YES WE CAN: Like music to their ears
My colleague John Watkis is a gifted speaker and speechwriter who delivers a great talk on “Writing a Speech that’s Like Music to their Ears.” This morning, John alerted me to a video made by will.I.am of Black Eyed Peas, setting to music a speech by U.S. Democratic presidential hopeful Senator Barack Obama.
In John’s words: “This is the literal translation of making a speech sound like music to their ears. It’s an amazing video! Take five minutes to watch it.”
I agree. No matter what your political stripe, you have to admire Senator Obama’s powerful ability to inspire people through his words.


Wow - what a powerful video, Donna! Thanks for sharing (via John).
