Minutemen cover this one on "double nickels on the dime"...check it out..

[johnniebgoode]

I once wrote an essay about this song back in 8th grade...probably 1969? LOL!

[108deko]

3 people can fuck off!

[watutman]

Some vandal ripped down the Duck Kee Market sign in Oakland. Brilliant idiot, now tourists won't come from around the world to see that store.

[MrInukjuak]

King David with his harp must have played that tune in the field and the Apostle Thomas spoke the wisdom words to ccr in their dreams and out came this song! Incredible sond.

[rickydicky100]

a very underated song from one of Americas greatest performers and songwriters

[mrpepperkitty]

@rickydicky100 One of , lol, top this all!

[fogologo100]

America's band....

[longliverock94]

what is this song about

[TheOldTomCat]

So you all know, that a timberworkers shirt was made from real cotton, so get there the truth, that every Creedence Clearwater Revival song is real music

[mendes1970]

This is really music, not what we hear today!

Viva the true Rock, since 50ths with Elvis, Buddy Holly, Gene Vincent, and many others, and CCR made spetacular songs that emotions up today,

Congratulations for posting this rarity

Mendes/Brasil

[bart1056]

i can only say one thing...AWESOME

[labora4best]

WHO TAKES THE COIL OFF THE MINES?

WHO IS CUTTING STONES FOR NOTHING?

Don't look now, it ain't you!

[Quake52]

I'm with hynes. I've never known anyone that hates CCR. What kind of anger do they have stored up? haha...

[brightchance]

can't get tired of this song!

[danilonazareth2]

great song!!

[allivegp]

Top song of one of the world's greatest bands! My favorite one, along with "Green River", "Hey Tonight", "Proud Mary" and so many more.

[younghines]

There's no accounting for taste....throughout my life i have met people that love ccr and people that despise ccr....one mans trash is another mans treasure blah blah blah...to me their music rocks....they paint images in your mind....reminds me of the good ol days.....it reminds me of a world with dew still on it...... life is short...be happy make evrybody happy be a comedian drink a green River...

[cdjones19]

@younghines too true. they definitely polarize opinion. my favorite band for years, my brother absolutely hates them

[dwmson9]

Man, for someone who was "there" you're one angry being. Have Love & Peace in your heart. Don't be a poser or a yo-yo. Laugh & Be Happy! Gravy Wavy and vice versa. Be kind and help others. Circus Boy says "Hey" and thanks for the defense.

[lekezenman]

Which does not explain why, somepeople look down at me....want to eat every feeling ,every idea ,everything I write, say or don't! As if free will is something tobe STRANGLED!

I will allways FIGHT OFF ME that hatred feeling!

I have no choice!

[lekezenman]

Coming from a small town in Flanders ,we never were tought to look kdown on anybody! Instead we all knew our places and worked hard.

[Cainefan]

I think I remember Kris Kristofferson singing this song in some concert several years ago. Maybe Farm Aid or something. Didn't even realize it was a Creedence song.

[atrotroa]

What's so damn great about this song is that it gets your feet tapping from the first note, has a simple yet great melody and manages to get its message across in little more than 2 minutes. That's true genius. I bed no one can do such a song today, except John Fogerty himself.

[Nomanisrdy]

this song is ridiculously close to bad moon rising. even the solos are similar. oh well, i really don't give a damn. anything by CCR is great. :)

[BigStar303]

What may not be realized is that it took tremendous courage for Fogerty to write this song when he did. In hippie culture, it was pretty common to look down on the working man, who was seen as reactionary and behind the times. Maybe, but as John points out, they're the ones who did all the hard, unpleasant stuff while the children of privilege lived it up and spent their money on dope. I can say this, because I was one of those children. A truly great CCR song that deserves to be better-known.

[dwmson9]

I always thought the song was about a girl that had been taking advantage of a guy. She dumps him and realizes that all of his efforts for their relationship was worthless. This is his response that as far as he was concerned everything could go to hell. I think it took far more courage to sing "Hey,Hey We're The Monkees..." during the hippie era. Agreed that this song is bitchin, far out and groovy.

[BigStar303]

Assuming you're serious, that's certainly a...unique interpretation. Not sure how "Who took the coal from the mines" or "Who made the shoes that you wear" fits in, though. BTW, there was no "hippie era" when The Monkees first appeared (Sept. 1966). That was strictly a localized S.F. phenomenon at the time, unknown to the country at large. Top 40 radio still ruled...there wouldn't be an "underground" for another 9 months or so. Took no courage at all to appeal to teenyboppers, who ruled then.

[dwmson9]

Love Ins, "Hippie Riots" on Sunset Strip all going on in Los Angeles in the Summer of 1966. The Monkees were singing their opening tune far into 1967 and beyond. Still say it took courage while trying to score with hippie chicks. Didn't hurt 'em Mickey Dolenz even had a "love child".

[BigStar303]

@dwmson9 Like I said, the hippie phenomenon was strictly LOCALIZED in 1966 (I'll give you L.A. and call it "West Coast" instead, though L.A. and S.F. hippies were very different). Post-first season of their TV show, The Monkees embraced it too, and counted many "hippie" musicians among their friends -- all the while maintaining their popularity with the teeny-boppers. In any case -- my point re Fogerty's courage in writing this song in this era stands. If you were there, you would know this.

[dwmson9]

@BigStar303 I readily defer to your superior insight. I was born in 1996 and have never left Circleville, Utah or interacted wth any media developed by Satan. My life has always revolved around visions of the sixties (which is my source of all information of that era), and prophets digging {as directed by salamanders) for golden plates in upstate New York. My goal is to stay here in Circleville, marry as many women as possible as I prepare to be god of my own world. I hope your team wins.

[BigStar303]

@dwmson9 And I hope you will always imagine yourself to be as clever as you do right now.

[76Solo712]

It's fucking great!!!!!!!!!

[lekezenman]

Damn right!

and yes, nobody ever cares.

Better KNOW what yu are doing and do it RIGHT!

[nicolasmeza]

genial!!!!

[kingdomprinceful]

john fogerty explains the meaning behind the song/ccr concert 1970..states that not many of us are willing to do the dirty stuff in this world that he does not have the answer. the song is there to point it out and what ever you get fromit

[jrentona]

Great songs can be adapted for the times.

I think this song works great today; as we witness the aftermath of decades of outsourcing on a hollowed out and deteriorating US economy.

[airbagabe]

Anybody have insight on what this song's about? About God, perhaps?

[TallFastLoud]

Nope, I'd lean more towards a song celebrating the common man. Given that the majority of CCR songs do that, I'd say it seems pretty safe to assume. There's nothing to say it ISN'T about god/ a god. I just don't think it seems very fitting with the general CCR ideology.

[19sell89]

Legends Never Die
