YouTube link Fortunate Son
YouTube link Effigy
YouTube link Have You ever seen the rain
YouTube link Ramble Tamble
YouTube link Will anyone nominate a song from Mardi Gras? I'm guessing no – unless they are just contrary…. |

Fortunate Son Their all good. John Fogerty, what a talent! |

Tough one – on balance, Bad Moon Rising with Fortunate Son as a runner up |

"Down on the Corner" was the first one I heard on the radio. Just blew me away. John Fogerty is a national treasure. Such a dynamic range in his voice. He can go from sinister to joyful and everything in between. |

I'll second Willie and the Po Boys. But most songs are great. I still have all the original albums. |

I don't think I can name just one. That choice would change day by day, depending on mood, or exposure, or simple whimsy. I could name a half-dozen faves, but never just one. |

Lookin' Out My Back Door. Agree with Old Contemptible. Fogerty's voice was a musical instrument itself. |

Fortunate Son YouTube link That brings me back to the college library, reading the NYTimes for our draft numbers. I ain't no Senator's son, but I got 350. |

Hell, I'll vote for them all! And I hope everyone else dies too! Let's warp the space/time continuum and carry this poll into infinite reruns! |

Fortunate Son. Holds a special place in my memory and as valid today as it was when written. |

Bad moon rising. Fortunate son as a close second. |
| John the OFM | 02 Dec 2025 9:23 p.m. PST |
"Bad Moon Rising" is another tie-in with the "debate" over An American Werewolf in London. |
