I agree with others that the 11 minute version takes you to another level of listening pleasure. This version is but a snack compared to the extended version.
Definitely, I agree it's the best version. Hardly anyone reacts to Up around the Bend, and Traveling Band, I'm baffled. John may be touring again soon. Definitely my favorite band of all time
I would not be watching unless she was there.. Her man keeps stepping over her reactions but she has more emotions in her smile than he in his whole being..sorry
They experience different things from the songs. Amber is about feelings and emotions, as expected, she's a mother. He is about the other aspects of the music, and that's right too. They balance each other.
The full album version is 11 wonderful minutes long and a total groove and that guitar solo just goes on and on in a perfect groove from beginning to end. I Put A Spell on You and Suzi Q next
There is a concert video from, I think, the late 1990s of CCR. This song was so well done and they had fun on stage doing it! All those guitars lined up at the front of the stage playing together--it was a really impressive concert. Had a recording of it at one time and played this song often. So impressed by the show they put on.
MAN! You did yourselves a real disservice by not doing the eleven minute version! I'm game for a re-do, as I'm sure many others from that era will agree...!
This was originally performed by Marvin Gaye in 1966 and was covered by Gladys Knight and the Pips in '67 along with a whole bunch of other artists including The Temptations and Ella Fitzgerald. It's a classic.
Actually Gladys knight did it first in 67 and Marvin’s version was in 68, and in my opinion Gladys version is the better of the two, but yea the 11 minute version by car is Fantablous
Marvin Gaye did the original version. It’s amazing! Other CCR “Bad Moon Rising”, Have you ever seen the rain”, “The Midnight Special”, “Up around the bend”.
Cheryle Luchini, actually Gladys Knight and the Pips put this out about 6 months before the Marvin Gaye version. We were just back from Germany (army brat) December 1967 and heard it on the radio.😎😎😎😎
Before Marvin Gaye's rendition both The Miracles and Gladys Knight & The Pips released singles of this song which was written in '66 by Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong.
The original was Gladys Knight and the Pips... then Marvin Gay... then Creedence Clearwater Revival.... I literally had all three 45rpm records... just a very good song! react to all three...
Gaye was also not the first, nor CCR the last! From Wiki, the full breakdown: ""I Heard It Through the Grapevine" is a song written by Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong for Motown Records in 1966. The first recording of the song to be released was produced by Whitfield for Gladys Knight & the Pips and released as a single in September 1967. It went to number one on the Billboard R&B Singles chart and number two on the Billboard Pop Singles chart and shortly became the biggest selling Motown single to date. The Miracles were the first to record the song in 1966,[1] but their version wasn't released until August 1968 when it was included on their album Special Occasion. The Marvin Gaye version was the second to be recorded, in the beginning of 1967, but the third to be released. It was placed on his 1968 album In the Groove, a year and a half later, where it gained the attention of radio disc jockeys, and Motown founder Berry Gordy finally agreed to its release as a single in October 1968, when it went to the top of the Billboard Pop Singles chart for seven weeks from December 1968 to January 1969 and overtook the Gladys Knight & the Pips' version of being the biggest hit single on the Motown label (Tamla). The Gaye recording has since become an acclaimed soul classic. In 1998 the song was inducted to the Grammy Hall of Fame for "historical, artistic and significant" value. In 2004, it was placed 81 on the Rolling Stone list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. And on the commemorative fortieth anniversary of the Billboard Hot 100 issue of Billboard magazine in June 2008, Marvin Gaye's "Grapevine" was ranked sixty-fifth. In 2018, the Gladys Knight & the Pips version was also inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.[2] In addition to being released several times by Motown artists, the song has been recorded by a range of musicians including Creedence Clearwater Revival, who made an eleven-minute interpretation for their 1970 album, Cosmo's Factory."
The eleven minute version has a longer guitar solo to really sink your teeth into. Also, check out their cover of "I Put A Spell On You"; you will love it!
It's so wild. Most of the songs you react to I've heard a thousand times but your enthusiastic and appreciative reactions make me love the songs even more. All I know is that the new baby Amber is carrying is gonna be a lover of great music! 💯❤️
@@PrittyPeas oops! You are right. It was another reaction couple I just watched an hour or so ago and got them mixed up. Please excuse an old man's scrambled brain.
When others sing this song, it's "I heard it through the grapevine". When CCR sings it, it's "I hoid it through the grapevine". Gives it a bit more flavor.
CCR is quite possibly the most underrated band of all time. They are timeless and transcendent. One of the greatest catalogs of any band in rock n roll history.
Agreed they are much better than the eagles. But dont get half the respect or standing in music history. Could be to do with timing. It's like comparing the Original Fleetwood Mac with Peter Green. To the polished over commercial Fleetwood mac of the mid 70s. You cant. Peter Greens Mac was far deeper and grittier.
This is not the full version of CCR’s cover, they basically have a great big jamming session throughout. I love CCR and I love the sound of this version
CCR was our pre-Friday night out music before heading out for a night of dancing…always got us going! And where we lived we were lucky to have a fantastic CCR cover band who showed up now and then…so good!
I was lucky enough to have a brother 7 years older than me and every time i hear CCR i think of him blasting his stereo listening to all this amazing music! Although im 61 now, i am grateful to have grown up in the 60s, 70s & 80s. Best music EVER!✌❤
I also have a seven-years-older brother! I started out in 1955, so a few years later, I'm hearing Little Richard, Chuck Berry, The Diamonds, The Chiffons... all these early rock(ish) acts. Skip ahead a couple years and in 1962 and I'm hearing Bob Dylan's first album (and every Dylan album after!) I got to see the Beatles on Ed Sullivan's show. A few years later, my dear, seven-years-older brother took ne and my one-year-older sister to the Yale Bowl to see Janis Joplin playing with the Kozmic Blues Band. I was 12 yrs old and I got to see Janis Joplin! OMYFG! Snooky Flowers on saxophone...Mind blowing!
My older brother (1 year older) won a TV show contest and the prize was every Elton John album and every CCR album (at that time). He enjoyed the Elton John albums more, and I became hooked on CCR. Magical times.
CCR was my favorite band when I was in high school during the early 1970s and this was by far my favorite on their album. I wore out the tape my first husband has when we were dating in the 70s. They will always be one of my favorite bands.
Certainly check out all the recommended CCR songs, but you may also like lead singer John Fogerty’s solo work: “The Old Man Down the Road” “Centerfield”
Centerfield…..wow, I had forgotten all about the song! Definitely one of Fogerty’s very best! Now I’ve got to dig that one up from my Fogerty/CCR collection and give it a listen.
"Have you Ever Seen the Rain" , and "Looking Out My Back-door" are a couple classics of theirs. For a couple lesser known gems, give "Midnight Special" or "Someday Never Comes" a listen.
You're the best reaction chan on youtube right now IMO. I've prob watched 50+ of your videos and each is good stuff. Genuine, honest, and you probably don't realize that you both have a high musical intelligence and emotional sensitivity. People try to fake that sort of thing (which isn't possible to a keen eye), but you back it up with often quick understanding of sometimes not easily digested lyrics and/or musical themes, etc. I usually watch reactions just to relive those moments, and you guys hit the mark very frequently. Keep it up! Whatever is in store down the line, just stay true to who you guys are; the audience can sense when people start 'faking it'. I've seen channels sell out and practically start pretending they've never heard Happy Birthday before lol. As a person somewhat obsessed with music, Fogerty often enters my mind as the greatest voice in rock music history. Cornell, Tyler, and a few others also stand out. If you love CCR and Fogerty's voice, I echo the suggestions to listen to 'I Put a Spell on You', but you should also check out 'Long as I Can See the Light'. Another personal favorite that is somewhat unknown but absolutely great is 'Hideaway'. It's kinda their gem that most people have no idea about; Fleetwood Mac - Silver Springs is another song that falls into this category. Beach Boys - Warmth of the Sun another. In each case, I'd recommend listening to these artists' bigger hits first to get full appreciation though.
My momma was a huge fan of Motown AND CCR. I absolutely love the original, by Marvin Gaye, but I also absolutely love this. It does the original no disservice and while I miss the Motown backup vocals, the guitar work and drums on this certainly makes up for that. They’re both amazing, and for different reasons.
Everything CCR does is great. I love, love his voice. , Cow bells...yes...other tunes are Down on the Corner, Joy to the World ( was my dads favorite song).
Definitely! Along with I put a Spell on You, Up around the Bend and Sweet Hitchhiker. Hmm, and more😀. U have good musical taste. My favorite band of all time
Oh guys luv your reaction but you really gotta hear the long version of this, so much more to get into, and it's fantastic creative jamming, CCR bliss. Also as correctly suggested below the live version of 'I put a spell on you' is an absolute fire cracker with spell binding vocals (scuse the pun), gotta do that one too..
Original "'Marvin Gaye" essential reaction!!!! Would even appreciate CCR version more of how they took such an already beautifully soulful track and made it their own. Both versions A+.
Great to see a young couple enjoying the wonderful classics. There is good music now but way back when every other song on the radio was a favorite! Such a variety too, loved it then and surely appreciate more today!
TOTO Hold the line from 1978 , Would be a huge banger That was VERY POPULAR In 1978 When it was Released You 2 will get a LOT of viewers , I PROMISE ,,, Take care
@@giarogers Hope you don't mind me sharing, but I've had some traumatic brain injury. Hearing these songs is bringing back volumes of memories. Not all good, but they're mine. Have a blessed day.
One of those great, timeless standards that "lend themselves" to different interpretations. Gladys Knight, Marvin Gaye --those are the two older great performances.
Such a great song. Gladys Knight and the Pips recorded it first, then Marvin Gaye released it as well. It's a great song, and all versions are great but no one sounds like John Fogerty. CCR always rock!
Up Around the Bend, Who'll Stop the Rain, Green River, The Midnight Special, Proud Mary, Down On the Corner, Travelin Band, Lodi, Run Through the Jungle, All CCR hits
The singer John Fogerty Was Sued for Ripping Off John Fogerty yeah not a typo. John Fogerty was accused of plagiarism of a John Fogerty song to which he didn’t own the copyright. That is right he got sued for sounding like himself. The label head initiated a separate $144 million defamation lawsuit that claimed Fogerty portrayed him as “a thief, robber, adulterer, and murderer.” The two sides settled that suit out of court.)
John Fogerty won Fantasy, Inc. v. Fogerty; he then sued to recover legal fees and won Fogerty v. Fantasy. Vanz Kant Danz (Saul Zaentz) but he'll steal your money...
They owned it! Gladys Knight and the Pips and Marvin Gaye have versions. All three are different and unique. Can't remember which was first - maybe Gladys. Midnight Special, Run through the Jungle, It came out of the Sky are some of my favorites. They even did Cotton Fields Back Home which is very enjoyable. Enjoyed your reactions.
This song has a interesting history of those who have sung it..The First version to be Released & given air play was done by "Gladys Knight & the Pips"..Now, the interesting thing about this is even though Glady's version came first, It was "Recorded" first by Marvin Gaye BUT for some unknown reason, the powers that be at Motown did NOT release his version then...CCR & others versions were eventually even given Air play BUT in summary, it was "Knight & the Pips" version that Scored the First HIT!!!
Dammit Wow! 🤣 my feed has you two up right up top of my TH-cam Playlist AAALL the time!!! Gooooood..... I don't mind... You two are doing so much right.. I'm a 46 year old white guy.... Thank you, and Bless you two!!! Prayer 🙏
Love John Fogerty, seen him in the eighties the tour after Centerfield forgot the name of the album but his voice was incredibly strong and it was an awesome show 👍 Run through the Jungle is my favorite 🙋 CCR song.
I’m so happy you kids love our music and can enjoy them, especially in light of the fact that there’s no good music now days. Yes, we love the Gladys and CCR versions. And I think they both were hits. Prayin for you and your baby.
Love your Chanel ! And yes like others have said the full 11 min version or whatever it is, is pure heaven to your ears. Here’s one for ya Georgia satellites keep your hands to yourself ! Nice rasp total fun song ! Subscribed!
You need to check out Ike & Tina Turner's version of PROUD MARY, which is by Credence Clearwater Revival. Try to find the live version on Italian TV from 1970 or 1971. I promise you there will be VOCAL GRIT APPLENTY!
As for CCR - one of my fave bands. Other songs to check out are: Bad Moon Rising Lodi Down On The Corner (my personal fave) Have You Ever Seen The Rain?
CCR never missed, with John's voice and their guitar vibes. Michael MacDonald from the Doobie Brothers did a gorgeous soulful Motown cover also: th-cam.com/video/J7sBoJye_yg/w-d-xo.html
My dad owned a gas station in Berkeley, California. They recorded their music in a warehouse down the street from his station. They were regular customers. My dad brought home the 45 of Bad Moon Rising/Lodi. He was so excited because he knew these guys!
"I Heard It Through the Grapevine" is a 1967 song written by Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong for Motown Records. It was first recorded by Gladys Knight & the Pips and went to number 2 in the United States, number 3 in Canada and number 47 in Canada.
Come on guys…. at least start with the version of Marvin Gaye. It’s a must. The original was first recorded by Gladys Knight and the Pips, so you are on point Amber😉
It was first recorded by Smokey Robinson & The Miracles, then Marvin Gaye, then Gladys Knight and the Pips…however, Gladys’ version was the first to actually be released.
I agree with others that the 11 minute version takes you to another level of listening pleasure. This version is but a snack compared to the extended version.
Agreed 💯🔥🔥
Definitely
100% agree. If you are listening to the radio edit then you are basically stealing from yourself.
Yes!
Absolutely!
No matter who does this song CCR owned it. Heard them twice live they always sound this good.
dang you lucky!!!, wish i could hear them in live
"I Put A Spell On You" gets my vote for your next CCR reaction. You won't be disappointed with any of their songs, but you will love this one.☮☮☮
Yes this is a must listen!
They have to do screaming jay Hawkins too lol
Definitely, I agree it's the best version. Hardly anyone reacts to Up around the Bend, and Traveling Band, I'm baffled. John may be touring again soon. Definitely my favorite band of all time
But it has to have the whole solo!
Another CCR cover.
Screaming Jay Hawkins original.
Both versions Epic.
Your wife Amber has to be the sweetest person on the planet. Her smile and mannerisms so full genuineness and that is rare in this world.
a fun couple, but a really fortunate fellow
I love Amber !! She is such a sweetheart and great to share all of her emotions and to be herself.
I would not be watching unless she was there..
Her man keeps stepping over her reactions but she has more emotions in her smile than he in his whole being..sorry
They experience different things from the songs. Amber is about feelings and emotions, as expected, she's a mother.
He is about the other aspects of the music, and that's right too.
They balance each other.
John Fogerty is one of America’s best singer-songwriters.
Yeah, but this isn't his song.
And he had to fight the record co. to play and sing songs her wrote.
@@Ploutmos Ok singer?
What I found was Marvin Gaye as original singer. It was what I had remembered from past but I wanted to be sure.
@@markmoore1738 The original was actually Gladys Knight and the Pips.

I'm game for a re-do, as I'm sure many others from that era will agree...!
I am thinking the same!
Definitely!
Eleven minutes and eleven seconds, to be precise...
Thinking the same. Do the 11 minute version.
Yeppers

John Fogarty, the leader of ccr wrote it, sang and performed it's hi original song
@@patrickmcelhone1446 Written by Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong, original by Gladys Knight & The Pips. It's also spelled "Fogerty"
It was the first song to hit a million sales by three different artists!
Marvin Gaye did the original version. It’s amazing! Other CCR “Bad Moon Rising”, Have you ever seen the rain”, “The Midnight Special”, “Up around the bend”.
Apparently it was the Miracles. th-cam.com/video/a3Jo5pmFKgg/w-d-xo.html

"Bad Moon Rising" -> one of the common misunderstood lyrics in the chorus: "There's a bathroom on the right..." 😆
John Fogarty and CCR created their own genre ... Swamp Rock. Legendary!
Love this but also love the Marvin Gaye version. He is another artist to check out!
The original was Gladys Knight and the Pips... then Marvin Gay... then Creedence Clearwater Revival.... I literally had all three 45rpm records... just a very good song! react to all three...
A lot of songs from the Marvin Gaye catalog gets blocked.

Gladys and Marvin for me but CCW are good
The Slits version is the best one
Can't go wrong with any CCR track. Fogerty and that iconic sound is an American treasure
The eleven minute version has a longer guitar solo to really sink your teeth into. Also, check out their cover of "I Put A Spell On You"; you will love it!
Yeesss y'all please listen to the extended version
Was just about to recommend that song
It's so wild. Most of the songs you react to I've heard a thousand times but your enthusiastic and appreciative reactions make me love the songs even more. All I know is that the new baby Amber is carrying is gonna be a lover of great music! 💯❤️
“Have You Ever Seen The Rain” is another CCR classic to check out! They do a cover of “I Put a Spell On You” that’s also decent.
Have you ever seen the rain was their first ccr reaction.
@@markbell4982 I thought they did “Fortunate Son”
@@PrittyPeas oops! You are right. It was another reaction couple I just watched an hour or so ago and got them mixed up. Please excuse an old man's scrambled brain.
@@markbell4982 haha all good!
@Dirt Fisher yes!! And “Susie Q” too!
When others sing this song, it's "I heard it through the grapevine". When CCR sings it, it's "I hoid it through the grapevine". Gives it a bit more flavor.
Definitely Sergio, "hoid" puts a little dollop of BBQ sauce on the more mellow (yet still poignant) Marvin Gaye version.
CCR is quite possibly the most underrated band of all time. They are timeless and transcendent. One of the greatest catalogs of any band in rock n roll history.
Totally agree! They weren’t capable of being anything less than brilliant.
Whose underrating them? ....Not Me : )
Agreed they are much better than the eagles. But dont get half the respect or standing in music history. Could be to do with timing. It's like comparing the Original Fleetwood Mac with Peter Green. To the polished over commercial Fleetwood mac of the mid 70s. You cant. Peter Greens Mac was far deeper and grittier.
Not underrated at all.
Sorry, they are not underrated. Wishful thinking on your part? They are what they are...an excellent band.
When CCR does someone’s song they seriously give it complete justice. The mark of a great artist and CCR is a great artist. Amazing band!
This is not the full version of CCR’s cover, they basically have a great big jamming session throughout. I love CCR and I love the sound of this version
YES!!! Thank you for bringing that up, it should be public knowledge, great song.
Yeah, the full-length version is awesome - the only thing wrong with it is that it's too short ;-)
Yeah. This kind of just faded out. Must be the single version for radio play.
Yes! 11 minutes of CCR greatness on the Cosmos Factory album!
Sad they didn’t play the long version
CCR don't do bad music... you can't go wrong with anything you listen to theirs... this is a classic...
This song really deserves to be played in its entirety. Listen to the full version.
CCR was our pre-Friday night out music before heading out for a night of dancing…always got us going! And where we lived we were lucky to have a fantastic CCR cover band who showed up now and then…so good!

Listen to their song "Bad Moon Rising." At 67, I owned all their albums. Southern rock!
Southern rock by a SF Bay Area band.
Yes, they were from California. Their sound was southern rock.
Rock orginated in the south, when you say Southern Rock it's like saying Rock-Rock. It sounds kinda silly. (That's Rock according to Duane Allman. )
I still own their albums and I have the greatest record player. They sound like they recorded yesterday.
Honestly, watching you two has made me appreciate music I didn't care much for when I was younger.
Certainly check out all the recommended CCR songs, but you may also like lead singer John Fogerty’s solo work:
“The Old Man Down the Road”
“Centerfield”
Centerfield…..wow, I had forgotten all about the song! Definitely one of Fogerty’s very best! Now I’ve got to dig that one up from my Fogerty/CCR collection and give it a listen.
Never in my life played any organized baseball, but Centerfield always makes me want to grab a glove and go outside - even in a Minnesota winter.
The dirty, low down evil percussion just makes this THE definitive version of this song. Plus that sweet howling falsetto takes it stratospheric.
"Have you Ever Seen the Rain" , and "Looking Out My Back-door" are a couple classics of theirs. For a couple lesser known gems, give "Midnight Special" or "Someday Never Comes" a listen.

Yeah are we gonna make Jamber a thing? I kinda like it 👍🏽
@@ms.dirtybird7779 We should!
CCR pretty much can't lose. Fogerty was an incredible writer, and the band is tight and consistent. Quality through the roof.
Down on the Corner, Bad Moon Rising, Born on the Bayou and Midnight Special are all great!!

Lodi!
They took a great song and made a tremendous cover of it….I agree it is perfect.
Blue-eyed soul, southern style, by a California boy. Rock is for everyone. There is a long version with a much longer guitar solo.
Amber is right - this is song is PERFECT! Now go hear the full 11-minute version. And for the next CCR song I recommend "I Put A Spell On You."
“Down on the Corner” is one of my absolute favorite CCR songs.
If you've got a nickle, won't you lay your money down.
Gotta listen n react to this one guys!!!!
First song I ever learned on guitar was Down on the corner
Agree, this was the first of their songs I ever heard, I love it.
Yes, yes!!! Great song!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
****It feels like forever, I've been waiting for a reactor to cover CCR, thanks guys, I love CCR****
Oh no, this is not the 10 minute version of the song. Find that one, it's a real Banger. You guys are great. 8-4-2021
Oh guys luv your reaction but you really gotta hear the long version of this, so much more to get into, and it's fantastic creative jamming, CCR bliss. Also as correctly suggested below the live version of 'I put a spell on you' is an absolute fire cracker with spell binding vocals (scuse the pun), gotta do that one too..
As a sports fan, Jordan, you'll get a kick out of John Fogerty's "Centerfield"
"Long As I Can See the Light" is a must, a bit slower and bluesy too. Great number
CCR best song: "Long As I Can See the Light" - sad, slow(er), soulful, and still rocks out!
Agree for certain
Yes! My favorite song of theirs!
one of the best songs ever made
CCR is the orginal artist who created that song and no one else, it is the original!!
Original "'Marvin Gaye" essential reaction!!!!
Would even appreciate CCR version more of how they took such an already beautifully soulful track and made it their own. Both versions A+.
And Gladys Knight...
Norman Whitfield original***
@@EbenezerFink06 That's why I personally prefer James Brown Sly Stone and
Curtis Mayfield. They wrote their own material.
Can't forget Gladys and her Pips. It's such a great song to sing.
Great to see a young couple enjoying the wonderful classics. There is good music now but way back when every other song on the radio was a favorite! Such a variety too, loved it then and surely appreciate more today!
You should do CCR - I Heard It Through The Grape Vine 11.11 min. version . This is a short version that cuts off too early .
"Seven-thirty-seven comin' out of the sky..." Do "Playin' in a Traveling Band" next!
Y’all should hear the full, extended version. It’s 9 or 10 minutes in length , and Fogerty will melt your face with lead guitar and vocals.
11 min 10 sec
If you remember the California Raisens you'll remember this song LOVE IT
❤🎵 Love CCR - you can't go wrong with any song - one of my favorites ... Down on the Corner.
SAME!!! Not one bad CCR song!!!
TOTO Hold the line from 1978 , Would be a huge banger That was VERY POPULAR In 1978 When it was Released You 2 will get a LOT of viewers , I PROMISE ,,, Take care
Yes. Down on the corner is so good. Looking out my backdoor. John wrote that one to watch his son dance.
@@garywi.9299 Love that song !!
@@giarogers Hope you don't mind me sharing, but I've had some traumatic brain injury. Hearing these songs is bringing back volumes of memories. Not all good, but they're mine. Have a blessed day.
This was the song that the California Raisins sang on the tv commercial for the raisins in Cali. There were 4 Raisins singing and dancing !
One of those great, timeless standards that "lend themselves" to different interpretations. Gladys Knight, Marvin Gaye --those are the two older great performances.
Such a great song. Gladys Knight and the Pips recorded it first, then Marvin Gaye released it as well. It's a great song, and all versions are great but no one sounds like John Fogerty. CCR always rock!
Up Around the Bend, Who'll Stop the Rain, Green River, The Midnight Special, Proud Mary, Down On the Corner, Travelin Band, Lodi, Run Through the Jungle, All CCR hits
This is the music I came of age to ~~ Thanks for the fun reaction!
They do an amazing version of.." I put a spell on you"
I love that you guys are groovin' on CCR! God bless.
The singer John Fogerty Was Sued for Ripping Off John Fogerty
yeah not a typo.
John Fogerty was accused of plagiarism of a John Fogerty song to which he didn’t own the copyright.
That is right he got sued for sounding like himself.
The label head initiated a separate $144 million defamation lawsuit that claimed Fogerty portrayed him as “a thief, robber, adulterer, and murderer.” The two sides settled that suit out of court.)
its still today funny as hell that he got sued for being himself.
John Fogerty won Fantasy, Inc. v. Fogerty; he then sued to recover legal fees and won Fogerty v. Fantasy. Vanz Kant Danz (Saul Zaentz) but he'll steal your money...
They owned it! Gladys Knight and the Pips and Marvin Gaye have versions. All three are different and unique. Can't remember which was first - maybe Gladys. Midnight Special, Run through the Jungle, It came out of the Sky are some of my favorites. They even did Cotton Fields Back Home which is very enjoyable. Enjoyed your reactions.
This song has a interesting history of those who have sung it..The First version to be Released & given air play was done by "Gladys Knight & the Pips"..Now, the interesting thing about this is even though Glady's version came first, It was "Recorded" first by Marvin Gaye BUT for some unknown reason, the powers that be at Motown did NOT release his version then...CCR & others versions were eventually even given Air play BUT in summary, it was "Knight & the Pips" version that Scored the First HIT!!!
If I may put in a vote for your next CCR song, let it be "Have You Ever Seen the Rain". It's pure poetry.
I’ll always love the Marvin Gaye version, but this rendition is amazing!
"Put a candle", and "Some day, never comes"!
Soul like you couldn't believe.
Dammit Wow! 🤣 my feed has you two up right up top of my TH-cam Playlist AAALL the time!!! Gooooood..... I don't mind... You two are doing so much right.. I'm a 46 year old white guy.... Thank you, and Bless you two!!! Prayer 🙏
You’ve got to check out the studio version ,11 minutes long🤘🏼
i think this sounds perfect too! and when she blurts it out, it made me feel SO GOOD to know others feel how perfect it is! luv u guys
Love John Fogerty, seen him in the eighties the tour after Centerfield forgot the name of the album but his voice was incredibly strong and it was an awesome show 👍 Run through the Jungle is my favorite 🙋 CCR song.
the album version is 11 minutes of amazing jamming... a must-listen!
CCR has always been a favorite band of mine. I bought the same album 3 times. In 8-track cassette and CD. 😊
...and digital.
His voice is rockin on Long as I can see the light
“Travelin’ Band” is a great CCR song.
okay, the "skkrrrrrrr" that J said - I'm gonna use that, somehow in my every day conversations because that's just funny!!!
"Fortunate Son" is the song you should be doing a reaction on!!!
They did: th-cam.com/video/iub8CYcE_Sc/w-d-xo.html
@@adagraves ok...thanks...I obviously missed that!!
Yep. That and Traveling Band.
THey've also done "Born on the Bayou". So far, I think, it's just the three songs.
They did fortunate son
I’m so happy you kids love our music and can enjoy them, especially in light of the fact that there’s no good music now days. Yes, we love the Gladys and CCR versions. And I think they both were hits. Prayin for you and your baby.
You probably heard the Sunkist raisins singing this.
😂
I can’t hear it withOUT thinking of the California Raisins 🤪
Sun Maid actually, but the ads were on behalf of the California Raisin Advisory Board
Love your Chanel ! And yes like others have said the full 11 min version or whatever it is, is pure heaven to your ears.
Here’s one for ya Georgia satellites keep your hands to yourself ! Nice rasp total fun song ! Subscribed!
Maybe grand funk railroad. SoMe kind of wonderful! Pure earphone bliss !👍
You need to check out Ike & Tina Turner's version of PROUD MARY, which is by Credence Clearwater Revival. Try to find the live version on Italian TV from 1970 or 1971. I promise you there will be VOCAL GRIT APPLENTY!
Seems they do so well with covers.... they make up some of my favourites from CCR
Yes!!! Phenomenal live performance
@@alfrancis8 actually John Fogerty wrote Proud Mary. The Turner's are the cover of it.
Absolutely the best! Their catalog of incredible music is so deep you could react for weeks. Each song is better than the last!
Heard it Through the Grape 🍇 Vine was Marvin Gaye's big Hit back in the Late 60's!!
"Run Through the Jungle" and "Long As I Can See the Light" are 2 of my favorites. You really can't go wrong with CCR.
My favorite CCR song. It was one of Marvin Gaye's biggest hits. This version is different and it made me a huge fan of the band. 👏
marvin gaye covered it a ccr original
Marvin Gaye and the Temptations sing it better
@@m8bod645 I thought it was the other way around.
There are several great singers who sing this song. CCR is hands down my favorite ( the long version with a lot rocking instrumental)!!!
As for CCR - one of my fave bands. Other songs to check out are:
Bad Moon Rising
Lodi
Down On The Corner (my personal fave)
Have You Ever Seen The Rain?
Don't forget 'Who'll Stop the Rain" "Almost Saturday Night'' Or "Someday Never Comes''.
Let me add...
Midnight Special
Lookin' Out My Back Door
Thanks Amber and Rob for your reactions from an oldie from down under.
CCR never missed, with John's voice and their guitar vibes. Michael MacDonald from the Doobie Brothers did a gorgeous soulful Motown cover also: th-cam.com/video/J7sBoJye_yg/w-d-xo.html
Love CCR! Great reaction, ya'll!
If you love the solo then listen to the extended version which is around 10-12 minutes long. 🤘🤘
I like how they all seem to be really enjoying the groove, its (at at that stage) still a pleasure for them.
I'm not a huge fan of reactions to songs being covered that were already perfect, but I'm a huge fan of you two!
My dad owned a gas station in Berkeley, California. They recorded their music in a warehouse down the street from his station. They were regular customers. My dad brought home the 45 of Bad Moon Rising/Lodi. He was so excited because he knew these guys!
The best cover of this song was done by Gladys Knight. I saw her perform it live in Dallas and left with my heart deliciously smashed into pieces.
Gladys Knight has an incredible voice, there is so much emotion and intensity to her singing.
@@normanleroy1874 There are NO disappointments attached to Ms. Knight! ;^)
Gladys and the Pips are 🔥🔥🔥 never a bad song. Would love to hear them react to a song or 2 of hers.
"I Heard It Through the Grapevine" is a 1967 song written by Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong for Motown Records. It was first recorded by Gladys Knight & the Pips and went to number 2 in the United States, number 3 in Canada and number 47 in Canada.
Cosmos Factory , Hell of an Album . 😊
Omg. I'm 13 again. Lol
50 years later I still love these guys. Talent and fun.
Come on guys…. at least start with the version of Marvin Gaye. It’s a must. The original was first recorded by Gladys Knight and the Pips, so you are on point Amber😉
It was first recorded by Smokey Robinson & The Miracles, then Marvin Gaye, then Gladys Knight and the Pips…however, Gladys’ version was the first to actually be released.
Ike and Tina Turner , Smash hit !!
Ok may be wrong , Allways thought CCR Did it First.
I get excited knowing how much you're gonna like the songs I grew up with.
