New Lennon Ad

[jamie]

Very strange ad that uses a generated robotic voice to sound like Lennon for a Laptop Charity pitch.

Dosent come across too well does it,Its not quite right in so many ways.

It gave me the creeps

It sounded more like one of the Beatle tribute band members doing an impersonation. And I thought it was creepy, inappropriate, etc. What next? President John F. Kennedy or some other long passed person with synthesized recreated voice messages? The whole concept is weird. I hope this doesn't become a trend. And I assume that Yoko approved this?

Weird... I guess I just don't understand the whole concept. John Lennon was a great guy in his time, what does "bringing him back" to pitch something really do? Especially with some synthetic voice, why not just hire a good impressionist. Then again, why bother at all. It's just too weird...

[beefandbones]

All jokes aside, I bet John never in his life said the word "laptop".

Doesn't seem to fit with me! Rather sad methinks.

[winston]

The organisation that produced that ad should be ashamed of themselves.

+1 ... sounds like me trying to mimic John!

[shamustwin]

Man, that's sick.

[brammy]

Very sick yes

.... but I bet Yoko got some $$$ out of the deal and would therefore the Queen "B" would think it's just great.
