Grantland’s Rembert Browne missed the 1980s because he is all young and stuff. Every once in a while we make him watch YouTube videos from the era and he “explains” (read: doesn’t explain) them. This is him “explaining” Lionel Richie’s “Hello.” Lionel, go back to your classroom.

3:33 Though Lol “She never Answers his question”

chiguy23 says:

Is it three you’re looking for?

Jordan Brewer says:

Andddd shes blind.

MrVanDep says:

If she wasn’t blind this video could be debatable in terms of creepiness, but her being blind takes it to a whole other level

MPHswayze says:

I would pay any amount of $ for that Frederick Douglass bust.

joseph riley says:

Exactly how old is the student at the locker with the hat turned backwards at 1:05???

magron1987 says:

Rembert got his mojo back with this, in the other videos he coudnt deliver the same funny punch that his writing usually brings. This was funny as hell.

rcarter51 says:

That was hilarious…  Helllooo… LOL

kidkanYeBLAH says:

OMFG….. THIS WAS BEYOND FUNNY!!! xD

ILIKESTORIES says:

I love all the videos, but the main part is how much fun it’s apparent you have making them. Great stuff!

coachurly says:

Lionel stalking blind students in full creep mode. Damn I miss the Eighties!

faraji00 says:

Lionel Richie said he complained to the video’s director that the statute didn’t look like him. Richie said the director reminded him that it was done by a blind girl. Richie was ok w/ it after that.

skullwingsword says:

Thank You disembodied British lady voice :)

tuccipopthat says:

Is that ESPN’s John Clayton at 1:05?

Rob Perryman says:

So has Simmons finally ceded control over Rembert’s segment to Rembert?

nakameguroyakkyoku says:

oh man that shit was funny as hell!

Eddie Smith says:

But, but cat videos are awesome too!

nineteenthly says:

Has anyone seen the video to ‘Total Eclipse Of The Heart’? Same year and same idea. The thing is, people just didn’t think that way back then. The main thing i remember about this at the time was that people said it was like a soap opera.

MrDeBary says:

Probably one of the best ones yet. Hello!

EthanTack says:

I would recommend LaToya Jackson’s “Heart Don’t Lie” music video… I still have no idea what happened in that. 

funforalgernon says:

Best Rembert to date!

afuNk1g says:

wowowow this was gold. YOU BETTER NOT START SINGING AGAIN

Orlando Tragic says:

smoothest stalking ive ever seen

MrBiggSmoove says:

Ok….in this “school”, there were periods and the students had lockers…Which would signify that this was a high school…which would make the blind girl a high school student…If she wasn’t at least 18, wouldn’t that make Lionel a child predator??????

coachurly says:

I always thought Lionel was a college professor but the lockers make me wonder. Was this high school? Was Lionel “Dancing On the Ceiling” Richie portraying a perv in the video? Either way Rembert was on point!

jemmartin21 says:

Nobody acknowledges that he is singing about how he can “see it in her eyes” and she is blind? I miss the days before extreme political correctness…

Brad Richter says:

this was back when stalking was ok, Michael Jackson was normal, and Prince was the weird one

realinfamousb says:

LOL


Barack McBush says:

“Something’s going on in the Pottery Room,… It’s Lennox Lewis!” HA!

Barack McBush says:

That’s true! lol!

Monique Sharp says:

This guy doesn’t know art when he sees it! Would he rather see LR walk up to a stripper and just start singing? Personally, I love LR and I love this video!

sirNemanjapro says:

Yeah, Lionel is like a ghost in the video, no question about it. When he is teaching the acting class, its not him, its some other person but he is “inside”. Its like the THE GHOST movie. :)

tallsmile28 says:

We liked stalking back in the 80s

amagnes says:

Best blind sculpter ever?

Jason Traber says:

Why did she need the light on to read at night?
How did she know what his face was like? She never touched dude or saw him, literally.

Jake May says:

I guarantee he says hello.

MeatteMeech1 says:

Lionel Richie looks like a light skinned RG3!

Marcus Jones says:

give the people what they want
