Johnny Rivers "Slow Dancin'" (Swayin' to the music), best song
☺️ I loved that song! 😍
Yes, It’s my personal favorite !
Now that one is slow. There's nothing slow about Secret Agent Man.
@@dewaynejelks9088 Have they reacted to *Slow Dancin’* yet? I’d love to see/hear their reaction!
Wow, I’d forgotten about that song! I think I had the 45, love this song!
"Secret Agent Man," "The Avengers," "The Man from UNCLE," "I Spy," spy shows were once very popular on TV.
Rivers not being in the Rock N Roll hall of fame is just plain crazy.
Plain stupid. I don't why, either. He achieved some negative reputation (a jerk) with some of his touring musicians... but NOTHING like Chuck Berry did-!
RRHOF is just a farce run by liberal democrats...
@@RickeyWilkersonVoices Not being in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a badge of honor.
@@DerekDominoes With their history I can see your point.
All the Hall of Fames have become a joke these days. If I were an older artist or sports plays I wouldn't care about it anymore.
In the '60s (yeah, I'm old) there was a TV show in the US called "Secret Agent" and this was the theme song. I remember singing this along with the TV every week.
the British show "Danger Man" was imported into the US as "Secret Agent"
This is the theme song to the old British TV show Danger Man (retitled Secret Agent in the United States (aka like a james bond type show), broadcast between 1960 and 1962, and again between 1964 and 1968. Only the USA TV show had Johnny Rivers singing the theme song. Filmed all in Black/White.
Ps you should listen to the song (Secret Agent Man/James Bond is back) done by actor (Bruce Willis) from his album (The Return of Bruno), love this version just as much, do the album version to hear all the special effects at the beginning of the song & you'll luv it too......❤😁😎🎶🎸🎤
Also try Bruce Willis's song (Respect Yourself) w/ The Pointer Sisters from the same album there is a official video for it.
Even actor Don Johnson sings try His official videos for (Heartbeat), (Tell It Like It Is) & (Star Tonight w/ Willie Nelson song written by Bob Seger). so does Eddie Murphy sing he's got lots of videos, even one with Snoop Dogg when Snoop Dogg was called Snoop Lion (sounds kind of Reggae like) and even one with the King of Pop Michael Jackson as well, called (whatzupwitu) Eddie Murphy has 3 singing albums. There's around 8 official videos of Eddie, you can find.
You got to watch all the James Bond films there is 26 movies to watch & react to on your other channel.
And on this channel you can react to all the James Bond themes there's a live performance or a official video for every single Bond theme
There is 24 Eon films
(Eon Productions Limited is a British film production company that primarily produces the James Bond film series)
There is 2 Non-Eon films
Witch are
1- Casino Royale 1967 starring David Niven, this is sort of a James Bond spoof type film spoofing other spy type films at the time.( yes there are two Casino Royale films the other was done in 2006 and considered an official Bond film)
2- Never Say Never Again 1983 starring Sean Connery trying to make a comeback in the bond series also starring actress Kim Basinger
These films are not considered official Bond films because they were done by other companies the first being done by Columbia pictures & the second one done by Warner Bros
@@richardb6260 got it thanks redid it... re-edited the info
This was a BBC show that came to the US. This song was only on the US version. The show starred Patrick McGoohan as a very clever and ethical agent. Later he was in a series called "The Prisoner" which seemed to be about the same character, but couldn't definitively be, since they didn't have the rights. Great song. OK show, that isn't really standing the test of time.
@@JayCross thanx for the info!
You two need to check this show out. Pat McGohann played the lead and went to star in sequel of sorts The Prisoner one of the best TV shows ever.
Is John Drake actually Number 6? 🤔
The song was used on a UK series imported to the US. It was Danger Man in the UK, and Secret Agent in the US. Patrick McGoohan was secret agent John Drake.
And there was a sort of spinoff called The Prisoner which had to be one of the most psychological series of all time. Only 17 episodes but I Loved it!
@@richdiddens4059 Yes, today to would have been called a mini-series. "Be seeing You" was a catch phrase of the show, and always thought they should have ended it with the song "I'll Be Seeing You." [From World War II]
Great show, although I remember The Prisoner better.
oh lord if they ever decide to react to a tv show, The Prisoner is gonna be an absolute trip for them.
@@richdiddens4059 czcams.com/video/ygLg-7G0Xp0/video.html
It also introduced the Yanks to the Lotus 7, a "club car".
He made Baton Rouge proud. My mom went to school with him at Baton Rouge High.
When we were married, my goofball of an ex-husband would sing "secret Asian man" when it came on the radio, and now I can't unhear it.
I did the same thing! LOL
The closed captioning on this video writes "secret Asian man" too.
I did that too 😂
@@vanfairbanks7389 - It seems a lot of us thought it was "secret Asian man", LOL. Saw him live at The Midnight special. Very talented.
Me too!
I love Johnny Rivers voice, he was good in the 60’s. 👍👏👏👏💃🕺🏾💃🕺🏾♥️♥️
Slow dancin' is my fav Johnny Rivers tune
Yes I used to watch Secret Agent Man and back in the 60’s and couldn’t wait to hear this song, thank you guys for childhood memories.
My favorite Johnny Rivers song is "Summer Rain." I hope you react to it soon. I think Amber, in particular, might like it.
This 👆🏻
Yes, that was a good one.
That's a wonderful song! I'd forgotten about it.
Great suggestion.
Still have the 45
Oh yes. It’s his best in my opinion
Love Johnny Rivers!
Johnny Rivers has great music
I used to sing this song all the time when very young. Love this song.
Next Johnny Rivers should be Summer Rain. Absolutely beautiful.
Early to mid 60's were prime Spy movies and tv shows. They all had theme songs like this. My favourite spy show was Get Smart, a comedy written by Mel Brooks
My grandmother had a chihuahua named Maxwell Smart.
Spies and detectives had some great theme music. Secret Agent Man, Get Smart, Peter Gunn, James Bond, The Return Of The Saint...
missed it by that much right chief
@@gregorywilcox5949 Would ya believe...
Great TV show theme! Summer Rain by Johnny Rivers, that's the one you need to hear next!
Johnny Rivers has long been a favorite of mine. Some other good ones from him, "Summer Rain", "Slow Dancing", "Mountain of Love", and "Seventh Son".
All of those suggestions are good ❤
My picks as well. ❤
Slow Dancing was one of the songs we considered for our Wedding. We went with I Like dancing.
"Poor Side of Town"
SLOW? How on earth did you get slow from this? 😂. That thing was rockin'...almost frenetic!!! Loved it and love you guys ❤
right, how strange.
Slow Dancin Swayin To The Music, my personal favorite Johnny Rivers song.
Johnny Rivers id an amazing talent. Wrote so many songs for himself and many others. Great guitar player and a smooth demeanor. So many cool songs.
Sway in' to the Music (Slow Dancing) is a Johnny Rivers must...
In the 60's Secret Agent's were everywhere, on TV in the movies and in real life. 📺 TV had The Avengers 1961, Get Smart 1964,Man from Uncle and I Spy 1965,Mission Impossible 1966 the year this song came out 😅 In the movies numerous James Bond movies, agent 007. 😂 cartoons Secret Squirrel, Rocky and Bullwinkle with Boris and Natasha, and MAD Magazines Spy Vs Spy 🕵️♂️ the 60's definitely had a Spy craze 😳 Peace✌️ and Love❤️ your 70 year old forever hippie😀 Gary😊
This was and is one of Johnny's top tunes,it is great
Possibly the “ coolest” tv theme song ever
Hearing this song was just awesome! Thanks for picking this Johnny Rivers gem.
This is a great Johnny Rivers song. Secret agent movies and TV shows were all the rage in the early to mid '60s. Yeah Jay, James Bond, The Man from UNCLE, I-Spy, Matt Helm movies (Dean Martin) and Harry Palmer movies (Michael Caine), Our Man Flint. and all the other ones that Mike Myers parodied in the Austin Powers movies. This song was huge. Most of us children of the '60s remember the chorus by heart and most of the verses.
My favorite J Rivers song! Love it!
Johnny should be in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame!!
This was the theme song for a television series I LOVED as a kid. Patrick McGoogan was the secret agent. The same guy who played that horrible king in Braveheart as an older man. I had a crush on him as a little girl.
Johnny Rivers is a true a Rock n Roll original.
Best song Johnny did was Summer Rain.
Still have the 45.
Have the album
I really wish they'd react to this beautiful song.
Secret Agent was the American name of the show that came from Britain called Danger Man. Patrick McGoohan played the main character, John Drake, and he was handsome and smooth. McGoohan was the highest-paid actor at the time in Britain because of this show and went on to create and act in one of the most bizarre and compelling shows ever called The Prisoner. Give it a watch! You’ll either love it and want to keep watching or not like it at all.
McGoohan was a fascinating individual. He was offered the role of James Bond twice and turned it down because he found the character too violent and immoral. He had two conditions for his character in Danger Man- no kissing, and he must use his brain before using a gun.
The Prisoner really messed with my head as a kid. It was the beginning of my love of brain twisting stories and mind f#@$ movies.
It holds up today. I'm surprised there hasn't been a reboot yet.
I Am Not a Number; I Am a Free Man
I too am in my 60’s and I LOVED Secret Agent Man and The Prisoner which was an absolutely addicting fantastic series. I still watch full episodes on you tube. He was a very talented actor. Patrick Mcgoohan also costarred in the movie Jamaica Inn as the abusive uncle. That movie was based on a Daphne Dumaurier novel starring Jane Seymour. Was very impressed at seeing another side of his acting.
@@leifcattso with you on the prisoner. It came on tv when I was in highschool and me and a bunch of us would talk about it all through lunch.
Who is number one.
Would love to see someone try it as a movie or Netflix series.
The concept of what happened to a agent after they quit is fascinating because they have too much information on everything.
Thank you guys for sharing. You brought back a lot of memories! I too like some of those “brain twisting” movies where nothing is like what it seems, lol.
'Summer Rain' next please. Cheers.
Mountain of Love my dad use to sing to me ! At 5 years old
I swear the guitar riff is the James Bond riff, but just different enough to be not the same. It's still amazing.
Yep. Sounds very 007ish.
I also think "Undun" by The Guess Who sounds like the James Bond theme in the "Too many mountains..." part.
Yep, the three notes in the riff and the final chord are directly from the James Bond theme that you hear at the very beginning of every movie
It most definitely is Monty Norman's Bond riff.
The guitar is played by the songwriter PF Sloan, writer of Eve of Destruction and many more, who also played the opening riff on California Dreaming.
Its used in Austin powers , or bowfinger ( eddie Murphy) but originally from a tv show it was the theme music ( secret agent) 60s
My favorite Johnny Rivers song is \
When I was young I would have sworn that he was saying "Secret Asian Man".
Me too.
It does sound like it
YES !!
At the end of the song, you can hear someone shout, "Do Batman, Johnny!" This song came out in 1966, the same year that the TV show "Batman" started out as a monstrous success. The show's theme song was also catchy, which explains the reference.
I've never heard that until tonight!
This was the decade of secret agent films and TV shows.
Never heard that!
Da-na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-nah, "BATMAN"!!
Love Johnny Rivers next up "Summer Rain"
This was the theme song of the series Secret Agent, starring Patrick McGoohan. My Mom loved the series. He was a great actor and his adventures led him to all kinds of places. The last movie I saw him in was Braveheart, he played Edward Longshanks.
Ten years ago today I suffered a major heart attack it was life changing but here I am listening to you guys three times a day.thanks guys 🥰
Just like me you are probably in better health now than 10 years ago. Sometimes those life changes are life saving. Live long and prosper. ✌️
I had a stroke about ten years ago, scary stuff.
I always hear this as "Secret Asian Man." 😄
Everyone does.
Me too!!
@@chibirenee14 czcams.com/video/NYD3QtyEGGM/video.html
Me, Too!!! LOLOLOL!!!
Me three
Movies, TV shows, and songs about secret agents and spies were the big thing during the 1960s at the height of the Cold War.
If you want slow Johnny Rivers, there's "Slow Dancin'" which came out about a decade after this classic.
Seventh Son is another great upbeat song of his
I've loved this song since I was a little girl.
Love your 60s music.
Me too, Johnny!👍🥰
Slow Dancin' is a must. Amber will love it!
Johnny Rivers was a GREAT artist and this might be his greatest song!
Really cool! Another great one was Mountain of Love .
Great choice!!! Always loved Johnny Rivers and this song is soooooooo cool!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
“Summer Rain” and “Muddy Water”
Yes yes yes 👏🏼🙌👏🏼👏🏼❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
He wrote this in the 60s after the first "James Bond " movie came out. The movies were so popular he did it just for fun.
Sloan and Barri wrote this for the TV show.
@@debjorgo Always wondered if it was written specifically for the TV show, or if it had been recorded before and they then licensed it for the show.
@@johnsilva9139 I always loved the song. It was years later when I heard it was the theme for a show. I read on wiki a while back that it was written for the American airing of the show, using American star Johnny Rivers.
This was first recorded in 1965 by a nondiscrept studio group called The Challengers @@johnsilva9139
Thanks for Johnny Rivers! I consistently enjoy your channel. Please do a reaction to THE SMITHEREENS!!! They are one of the most underrated rock bands this country has ever had, but once you hear them do "Top of the Pops" or "Behind the Wall of Sleep", you'll get it. This is a group more people need to hear. Stay safe & have fun.
I second the nomination. There's not bad song in their catalog, but my favorite is kind of an obscure one, Cut Flowers.
One of the first songs I ever learned to play on guitar😁😁😁😁
One of my FAV songs of the 60’s 🎼🎵🎶🎼🎵🎶
Loved it as a young teen. Every Johnny Rivers song makes me smile.
If you're going to review more Johnny Rivers, do "Summer Rain."
One of my all time favs!
The quintessential early 60's sound!
Probably a Fender Stratocaster
I was referring more to the manner of playing....the style of the music.
@@neptune9 Look up some CZcams videos of Zoe McCulloch, The Crickettes, and The Surfragettes. Ladies who rock the 60s style and sound.
Thank you…thank you very much! ❤😊👏🏼❤️
When I was a kid and this was on the radio, I always thought it was, "Secret Asian Man."
I've always liked this song.😊TY for your reactions.
This song was so much fun in its day.
✌️😁❤️🎶🎶🎶👍
Yes, TV show theme song! I watched it as a boy very young. Im very old now, and as a child i loved this song.
My teenage brother used to sing along with this song. He is 74 now.
Thanks Jay and Amber! Such a classic Johnny Rivers from his long storied career. Next perhaps you can take in his last top 10 hit: Swayin’ To The Music (Slow Dancin’) from 1977.
I’d also recommend his Baby I Need Your Lovin’ from 1966.
PS Johnny Rivers recorded this for the opening titles of the American broadcast of the British spy series Danger Man, which aired in the U.S. as Secret Agent from 1964 to 1966
PPS Jay you said this song was “slow.” Define slow please. For its time, it is a rocker.
Johnny Rivers is a business genius who owns his own publishing company
My favorite show as a kid.
EVERYBODY KNEW HOW TO PLAY THIS GUITAR🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Love This One!!!!
I had his 8 track, cruising in my 67chevy. Great memory. My eight track player died and burnt my tape.
Used to love watching the TV show with my dad. ❤
"A Mountain of Love" & "Summer Rain" are two of my favorite Johnny Rivers songs.
Jay: "kinda slow" while I'm remembering girls shakin their @sses off to it on the dance floof😂
This song contains the often misheard lyrics: "secret Asian man," according to the compilation "Excuse me while I kiss this guy," which itself is a mishearing of Hendrix ("kiss the sky").
oh man, I LOVE Johnny Rivers! His live albums are perfection. This is my fav of his
I was 10 years old when Secret Agent Man tv show came out. This song will forever be a part of my childhood. Johnny Rivers is great !
I absolutely love Johnny's rendition of "Memphis". Around the time this came out there were several Secret Agent TV Shows were on.
It absolutely is J. That was everything in those days. There was 007, the Man from UNCLE, Matt Helm, on the BBC was the Avengers, spy movies, TV shows, and music all directed toward secret agent stuff.
I used to watch the tv show Secret Agent Man in the 1960s when I was 10 yrs old... I loved the show...The theme song was killer... Great reaction guys...
Great Song.
Rivers is a forgotten GIANT
I recommend his song "Memphis Tennessee"
The Cowsills danced to this. Over and over. I bet they still would.
Love Johnny Rivers. Seventh Son is a great song. It rocks and blues.
Another great.❤ Thank you both.🙂
I WAS LUCKY TO BE IN L.A. WHEN JOHNNY PLAYED AT "THE WHISKEY AGO GO!!!!!!!!!
Great song. Great artist.
My sister and brother in law were friends with Johnny Rivers. They used to go to his club in Nashville called Whiskey A Go Go. Crazy they would drive all the way from West Monroe, Louisiana to Nashville just to listen to him play and dance. He would always take time to come sit and have a drink and chat a while. Also they would go where ever he might be playing in nearby towns. So I grew up listening to his music.
I have this song on my playlist for mowing the yard! 😂
😂
My first game was Pong connected it to antenna leads on the TV. This was not a James Bond theme song, but was basically about James Bond.
This is one of the best misheard lyrics - secret Asian man.
The first song I learned on my guitar in 5th grade!!
Johnny Rivers great musician.
More Johnny Rivers anytime! Great Choice, You Guys! :)
This was written as a tip of the hat to all of those secret agent movies and TV shows.
Thank you for the wonderful memories not only was this a great song but the theme song for one of myself and my brothers favorite TV shows …man the memories. Thank you for that.
