  • Love ... thnx !

  • Nice !

  • the introduction is BEAUTIFUL!

  • This was my favourite tv show when I was a teenager in the 70's-dreamt of becoming just like Brett Sinclair--what happened??!!

  • @unlikeanyotherhuman Just "rediscovered" this tune again, and it reminds me of my childhood.....which for some reason makes me kind of sad - back then so innocent, so free. Lovely version, and I too keep replaying it over and over.....

  • nostalgie , quand tu nous tiens! j'ai adoré, une série que je ne manquais jamais le samedi après midi, dans la télé est à vous. merci

  • @unlikeanyotherhuman Thanks dude. You're probably responsible for hundred thousand hits. Peace, Love, Life.

  • this would be great if someone will do a new remix of this song!!!

  • Remember when you could watch a video without having to sit through a commercial?

    Remember when music videos were uploaded by users and not VEVO

    Remember when all the info was to the right of the video?

    Remember you could rate a video 1-5 stars?

    Remember the famous yellow subscribe button?

    Remember when the users controlled the site and now corporations?

    WE MISS THE OLD YOUTUBE!

    Post this in every video and lets start a youtube riot.

    Time for Newtube?

  • Sans doute la meilleure série TV des 70's.....Le doublage en Français renforce incontestablement le mythe..........et, la Dino Ferrari me fait toujours autant envie...

  • Very impressed with your remake. I am a huge John Barry fan but found this modern remake to be very very soothing and I keep playing it over and over again... Should have gone to bed an hour ago.. But the tune is worth the loss of sleep. Nice job

  • Voi vittu mitä nostalgisia tunteita!!!

  • Good work, i like it vm

  • how did you manage to get that "bell" sound on the keyboard part (when the keyboard is alone playin) ?

  • Is it better than the original? Well it's very good, but it wasn't written from scratch like the original, and that makes ALL the difference in my veiw.

  • when i watched The Prsuaders i was 13 years old.  What nostalgic thinks hearing this song...

  • Amazing how time goes by. I watched the series a long time ago, and now the music and the theme is taking me back to the good old days. Thanks Curtis&Moore, for some wonderful memories and of course whoever composed this beautiul theme song.

  • yes a cracking version, yes great snare

    have you done more-would book you at our pub in morecambe uk

  • 5*!.

  • Great version, I like the snare drum...

  • Love it!

  • ke malinconia sta musica...

  • REALLY nice take on The Persuaders theme! I loved watching this show.

  • Brilliant!!

  • This is excellent.

  • Thanks for uploading this! Very beautiful music!

  • bloody good!

  • Eles eram muito engraçados. Vi quase todos

  • love it!!! Great job!! can someone tell me how i can get a copy?

  • The remake is great, but your basses are chopped, you need to sustain them. Otherwise, great job!

  • What can i say. Thank You Sir!!!

  • I definately want a copy of this!

  • Where can I get the MP3 for this updated version of Barry's theme? SWEET!!!

  • I am hooked! can someone tell me why I can't stop playing that tune over and over and over and over and oven!!!

  • Fell in love with this tune in its original version but must say this is well done. Hunted for years on the internet and found it at SoundAmerica which had hordes of themes from my past. Thanks to YouTube I can get my fix anytime. Many thanks.

  • I love this version!! good work!!

  • sorry, I was a teen when tryed to record this soundtrek whit my tape recorder (Christamas gift)... know only the J. Berry version... I love the original version.

    Guendy

  • This is a really good remake.. I still prefer the original, but seriously, can anyone ever beat the magic of John Barry?

    Good job man, it's really awesome to listen to :)

  • I really like this version. I think it captures the essence of the original....though the original is very hard to beat.

    Good job!

  • This remake is not bad...

    Of course, nothing can be compared to a score written by the one and only John Barry...

    by the way, it sounds like Barry, when writing for the Persuaders, was influenced by music written for the the Godfather film(s) which were popular at that time...

  • I have to agree -- that heavy bass line is a critical element. However, this would make for a good incidental arrangement for a 'stealthier' moment -- when the bass would get in the way.

  • really great update of a classic

  • really nice song. where can i find it?

  • interesting. now question. But.. the original... is the original.

  • Didn't really like at first but love it now, excellent job

  • Very weak. Sorry

  • Don't like it. Has none of the fantastic "in your face" bass as the original. Leave things be.

  • MASTERPIECE !!!

  • Stunning. Very haunting in a sexy and seductive way. Nicely done!

  • VERY GOOD

  • Very good but I think it's too long!

    However compliments!

  • I like this version ,it's great but if you reduce the base of the drums by half it will be perfect ,thanks for posting it .

  • Why was it called "The Persuaders?"

  • dkfelix: Unlike a lot of shoot-em-up, hard fisted detectives and such that filled the airwaves, the "Persuaders" used finesse, deceptions, cons, etc., to perform their assignments. Both leads were rich playboys with empty lives, and were recruited for difficult "missions impossible" around the world. Little violence and a lot of cleverness made it a very entertaining show.

  • Thank you

    - yes very entertaining- I used to watch it on Danish TV in the mid-70ies as a 12 year old child and they did a long awaited rerun some years ago. Now you can se them on German TV (with dubbed German voices though.)

    Danny Wilde made me wear black gloves made of some kind of plastic that looked like leather indoors.

  • this is pretty good go but sorry it isnt betther then the original but well done it is catchey

  • Oh - I don`t know markrpadmore, It`s growing on me ! I rememer seeing the original series - being an old git. How on earth have you arrived at this site - theme tune to The Persuaders ? Taste, I guess. Good on you !

  • Send me a copy please Boabyp, :D Thanks mate!

  • Love This Theme!!!!!!! and of course the 1971 original!! and Barry... John Barry is the Best ever ever ever composer!

  • Non male..non male...

  • Where can I find this song for download?

  • i'll second this one, can i get this for download aswell?

    absolutaly brillint

  • Hey excellent effort at a remake of one of the most memorable pieces of TV music! Not as good as the original, but good effort! :)

  • I agree with dlmiss. You'll never beat the original. By far and away the best theme music I've ever heard. Strangely enough the composer, John Barry was dismissive of this. At the time he didn't think it was much of a piece as music goes. How wrong you can be sometimes. Brilliant theme.

  • decent attempt but trying to better the best tv theme tune ever was always going to impossible

  • I agree, very cool show ,I watch very little T.V these days,too busy collecting my favourite shows from the 60's,70's & a little bit of the 80's.I recently bought the U.F.O series,was very popular here in Australia.Peace to you.

  • Hi Boabyp, I'm impressed with what you've done,thanks for explaining about the 3/4 waltz time.I watched this in the 70's.

  • nice mix but I think you could have been more inventive with the drumming - ie more fillers to the bar rather than straight 4/4 tempo - otherwise great

  • This clip is like this old series, outstanding !

  • Thanks for your kind comment dude.

  • This is excellent job. I love it just as I loved the original. You have certainly brought the rich synth sounds which seem to have been locked away in the 70s. Good job and thanks for bringing back memories from a bygone period of my life.

  • brilliant-bravo boabyp

  • Thank you for your kind comment.

  • I did a cover of it twenty years ago...never released.but here hummmmnot so bad but it can be really better. Specially the arrangment . John barry was somebody that had a BIG talent for the instrumentation and the secret of the magyu was there.try again ...please.

  • The arrangement and the tempo of this track are EXACTLY the same as the original. It's the single version and not the TV theme version. If you did a cover of it then put up or shut up and let's hear it and we'll see who's holds up to scrutiny. Phew! Everybody's a critic.

  • try again i said ...maybe with more maneers to defend ur point of view. All right i'll look for this old versions done with the twenty years ago technology .recorded on a portable 4 tracks....but i never said that mine is better than ur but definitely done with more risks.

  • This IS the problem, it is exactly the same arrangment that u did, but the magy of the instrumentation is not there. And i know that it's difficult to do what J barry did.But u choose to bring voices samples so why dont y try to go farder in other ways.... stay cool boabyp and continue to work. I'll look for this cover. i don't want to argue with a persuader fan cause i'm one also. Peace

  • Sorry Dude, you caught me on a bad day. Peace.

  • Do it not exist a French cover on this John barry hit, Thank's, I alway's liked this melodi.

  • Very nice!! I adore the original score but this is a great effort :)

  • Thanks, from a mod too! Watch this space for a remix and video of Frank Wilsons "Do I love you? (indeed I do!)

    We are the Mods! KTF

  • Very good interpretation - well played/designed ... a lot of work's gone into this, I know! EXCELLENT

  • Thanks dude, it's not such an effort if you enjoy doing it. Cheers.

  • A creditable version, have listened twice in a row, like the visuals more. Well played sir.

  • Thanks 4 listening dude, cheers.

  • nice effort, but nothing beats the original :)

  • I know dude it's a classic.

  • You`re a wise man, whe are.

  • Good work,a catchy twist on the original

  • Cheers dude, thanks for listening.

  • why play around with something that was perfect in the first place! tempo needs uping for a start, actualy, leave it alone.

  • ahhh...a critic knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.

  • Soory mate, Im a diehard Roger fan, a luddite when it comes to changing the past!

  • i jumped the gun it does get slightly better 1 min into it, but still not a patch on the original, sorry

  • Thanks 4 listening anyway dude, we'll try to accomodate your refined tastes the next time.

  • dreadful, slow and poor

  • Where's the love dude? It's actually the exact tempo of the original.

  • Brilliant! Is it possible that I could get a copy of the mp3?

  • Sure dude, glad you like it. Email me and i'll post you a copy.

  • Ooh me too!

  • Thanks for posting! This version is very good, very classy, keeping up with the spirit of the original.

    Would you mind having it available for download?

    Thanks.

  • Thanks dude, we try. If u email me with your addy I'll post u a copy.

  • Not bad -- and I am very particular when it comes to rearranging classic music -- trying to make it fresh while not completely destroying the original is NOT easy. (Check out the 'new' version of "The Chipmunk Song" for an example of THAT.)

    One 'complaint' -- there is a very definite music cue as to where "The Persuaders!" logo appears -- that was missed, but otherwise -- it FEELS pretty good.

  • Thanks dude, we try.

  • Yes Boap, you are right!

    Because YouTube puts the Videos only into Mono, this is a Great Problem! But your New Theme, is just brilliant!! Respekt for this especially Work!!

  • They screwed this up - the drums are too sharp

    and ruins the overall ambiance of the tune.

  • the true mix doesn't come over very well when the sound is compressed down for youtube. The bass on the original is more pronounced and the drums aren't quite so isolated. But thanks for the feedback.

  • i prefer the original however a very good version somewhat sharper if they ever do a remake i hope they keep the theme and not ruin it like randal and hopkirk

  • I really liked it well done, great to see so many other fans still out there.

  • not bad ,

  • nice, any chance for a download?

  • Takes a little getting used to but pretty faithful to the original...liked it !
