Do we need taglines?

It will seem odd to some of you that I'm even asking this question here. Trust me, it seemed so to me too when a Creative Director I have a bit of respect for (no, I kinda do) once told me he found taglines most inessential. In a world full of taglines, and blogs devoted to taglines, it does seem a mite incongruous to believe they aren't required. No? Unless you happen to be fortunate enough to have a brand name like FCUK, a brand name and tagline all rolled into one. Speaking of which, any other brand-cum-taglines that come to mind?

    actually taglines are like friends. you'll enjoy their company only when they are good. so if you have a bad tagline, better not to have one.

    Lovely line about taglines being like friends. One great one is good enough to spend a lifetime in the company of. And the other thing: 'Whisper', perhaps.
