KPMG, PwC and EY all have company songs... The lyrics are really amusing.

Might as well type 'em up out of boredom.

Btw I could be wrong about a few of the lyrics- I don't really understand the names of the divisions but that's roughly what it sounds like in the mp3.. I think I got it off mp3.lycos.com~

The EY song is more of a chant than a song I think~

The other songs aren't that flash hot either- but they're still fun to listen to (in moderation). In fact, it has just come to my attention KPMG has an old song called "Power of One"- which is the prequel to their original hit "Our vision of global strategy".

KPMG - Our Vision of Global Strategy said:
KPMG - We're as strong as can be

Chorus
KPMG - We're as strong as can be,
We dream of power and energy,
We go for the gold, together we hold
Onto our vision of global strategy.

Repeat Chorus

First Verse
We create, we innovate,
We pass the worms that are laid [Not sure about this one - might be 'ones that are late']
A global dream... this our dream of success that we create.
We'll be number one, we're [something] and fun
Together reach the bus and run
For gold - that shines like the sun in our eyes.

Chorus

Repeat Chorus

Second Verse
The time is now to lead the way,
We share the same the idea
That may win by the end of the day.
Our strength is here to stay.
Indentity, one energy,
One strategy, with sympathy.
These are the words that will lead us into a new world.

Chorus

Repeat Chorus

Repeat Chorus (again)

Kay-Pee-Emm-Geee - we got the power...
Ooooh-oohh...
Lyrics from TheRegister- http://www.theregister.co.uk/2001/03/08/kpmg_rocks_the_world_not/

Anyhow here are the lyrics, courtesy of ZDNet.

KPMG - Power of One said:
The strength of us all is the power of one!
Our greatest moments are still to come!

Time is just a measure
Of moments come and gone
Some are lost forever
And some reach far beyond
And the wheels, they keep on turning
As we share a moment's glory
And the flame keeps on burning
Through our neverending story!

So as the river runs,
Let your spirit flow
Let it take you where you wanna go
In this world, there's a place you belong
Let the world hear your sooo-ooo-ong
And the strength of us all is the power of one!
Our greatest moments are still to come!

Up ahead, a new horizon
Is calling out to you-ooo-ooooh
And the dream you fix your eyes on
Is the one you make come true
Some say that it takes wisdom
While others chase a dream
And we celebrate the moment
Of our second century

So as the river runs,
Let your spirit flow
Let it take you where you wanna go
In this world, there's a place you belong
Let the world hear your sooo-ooo-ong
And the strength of us all is the power of one!
Our greatest moments are still to come!

Greatest moments are still to come!
Our greatest moments are still to come!
Our greatest moments are still to come!
Our greatest moments are still to come!
Our greatest moments are still to come!
Our greatest moments are still to come!
Our greatest moments are still to come!

So as the river runs,
Let your spirit flow
Let it take you where you wanna go
In this world, there's a place you belong.
Let the world hear your sooo-ooo-ong
And the strength of us all is the power of one!
Our greatest moments are still to come!

Our greatest moments are still to COOOOOOOOMMMMME!!

They're pretty amusing. To show the PwC songs or not... I can't seem to find the full set of lyrics but I found extracts from the two of 'em... If I get time, I'll type the rest of the lyrics.

I think they get proper vocal artists/singers to sing them (as in... ppl who can sing- not ppl who are well known) and then they play the songs at company functions to boost morale? Beats me... but wait'll you download the mp3s... Classics.

Yeh I'm also wondering where you at... I think some of the mid-tiers start in January.

ROFL back in my sister's time she started end of January (back in 99). I don't start until July sometime >_> I guess on the upside at least I get to enjoy 1 semester of FT uni?

Yeh it would be good to enjoy Sem1, going out and what not. But meh, what can you do.

I have officially started the painful process of waiting...waiting to see whether I am good enough for uni or not. Sigh.

Wishing you all the best Meads- if we all get in, maybe we should have a BoS-trainee meetup!.. after all, most of us are based in the CBD.
