! Tell me if I'm wrong: Xfinity is using a Bach SANCTUS in one of its commercials. |
|
"Holy, holy, holy, God of power . . . " is the translation of what the chorus is singing. There's a tiger and a football player crashes through a big-screen tv.
Has anyone else seen this??

1. "Xfinity" is such a bogus sounding name |
|
They had to come up with something to sort of obscure the fact that it was Comcast.
And everybody who is a Comcast customer, hates Comcast.
Worst customer service of any American company, in poll after poll.

2. I haven't seen it, but will look for it. I'm pretty much a Bach fan, though. |

If you're talking J.S. I like Beethoven, too, and his Ode to Joy always gets me. Maybe it's the music and not the words...The tiger and the football player part of the Xfinity ad is interesting!
Thanks for the post!
Peace and blessings.

3. I'm a little shocked by the obviously sacrilegeous association: tv = God, even if you |

really just think that's not God, but rather, god, it's still a little, uh . . . troubling!

4. My daughter's good friend got the fire breathing gig in that ad. |
|
She was going to take off her leg brace, but the director said leave it on.
Corporations suck, but we are happy when our friends get work.
I used to sing mass everyday, I have to pay attention to the music.
