I always noticed that the beginning of this song starts out very similar to the song "Wild Weekend " by the 'Rockin' Rebels' from Buffalo New York..(circa 1962)and coincidently he mentions Buffalo in the song which makes me wonder if he was listening to that song shortly before he wrote this tune...I would think so...
at the guy who called me a fucktard..I wrote what I wrote out of going thru lists quickly..my statement should have said "I love CCR, & that I love his (Fogarty's) sound ...hold your tongue and remember..it takes a fucktard to know a fucktard..ok fucktard!
@MsDeeWilliams you love CCR and think this song is one of "his" best? um...CCR is not a single person nor is this song a CCR song. It was written and performed by the former lead singer of CCR. however this IS NOT a CCR song.....you Monumental fucktard.

I would LOVE to meet a Rock-n-Roll girl!!! - Preferably one that doeasn't smoke since I don't. Too many females out there listen to rap & hip hop!!! Ugh!!! I am in NY. Any rock-n-roll girls out there who are single?
@carpediemfriends - Interesting choice of words, "under-rated ". I am not criticizing you. Credence Clearwater Revival was one of the most prolific and popular bands of the late 1960's. I cut my musical teeth on this stuff. I feel sorry for the kids of today because ( I think ) modern music is just so much dross.
@ nerdflanders8710. Such a vile, poisonous, nasty, vomit inducing comment. Like clean up your dog s**t mixed with cat hairballs from the carpet kind of nasty!..And on a Fogerty vid nonetheless! Respect the Fogerty.. Respect it!!!
is that a singer who can play an instrument and write shit-hot songs?! What a true artist! My 14 yr old heard this today and is now is his room listening to my CCR cd. I love to educate!
it's amazing how it starts off like a bunch of schoolkids playing a shitty tune with a lame chord progression , then JF's voice kicks in and totally transforms it.
k i am 9 and this is me and my grandpas singer we can sing every one of there songs eny time i here one of there songs i think of my g pa we live in country so eneytime we go down the road to omg dont know what i would do with out john
@qaesyan Haha, he totally does, too! David Letterman hit the nail right on the head with this one, saying, "there needs to be more John Fogertys around these days."
@rspectcopyrightmyass we would have knowen earlier had that scene not been cut out of Star wars of Han solo Jamming with the bar band in the catina in Mos eisley.....but I guess Luke and Obi-wan got there after his gig was fisnished.
The correct name of this song is Rock and Roll Girls...check out the song list for the Centerfield album, for example. I think all big Fogerty fans know this song's name.
Steve Kreisman - better known as Steve Douglas was the saxophonist in the video, but something I can't quite figure out is if the video is just matched to the song or if there was actually another version of the song recorded when the video was made in 1985 because a lot of references say that Fogerty himself played all the instruments for the song and it was all dubbed together. Anyone know the answer?
@Pacersky04 from what I recall he played all of the instruments for ther album release of the song. as far as I know this vid is just a bunch of guys rocking out :)
