1970's. No electricity. No telephone line. No tv. Only with radio (with 4 battery in central Java island). 😢 Long live John Fogerty, Stu Cook and Doug Clifford. Keep rockin'. Bless ya all.
18, here. Grew up listening to CCR thanks to dad and granddad. Granddad is a Vietnam vet who loves this band, and dad is... well dad loves CCR just the same. Glad I grew up listening to this incredible band. Rock on!
Your devotion CCR is clearly Generalional! Purest Southern Rock One can find. Your Family gave you musical basis to grow upon. So nice to have your true life history related to this song! Than you!
@@Rajemluvalier en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Heard_It_Through_the_Grapevine "The first known recording is with the Miracles on August 6, 1966" just checked Wikipedia, we both were wrong. BUT. Marvin Gaye did it in 1968. This guy did it in 1970.
After the 70’s, did it feel like the 70’s were over? I think often of what it would be like growing up in my parents time and how the music surrounding me would affect the experience over what little experience I experienced now in 2024. I woke up thinking of this song today because I watched a Vietnam movie the other day and only thought about how even this song must’ve set such a vibe - locally and internationally. As someone half your age I feel like the 2010’s blended into the 2020’s mainly because there’s no soul in our music or society anymore. This is a question I know I could easily ask my parents, but I think I would get more insight from a stranger’s point of view.
@@8liontv after the 70s, most of us were raising kids and listening to Sesame Street. But occasionally going out. In my experience the 80s blended into the 90s. Then our kids left the nest ( if we were lucky ) 2000s meant nothing to me musically.
Good Morning! I love this music. I love the way the older brothers smile as his little baby brother is singing about a girl who broke his heart. Marlene Toledo Grayson
Good Afternoon! I found out his older brother accidentally caught the AIDS virus. In Phoenix Arizona. He doing some of surgery. The Hospital clinic staff where he was getting the surgery given him blood donation that had the AID virus in it. He died of AIDS virus. Due to a blood transfusion. Thank you! If his brother stay around his music would have been excellent like the it is now. John
John Forunty still a very good guitarist. But I bet he miss his old brother. You enjoyed the rest of day. May Our Heavenly Father and Jesus bless you and protect you. Marlene Toledo Grayson
67 yrs old and yes, this music sends me back, to that young age of care free living, partying with people who are gone, and those of us who are old. Life is awesome. Thank God for everything and everyone in my life.
Not today sadly i will probably never have that feeling of partying with random peapole i am 15 today and if this corona shit is taking longer than 3 years my childhood is unfortunately over i mean how hard can you suck as a politician i am from Germany Btw such a shitfest those politicians
@@yummypopsicle8046 look up, don’t blame others, make the best of whatever comes and you will have great memories. Trust me life goes so fast, before you know what fun you have today will become the good old days. Keep your head and heart up. 😀
@@mikec4308 Worst time to be a teenager ?? Ever heard of Anne Frank ?? (Yes, I'm from Holland). So many countries in today's world where there's war, famine and other misery..... misery is of all times, and so is pulling yourself together and making the most of it. Give it a try and surprise yourself !
Ребят, я вроде бы не такой старый, 34года, у меня вопрос, почему раньше была такая классная музыка, а сейчас полный отстой 90% музыки, а как они поют вживую я просто восхищаюсь, просто вау, низкий поклон музыкантам. Viva la CCR!
Hey 34 is young but you’re old enough to appreciate classic rock. It was a great time to grow up and hopefully you will keep it alive, maybe start your own band or DJ. John Fogerty is a legend in his song writing, singing and guitar. CCR is will survive! ☮️❤️👍🍻
Мне кажется, что тогда было золотое время, просто шикарная музыка, хотелось бы как в книге Стивена Кинга - 11.22.63, попасть в этот промежуток времени и остаться там, книга кстати тоже очень великолепна. Мира вам, и добра.
2024 y esta canción sigue siendo uno de los mejores hits de la historia. Tengo 82 años y cada vez que la escucha es como si volviera a mis años de juventud. Sin duda Creedence es y será una de las MEJORES BANDAS
Check out John Fogerty's work after he left CCR. He was the writer and he was sued so he couldn't perform the materaial he wrote..... I think he was eventually able to do his own stuff later....
@@mariahewitt1841 Bad in fighting. Problems with management. John's brother Tom wasn't on John's side so that became a inrepairable relationship. Tom died of AIDS related illness. Tragic as I adored this band since the 60's. Australia
2:03 just shows the range of John's vocals and how brilliant he was of a singer, and the rest of the band are all in harmony too, one of the greatest people's to grace this planet
Yep. One of the best. Still remember riding down the road with my dad and listening on the 8 track. Wonderful times. I am 66 now and my father has been gone for 4 years now.
I'm 31 and creedence was the first concert I ever went to when I was 6 years old with my dad. Keep up the fantastic taste in music kiddo, and then spread it on along down your
@@EMANisAMECHANIC little do you know, he got so absolutely obliterated and drunk that I was too scared to get in the car with him when the show ended. At 6 years old, I had to be brave enough to go to a security officer on my own and tell them my dad's too drunk and I don't want to drive with him. He was arrested and a neighbor drove over an hour at Midnight to pick me up. That same man was a crackhead and an alcoholic and in and out of my life more times than I can count and a lot of those times were fucked up. The thing is, the fucked up things shape who you are and you have to be resilient and take the good things from them. Don't let the negative shit turn you into a negative person. You have to learn to break the cycle. And guess what? One day I forgave that man while tripping balls and hearing Wild Horses from the Rolling Stones live and I sobbed like no other. Point is, soak up all that music you can and fuckin FEEL THAT SHIT and it will help heal you.
Perfection exists and it's called Creedence Clearwater Revival. I thank my father for introducing me to this fantastic band, which I always hear from here in Brazil.
Фотографию Криденс,хранил в рундуке на флоте 1982-85.Но старпом при проверке однажды нашел ее и разорвал.После этого у нас с ним началась война.Но братва была на моей стороне.Да уж были были времена ! Но память не сотрешь.Эта группа по жизни со мной,а мне уже 61.
Some day the current year is 2024. This song is timeless. People decades in the future will be listening to this song in 1970. A concept as paltry as time means nothing next to something so foundational as this song.
It's not often someone can cover a masterpiece and create a second masterpiece. Love both this and Gaye's version, it's hard for me to pick which I like more
There is a sign for them in the dead earth: We give it life, producing grain from it for them to eat. And We have placed in it gardens of palm trees and grapevines, and caused springs to gush forth in it, so that they may eat from its fruit, which they had no hand in making. Will they not then give thanks? (TQS. 36 : 33-35)
you have some seriously cool folks and you are obviously pretty awesome yourself if you get into it too! I was raised by hippy parents who I thank for getting me into ledzep :)
I'm the same age and my parents are older but I LOVE 50s-late-80s music. Music started to die around the late 90s and all this rap and fake country where pop stars try to sing country, but they could take some tips from Marty Robbins and Johnny Cash but anyway love the music!
Shame that CCR couldn't have lasted some years longer. The amount of quality music they put out in such a short time is nothing short of amazing. John Fogerty...a rare musical talent/genius.
@@lucalone Yes, always gotta respect the creative force behind a timeless classic, in this case the great Marvin Gaye.... but this version is def special to me. This version is def more up tempo, it just makes ya feel good.
Pity the band especially Fogerty was screwed by the record company. He didn't realize he signed away his song writers royalties and ownership to his music
This is the greatest song ever made. There is something special about the base. And then John ... well John just has the best voice this world has ever heard. This band is unique and no other band or artist can be compared to them.
I'm pretty sure that being yourself, if yourself were a minority such as gay or black, was pretty much more considered a crime when this song was recorded than today.
It's amazing how many great nuances he brings to his voice. Rich and varied, effortless and timeless. He started missing that quality as he became older.
I tend to agree with you there. Sadly. I think it was from a broken heart in my opinion but he remains one of my favorite and most unique voices and talents this world ever saw to me. He's insanely gifted.
Comparto Denis. Denis es un genio. El resto va detrás. John es autor cantante y un músico espectacular... m fascinan sus temas. Además tiene una hermosa familia. Supo renacer se sus cenizas. Tuvo muchos problemas. Y aún es egocéntrico. Xo vive superándose es un gran tipo. Y muy envidiado... lo amoooo❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💫💫
