Song A Day #561: The iPhone Antenna Song

submitted by ant

1 decade 3 years 9 months ago

"Apple plays satirical iPhone Antenna Song at press conference. Here it is -- the Jonathan Mann video that Apple just played (no kidding) to start off their official press conference. No really -- right before Steve Jobs took the stage, he played this song for gathered reporters, and it's fair to say that the video shared in no uncertain terms what he thinks: 'The media loves a failure in a string of successes / the fact won't ever matter if they can make their bigger messes ... in terms of daily usage / I've yet to drop a call / so this whole damn thing is stupid...'"

Downloadable song: http://jonathanmann.bandcamp.com/track/the-iphone-4-antenna-song

there's an awful lot of hoopla
around the iphone 4 anttenna
when you grip it with the death grip
and you're call slips away

the media loves a failure
in a string of success
the facts won't ever matter
if they can make bigger messes

sure i can make it happen
but in terms of daily usage
i've yet to drop a call
so this whole damn thing is stupid

and you can call me a fanboy
i've been called worse things
but gizmodo just ridiculous
pulling their anti-apple strings

you bought a stolen prototype
get over it and move on
or hey even better
let's all sing this song
