2003.02.14: Secret what?

I was listening to the radio and "Secret Agent Man" came on. If you listen carefully, you will notice that words that are actually being sung are "Secret Asian Man". Yup. Apparently, nobody realizes that this guy is Asian.

A couple of years ago, some friends and I went to see a concert performance of "Eddie From Ohio", a country/pop/folk group that is crystal-sharp. But, the group that opened for them was no slouch, either. "Da Vinci's Notebook" actually did do an "a capella" rendition of "Secret Agent Man", substituting with "Asian". The lead singer, coincidentally, was and still is Asian.

They also did an outrageous, barber-shop-quartet-styled song that oh-so-innocently sings praises about the male sex organ. I won't get into the performance, but it was more funny than obscene.
