Secret agent movies like James Bond were popular at this time. That's pretty much what this song is about ☺
This was the theme song to the TV series "Secret Agent" (1964-1968) starring Patrick MsGoohan as 'John Drake .. Agent M9'. The show was originally a British show titled 'Danger Man' (1960-1962). They called this "spy music" because of the dueling guitars and was associated with James Bond ..
They replaced the original music with this song.
@@brandonflorida1092 Here's the original theme from "Danger Man": ruclips.net/video/4u6jYfJgj-o/видео.html by the Edwin Astley Orchestra.
Here's the U.S. opening credits: ruclips.net/video/1PxrJoAlmjM/видео.html
In actuality, Patrick McGoohan wanted to make this the opposite of James Bond. With this in mind, he went on to create the iconic series "The Prisoner"
@@dangelo1369 All true. Who is number one?
@@dangelo1369 .. Thank you for the link. That opening was considered PG-13 back then I'm sure. Wish I had one of those "No turn .. Speed broilers" .. 😁 .. Now I have to see if I can find any clips of "The Prisoner". I'm curious now.
Johnny Rivers belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
He just sang this song which probably solidified he won't get there.
100%!!
He is not in? Should be...100%
It’s not that great. Screw you ohio. You still owe me money. Pay your fronts. Don’t do drugs. Always tip the driver👈
If he aint in the hall of fame after all of his hits, then it isn't worth a crap
Johnny Rivers has many great hits (he's 79 now). Secret Agent Man borrowed the twangy James Bond 007 vamp and brought it home for a top 40 classic hit.
Johnny Rivers songs:
Seventh Son 1965, Poor Side of Town 1966, Summer Rain 1968, Swaying to the Music 1977.
Love Johnny Rivers please do poor side of town or seventh son
Love you guys
Great suggestion!
This song "Secret Agent Man" by Johnny Rivers (1966). This is a take on the "James Bond movie 007" They have given him a number and taken away his name" JR.
This was the title song for a television serial of the same name that came out in1964-1968. Both song and television serial were a huge hit in the U.K. and here in the states. It became Johnny Rivers signature song and will forever be link with the television Serial "Secret Agent Man." Great reaction as always.
Ohhhh i love johnny rivers 🥰
The best performances are where you can tell the artist is having a blast performing. And he was all smiles here.
Johnny Rivers had a string of hits - I recommend The Poor Side of Town - great song!
The Cold War featured a lot of very real international espionage that inspired novels, TV shows, movies and songs. Check out Johnny Rivers' - Poor Side of Town and Mountain of Love.
Especially "The Spy Who Came In Out of The Cold"
YES! He is still performing - and a great artist.
You have to listen to 'Poor Side of Town' and 'Memphis, Tennessee' by Johnny. He has other greats as well.
Oh I love both those, especially "Memphis" because when I was young I didn't "get" it!
THIS CLASSIC COMES WITH AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR US ALL,,
THE O'JAYS "BACKSTABBERS"
Johnny Rivers is one of the greatest singers of all time
Love Johnny rivers he is a great singer has many great songs
❤️❤️🥰🥰❤️❤️ I’m ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, Thank you for asking, Mel!!! This song was referring to James Bond “007”. Your Great Grandmother was right, “keep listening and you’ll learn a lot!”! I admire her words!!! I’ve done all my life, out of instinct, or perhaps, having three very nosy older sisters, either way, it has served me well!!! 😉. ❤️ I Love you, Shawn and Mel!!! ❤️❤️🥰🥰❤️❤️
Memphis Tennessee is another Johnny Rivers song to react to ❤️💋😊☮️😎
Try his cover of "Memphis, Tennessee". He played it at Chuck Berry's funeral.
Please react to Johnny Rivers' "The Poor Side of Town"! Love that one most of all, he was great! Love the channel, thx!
Great song, I can't help play the Ace Ventura 2 scene over and over in my head when this song kicks in. 🤣👍
Love Johnny Rivers. Poor Side of Town, Seventh Son, Baby, I need your loving
I love this song. When we were kids we played it over and over and drove mom crazy 😜 😳 🤪
I saw Johnny Rivers, K.C. and the Sunshine Band, Willie Nelson and Lynyrd Skynrd at Big Springs in Huntsville Alabama about 20 years ago. They were all awesome
I always liked his version of "Baby I need your loving", the Four Tops version was good too
Loved your reaction...Johnny has alot of great music 🎶
Spy movies and shows were big in the 60s. Anyone remember the British show "The Prisoner" starring Patrick Magoohan?
Yes!
Rockin pneumonia and the boogie woogie flu, is one of my favorite songs by Johnny Rivers
Your Going To Like Jonny Rivers . We All Do Enjoy !
One of his later hits is "Slow Dancing"--which is MUCH different from this song.
Grade 9 school dance, great memories. Good song for a reaction.
AN ABSOLUTE MUST HEAR CLASSIC,, THE UNDISPUTED TRUTH "SMILING FACES SOMETIMES"
Get Smart TV show agents were named 86 and 99. It hid their work identity. That will help you understand that line.
This song was written for a TV show from the mid 60s, the opening song.
I learned that intro on my own in 1974, i was 6
I learned music from albums like this, really old country songs and HEE HAW WAS MY MTV
I play trumpet, baratone horn drums piano and did metal guitar in the 80s and 90s in Los Angeles
Music means a lot to me
Love Johnny Rivers !!! Play more..Please...LOL
I just LOVE LOVE LOVE you two! Too fabulous- can't wait til watch the next video😱! 😘
Love love love Johnny Rivers❤️❤️❤️
You can dance to it, you can listen to the story, you can dance to it, and you can rock out to it! What more do you need?? Song from my childhood.
It probably should. Alot of the entertainers put truth in their 🎵 songs. We are only now finding out and not everyone " sees" and " hears." Lol your reaction.
Johnny Rivers was a young girls dream, the looks, the voice, he had it all.
Thank you for sharing!
GOOD CHOICE.
This song was also used to open the Jackie Chan movie "The Spy Next Door."
Love, love, love!
The melodi in the beginning and little hymn in the middle was same soundbit from James Bond 007 ( known as; double O 7) Classic movies!
This song came out after the popularity of a couple James Bond 007 movies had been released. 007 is the number James Bond is referred by which is what the song is talking about
Wow, I forgot how good looking he was.
wow...I wish I was back there now watching "secret agent man" great memories.
I saw him around 1995 at the Boise Fairgrounds. What a treat for my first outdoors concert.
Such a good voice. Poor Side of Town pls 🎶🎵
I really enjoyed that, the first time I heard that song was when Bruce Willis sang it on his album return of Bruno. I thought it was Bruce's song, I've learned something today thank you S'n'M x
You've got to react to Johnny's song "Slow Dancing, Swaying to the Music". It's so romantic! You will definitely want to dance with each other.
A really cool song, & Johnny sang & played it to perfection.
Agent M-9 Secret Agent TV show in mid sixties.
I saw him warm up for Chuck Berry 40 years ago. Memorable show
Johnny Rivers made some incredible songs Memphis Tennessee is one of his best
JOHNNY RIVERS "UPHILL PEACE OF MIND"..TRUST ME ON THIS CLASSIC.
Heck yeah
I would like to suggest doing 2 songs at a time they are so short. Summer rain and slow dancing and Memphis and soo many other’s ! You two are a lot of fun KEEP IT UP ! Thank you
When a Korean guy I worked with first heard this song he thought it was Secret Asian Man. So naturally we started calling him that. He liked it and started referring himself as Secret Asian Man.
The decade James Bond was introduced to the world. Spawned many spy songs, TV shows, & movies. This song is so iconic as any Bond song. Rivers delivers again!
I always loved that song and Johnny Rivers greatest hits. The music to that one was my favorite though. Yes, the melody not the words like you said!! I seen him perform. He's a short man. But great!!😉❤
Johnny Rivers ❤ from the 60’s onward had many big hits, this was very popular theme song to a TV series - with a James Bond theme !! ‘Poor Side of Town’ is fantastic, played it many times 🎸😻 Still have several of Johnny Rivers vinyls from the 60’s/70’s love his voice & guitar playing ✨💜🥰
Shawn and Mel, This theme music from the world wide hit T.V. show " Secret Agent," ( U.S.A.) everywhere else " Danger Man." Starring Patrick McGoohan. He would follow this show by producing and starring in the cult classic, " The Prisoner." Cheers, Chris Perry.
Had a few people tell me this was very prejudice... the idiots thought he was saying Asian man. 🤣 Damn near peed myself... 🤣🤣
My son's friend thought the same thing LOL. He also thought Metallica said 'eggs delight' instead of 'exit light so...
I thought the same thing because he sounds as if he’s saying “Asian” instead of “Agent🫣”
You've got to do Swaying To The Music (Slow Dancing'). It's a romantic, slow moving, belt buckle shining, falling in love song.
It certainly helped me out on many a night in the dancehalls of the 70's and 80's. 😁
Johnny had a BEAUTIFUL Romantic song in 1977 called Slow Dancin' Swaying to The Music.
Poor Side of Town by Johnny Rivers ♥️
One of my favorite TV shows when I was six years old, a long with Have gun will travel, Highway patrol and the twilight zone
Johnny Rivers has some great songs. Fun songs, sad songs, and more. Great pick. Love ya
Arguably one of the best tv theme songs of all time. The show was British and played fairly straight but the song sold the show. In many ways, the lyrics foretold the series The Prisoner by giving him a number and taking away his name.
Memphis is a great song he did.
Tracks of my Tears by Johnny Rivers
This the first song I remember from the radio in those days.
Memphis Tennessee . Johnny Rivers! Dig it! Don't forget to Boogie by Canned Heat at Woodstock 🤠🇺🇸✌️🆒
A great dance song!
check out Johnny Rivers singing " Poor Side Of Town"...You will love it...It tell a great story.
You have to realize that when James Bond came out EVERY station had to have at least one secret agent (or similar character) TV show. My favorites were the ones from the UK
This song was a parody back in it's day. We used to laugh while we danced to it.
Everyone who was learning guitar wanted to learn that solo
Listening to this song, you too can be the Secret Agent Man for a few minutes, or imagine yourself someone similar or related ("Secret Agent Woman"? or the Femme Fatale in the story).
This is very true especially for Hollywood.
Do Poor Side of Town if you get a chance. So good.
For the longest time whenever I listened to this, I could have sworn Johnny was singing “Secret Asian man, Secret Asian man!”🤣🤣🤣🤣
His actual name is Johnny Ramistella. He was born in New York November 7,
1942. He grew up in my hometown of Baton Rouge, Louisiana and graduated from Baton Rouge High School. The school had a benefit to preserve the building which is an iconic landmark in Baton Rouge in the late 1990s and he came back to play the concert. Awesome performance! Loved your reaction☺️
ok. In early 60's there were some tv shows concerning espionage, etc. TV show called Secret Agent Man, The Saint, Peter Gunn (private investigator), I Spy, and a few others. A movie "In like Flynt" which was international spy; and then the series of movies 007 James Bond. This song was written in reference to these spy dramas.
He is singing about James bond movies that was popular in the 1960's. IT really a good dancing song the 1960's was a unique decade that went thru a lot charges from the early 60's with the very sweet innocent do wop era to the late 60's with the mini skit hippies flower power.
LOVE YOU GUYS.kEEP IT COMING 👍
Great pop song👍
Amazing song!
Saw Johnny in memphis in 1998!
My favorite Johnny Rivers song! The TV was good too.
It’s a reference to 007: Bond, James Bond! Loved it then and still love it!❤
one of those songs i always misheard the lyrics as a kid, i thought he was saying "secret asian man"! LOL
2023 - Living in Chicago, LA, New York “Odds are you won’t live to see tomorrow.”
welcome to the world of cold war espionage. (the song was the theme of a show called either 'danger man' or 'secret agent' that starred patrick mcgoohan between 1964 and 1967.)
This was the first Rock and roll song used as the theme song for a TV show
You guys are the two coolest people on Ytube
This is a theme song to a cool tv show
In England it was "Danger Man" as that was the original name of the show there, not Secret Agent Man. That was the show's American name.
☮️💙💙😳
