LYRICS
You see me rolling around in a black Mercedes
cruising around town and it's packed with ladies
Gotta keep it going yeah I'm roaming the map
No I never stop until I find something to tap
Awww yeah...
[CHORUS]
Nokia, iPhone, Galaxy 3
Facebook and your search history
Gmail, voicemail, I'm gonna grab it
if it's got an on/off switch, baby, I'll tap it
I'm making a list, checking it twice
it doesn't matter the message or even kind of device
Every pic your daughter sends? We've got it ingrained
Why do you think Anthony Weiner wants back in the game?
Surveilling reporters, don't ever forget it
I got so many AP docs you'd think I'm getting college credit
Yeah we're saving your searches, that's just a reality
"Yes We Can" ain't just a slogan it's our view on legality
[CHORUS]
I'll tell you this, sir, I greatly abhor
your violating the Constitution upon which you swore
and a full investigation is needed and more
You ever Google Justin Bieber pics? I yield back the floor...
Look, this is not a big deal? Why are you having a cow?
Look at all these innocent people we can focus on now?
Who cares about civil "rights?" I mean, do we all really need em?
So you'll oppose the individual mandate? Why do you hate freedom?
Look, with front-facing cameras our intel has grown
Look at the video we've collected from this year alone
This is outrageous, we should be able to use the bathroom freely!
Look just the other, wait, hello? Hi. How'd you get this number? Really?
Nothing is private anyway, we're posting on walls
So what's the big deal if the government is saving your calls?
We share our info with companies, this debate should be chilled
Everybody come quick! A straw man has been killed!
So the next time you're up late and you're surfing your phone
Let me reassure you, girl, that you're not alone
But if you don't think the surveillance state is really ideal
Text yourself about it, let us know how you feel.
[CHORUS]
This was shot and edited over three days with a crew of one, using a borrowed car and our regular ReasonTV camera. The cost of production was essentially zero.
Think how mutch money to goverment would have needed to make this.........
TheRedTomahawk somewhere around $3 million
Matt Fellows More like 3 billion
Ok???
@@theredtomahawk6206 maybe a few million
"Text yourself about it and let us know how you feel"
LMAO!
Gold.
Every once in a while I watch a bunch to remy music videos. They’re absolute gems
I pray to the NSA
At least i know they are listening
Ruby Honey 😂😂
South Park reference
Lol
Yes
They're the ONLY branch of government that actually LISTENS to people.
"Text yourself about it, let us know how you feel." lol
I think we need more people out spreading the word like this in a way that will entertain people. I couldn't do it myself but kudos to anybody who can
+Aaron Reichert Why can't you? The only thing stopping you from doing it is you.
hinro you have never heard me sing lol.
Aaron Reichert Everyone is entertaining to someone. You don't have to sing. You just need to entertain.
Girl, you know I'd never even glance at anyone but you. Unless you count wiretapping the phones of a hundred million other women in the US.
Remy is the best
"Everybody come quick, a strawman has been killed!"
Funniest thing I've seen in a long time! XD
Just added a Facebook-able link at the top of the text.
Thanks for spreading the word!
Almost 3 years later Anthony weiner becomes relevant again
and 5 years later people are shocked that facebook was collecting their data.
One of the best Remy and Reason videos to date. Well done!
one of the best to marry too! Well done!
Such an apporiate channel for me too listen to while I do my American Politics and Government homework.
I just learned about Remy and this channel on the Stossel show on FOX. Awesome. Keep up the good work.
I just found it too. Love it!
This is bloody brilliant!
How did I miss this one? Another absolute gem from Remy.
Grooving to very clever satire. Right-of-Center politics needn't be dull. Go Remy!
He isn't right wing. He is libertarian
@@christopherender8164 .... Libertarian right
@@christopherender8164Modern Whig
@@christopherender8164 or an "independent"
Libertarianism would typically be pretty far right (just before you get to things like anarchy) in the old sense where left is big government and right is strong civil rights and weak government. That said I dont know if you can say that anymore as the right today is pretty far left, even if they're kind of a different big government animal.
Why do think Anthony Weiner wants back in the game? lol
Remy is a genius, been following him since RUclips inception (goremy).. keep them coming.
I bought Baklava solely because of his song and one day...... I'm gonna make some grape leaves haha 😄
I literally CANNOT download this enough. Top notch.
From Pirate Bay
"How'd you get this number?" "Really?" Oh gosh, I'm dying laughing...and a little on the inside, too.
"text yourself, baby. Let us know how you feel" -- I lost my shit there.
I can't get enough of Remy's songs, fucking shame he doesn't get more views.
This is one of my favorite videos ever.
I forgot about this song for five years. I found it again. Finally
He is truly one of the most talented comedians i have seen !!!
My new favorite..... till I watch 3 more videos.... 🤣🤣🤣
My favorite Remy clip so far, excellent!
Right on Remy! You once again nailed it!
The text yourself about it line might be the best I've ever heard.
Underrated video. Still relevant in 2020!
This is hillarious! Dying over here..
OMG! That was freaking awesome! I'm sharing!
The perfect counterpart to Weird Al's "Party in the CIA"
And now I must go enlighten myself.
We need another Snowden RIGHT NOW.
Why? People don’t care. 2nd time Jesus comes back to life will be for the final judgement 😂
I love it how he plays more than 1 caracther, keep it up remy!
Oh my.
This is the best thing I've seen all day.
This guy is freaking awesome. thanks Remy
Love this. Has a great rhythm to it.
That is what I'm talking a about
I think I watched it 10 times already.
AMAZING
Keep em coming
This is the most hilarious thing I've seen since forever!
There are a lot of people out there that know their activity is being tracked by the government, but many of them don't really think it's a big deal. To them, I say to read "Fahrenheit 451," since it shows how a government can use such information.
This is absolutely amazing!
Remy is not the savior we deserve, but the one we need!
GENIUS!
Nice work!
Watching on the toilet to show my support for my brothers in the NSA.
GoRemy is my hero. Goooooooo Remy. I'm going to go text myself now.
p.s. - I bought my skills on EBAY.
Genius. Hilarious take on a subject that makes me near apoplectic. So many good lines! "If you don't think that the spyin' stuff is really ideal/Text yourself, let us really know how you feel".
Great job! Brilliantly done!
Hit hit hit how did I not see this sooner!
too cool! and current! gotta love it!
Just watching this stuff already has you on a list... so liking it makes no difference ;)
Chilling to something that gives me the chills. Am I wrong to like this?
And no, Mr. NSA agent, that was a rhetorical question. You need not tell the IRS agent next door to audit me.
Great video, too bad it's true
Go Remy!
TPB You rule for featuring this. Freakin funny as hell. I gotta Tap It
Reason.com, Reason Magazine, and Reason TV, I am quite sure they have plenty of digital studio camera's at their facility. Between donations and advertising, there is no shortage of money. Libertarians give heavy donations to their own, all funding is strictly volunteer.
Absolutely awesome!
This deserves more views, the only problem is that people that watch these type of videos are not interested in politics.
The hook of this song alone makes me want to lol. GoRemy rocks!!!
Damn GoRemy still exists? I remember the lyrics to several of his older raps man. I missed this.
Why doesn't this have millions of views?!!
"I got so many AP docs, you think I'm getting college credit." LOL.
I can't wait to see this in the kindle textbooks of future history classes.
"Text yourself about it, let us know how you feel."
OUTSTANDING
'. . . send a text to yourself and let us know how you feel.' Epic!
Im gonna share this on FB.. till everyone seen it.. Dude Rocks This.. AWESOME!
Great song. Don't worry we're all on the list now. There on our list.
AWESOMENESS!
We miss you at Reason.com. Come back to us.
Love this so much...watched it like 30 times since yesterday......."did everyone get their free obamaphone?" Hahahahahaha!
As I write this: 300 views and 900 likes. Life is good and Remy is brilliant.
Shout out to all those who are listening to this in 2021
Remy is my new personal hero.
Anyone else disappointed that there are not a million views yet?
I'd tap that app! Great video!
Thats just the way youtube is. It takes time for numbers to refresh. If you check back tomorrow,the number will be in the 10s of 1000s...hopefully more.
yes it was i shared it last night and this moring it was gone. so i reshared it.
this song performed
a warrantless search
of my heart DOG! ...
I believe it's satire... which is an art form. This is awesome!
This needs to be on the radio!
I like most of your videos but this one is the best one yet
Well, they had a friend with a nice SLK Mercedes (about $50k if my memory serves, but they just borrowed it), a nice DSLR (about $4k) and a few talented people already on staff. Since they do so many videos, the cost of the camera is amortized to almost $0, they pay the talent their regular salaries, so we're down to a few hundred in props and about a gallon of gas for the car.
Thanks TPB for posting this. This is great
ReasonTV + TPB = Badassness
I just noticed yesterday that google saved my searches from years ago for an account made before this policy was made. Had to delete every activity
Rems is to AWESOME!
What is the original song?
You have no idea how much they do enjoy that
"The TSA Song" by Without a Face on youtube > NSA Slow Jam
Thats a late-model SL, retailing at $110,00 and you can shoot great video with cheaper DSLR cameras, around $1,800
Not an american or anything but as far as i know theres 2, 1st and 2nd, both are co dependant, the first reminds you that the second exist, and the second protects the first...
Not bad not bad, that's what I like to see.
Good one!
this reminded me of old school remy ;)
wish he made more videos like the mcdonalds rap and turbo tax etc ;P
I do love me some Remy. So quick and smart!
Touche! What epic level wit you possess! Also, please know that I greatly enjoy the angry tears you're crying over how Reason doesn't dedicate 100% of their videos to Judge Napolitano.
