Das war meine Zeit - CCR. Was haben wir diesen Song rauf und runter gespielt. Klasse!

@garystolworthy3365

Who doesn't like Fogerty??? Nobody comes close to him. Others have covered his songs like proud Mary, but nobody does it like he does. He was and is the Meat and potatos of Credence, he wrote, performed and did all the vocals of all the songs

@angelaallen340

What energy

@felixmadison5736

THIS SONG ROCKS, JUST LIKE JOHN!!!! If this song doesn't get you dancing around the house nothing will! Just imagine the big hole there would be in rock n roll history without John Fogerty!

@shaunatkinson22

I'm a massive Quo fan and this is one of my favourites. I like this version as well. A great song

@howardbrown671

John fogerty wrote it put music to it Status Quo did a cover.

@garystolworthy3365

This is not a version of the song, he wrote it and recorded it. An artist can't cover his own song???

@nickdrake5611

​@@garystolworthy3365 For those who don't know, he actually wasn't allowed to play his stuff for decades due to a well-known legal dispute against Fantasy Records. Meanwhile, Quo did a very decent cover which was oftenly seen as a reivindication of Fogerty's breached rights.

@lukagovorcin3610

THAT IS HIS SONG NOT STATUS QUO! BUT THIS SONG CAN NEVER GIVE YOU DEPRESSION ONLY FANTASTIC SPIRIT FROM THE HEART ❤️ BUMPS

@gibbyschannel1182
