Square One TV: Reimy: Estimation

[Sharptooth100]

A remake of this song with Katy Perry; Britney Spears; Mandy Moore or Selena Gomez sounds terrific. Maybe the Glee cast should also do it.

[KarlBonner1982]

For whatever reason I always remembered this song being a bit more melancholy, with the first chorus coming right as she's booted off the elevator. But apparently my memory wasn't perfect.

[hecklovetch]

Estimate...... Ooh Estimate.... Hahaha I can't believe this is on youtube, i remember this from a looooong time ago. Ty tira.

[SonnyAMan]

Legendary...simply legendary.

[LocoYoFla]

Wow these guys have no manners asking a lady to get off the elevator haha

[cbiswhite]

Oh my! I remember this from fourth grade, and 18 years later I STILL hum the tune whenever I'm estimating anything!

[VanillaLimeCoke]

700 pounds for a stadium court elevator??

Yeah that's smart.

When was that built in?

1950?

[JoelsHitShow]

Poor Arthur. I bet in real life he wears a leather jacket and rides a Harley.

[ckluv2skat]

I remember this song sounding a lot cooler, but then again last time I heard this I was 10. lol

[playmates101]

i was thinking of that song for YEARS! I FINALLY FOUND IT! Thanks for posting this! Memories like this will NEVER GET OLD!

[americanidol434]

THE ELECTRIC COMPANY IS BACK ON TV!

[Aleancelo]

I think she also has a 1989 song entitled "Never Gonna Let You Go."  I hope somebody will put a video of that song.

[playmates101]

@Aleancelo I think they already did! Look it up!

[Aleancelo]

@playmates101 Thank you. But I could not find it. I also could not understand Japanese characters. How can I find that video? Thank you very much for your help.

[Aleancelo]

@playmates101 Do you think you can send the video to me? Thanks a million.

[CitySon]

OMG, I STILL SING THIS SONG TO THIS DAY!!! (the chorus that is)

[erosguard22]

yeah...so do I >>>>

i thought i was the only freak :)

[ivycurls]

...right, everyone on that video totally weighs the same as Reimy. Hahaha.

[justiec]

Is Square One TV on DVD?  I am in the field of education and it would be a great way to improve kids' math skills. If anyone knows the answer, I would be very appreciative.

[ibutton77]

Nope, they recently released Electric Company on DVD.. no Square One.

CTW is a bunch of greedy bastards. They don't create anything, they just bankroll the people who do, and then hold the resulting properties to gouge as much as they can out of the public.

That being the case, they will probably NEVER release square one to DVD, and keep charging $100+/day to rent the rotting VHS tapes they have to schools.

[jmoore279]

I remember this song after all these years.

[vampeal7]

Reimy is dreamy (i know it rhymes)

I love her J-pop stuff too. I just wish the album at the end was real in the USA =(

I'd love an mp3 of this song.

BTW, Arthur, get rid of that dumb clicker.

Call me crazy but I think Reimy winked at him during the close up at the end.

[gameshowluvr86]

Reimy's like an Asian Paula Abdul... :-)

[Violet9Spider]

WOW! This was my favorite SQUARE ONE song ever! I haven't seen this in over 20 years... THANKS!

[gameshowluvr86]

Very Paula Abdul-like. :)

[Surreal469]

yeah and that's not a good thing. Her voice isn't that great.

The song is rockin though

[jmoore279]

It's amazing how much stuff my brain retains from my childhood.

[hamsterama]

Wowie! I last saw this when I was seven years old, and now, 15 years later, I still remember this song like it was yesterday!

[DragonLord1975]

I didn't know Reimy was a J-Pop Idol when I watched this. Now I know. "And knowing is half the battle".

[rocky4x4]

how rude! No man should ever humiliate a woman like that!

[takaborn]

Hi,tiradorfranco2! Have you seen them? PiCaratDiamond's uploarded latest Reimy's Promotion Videos. Reimy's singing "Tower of Vanity" in English.

Another 6 videos, she's singing in Japanese. My favorites are "DAKISHIMETAI","Two of Us" and "Tower of Vanity. She is very "Kawaii"! These videos are uploarded from Japan. I think, they will be going to be removed here soon. Don't miss them! Bye.

[tiradorfranco2]

Thanks for the info! It is great to learn more about Reimy.

[emilysong2000]

These Square One tunes are getting to be catchy.

[tiradorfranco2]

There is a link on the "related videos list". It's called "Reimy Seishun No Regret". Very 80's sounding.

[TonyDuMont]

Whatever happened to Reimy, in case you were wondering?

[tiradorfranco2]

I don't know but that "no regret" song with the doll playing the harmonica is pretty cool. Maybe someone who is familiar with Japanese culture can shed some light on how big she was and what became of her. I think it's safe to say that she didn't exactly cross over.

[TonyDuMont]

Which "no regret song" was it? I don't think I've heard it before.

[tiradorfranco2]

That is Reimy in Japanese that I copied off another upload on youtube. I had no idea she was a real artist until I did a search here and found other stuff from her.

[JoelsHitShow]

What does the Asian character keyword you used mean?

[ktujon]

thanks for putting up these videos this one especially, i wish they would come out on dvd, you have that one song called "more than one way" where those kids go camping and that one song by larry cedar "change your point of view" those were rare

[tiradorfranco2]

It is a shame it's not available on DVD. I'd certainly get it. Regretfully, I don't have either one of those videos you mentioned. "Change your point of view" was actually my most sought after video and was the whole point of me waiting with the VCR ready to record everytime it looked like a music video was about to come on. I was never able to get it on tape so hopefully someone out there can upload it.

[takaborn]

Hilarious Song! Who wrote this? Trevor Veitch?

Reimy's performed song "Speed of Light" in the Movie "Arthur 2 On The Rocks".This song has been written by Deborah Gibson, produced by Trevor Veitch in 1988.

I'm very happy to know Reimy had come on TV and meet her new song. Thank you!

[tiradorfranco2]

Good question! This is a song from the math show "Square One TV" that aired in the U.S. in the late 80's and early 90's. I don't know if the songs on the show were written by people from the show or by the guest artist but whoever it was that wrote it did a good job.
