  • @misslantana52 stu and doug teamed up and made a band called Creedence Clearwater revisited, check it out.

  • @misslantana52 John Fogerty fired them after his brother quite Credence. When John Fogerty was inducted into the Rock Hall of Fame he booted Cliff and Stu off the stage!!! Me thinks what an unforgiving, intolerant azz!

  • Johnnny!

  • Cool as Cool can be !!!!!!!!!

  • You totally rock John! Thanks for posting.

  • cudownie cdownie niech mlodzi sie ucza rock and rolla to jest muzyka

  • why dosent John team up with the rest of his old band. I know tom is dead but why not get together?

  • @MrBuckkiller55 Uh, perhaps because they hate each other (ya think?)

  • Strong Rockabilly song!!

  • he is one greats`

  • listening to Buck Owens!

  • He Still SOunds Amazing

  • is it wrong for me to automatically think of " the dude " whenever this song comes on ?!?!?

  • @soullimbo yes. you should think of ccr when you hear this song.

  • The mans a walking fanny magnet!!!

    Go on John.....

  • HOLA--  DESDE PERU,,, cuando biene al peru john.

  • God damn, he's 60 years old here and he has far more energy than i do at 17. This man is a badass!

  • @geterdonein01 I saw him live in concert two years after this video was made, and he rocked like a maniac for two hours with only a brief rest. The front rows in front of the stage had the usual gorgeous young chicks dancing away, but near the end of the concert they were exhausted and had to sit down!

    John kept on rockin'.

  • LOL The bassist is like Stu Cook in appearence Fogerty miss him

  • do do do do.......whohoo!

  • i though ccr did this song is he lead singer

  • @epicizlil CCR did this song, yes! But CCR broke up in 1972 (rythm guitarist Tom Fogerty left the band in 1971). John Fogerty have a sucessful solo career nowadays. Drummer Doug "Cosmo" Clifford and bassist Stu Cook are playing in the band: Creedence Clearwater Revisited (1995 - present).

  • this song is so true

  • terribly goooooooooooooooood

  • I think such music is "country rock"..something very good creative. Well..John Fogerty also is a great singer of country music..The guy is simply a genius"

  • Comment removed

  • This is one of the coolest songs ever written.i think everybody loves this tune!

  • Does anyone know the TABS for THIS version?! It's not the same version like on cd. especially the intro riff and the solo!

    could anybody help??

  • @florian287 Try songsterr com :-)

  • :52... he says tambourines and elephants.. and another time he says Tangerines and Elvis... LOL I've noticed in the later versions of some of these songs he sings what people "think" they have heard..... lol

  • @amberstarfire I heard the same thing. I had to listen to it a few times. I thought I was losing my earing.

  • :52... he says tambourines and elephants.. LOL I've noticed in the later versions of some of these songs he sings what people "think" they have heard..... lol

  • i have that same guitar a john does except mine is white and black.......peavy generation exp!!!

  • go on the fogerty fucking legend

  • @cowboy0212

    Fogerty can fingerpick better than 99% of all the people that call themselves Guitarplayers.

  • @Theseifiman Haha ! okey! Let's say so! you don't know music at all if you consider Fogerty a great guitarplayer! you know that people are laughing at you?

  • @cowboy0212

    Well I haven't seen any videos of you playing guitar or any other instrument.

    Being a good guitarplayer is not only about speed, it's also about feeling and timing and Fogerty definitly has that.

    And for your comment on my lack of music knowledge.

    I'm a classicaly trained guitarist and think I know more about music than many other smartasses like you ;-)

  • @Theseifiman I haven't said anything about speed. I just don't think that Fogerty have anything that is special! Listen to the solo god damnit! You - as a classicaly trained guitarist can't be serious if you think John Fogerty is a good guitarplayer...what is it that's so good? And I don't understand how my guitarplaying has to do with anything? Albert LEE is a good guitarplayer.

  • @Theseifiman No

  • @cowboy0212 John Folgerty cant play guitar?Your daddys sperm was awfully weak limpbrain!

  • @Mydickitches1 C'mon! you have to agree! Fogerty ain't a guitarplayer! he's a singer and songwriter! if you think that he's a great guitarplayer so be it! but you're wrong! Listen to him playing solos! Dont you tell me that he's good!

  • @cowboy0212 Lets see you think a legend who has always played guitar and sung should now just walk around stage with just a microphone.You want to talk about people laughing and not in a good way.At your pure stupidity.What do you you want him to play Eruption?

  • @enwll3427 No, I only say that Fogerty ain't a good guitarplayer! But he is a good singer and songwriter! You think he can play good? :) haha listen to him ffs..

  • @cowboy0212 That's just Your opinion.

  • @jokerit911 So you think he's a great guitarplayer? :]

  • @cowboy0212 yes. or at least he is good guitarplayer

  • holy cow he has a lot of energy!!!

  • 4 guitars in the show !

  • The Dude burned his nuts to this song.

  • Nothing like a John Fogerty song!!

  • Love this music.

  • Fucking melody! But I love record of CCR more than this show, because solo guitar of original ver is unforgotten.

    John is one of greatest men!

  • For my friend.

  • his voice hasn't changed in 30 years.

  • the best concert i ever saw hard rock in florida april 22nd 2010

  • Super! Super!

  • espetacular!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Such greatness! Wow this is perfect!

  • This man has imagination, thats it!!! he has the geneous to write as he feels, he sings the way he feels, so there fore its JF in the real sense!  He desnt need drugs or booze to get this happening! Long live the King of music ! Australia

  • wait i take that back im pretty sure ccr was straight edge

  • is this song about dropping acid?

  • Mr.Nancy3: ¡Que Genio! .Su voz y sus canciones ,me hacen retroceder a mi niñez ,cuando tenia 12 años.Y no olvidarme que en cada cumpleaño o casamiento de mi familia .Esperaba me invitara algun amiguito o primo a bailar con los discos de vinilo de los Credence.¡Que recuerdos! Y si a eso le agregamos que John Fogerty es como *Gardel**cada vez canta mejor* Fogerty :El Rio de la Plata te espera con los brazos abiertos .

  • now hold up....is this the same john fogerty from 1969 on youtube? cuz I don't think it is. he done got hotter still............oh my goodness.... I always like this song cuz it's about IL where I was born but I've lived in Kentucky since I was a child.... i really don't think it's possible this man is the same man from way back then. whats up with the eagles comments? huh>?

  • It's a quote from the movie "The big Lebowski" , it's great, watch it :p (the eagles thing)

  • @conniebky dam i thought this song was about l.s.d not some state in the u.s do you have giants doing cart wheels and statuse wareing high heels and happy creatures dancing on the lawn in IL if you do i might move there! :) (sorry i dont mean to sound like a dick! its just i thought this song was about drugs)

  • LOL! I always thought it was strange that they made a song like this, cuz they weren't a "drug" band.....maybe he was just in the mood for weird rhymes when he wrote it. P.S. You're not bein a dick

  • @eddiedraw This song was inspired by a Dr Seuss book and was written for his baby son at the time. Read the wiki article.

  • "I had a rough night, and I hate the fucking Eagles, man."

  • shut the FUCK up donny

    lol

  • What's wrong with Walter, Dude?

  • Comment removed

  • maybe because no one can understand what ur typing

  • I understood how you felt. I think this is a very nice post.

  • john fogerty is still rocking after all these years !!

  • what kind of guitar is that again ? telocaster ?

  • yep

  • @bnicolle91 yes he is playing a Fender Telecaster.

  • Fogerty is great, but I still wish he could reconcile with Doug and Stu. It's a sad story.

  • @CosmicTraveler I agree. He should reconcile with them, and do one huge world tour with the original CCR.

  • @acfaiden can someone tell me the story about them? I understand that the band wanted more praise than they deserved. John was CCR, the band wanted to do an album so John let them. It went no where, and as the band split and broke up the band wouildn't let John sing the songs he wrote unless it was done by CCR the went to court and John couldn't sing the songs he wrote which sucked... now 15 years latter back to court and now he can sing the songs that only he can sing. go John Fogerty

  • @happy04346 I have the 6 cd box set, The story is all in there. Every time one of them wanted to sing lead on a song or use a song tey wrote John would say "Why mess with success?" and that was that. Tom left to pursue a solo career ( he was the original vocalist). He later died from teburculosis. The band later split up. When they were inducted in the HOF in '93, they went on stage seperately.

  • @flatulatingmarmoset Actually, tom died of aids. Sad story.

  • @CosmicTraveler maybe until they die....:S

  • @CosmicTraveler get over it hes alone and better!

  • @gavins15 Got that right ! John wrote all the songs, he's sings all the songs !! what more do you want ??

  • @CosmicTraveler Wish Tom was still live too. :(

  • @CosmicTraveler Tom too.

  • @Thelonesniper101 Tom Fogerty died a while ago, shame really

  • bass player gary oldman

  • I love this song!! It`s soooooooo great!!!!

    Thanks a lot for sharing!!!

  • John and CCR with him is still alive!

    I'm 15 an i love good old music: Scorpions, Led Zeppelin , Donovan, joan baez and CCR!!!

    and a few more.

    It would be one of my dreams to se him live on stage

    Please come to GERMANY!!!

  • Is that Stu Cook playing bass?

  • @faintofhearts86 No actuallt that looks alot like he used to but he looks very different now he has short gray hair and no mustache and beard but @ 1st i thought the same thing LOL XD

  • Comment removed

  • in my opinion his voice is better than before. A little bit higher, a little bit scratchy. i don't know why, but i think with john it is the same thing like the other, real, rock stars, several glasses whisky to much. but, better ore not better voice, john fogerty is john fogerty and ccr is ccr. people, and me also, love this music for the eternity, and nothing else matters! Sorry for my bad english, but i'm a german guy!

  • well yeah you might be right

  • I Quite Agree With You, John Fogerty Is Far Better Than He Used To Be, If You Listen To Early Live Recordings He Does Not Have The Sheer Kick Ass Power He Has Today. I Think mixlllllll Must Have A Hearing Problem If They Think His Voice Isn't As Good. I Went To See Him In 2007 And I Was Blown Away By How Good He Was

  • i also went to see him in 2000 in leipzig/saxonia together with tina turner on her 2047-tour. unfortunality he only was the supporting act and in this case he not get the same attention by the about 20.000 spectators. But, however, he was great and also tina was great!

  • Now That Sounds Like ONE SUPER SHOW! 2 SUPERSTARS TOGETHER! In One Day, I Love Them Both And You Are Very Lucky To Get A Double Treat Like That

  • This song OWNS!

  • its fuckin great song, i love this old music .

  • @ways1337 this music will never old : ) W John, W CCR!!

  • I'm going to get thumbs down from different people for this, but this is my opinion.

    I think John's a great singer, performer, etc. But the CCR sound that was on these songs before are not there anymore. I don't know if its because he has abandoned that trademark sound (probably not, since he still records swamp rock music), or what. But the original CCR sound is with Clifford and Cook's group Creedence Clearwater Revisited. They hold true to the sound that Fogerty lacks in these live shows.

  • True, but he's in his 60's now. I saw him not long ago and was completely amazed and blown away. He did it all; wrote the songs, lead singer and lead guitar. He was Creedence!

  • I think I agree, the soul of Creedence is with him not with the revisited band. But maybe they can get together again!

  • Not likely

  • Great John Fogerty 10 stars xxxxxxxxx

  • More like 60's

  • lol how old is he? like freakin what... he looks like he's late 40's maybe early 50's

  • 64 lol

  • John Fogerty is a great musicians gave birth in America

  • this was a time when the artist enjoyed the music and not the money!!!!!!!!!!! look at the smiles .they were having fun pickin and singing!!!! ccr rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • I love his music (always have) but I really don't give a shit for his liberal views! But he has a right to whatever views he chooses. I served in the USMC to guarantee him those rights!

  • No man. John Fogerty is creedence clearwater revival and no more.

  • Creedence Clearwater Revisited suck.

    John is a living legend

  • His voice is still in tact after all these years

  • he didn't try to do something he couldn't , natural talent.

  • Love that Tele!

  • Living legend !

  • Awesome

  • watch your mouth around a rock legend.

  • Not really a redneck I guess. He's pretty liberal.

  • watch your stereotypes. liberals are blind to world history, but rednecks don't subscribe to one ideology.

  • In today's political arena, "redneck", when used in a negative way, is usually referring to rural, Christian, gun owning, Conservatives. I wasn't applying any stereotype.  I am a redneck myself.

  • If a redneck is a rural, Christian, gun-owning conservative..........then just call me "Captain Redneck"!

  • 1-This is in the top 10 songs ever written, at least in my book.

    2-I feel like i'm the only redneck i know who isnt conservative.

    i do love guns and flannel shirts though. and was raised on a farm.

  • I'm proud redneck even if I'm a

    1- French Canadian

    2- Progressive

    3- and have a master degree

    Life is fishing, flannel shirts, beer shotgun, old Tennessee whiskey, firecamp and old cars. I now live in the city. But I'm born a countryboy, I'll die a countryboy.

  • your not a redneck then pussy

  • you fucking shit what was the point of commenting when oyu will get hate replys?

  • it is even more degrading towards you saying that not only because it has o effect on us or John Fogerty but because u call yourself a lday and u talk like u are spitting shit and it it "redneck" not "red neck" ....if you wish to talk linguistics that is.... (@blueslady77)

  • Héhéi Defenitely one of the best funny AFTERWEEK-tunes to relax on!

    Forever fan wit hno reason to walk away!

    Still fresh and positive music!

  • The Fogerty concert as a blast. We four gals had the best time and a sleepover at the Holiday Inn.

    Pictures were not allowed. I got out my camera and a very polite young usher said "Enjoy the show ma'm but his people have stipulated no photos."

    I can understand that, sort of.
