1. I don't know if it will have any great effect on people's behavior

but that was really well done.

4. Honestly?

i have mixed feelings about the video.

Excellent production. The editing and audio quality is top-notch. The story board works well, too.

I'm 50 years old. I know and love the song "Secret Agent Man". Being a musician/composer/performer as i am, any lyrical re-write is lame, though this is an outstanding effort.

My suggestions? Re-mix the soundtrack with the same bass/drum rhythm section. Drop the guitar hook from "Secret Agent Man" and re-record the vocals with a new melody that fits the lyrics- which are good!

I know it's way too late for post-production criticism like this, but this is my two cents. Next time- take a lyrical re-write and change it enough that it becomes a NEW SONG.

oh- don't forget to credit Johnny Rivers for the music in the video.

edited to show a GREAT live version of a classic performer- Johnny Rivers!
(look at the joy on his face when the horn section comes in- pure bliss!)
