Does anybody know the name of the song playing on the Chase commerical wherein someone’s hand comes out of a computer to steal someone’s identity? It’s a kind of jazzy/spy instrumental that is probably really well-known, but I don’t know the name of it. And I really want it for a ring tone:D.

Thanks in advance!

Got a link to a youtube video of the commercial?

That’s a great idea I hadn’t thought of, **Homie** , and I just went and tried, but it’s not there. I also google’d “chase credit card commercial song” and none of the ones that came up are the ones I’m looking for (it’s not “Secret Agent Man”). I think they started airing it in 2008.

Let me know next time you see it and on what show it’s on. If it’s one of the shows I record on my DVR, I’ll watch it and see if I can help ya.

Yep, that’s it! (Google works so much better when you have a title and an artist!) Many thanks for your help on my behalf,\*\* Homie \*\*and **Dr. Rieux.**

I have a ‘Spy Tunes’ playlist on iTunes:

_Secret Agent Man_, Johnny Rivers  
_Peter Gunn_, Henry Mancini  
_Get Smart_, Billy Strange  
_James Bond Theme from Dr. No_, John Barry  
_I Spy_, Earl Hagen  
_Pink Panther Theme_, Henry Mancini  
_A Shot In The Dark_, Henry Mancini  
_The Man From U.N.C.L.E._, Paul Brooks  
_Mission: Impossible_, Lalo Schifrin  
_Casino Royale_, Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass (Not ‘spy-y’, but it is to a spy film. Sort of.)  
_James Bond Lives Down Our Street_, The Toy Dolls

I also put Henry Mancini’s _Baby Elephant Walk_ from _Hatari_ in that playlist. It’s not a spy tune, but it fits with the other Mancini music.

You should add the Theme from Mannix, also by Lala Shafrin.

And “Superspy” by Save Ferris.

A Spy playlist is so perfect for those days when you’re in a spy mood. If ever :-).
