    You probably received the KPMG song made last year, or maybe not. But some guy started collecting Corporate Anthems after that, and now there's a huge "hit list" at zdnet UK.

    <a href="http://www.zdnet.co.uk/specials/2002/it-anthems/">Corporate Anthems ROCK!</a>

    So, what is the purpose of these? Do they play them before corporate softball tournaments? Who in marketing or human resoures (or maybe the Chairman's wife) comes up with the idea of commissioning these songs.

    Or are there bands who send in unsolicited songs via their agents to try to sell them to the companies. lol

    The Osaka Seafood Concern Company Loyalty Song:

    Knife-a goes in,
    Guts-a come out,
    That's what Osaka Seafood Concern is all about.

    I suppose Enron's corporate anthem would be "I'm Broke" by Limp Bizkit?

    I'm reminded of the ORIGINAL Rollerball with James Caan. "Please stand for our corporate anthem".

    They were all so BAD!!

    Some of these are so ridiculous - that's a funny page, good find :).
