Classic. A koolaid-drinking corporate douchebag decides to combine his love of music with his love of BofA and decided to cover the U2 song One in honor of BofA's merger with MBNA.

I cannot believe this never made it onto the Sift, or at least I wasn't able to find a copy of it. I did find David Cross' "cover" of this cover: http://www.videosift.com/video/David-Cross-covers-Bank-of-Americas-cover-of-U2s-One

Also, sorry for the crappy video quality! This is apparently a capture from Vimeo, but the other version I found was out of sync... so... it was a toss up: quality or sync.

I upvoted this solely because of its terrible nature. I absolutely LOVE the song "One", and even though this guy is talented he still ruined it by turning it into corporate propaganda. This video was *viral at one time, so I'm also surprised it's never been sifted.

oh come on. The guy is passionate about his work (lucky him). And he has some talent. It's no worse than U2 performing at MacWorld. Maybe even better because he did just because he wanted too (presumably).

Jesus....fucking....christ...

Thats just awful...and you know whats worse...there is talent there but its ruined by a bland self indulgent corporate 'message'

I upvote because its terrible (content) and made me cringe (...we will make lots of money...)

One! Soulless Bank! One! Automated Phone helpline! Only One! day a week opening hours!

etc etc...*snap.

Gah, so enraging that my first instinct was "downvote!". I had to force it back like after you throw up in your mouth a little.
