Michael Franti & Spearhead: Hey World (Remote Control Version)

[wolfninja31]

The time is coming. We take back media, and take back the country. It's our time now!!!

I love you Michael! You are right!

[manmuse9]

MICHAEL IS THE SECOND COMMING.

I AM AN OLD DEADHEAD AND HE IS THE BEST EVER

I BELIVE I HIM

I TRUST IN HIM

I LOVE HIM, ALL OF HIM

I'm I a big fan I gess so

[engram101]

YES this song is awesome. This little girl named Kaya sang this song at this open mic and I can't get this song out of my head!!! Such positivity.

[hellhunter9753]

what genre would this be i would call it rap,and they have distortion on a guitar and seems to have some aspects of reggae, but im not quite sure

[AriochMaluk]

His early stuff was principally Hip/Hop. But this is more of a Reggae/Rock fusion with a Hip/Hop influenced lyrics.

[AriochMaluk]

Also this song is awesome!!!!!!

@ lvsimo77

Yes that sure looks like a clash shirt to me also. I also an a very big fan of the clash I started listening to them back when I was in Jr. High School.

[lvsimo77]

it's probably just because i'm a big clash fan, but it sure looks like his shirt says "the clash" on it...am i imagining this or is it a clash shirt?

[sexywitch156]

i seriously can't stop listening to this album.. once again another amazing outing by michael franti and crew..always inspiring, always enlightening and always makes ya shake yer bootay!

[seff0001]

"Don't ever doubt the power of just one mind!"  Three cheers for individualism!

[haresgroove]

FANTASTICCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC!

[wotwotboi]

everyone, rise up, rebel, put up a fight and fuck the patriot act.

and one more thing - vote obama 08

[titanrm13]

doublethink - to think two thoughts simultaneously though they completely contradict themselves; Obama is another puppet to usher in world government and total enslavement by propelling a welfare state: everyone rise up, rebel and be true to yourself. The holy spirit is strong for the revolution!!!

[celix24]

the motorbikes scenes were taken in Indonesia :D

[meccafuck]

rebel rockers! kill your tv's!!!! you gotta put up a fight, fuck the federal reserve fuck the patriot act and do it! you gotta let go of remote control.

[scarredhope]

its so funny when you read reviews by so called music boffins sayoing "The record is called all rebel rockers but there is no rock" there are so many non hip cats that dont relaise that the terminolgy for people who are into reggae are rockers..you are awesoem micheal stay human dude

[FederalSocialist]

Excellent song. Good rhythm and solid lyrics.

[kellymorin]

I don't know if I like this song or not. It's kind of catchy but the lyrics feel kinda weak and the music isn't as good as his old stuff (imo).

Still love the actual video, anyways.

[bearealman]

Just posted it to my profile at Myspace, with the remarks:

I can't express how deeply moved I am by this new Franti track... Mind, body and spirit; rock, reggae and rap: the man's music meets my needs and exceeds my expectations. I love him. Musically. His message touches me and brings tears to my eyes: "My weapon and my method is no mystery./I didn't come here to chill. I came here to rock./To smash the empire with my boombox./You got to let go of Remote Control."

Go Franti! Go Spearhead! Go!
