Sport England "Phenomenal Woman" (2017) 1:30 (USA)

Maya Angelou already helped sell Apple, so why not female positivity, too? It's a shame her poetry gets drowned out by the anthemic music in what is essentially one long vignette spot of women exercising. Women. From all walks of life, all shapes and sizes doing all kinds of exercise in all kinds of sports, together or alone. As much as I like the poem, it makes me realize once again the importance of good music. The Apple spot let the music complement Angelou's still, yet even voice. This music treats it like a competition. Now that we've had two Angelou-read spots in as many years, could we give it a rest and let copywriters start writing again?
