Remy: Imagine There's No YouTube (John Lennon Parody)

As protests against "The Innocence of Muslims" video span the globe - and U.S. officials pressure YouTube's owner Google to restrict free expression - Remy imagines a world where politicians cave to angry mobs and dictate what we can see on YouTube.

Written and performed by Remy. Edited by Meredith Bragg.

About 2:30 minutes.

Lyrics:
Imagine there's no rainbows
piano playing cat
no selling Winnebagos
because some mob got mad

Imagine other people
dictating what we see on YouTube

Imagine no intruders
no making people scared
No Hasselhoff and burgers
would Honey Badger care?

Imagine other people
dictating what we see on YouTube

You may say I'm a dreamer
the situation's too hostile
I hope someday they'll join us
and we all can Gangnam Style
