"Not a lot of musicians could pull that off." Actually many, many musicians do this day in and day out, that's what being a musician is all about. I think what you meant is not many people on today's top 40 could pull that off. 😁

I totally agree! Just makes me laugh that Drake thinks hes the 5th Beetle..... Try in 50yrs, ask if anyone knows who Drake is?? I highly doubt ANYONE will have a clue. But I guarantee they will know CCR, Beetles, Rolling Stones after a 100yrs!!!!
It actually kinda stresses me out. I went flying off an old twisty road doing about 60, belting this song out because it came on the radio, and a telephone pole actually took my mirror off (I was that close).

I went to a CCR tribute band show last year at one of those local clubs for old people. Decided to go with my brother, cousin and a couple of mates and make a night of it. All in our mid 20's, we were easily the youngest ones there by a long shot; had an awesome night, good memories were made. However, my highlight of the night was seeing close to 100 people well into their 80's and 90's getting up, dancing and enjoying their night like they were young again.
Recan It’s amazing how a song or band can bring you right back to that time. Great soundtrack to a memory! Just curious, is there one particular memory you’d wanna share? Love to read stuff like this. I talk with my father in law about his time in the 60’s and I almost feel like I was there. Best story he told was when he saw Dillon go electric for the first time.

Rather see John sing than old photos that I have seen before. John still has the chops and I hope he never retires. Met him once in a Northridge California sporting goods store 30 years ago. Very nice man.
g g I started college at the University of Nevada Reno and my friend in college grew up a few doors down from him in El Cerrito in the Bay Area and he remembers as a kid listening to him and his brother play in a band in the Fogerty’s garage.
I know what you mean! I had the pleasure of meeting John in 1999 at a show in Mansfield, MA. John is very nice. He commented on the red bandanna I was wearing.
@@trs4437 It's a shame, because lets face it. If a stand up comedian can fill a stadium, one man and a guitar should be able to also. If the talent is there.
“It started out as a sad song many years ago,” Fogerty said. “It was about a sad occasion in my life, but I refuse to be sad now. These days, it’s a very happy song because it reminds me of my beautiful, little baby girl, Kelsy, and that is the truth.” “Kelsy rules my world,” he added. “And she knows it. Anyway, Kelsy is a rainbow in my life, and this song has a rainbow in it.”
I'm 61 years old.. And nearly as far back as my memories go, this man has been a part of my life. I grew up in the LA area, Redondo Beach to be exact. And throughout the neighborhood, everyone could hear my dad blasting CCR from the garage while he worked on one of his projects. They were his favorite band... John is an American Icon...
@@robertobeco1302 Absolutely... But I reckon every generation pretty much says the same thing. And their right. As the world continues to get worse every year, each generation looks back on their time, on their memories of youth and recall how much better things were back when.. For those of us for example who were kids in the sixties and early seventies, we remember the great TV shows, all the incredible toys. Halloween and Christmas were amazing and wonderful times. But our parents remember the Cuban missile crisis, the assassination of JFK, MLK, the Vietnam War, the Draft, and all those boys who never came home... So I reckon it's how we perceive things. For me personally, even with all the bad, those were amazing times. And the music was absolutely a huge part of it all. And no doubt helped to shape the entire generation...
GOAT. No auto tuner. No prep. Just picked up someone else's guitar and belted out a classic at a moments notice. What else can you say. Epic, just epic.
Dude, it was His guitar !!! You really think someone just had a guitar back there, tuned to the key John Fogerty needed to sing this song in the same key it was done originally??????
I agree...certain music, if you hear it unexpectedly, can cause raw emotions, cause of how great the music was...like when this dude on americas got talent or one of those dumb shows, the guy started playing a led zeppelin song...I lost it.
He starts strumming, and you feel a shock. Gawd. Just grab that guitar, and let it rip. Gheezus. Cook and Clifford gotta forgive him. Not to play togethe, but for their friendship. How can you stay mad at this authentic, beutiful persn?
When I was 9, my Mom and I stopped by the post office. She ran inside and I waited in the truck. Beautiful sunny day. And suddenly it started raining. I'd never seen anything like it. One of those core memories. Years later, I heard CCR's song and instantly warped back to that day. And do so every time I hear it. Love ya Mom. I miss you.
I love Conan's appreciation for music.... he Always said he didn't want to end the show until he had Bono and Cash on it. You can see how the music captures him, and how he gets lost in it.... Like a kid watching from home 🖤
Wow!!! Someone told me long ago..there is a calm before the storm…Tears in my eyes..this voice,this guutar play..pure goosebumps! 71years old from Germany!
Hey John Fogerty, when I was a little boy, around the age of 12 or 13, I went over to my friend's house and heard creedence clearwater revival band for the first time. Immediately it happened to me and this music has not let go of me ever since. In 2011 I drove an old bike and a trailer over 7000 km from Vancouver to Alaska and back again. I wanted to find peace with my late father and dedicated this tour to him. What do you think, John Fogerty, what kind of music was I going through my senses on the endless highways ?! Yes sir; Have You Ever Seen The Rain, Someday Never Comes, Lodi and many more of your songs have been a constant companion on my tour to Alaska. When I was driving over the Stewart Cassiar Highway at night because I really wanted to reach the Kinaskan Lake campground, a big grizzly bear suddenly lay 10 meters next to me in the grass and looked after me with interest ... at that moment I was mine Heart slipped in the pants. You can imagine that! I just looked ahead to get ahead and when I finally reached the lake on this full moon night your song came to my mind; long as i can see the light. Please excuse my limited knowledge of english. John Fogerty, I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and best regards from Germany! Klaus Lüttgen rocktheroads.de
A legend and a guitar. That's all we need today in this wild wild world..to ease the pain and appreciate life in general.. Thank you, John and the band, for making your precious and unforgettable music for us. With love and respect from India.
Vietnam was the worst war ever. I lost a lot of friends, even though those friends came back, they were never really a part of life anymore, but ccr made it a little better. At least when ccr played and we sang along it felt like old times just for those brief moments. To all the vets, from every war, thank you for your service.
When I was a kid (about a thousand years ago) I had a 45rpm with Fortunate Son that I played so often, my brother broke it. I’ve been a fan of yours since 10 years old.
My dad introduced me to ccr when I was in middle school. Now my dad has his days numbered due to cancer. Ccr will forever hold a special place in my heart and every time I play them I will continue to think of my dad even when he's long gone from this world. Ccr fan for life.
My favorite part is around 39 seconds when Conan is so excited he doesn’t know what to do with his arms. You can tell he loves CCR and this was an great experience for him.
I saw CCR with the Sir Douglas Quintet, in about 1969 (?) at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium, and it was GREAT. I wore a Nero collared waiter jacket that we bought from the Queen Mary when it ported in Long Beach, and thought I was to cool to be true. There with my parents, who took me, lol. Had some very hip parents, who got into the SoCal music of the times. Was blessed to have seen many bands live during that period (1965-1969), will never forget it. Thanks, Mom and Dad!!!
My brother's favorite song. He passed away not quite 2 years ago at age 41. Now everytime I hear this song, I get teary with a smile on my face. He would sing this all the time at the top of his lungs. So, it brings back good memories.
The first CD I ever owned as a kid was CCR. We listened to CCR when I was in Civil Air Patrol.We listened to CCR when I was in tech school after basic training. We listened to CCR when I was deployed to Afghanistan. I listen to CCR now.
When I first heard bad moon rising in American werewolf in London the song blew me away. Then my uncle let me borrow a ccr tape. Ccr has been my favorite band ever since. John is a living legend.
I saw an interview with him. He had some demons and addictions that had taken over his life for a long time . He met a woman that helped him change that. She got him to quit drinking and living in the past. He had a public tv special a few years ago. I sat down to watch a few minutes and before I realized it I had watched the entire two hour show. Every minute was entertaining. A true American legend and Rock n Roll royalty.
I so love that song. It's one of those songs that no matter what you're doing or where you're going, you kind of stop and listen to a portion of it. It's got an impactful emotional grab. He's still got it. Maybe not the young 20s and 30s voice, but still sounds like the lead singer for CCR. ❤️
You were my dad's idol, and you still got it. Your songs always accompany me with great memories. My daddy is up in heaven now probably rocking right now after hearing you sing.
What great natural talent/The one the only John Forgerty/The 70's music will never fade away because of the hope and life it gave and continues to give here in 2019/
This is a real singer😊real music,❤beautiful plan and simple no tatus,holes on hes face,dress with holes on hes pants,no black sunglasses!! Hair normal!! This is a real clean cut jonky ...just grate,i love hes music
If I'm Conan, I have a hard time keeping it together there. I'd have been crying by the third strum. Instantly one of the all-time great Conan moments.
Wonderful musician, sad to think Have You Ever Seen The Rain is about CCR breaking up as a band!! John thankyou for making a difference in our lives, your music will always be a part of us
This is F*cken AMAZING!!!!!! Nothing but total respect for Creedence Clearwater, not only because their music always meant something but because bands like those don’t come around to often!!!!
One of the sweetest men I ever talked with!!! He volunteered at a veterans help line in Charleston, SC. I was pretty down, and called it. He persuaded me not to hurt myself, and get help. I did.
Wow, no rehearsals, no warm ups, 74 year old and still sound amazing. That's talent at its best.
ITs TV. you think its a coincidence that there is a guitar lying in the back...
He’s probably played that song a million times. If he doesn’t know it by now, somethings wrong
It's one of the easiest songs to play on guitar, like ever. No one needs to "warm up" or "rehearse" 'Have you ever seen the rain' lol
I will always love that song.
Una volta la musica era questa...eterna!!
Music is the closest thing we have to a time machine.
So True!!!
That's brilliant & true.

My dad introduced me to ccr when I was in middle school. Now my dad has his days numbered due to cancer. Ccr will forever hold a special place in my heart and every time I play them I will continue to think of my dad even when he's long gone from this world. Ccr fan for life.
This man doesn't even know how importan his music is in México since 60's.
My favorite part is around 39 seconds when Conan is so excited he doesn’t know what to do with his arms. You can tell he loves CCR and this was an great experience for him.
Goose bumps every time I hear him singing
One day John Fogerty will leave this world. And I'll come back to this video and cry alot harder than I did this time.
I like this song. I wrote this title on the request card for the band who were playing oldies numbers so often.😊
As a kid my weekends were at my dads house. He played CCR non stop and drank beer. I never had so much fun. I miss you dad RIP x
This is amazing. Ive been practicing this song on the guitar and harmonica lately, then THIS pops ups on my feed.
I saw CCR with the Sir Douglas Quintet, in about 1969 (?) at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium, and it was GREAT. I wore a Nero collared waiter jacket that we bought from the Queen Mary when it ported in Long Beach, and thought I was to cool to be true. There with my parents, who took me, lol. Had some very hip parents, who got into the SoCal music of the times. Was blessed to have seen many bands live during that period (1965-1969), will never forget it. Thanks, Mom and Dad!!!
you nevern know how everything is ngonna work out? I love this song.
My brother's favorite song. He passed away not quite 2 years ago at age 41. Now everytime I hear this song, I get teary with a smile on my face. He would sing this all the time at the top of his lungs. So, it brings back good memories.
What a voice. You're still killing it.
The first CD I ever owned as a kid was CCR. We listened to CCR when I was in Civil Air Patrol.We listened to CCR when I was in tech school after basic training. We listened to CCR when I was deployed to Afghanistan. I listen to CCR now.
This...unbelievable. so fortunate to be able to experience this. Thank you for posting
When I first heard bad moon rising in American werewolf in London the song blew me away. Then my uncle let me borrow a ccr tape. Ccr has been my favorite band ever since. John is a living legend.
I saw an interview with him. He had some demons and addictions that had taken over his life for a long time . He met a woman that helped him change that. She got him to quit drinking and living in the past. He had a public tv special a few years ago. I sat down to watch a few minutes and before I realized it I had watched the entire two hour show. Every minute was entertaining. A true American legend and Rock n Roll royalty.
I so love that song. It's one of those songs that no matter what you're doing or where you're going, you kind of stop and listen to a portion of it. It's got an impactful emotional grab. He's still got it. Maybe not the young 20s and 30s voice, but still sounds like the lead singer for CCR. ❤️
And his/CCR's other song about rain is just as good! th-cam.com/video/lIPan-rEQJA/w-d-xo.html
@Matthew, NOT if you are from Vancouver like I am!!! Yes, I HAVE seen the rain!!!! I actually have WEBBED FEET from 40 years there!
I think he's even better now
You were my dad's idol, and you still got it. Your songs always accompany me with great memories.
My daddy is up in heaven now probably rocking right now after hearing you sing.
Arthur Gunn made John Fogerty proud. One of the greatest songs of all time.
Agree
Daniel Melo that guy is a legend dude. These Nepalese people.
I LIKED Arthur GUNN'S MUCH BETTER, IT'S IS RASPY IN HIS VOICE.
It's amazing to see.. how one Nepalese guy came up in American idol, sang this song, and made this evergreen song alive again. 💙
@@sudeshjoshi7190 They can close up shop, American Idol has a winner, "Arthur Gunn!"
What great natural talent/The one the only John Forgerty/The 70's music will never fade away
because of the hope and life it gave and continues to give here in 2019/
This is a real singer😊real music,❤beautiful plan and simple no tatus,holes on hes face,dress with holes on hes pants,no black sunglasses!! Hair normal!! This is a real clean cut jonky ...just grate,i love hes music
This man needs no backup, no auto tune. He is just pure music genius.
Yeah, unfortunately today his voice is not that great as it was, you can see that his voice got older, but goddamn this man is a legend...
I think he's one of the most underrated songwriters/guitarists. So many amazing songs. A lot of them are perfect for summer
Gotta love John Fogerty a living legend that gets better with age God Bless Him.
John is a legend.!
If I'm Conan, I have a hard time keeping it together there. I'd have been crying by the third strum. Instantly one of the all-time great Conan moments.
He delivered the performance of a lifetime. Bless him.!
John is part of my youth. Glad to hear he's alive and well. God bless you!!
What a cool dude....have you ever seen the rain...
Not old enough to have seen CCR in concert but have seen John twice in concert. Legend.
The man has still got it. FOGERTY FOREVER!
Wonderful musician, sad to think Have You Ever Seen The Rain is about CCR breaking up as a band!! John thankyou for making a difference in our lives, your music will always be a part of us
I can't get enough of CCR blasting on repeat in my car every single day! Mr. Fogerty still sounds absolutely incredible! ❤️😘🫡
Absolute definition of legend ..
Crazy how things have changed so much.
John has aged so well, much respect to him and the creedence crew !
This is F*cken AMAZING!!!!!! Nothing but total respect for Creedence Clearwater, not only because their music always meant something but because bands like those don’t come around to often!!!!
At 74 he sounds great. He started right up, no practice no nothing. He has more talent in one finger than most musicians have on one hand.
One of the sweetest men I ever talked with!!! He volunteered at a veterans help line in Charleston, SC. I was pretty down, and called it. He persuaded me not to hurt myself, and get help. I did.
No auto tune needed. Wow
A Timeless classic. Thank you for uploading this.
Holy shit! This caught me off guard, brought me to tears.
Man his voice. Amazing performance every one who witnessed was blessed 🤌🏼
man, he can still sing so good.
