cuz they want what we have got...but it's only here...

at bank of america!!!!!"

see, it's easy steve. just keep talking about values and doing the right thing, as you're bending the middle class over your desk, and some of them will begin to believe you're doing them a favor and not even ask for a reach around

We have to give him some credit to stand up and sing at a Corporate Meeting of one of the Largest Banks in the World. Of all the songs he picks my favorite song. Lets take a big step this song could be used of all other Companies that merged. Can any one sing about the Merger of Bell Atlantic and GTE that became ONE- Verizon.? ..Nice job Jim. Not many people have the guts to do this...

This video should be required viewing for those looking to enter the Banking/Credit Card industry. If you can keep your lunch down then you have got the job.

I wonder: In the recession-beset, post-industrial transactional environment where we find ourselves in 2010; does the "message" encapsulated within this pitiful rendition represent the most inappropriate, greedy, vile, misguided, wrong-headed, shameless, inhuman, mendacious intentions since the Nuremberg Rallies?

BANK OF AMERICA IS A SCUM BAG

Bono, Edge, Larry, Adam, if you're out there, please sue these bastards. Then give the money to developing nations or something better than what they'll use it for.
