Okay, this new Dominos commercial is driving me nuts! Anyone else? Why did they
use commercial recording artists to record opera-style music? I mean, geesh! There's a
TON of talent out there that could have done this SO much better! . . .

A friend of mine in the PR business tells me that those singers and actors that do
commercial voice-over work are a closed society. They actively protect their ground and
it is very difficult to become one of them. Knowing that, would you be surprised that they
just turn up the quadraverb and bellow like cattle? It is, after all, a caricature of real life
anyway.
