Corporate Anthems!

Ripped from the bowels of corporate America...some of the worst motivational jingles ever written. These are songs produced by companies for their own employees. They must really hate them!

Corporate image management is back in da house! These companies' products rocked so good they had to tell the world -- with an IT Anthem!

Whatever you do, you must listen to "Ever Onward, IBM!" It's like something out of an Andy Hardy movie.

Actually, they have an entire online songbook.

In IBM's defense, it dates from 1931. The modern companies have no legitimate excuse.

Take this classic SGI line from its Octane song:

The competition is in shock-tane

As for the people who sing stuff like this -- with feeling, even -- prostitutes, the lot of 'em.

I listened to IBM Onward and read the words to some of their other ditties, and I'm speechless!
