    To be fair, he does have a really nice voice. Okay, so the lyrics are beyond cheesy but at least the guy can hold a tune!

    This is tantamount to Hitler singing kletzmer. Could this bank be any more inappropriate? Using u2 to promote a bank is blasphemy.

    because U2 is so against the accumulation of wealth (why did Bono fly his hat first class?)

    I've already shredded my BofA card (last year). This company is the lowest of the low, plagued by incompetence and crookery. Listening to that monkey sing made me want to knock his teeth out.

    This guy has a great voice. If he used his talents for something other than feeding the "corporate machine", he could do the world a lot of good. Wonder if U2 has seen this yet???

    Ummm....all I could manage at first was, just that...ummmm...!! As ZaraLight stated, the guy does have somewhat of a nice voice, but choosing this particular song was a VERY BAD idea! I too, see copyright issues...I'm pretty sure that U2/Bono would not have given permission to use that song for this purpose! Whew~& what a cheesy rendition! Actually, it makes Bank of Am. look extremely pious & insensitive. If nothing else, this stunt will surely lose them at least a few customers.

    Bob & Tom did a commercial parody called "The First World Bank of Bono" where Bono sings "In the name of love, One Bank in the name of love"

    I take it that nobody here has a credit card. Or a pricy car. Or a cell phone. With camera, MP3 player, and fax port. And I guess you're all using the computers at the local public library to submit your anti-capitalist rants. Sure, there are some slimeballs up there around the mahogany conference tables, and where they are found they should be excised and prosecuted. But there are also persons of principle, with a moral compass, who have not just dreamed the American dream, but have worked their butts off to build the companies that not only provide you with your nifty 21st century toys, but high paying jobs for your Dads and Moms and Aunt Sallys and Uncle Charlies, and maybe even you, if you had the sense to stay in school. I apologize for the rant, but I'm sick of the hypocrisy. In a socialist state, all our computers would be the same color. And pack a whopping 1K of RAM. And run on kerosene. When you work for a company, you occasionally go to these pep rallies, and (surprise, surprise) people may sing songs and perform skits about the merits of the company, its products, and the people in charge. (Ooooooh, how eeeeeeevil!) Now if this guy couldn't sing, that would be a different matter. But as far as the use of that particular song goes, I have two questions. 1) What's in YOUR wallet? 2) What's in Bono's wallet?

    This was hilarious! Wow, you people are taking this way too seriously! This was obviously done tongue in cheek. And the audience loved it, they gave the duo a standing ovation at the end! To the guy who cut up his BofA credit card after watching this... holy cow, lighten up, dude!

    yeah.. it is harmless. eerrrr... except now that its on the web, its a copy right violation. they will have to pay u2. if you really hate the corp types then just forward this to ASCAP or BMI they make sure artisits are paid when their work is used.

    It's not a copyright violation. One, Universal owns the exclusive rights to the song, so it has nothing to do with Bono or U2. Two, the song was performed for a private audience. This means that BOA had no intentions of distributing this as a promotional video. Someone just happened to have caught it on tape and put it on the web. Therefore, it's not BOA's fault. Finally, a comedian by the name of David Cross performed this bankerized version of "One" onstage and he isn't being hit with lawsuits or ceist-and-desist orders. FTW.
