This is not the theme song from The Prisoner. It is from the series Danger Man from England. In the U.S. it was called Secret Agent. The Prisoner came later. Terrific theme song......

[deathtoll09]

SECRET ASIAN MAN

[Lucifer2066]

@ err0r You have to understand how err0r got his name. He's mad cuz he tried to blow up a bus and burnt his lips on the exhaust pipe and flunked terrorism 101. So in disgrace, he got demoted and now he has to wear a burka and lip balm while he spews hateful comments on the only American site he can find...youtube, in between getting mouth raped by his former classmates who find his swollen lips inviting. He watches this video dreaming of being a Secret Agent Man to escape his life of shame.

[jmmm608]

Great song, but the thing that bothers me is where did he get that giant Reeses he's standing on?

[joshanator1]

WOW! thx man!

[Wickedywacktack]

i cant stop listining to it lol

[themredweirdoshow]

Let's see, it sounds exactly like the record, yet Johnny has no microphone, his guitar has no cord on it, and even if he had one, there are no amps around to plug it into. So how did he do it? Yep, that's right - voodoo magic!

[EGarrett01]

That guitar riff is HOT. Did the James Bond movies rip this off or did this rip off James Bond?

[Badobsession89]

@EGarrett01 good question

[14up0]

all jokes aside tis one of the best songs ever. Great performance!

[14up0]

I love this but is he standing on a giant cupcake?

[nohardfeelings09]

@14up0 Looks more like a peanut butter cup.

[shadowheart52]

[Planktontwo]

How do you NOT like this song?? 27 people are idiots

[jromanr01]

27 people are Musically Impared

[hotwheels14901]

I LOVE THIS SONG

By the way there could be a secret mic

[IsCumaFut2]

@hotwheels14901 all the songs back in ed sullivan shows were all mimed.. thats teh way it twas..

[rps1122]

@IsCumaFut2 sorry pal but Ed Sullivan demanded live performances of everyone. And unless you have a tin ear you can tell a lip synch from live without even looking. Beatles. Beach Boys, Stones all played live. Look some of them up in here.

[IsCumaFut2]

@rps1122 oh ok cause we had top of teh pops here and all them were mimed. there was some guy on here few weeks ago ditching.. i also stated they could be using a boom mic above....

[IsCumaFut2]

@hotwheels14901 also they could be using a boom mic over head.. elvis used these quite a lot

[JMatthewCharles]

@IsCumaFut2 Everything was lip-synched on American Bandstand too. They didn't have a proper soundstage.

[hotwheels14901]

I LOVE THIS SONG

[err0r]

This song was actually inspired by a secret agent who really WAS Asian. My Dad met Johnny back in the early 70s in a bar. Apparently the song was inspired by Johnny's experience of beinging interrogated at an airport by American agents. He picked up someone else's bags by mistake--bags that belonged to a Chinese double-agent. Pretty big deal, back in the days of Communist paranoia.

[WEL1AZ]

I found this by searching secret asian man :D

[Slaya0Zombies1243]

@WEL1AZ me 2!!!

[rockefeller2012]

@WEL1AZ

[Slaya0Zombies1243]

[BeanerOverTheBorder]

This guy used to live 2 houses down from my mom, kinda cool to find that out from her that she used to play with him when they were kids

[Nefarioso]

I wonder why they did not use the original Johnny Rivers version of this song in the Ace Ventura movie?

[waverag]

is he standing on a giant cupcake?

[inspectorcritic]

Me and a Dallas cop wrote this song, on Nov,22, 1963

[sistersheree]

Secret Cajon man

[urwutueat1]

[47DJC]

Saw him live at the Whiskey A Go Go in San Francisco in the sixties. What a show. All the seats were right next to the stage. Oh to be young again.!

[pla1945]

The TV series with patrick McGoohan was pretty great too.

[GNRandSTP911]

[Vstar4me]

Johhny Was soooooo COOL, and this song was the definition of Cool in its day. Never lost its edge. I sure had alot of fun hiting the drums w/it, thanks for the memories.

[retiredscot]
