YES, WE CAN

Today somebody sent me an interesting video: it is the will.i.am song "Yes we can"...I know it has probably been around for a while but I don't have a TV and so I am feeling like "sitting behind the woods" and missing out on some "crucial exposure" to a major part of the media output.

I was fascinated how the speech was turned into a song. It just shows how much how important it is to draw the audience into it. Rhythm is very important to every oral performance and the repetition of certain words by the singers makes the statements even more powerful. I think it is an interesting way of "processing" and "recreating" a speech like that.
