This was written after several members of the band got drafted into the military. It’s a statement that rich kids were able to get out of going by their rich daddies and the regular, poor kids had to go to war. This is one of the best war protest songs ever!
My Dad got drafted. Served for a year in the Army in Vietnam near the Cambodian border.
Starting with the Civil war the rich in the north could buy their sons out of serving.
My favorite CCR song! 🔥
You do really need historical context. Yes the rich kids got a pass, they were either sent to Canada or abroad to college. We heard that every day. And everyday we listened to the lists of the dead, wondering if our family member, spouse or close friend was dead. I was a hippie, I still am, peace has always been at the forefront of my life. We are still sending our men and women out to die. My son included, I was fortunate because he came home.
This song will be completely timeless......
Until we stop going to war.
@@hilarytoffler7053 I saw many of my classmates drafted and sent to Viet Nam. At that time the SSA was using a lottery system to determine who was getting drafted, but my number was too high for me to get drafted. I did enlist in the Air Force and spent 20 years working on B-52 bombers. I have historical context.
It was one of the great anti-Vietnam war songs, where 18/19 yr old boys were being drafted and dying while senator's and millionaire's sons were being exempted. I, as a woman, wasn't going to be drafted but I protested and helped end the thing, still proud today!
You should be proud. ❤️
I was also a proud protester. May 4th 1970 Kent State University.
@@lindag4484 You was at the protest where 4 people were massacred?
@@DustinHawke Yes, I was a freshman. I had been to a class on front campus and was heading back to Fletcher Hall, my dormitory, for lunch in the cafeteria there. There was to be a protest rally on the Commons by the Victory Bell at noon and I knew I would be passing through there on my way to lunch. I had an afternoon class but I hung around for as long as I could, then left the crowd, proceeded up, and had just crossed :blanket hill" and headed down toward Fletcher Hall when the gunfire started. There were trees between the National Guard/gunfire/students and me. Dean Kahler was in my Sociology class. He was wounded, paralyzed from the waist down.
@@lindag4484 Thank You for your personal story, Linda. I am a younger generation.(50) but my mom told me she believed that all the protesting certainly made a difference.
It was a Viet Nam war song basically saying he’s not a rich kid who can get out of the draft. Only the poor kids went to Viet Nam. A lot got out of the draft because of their parents.
That's it in a nut shell, good job Patty
I might add one more method they avoided the draft: being a draft dodger. These people risked arrest and imprisonment by leaving the country (mostly to Canada) to hide. They were looked upon as unpatriotic cowards. However, they just didn't want die in the jungles of Viet Nam thousands of miles from home in a war they didn't support.
He’s expressing the thought of most people who’s chosen to fight in their country’s wars are basically poor/middle class as the rich and powerful families have ways of avoiding the wars.
Born on the Bayou should be next for this band. It's a total vibe! 🔥
All of their songs are phenomenal!! This is one of my absolute favorites!! ❤️🎶
This was a Vietnam protest song
All the African American and poor white kids were sent off to die
I grew up on the great music of the 60's-70's. CCR has always been one of my favorites. They don't have a bad song! John Fogerty has one of the most unique & recognizable voices around. All their songs are great - "Proud Mary", "Born On The Bayou", "Bad Moon Rising", "Lodi", "Green River", "Commotion", "Night Time Is The Right Time", "Down On The Corner", "Cotton Fields", "Midnight Special", "Travelin' Band", "Who'll Stop The Rain", "Up Around the Bend", "Run Through The Jungle", "Lookin' Out My Back Door", "Long As I Can See the Light", "Suzie Q", "I Heard It Through The Grapevine", "Sweet Hitch-Hiker" etc.
Love ccr
They wrote most of their lyrics for the men fighting in the Vietnam War and the soldiers used to jam out to credence Clearwater revival aka CCR. THEY ARE AWESOME!!!
This should be the national anthem as far as I'm concerned.
Oh sir the reason they said the house looks like a rummage sale is it speaking about how rich people will hide their money and their valuables to not pay taxes. It is a commentary on the greed of people who actually have a lot. Thank you for your reactions. With respect to everyone on the channel. Brant Heavner 😁😁👋
Every time I hear this song I picture the opening scenes from Apocalypse Now “I love the smell of napalm in the morning” ☮️❤️🌻👵🏼
I was fortunate enough to see these guys in concert in the early 70s. They were fantastic. And yes a lot of family, friends and school members were sent off to war cause we was poor and white. A lot never made it home.😥🥀
During Viet Nam war boys in collage weren’t drafted but every day kids were. Back then most couldn’t afford to go to collage so they were drafted. So many young men were killed. Eventually young people started demonstrating against the war Evan the ones who were in collage. Young people during those days started going against their parents generation because they saw how all these beautiful young people were being carried off to war and coming back in a coffin. For nothing. There were a lot of things going on in those days that changed society and opened everyone’s eyes. X
Classic!
Vietnam era protest song, this and its flipside were played by the troops as they deployed in our most unpopular war.
CCR is the ultimate Road Trip Band!
For real ❤️😂
They have a fantastic song Someone in this direction that is longer and with more variation in it and it's probably one of their most emotional songs although they have so many. And that one is called, someday Never Comes. Another one directly on those lines that is slow and Soulful and just heart ripping it's called, long as I can see the light. This young man's going off to war in Vietnam and the mortality rate was so high over there at the time that he figured he probably was going to get killed, tripped a wire so to speak. So he's telling his loved ones that as long as they leave a candle in the window, his spirit will find his way back.
I love everything that this band did. And everything the lead singer did separately.
I was seven when this was released in late 60’s. I had two older brothers who were eligible for Vietnam draft. At the time, people who had connections were able to avoid Vietnam all kinds of ways. Leaving mostly working class kids to fight the war. I always thought this song was about that .
Certainly You've heard this song before.
I assume about 90% of all Vietnam War scenes in movies are soundtracked with this song.
Was written during the Vietnam war. Truth though for real. Still a lot of truth fits today too
It's great to see this generation listening to great music.
Of course will watch all of CCR 👍not sure which ones you have posted. Suzie Q and Midnight Special are also good
This song was a protest!!! It's a jam tho!!!! I shared a cold pitcher of Budweiser with the singer John Fogerty !!!! He is a down to earth wonderful man!!! Thanks Adogg!
Enjoy watching !!!
I'm with Robert G. "Born on the Bayou" should be next!!!! NOW PLEASE!!!🤣🤣🤣🎵🎼🎶🎸🎹🥁🎤🎙🎧💜🤘🤘🤘
Joh Fogerty is on tour and will be in Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada on July 17th.
You've got to be my favorite reactor! I really enjoy your videos!
Almost every CCR song, you wish it could go on forever. That said, there are some shortened versions out there, so when you do some of their others, make sure you get the full versions (e.g. "I Heard it Through the Grapevine" - 11 minutes, "Born on the Bayou - 5 minutes, "Suzie Q" - 8 minutes, or 10 or 11 for a couple of the live versions).
Gotta ask... Do those of you reactors ever put some of these greats on your song playlist and, like us old farts that grew up with them, find yourselves singing along and playing either your air drums or air guitar to these great tunes? At 63, I still do! :) Let me know, I really am curious!
It was an anti war song. Just remember some people don't wanna go to war, me included. But thank God we still have people that wanna serve, cause the minute we don't, all your freedom to be safe go away.
Probably my favorite by these guys. They definitely tell you what’s on their mind! ❤️🎼❤️
This song was true during 'Nam, and it holds true through the present day. We no longer have the draft, it is true, but for many young kids either just out of high school or that have dropped out, college/university is cost-prohibitive, and for many, their options are the military or McDonald's. We are still living in a society where there are the rich, and the rest of us scrabble all our lives just to get by. I am a woman, but I surely ain't no fortunate woman in the way this song is presenting. CCR was a great band, and I appreciate them for writing and performing this song.
Just an awesome song! ♥
in my family we call this the Al Gore song his daddy was a Tennessee Senator who got him a deferment.
CCR since I was a kid man-made Rock I love them
Us hippies in the 60s loved this song.
Another song that criticizes the Vietnam War is "Run Through The Jungle" which is one of their very best songs!
Its about the people that got away from going to the service. A lot of us did not get out of doing our duty.
This was the favorite Vietnam war protest song
No rich man son goes
One of the best Vietnam protest songs. And yes, I watched you to the end. I like your reactions.
This song sums up an era.
My fav band!!!course I stayed to the end!!!!!
A lot of songs were written in the time of the draft. Some kids with connections, didn't have to go. "Ain't it me, I'm not a fortunate son." One of the greatest anti-war songs written. The biggest problem with these songs, older people thought we were singing against soldiers. We were singing against WAR. We wanted our soldiers & friends to come home safely. Most were FORCED to fight. It wasn't even our war. We were protesting for love & peace. And people still aren't listening and it's 50 years later. Makes me sad. They say we can't have both peace and freedom. Why? ☮
Jan, I am of that generation, but a Brit, so myself and many others only saw it from the outside, people our own age being sent off to fight and die in a pointless war, just when they were coming of age, feeling the vibe of the time, then Bang´´ we can´t have this, we all know what went down, Peace and freedom! that don´t make money, no they are not listening, never did, never will, the1% Jan..................Peace.
"We wanted our soldiers & friends to come home safely"
y'all had a funny way of showing it. spitting on soldiers and calling them babykillers. you'll forgive me if i don't take your word for it.
@@mayorjimmy Who are you answering.
@@davehagi9883 I literally quoted Jan's comment before replying.
@@mayorjimmy Maybe a good idea right now to hear Jan´s response.
I Put Spell on You( cover) is one of their best songs, live if you can...
Fantastic Performance
Enjoying your channel
Probably every Vietnam movie has this song in it, Theme 🎵
Great music comes from difficult times, 60s early 70s was turmoil. Assassinations, JFK, BOBBY Kennedy, MLK
CIVIL RIGHTS, WAR,
Music reflects History
This is my favorite song of theirs thank you
Man I love this band thanks for reacting. Down on the corner is my favorite song by them you should check it out
Some day never comes is one you should listen to
Used to listen to them with my dad them and the eagles were his faves
CCR... great music! Awesome song! 🎶💯🔥💝 Was playing this in the car recently.
CCR will always be one of my favorite bands.
Would you react to a couple of oldies but goodies for me? 1959 , Sea of Love, Phil Phillips and 1961 , Sea of Heartbreak- Don Gibson
Great choice. We all wish it was longer, but its pithiness carries its punch. There is a reason you hear this song playing in almost every Vietnam movie--because then, like today, it's the poor and disenfranchised who do the fighting and dying in our wars. Read Erich Remarque's "All Quiet on the Western Front" to get a better, deeper idea about what Fogerty is trying to say with this song. Thanks and good luck with your channel!
I did enjoy and stayed to the end I didn't think I'd know this one of there songs but in the end I'd heard it before not sure where
Yeah I'm glad that you're getting into good music I love it too my love it your doing a good job much love
Watched alll the way. Have to if it CCR
CCR has a lot of good songs, this being one of them. So good to hear it again! Watched it all Adogg!
CCR looking out my back door.✌💞🙏
Adoog, i'm herer early so come on man do "Keep On Choogin" by CCR...a real banger. Iv'e asked countless times for this so come on do me a solid and react to it.
I live that song!!🎉❤
“Keep on Chooglin’”!
@@patriciab825 I cant count how many prties went through the roof when we put that song on. Keep on Chooglin Patricia
I love CCR, one of my all time favorites. Though the Irony, John Fogerty's kids are million dollar sons and daughters. Lol. But John is a legend.
Hey my brother, it's about all of us who live out lives without prooving us simple people. It ain't too hard to get.
Here til the end you know it Adogg I got you man🤘👍🤜🧡🤛
This is talking about how, especially Vietnam, was fought by a lot of poor young men who were drafted, while the senators, and rich fought to avoid their own sons from fighting. If you talked to the average soldier, they came from a poor family. The rich never saw combat, just collected medals from afar
Actually a great song protesting the Vietnam War. Been a huge fan of them since Suzie Q in 68. At least a dozen great hit songs. My favorites r I put a Spell on You & Night time is the Right Time, they all were on 🔥 Fire!!!
You need to watch the video. This was an ugly war. This was the first war that was brought into the average house hold. I was married to a Vietnam vet. What they had to do and see was horrific. We have become desensitized to war now. These soldiers were treated so badly when they came home. Many were unable to cope with civilian life anymore. Many died to agent orange, cancer, and depression.
The Vietnam war was happening then so this song has great meaning. it's a protest song and one of the best. imo
Hard to believe Creedence and Journey are both from San Francisco, just a few miles apart…same city, totally different sounds!
More CCR
Just a straight-up late 60s protest song man! #Peace!
My favourite cover of this song is by Cat Power. Please give it a listen, her version is bluesy and orchestral.
CCR I must say the only problem I have with their music is the songs are too short! But not their fault, songs had to be short back then.
Since you're on the old tunes, check out Screaming Night Hog by Steppenwolf!
Not a protest song
BEST Anti-War Rock Song.
“House looks like a Roman stage…it’s empty.
This was an anti-war song, talking about how the rich boys and politicians sons were able to avoid the draft in the Vietnam war.
Back in the day, the IRS would actually go to your house to do audits. Sometimes well to do folks might make their homes look poorer than they were to match what they had on paper. Thus, their house look like a rummage sale when the taxman comes to the door, lol.
brother in laws daddy is a senator.....everytime I hear this song I think about that....I AINT NO SENATORS SON.....well...he is.......LOL
best part of having a daddy that is a sentor,daddy gets senator tags on the cars...ALL of them and when he was younger he tortured the cops running 75 mph in a 35 because at least in my state,its illegal to pull over a sentor or a car that has a senator tag on it....he'd torture the cops when he was young....LOL
I think the song speaks to the class-based society America is and how privilege always "wins out" and the "lower" classes pay the price
One of their best!
All the young hippies protesting the Vietnam War 💪👏
I put a spell on you. FIRE/ BLUES ⚡⚡⚡🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hunter Biden is a senators son ... just saying. They thought they were singing this song about current events durring late 60s early 70s but didnt realize how prophetic it would be 50-60 years later.
All about the VietNam era and anti-war /protest songs of that time. CCR are phenomenal.
I feel that way about all CCR songs all end too early
This is an anti Vietnam war anthem putting down how the rich kids didn’t have to serve mostly the poor kids
This was voted the most popular Anti-Vietnam War Song.
John Fogerty was in the Army before he was a rock star.
You should listen to entire bayou country or chronicles their greatest hits collection
It was a Vietnam song that's why he says I ain't no senator's son because the senator sons would not drafted and sent to Vietnam and if I remember correctly this song was after a few of the band members have been drafted and sent to Vietnam you lost a lot of young boys there 18 19 year old boys back in the day there were a lot of protest songs about the war also a lot of good music at that time
🌟
Please do MIDNIGHT SPECIAL and UP AROUND THE BEND and SWEET HITCH HIKER by CCR !!
Read John's book, "Fortunate Son"
❤❤❤❤❤
It's about the Vietnam War and the draft / draft dodging.
CCR _ Run Through the Jungle
