Alan Weiss’s Monday Morning Memo® – 1/28/13
January 23, 2013—Issue #175
This week’s focus point: What nonsense about lip-syncing. The recorded, reverential Gregorian Chant played before some Masses in church is far superior to the off-key live solos which the music director insists upon. You and I, daily, supply our simulacra to clients and customers in the form of videos, audios, text, and messages. I can’t sit and read this Monday morning missive to tens of thousands of subscribers, so the text, written the day before, will have to suffice. I love the “personalities” in the media with dyed hair, capped teeth, cosmetic surgery, and changed names who condemn Beyoncé for lip syncing! The message is the key. Whitney Houston’s Star Spangled Banner brought tears to my eyes, the best rendition I’ve ever heard. It was lip synced. But the tears were in the moment.
Monday Morning Perspective: You should have seen it, sir, before the war. — Said to a visiting Oscar Wilde by a southern plantation owner after the Civil War, when Wilde, desperate to find a positive topic for conversation, remarked that there was a beautiful moon that evening.
