I was there in the 60’s and this was THE preeminent protest song. Buffalo Springfield had Stephen Stills and Neil Young, later part of the super group CSN&Y and that group did another protest song, OHIO. There were other protest songs by some great folks like Peter, Paul & Mary. I was there then and I’m still around now and I can tell you this present we are in is much, much more scary than the 1960’s/70’s. Thank you for playing.

Written by Buffalo Springfield guitarist Stephen Stills, this song was not about anti-war gatherings, but rather youth gatherings protesting anti-loitering laws, and the closing of the West Hollywood nightclub Pandora's Box. Stills was not there when they closed the club, but had heard about it from his bandmates.

My interpretation of this is that it takes place in the 1960's and it's about the youth protesting the war in Vietnam. That, btw, is Stephen Stills singing lead. Stephen Stills was inspired to write the song because of the Sunset Strip curfew riots in Los Angeles in November 1966, a series of early counterculture-era clashes that took place between police and young people on the Sunset Strip in Hollywood, Thanks for reacting to this song. Take care.

Hi guys, hope you are doing good. Yes, this was absolutely in Forrest Gump. It is practically in every Vietnam era movie. I suppose this would be considered "hippy" music, but I like it. Speaking of Vietnam era music there is a song by Country Joe Mcdonald called "Feel Like i'm Fixing to Die Rag" - played at Woodstock '69. Just a heads up, it does have some cussing but this song was a hippy anthem during the Vietnam war years.

Y'all can give extra props to the extraordinary talent of Dallas native, Stephen Stills. He has had a stellar solo career after being in two famous groups of the sixties, Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, and Nash (with the sometimes member Neil Young). He has a easily recognizable voice, which is accompanied by his soulful acoustic guitar. Please react to more songs from SS - you will be blown away by this man's talent.

People in the streets during 60s were protesting both sides of the war in Vietnam and people were marching for civil rights. This song is about the protests and how each side felt that they were right instead of finding common ground. The police were quick to usher protesters to jail or use the billy club. I was there in the 60s, but I was serving in the Navy deployed outside the country but home in spirit. When you are a thousand miles away from home the noise in the streets of home are amplified in your head.

A lot of this was about Vietnam and civil rights protests. The heat was the police and the man was the police/government. Battle lines. Vietnam protesters against the police. A lot of unrest. I was 8 or 9 when this song came out. The people supporting the war were parents. There were a lot of working class people. Patriotic. Children who suffered throw the Great Depression and lived through WWII. Believed their government. Working class kids were drafted. Back then only well off people went to college. They gave a college exemption to avoid the draft. See CCR’s “Fortunate Son”. It was hard. As a kid I found it all frightening. Three assassinations from the time I was 5 until I was 10. My family was working class. My brother didn’t have a choice. Vietnam vets were literally spit on when they came back. By college kids. Today those college kids run things and send a new generation off to war. I’m the first one in my family to go to college. My brother and I are anti war now. It’s just a money maker. Politicians and military industrial complex get rich. It’s funny. Today the establishment is made up of those 60s college kids. The working class people don’t trust the establishment. Why would they? Those of us who came from working class backgrounds, even if we make good money, don’t trust the establishment. They’re still the heat.

Stephen Stills and Neil Young (although I am not a real Young fan) were both in this iconic group. They went on to form the supergroup Crosby, Stills, Nash & (sometimes) Young. Another HUGE protest song was written by them. "Ohio" is in protest of the Kent State massacre where members of The National Guard shot and killed 4 students and wounded 9 for their protest, of The US expansion of the Viet Nam war into Cambodia, calling it a riot (Which it wasn't. It was just loud and college administrators didn't like it. They were all unarmed, unless you count their picket signs as weapons). Two of the students killed, Sandra Scheuer and William Schroeder were not even involved in the protest and just happened to be in the area as they moved from class to class. It was a pivotal point in history because it galvanized a lot of the general public to begin calling US policy into question and ended up leading to the withdrawal of our troops a few years later (things like that take time for the pressure to make itself known, especially to the military minds).

People attribute this as a protest song against the war in Vietnam, but it was actually written during the Sunset Strip Curfew protests (Sunset Blvd. in West Hollywood, CA) and riots of 1966. The city had imposed a 10p.m. curfew for teenagers and they rebelled. The song was written by Stephen Stills. You might recognize his name because of the group Crosby, Stills & Nash that formed up two years later in 1868. One of my lasting memories, that my kids and others since my 'boomer' generation do not understand, were the public service ads that came on television every night at 10 p.m. asking, "It's 10 p.m., do you know where your children are?"

This a classic rock "sleeper." Stephen Stills wrote this one when there were mandatory curfews in California in the late 60"s....mostly in place due to Vietnam War protests. I think the lyrics referred to people being beat down or hosed by the police. "Hey Everybody, What's that sound....." Overall a well done representation of the times we lived.

The song came out in 1966 when protests against the Vietnam war were starting to increase as well as protests/marches etc for gay rights (which were non-existent) and when the Black Panthers started to become strong community activists. The Civil Rights protest/marches in the late 50’s and early 60’s inspired more people to become involved and fight for various causes. The song grew out of all that. A year later there were the riots in Chicago at the Democratic convention, and then a couple of years later, the Kent State killings which inspired the song ”Ohio” by some of the same band members who had been in the Buffalo Springfield.

I was 7 years old when I first heard this song. It was on The Muppet Show and they made it about hunting.

74 year old man here.... My draft number was 69... This was about an era. Vietnam, resistance, and an unjust war. The summer of protests tried to save some of us.

There is a cover of this song done by blues man Tab Benoit. It's excellent. Check it out some time. I always loved this song. One of the best "war protest" songs from my childhood.

From one who was there: It's not cheering, it's protesting. The "hooray for our side' part is a bit sarcastic: "Yes!" vs. "No!" As the Who said, "Meet the new boss; just the same as the old boss." He's saying, Wake up; pay attention; notice! Buffalo Springfield was composed of: Stephen Stills (vocals, lead guitar, and writer/singer of this song), who is the Stills in Crosby, Stills, and Nash; Neil Young (lead guitar, vocals), of, well, Neil Young; Jim Messina, later of Loggins and Messina; Richie Furay, (vocals and keyboards), later of Poco; and a drummer. The lyrics here are about what comes to its culmination in "Ohio", by Neil Young and CSNY a few years later. "The heat" is the police, the Man, who will "take you away". This was an anthem of the time.

Keep deep diving into the 60’s and 70’s music. Imo it’s the best eras of music - to this day🔥

The song started out as a protest against a curfew, but morphed into an anthem about everything, civil rights, war, youth culture, etc., that was going on in the 60s.

How the title was created, they needed one more song for the record and Stephen Still s (the guitar player/vocalist) wrote this song and he was telling the group and the record company basically telling them "if we need one more song i have this one for what its worth"...there was no title so they just called the song "For What its Worth"
