I have seen many reactions that young people make for one of these bands from the 60's or 70's and they almost always are amazed at how great those bands were. If I could offer what I think is the reason those OLD bands were so great. First, they LOVED the music and they LOVED making music and they were willing to practice HOURS every day to get their songs down as perfect as they could get them. Many of today's singers get started, not because they love the music, but because they want to be a CELEBRITY! These old bands got started because they loved the music and it was almost an obsession with them to make music. Second, when these bands were recording, they did not have endless tracks where if the guitarist made a mistake they could just redo HIS track. Nope. They had ONE track so if the guitarist made a mistake they had to redo EVERYONE'S part and just redo the whole thing. This put a great deal of pressure on everyone in the band to get it right! And obviously because they loved the music they were willing to put in the practice necessary to "get it right". My father was not professional but he sang in a gospel quartet in his college and he told me they would not sing a new song in church or on the radio until they had first practiced the song at least ONE HUNDRED times. They were just a college quartet but they refused to perform in front of anyone until they had the song as perfect as they could get it. If I could compare that to how some people feel about singing in public today... there is a man who sang solos in my church and very often I would see him select a song from the church hymnal as the congregation was gathering for the start of service and then he would get up and sing it, not having practiced it even ONE time! Obviously, his thinking was extremely different from the thinking of my father and it made me cringe to see how casual he was about singing in a church service. I might add that his refusal to be bothered to practice his song was very obvious as he started singing. The key was often too high or too low for him. He sometimes got his timing wrong. He quite often stumbled over the words. He sometimes got the tune slightly wrong. It is undoubtedly because of the way I was raised but I would sit there thinking, "Dude, if you can't be bothered to practice, DON'T SING!"

They perform it competently but it's got none of the soul and passion that makes the CCR sound - but that was from their last album when they were on the verge of an acrimonious break-up so that might have something to do with it.

‘Midnight Special’ was first recorded in print in 1905 and there was a couple of versions released before his. More than likely it was originally written 10-20 years before the 1900s and by a black inmate that died in prison and sadly we will probably never know his real identity.

I think you're quickly discovering that while you might like one song better than another, Jamel, there is no such thing as a bad CCR song. It just doesn't exist.

If I am not mistaken, it’s a song about being in jail, I believe in Sugarland, Texas. If the train that ran by the prison at midnight shone its light on you, it meant you were getting paroled. That’s why John kept asking to have the “ever-loving light shine on me”.

Where do people get this from? It was not written by him and was recorded 10 years before he got to it.

If the light of the Midnight Special (Train) shined on you in your prison cell, it meant you were supposed to be freed soon.

You just got several thousand people to sing along with you! I must say, it pains me to think you’ve lived this long, never hearing this song before . This was the theme song for a great TV show, hosted by Wolfman Jack. One of my most treasured memories from college in the early 70s was getting together with my friends to watch that show every week.

I'm so glad to hear this reaction!! I grew up listening to CCR and love John Fogerty's talent. He was the backbone of CCR. I got to meet him during a concert about 10 years ago, I was on the front row and had written a letter to him in large letters and just laid it on the stage in front of him and he walked over and stopped the show to talk to me. He even gave me the guitar pick he had just used!! Great moment for me!!!

The talent of the band was John Fogerty. The proof was in their last album where John let them do what they wanted because before on all of the other albums John was like a mini dictator and the band thought they could make just as good a album as the rest of them. Needless to say it was a flop. They ended up breaking up and the split saw the brothers never making up with Tom Fogerty passing away. There is a youtube video of John explaining his side of the breakup. These people even sued John for sounding to much like himself. He won the lawsuit. Luckily John is still around and has had a couple of videos with him playing with his kids at home during this stay at home times. You should check out some of his Solo career hits like Centerfield, Old Man Down the Road. There are others less known.

CCR is close to my heart. They were my Dad’s favorite band, so the music was a staple in my home growing up. As Long as I can see the Light is my absolute favorite. They’ve got soul.

Bring back Steely Dan brother!

Your look when he said Ever lovin' was fun. I laughed out loud. Hard to do house work when I can watch you instead !

Truly keeping great music alive. This is an old song! Based on an urban legend about life in prison. Supposedly if the headlamp of the train (the midnight special) shone on you through the bars of your window, it meant you would be released soon. BTW, have you looked into an artist named Huddie "Lead Belly" Ledbetter?

Reminds me of my grandfather too, bro. He was from Louisiana and CCR was one of his faves!!! I can’t ever hear Creedence without thinking of him. And that’s a great thing! 🙌🏻❤️🎶

Please please please do “As long as I can see the light”!!! It’s my favorite CCR song and I know you’ll love it!

My uncles , who were bikers, always played CCR..Everytime I hear any song by CCR..reminds me of them

CCR had so many hits during their heyday out performing such greats as the Beatles and Elvis Presley on the music charts in the late 60's and early 70's.

Wait until he finds out "Proud Mary" Isn't Tina Turner's.

Love the reactions, CCR is one of the greats! "Proud Mary" "Lookin' Out My Back Door" "Run Through the Jungle" "Who'll Stop the Rain" "Green River" "Have You Ever Seen the Rain" and "It Came Out of the Sky" are some favorites from them, though it's difficult to narrow it down even that far, they're just good.

my late dad used to sing this around the house when I was growing up and this is my fav version of it good for your Grandpa wish it was like that again
