[@andrewborody]

In my opinion, this is one of the best sounding songs I've heard you sing. Voice fits so well for that style.

[@kentamplin]

Andrew Borody Thanks Andrew! :-)

[@Thumpr110]

I have to agree! I keep coming back and listening to this over and over. Very seldom do you get to hear someone cover a song and be better than the original.

[@kentamplin]

Thanks, Tyler!

[@jbm8444]

It was good and the music was excellent but i still prefer John Fogerty.

[@reborn3288]

The song fits your voice perfectly, Ken.

[@MrAcmove]

Not only can NO ONE seriously cover this: VERY FEW have the “soul” to passionately punch out such a powerful emotional performance with room to spare! Till now in the history of mankind one person can gut this out with the CORRECT tone / pitch / timing / and clarity…… John Fogerty! Now Introducing the ONLY OTHER individual capable Of pulling it off: It’s a bird - it’s a plane it’s ….. Mr. Ken Tamplin. Epic respect to you Sir! 😮 Fortunate Son is the Mount Everest of underrated vocal challenges. Ken continues to conquer!

[@NRGpony]

I mean, it didn't teach me shit but dope cover none the less

[@PabloPazosGutierrez]

true

[@TheKer7]

That part is up to you. Maybe learn to learn? An experienced, maybe trainer or an adept observer notices many things about this performance that might lead them to the right direction. Aha, now I listened to the end as well, well... take a singing course, maybe CVT or what have you, you will start to notice things. I got a few tips for sure. My band wants to cover this... oof...

[@tomkearney1829]

Ken , well done you nailed it spot on you are a fantastic singer and John Fogerty just has to be proud of your version of this great song.

[@GoldStandardGames]

John F had one of the most powerful male voice in rock!

[@kipponi]

This is hard song to sound right. Of course Ken did it again. I like this kind of strong singing.

You are a teacher. Some people specialize. You know how to show what can be done. Anyone can learn by your method. I am a musician, and I am impressed by your versatility. Everyone's usually focused on only one or two things. But you can do it all with aplomb. Bravo and thanks!

Ken, you add soul to your chops.... Heard a tune today..you would totally 🎸 it.. ..a little Deringer...' Rock and Roll HCoo... You have funk and soul..Edgar Winters would totally agree..Rock It! :)

[@kentamplin]

I'm actually quite fond of soul music, and have a lot of recorded soul songs. What you're talking about seems more like blues rock, and I also have some material in that vein. Not those specific song. They ARE cool.

[@jimmio3727]

Needs more voice box destruction to get his sound imo, but fantastic as always!

[@1wingedangelff7]

Great video Ken! You sounded great! I have a question about your pro bundle singing course. I was wondering if it covers how to develop a lower, bass range. I know a lot of people want to learn how to sing higher ( I do too) but I would love to learn how to increase my lower range. I plan on buying to course regardless, but I would love it if that was included! Thank you for the time that you put into all of your videos! You've inspired me to become a singer!

[@italianstugats]

Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy Man, I really know you know what you are talking about. I'm from Brazil, Rio, 27. I sing every single day since Im a small child and study singing, but there's something I really cannot understand...For exemple Eddie Vedder on Dissident and Given to Fly...I just can't sound like that grasp or even clean, I dont understand if this is head or high chest....mas I just can't, can you help or make a demo of these songs????? You are the ONLY teacher who CAN REALLY SING...

[@melindanelson7111]

[@flamingo8445]

Hey Ken! I only want to ask your advice. Forgive me if it sounds critical, but your vocal manner of that song is different from original. John Fogherty didn't use so much tension and his manner wasn't so loud and heavy metal) Well, the question still stays. How to sing with that raspy effect and power but relaxed at the same time? It's the same about Bruce Springsteen for instance. He does it so naturaly and easy.

[@kentamplin]

Went to buy the original song from iTunes and figured I'd do a search on your name and sure enough, you've got this cover on there. I actually prefer your cover to the original; was totally rocking out while shooting for some Strava segments on my bike lol. Awesome rendition! :)

[@guilhermebortoletto582]

Wow! Ken, I think you're amazing. I love singing, but just for me. I've tried to learn how to sing but my voice is very thin and really annoying haha. I'm really busy right now but I want to buy your course as soon as I can. Sometimes I doubt when people say everyone can sing. My voice is a mess, I hope it can get better with your help. What do you think about Tobias Sammet's from Edguy and Avantasia singing? His voice looks also very thin and nasal, but not as thin as mine. Do you think it's possible for a person with a voice like this to sing?

[@kentamplin]

Guilherme Bortoletto The only way I can really answer that question is for you to send me a sample of your signing. [e-mail]

[@ivanaf8790]

I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE IT 😯😯😯 I thought it was not posible hitting the notes the way John Fogerty does, especially in this song. What other surprises in store for us learners 😃?

When you go to a concert and one particular band sing, you hear their style and you get used to it. But, Ken, you are probably the most versatile singer I've ever heard and you honestly need to do a concert showcasing that versatility.

[@kentamplin]

Wow! Thank you, Deepak! 😊

[@JeffBarkerFLH]

I'd rate myself as a beginner, been singing 'properly' (as in, actually putting the effort in to learning) for just over a year and we do this song in the band I'm in - we're not great, so not gigging yet, but we're getting there. Anyway, although this song is well within my range (I can easily sing most RHCP tracks), I always seem to struggle with it - and have yet to learn the art of getting that 'gritty' sort of texture to my voice. Ken, I know you'll reply "this is covered in my course', but are there any hints or tips you can provide to a hard up beginner on how to start to get this sort of sound? Even if it's just links to other videos you've done, etc? Cheers in advance!

[@kerrydangerfield6528]

Fantastic 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@kentamplin]

Thanks, Kerry!

[@chukpic]

Hey Ken thanks for the videos I discovered them this afternoon and I am hooked. Don't you think John Fogerty is one of the most underrated male vocals of our time? He has this distortion that sounds very mature and almost husky but just comes so naturally and easily, such a pure soul sound and he had it at a young age (almost Joe Cocker-esque). Is this a fake distortion technique or do you think he was straining his voice? I can do it but I don't want to push it til it hurts. Also, 'm just gonna ask whats on everyone's mind, were you at Woodstock 69? Love to you brother your soul shines through your voice

[@voodoomotion5855]

Kudos!

[@kentamplin]

Thank you!

[@voodoomotion5855]

You're welcome Ken. I'm not a professional singer but really enjoy karaoke with friends. I tend to imitate a singer's voice, rather than find my own and struggle when rock songs suddenly need a lot of power, so your training really helps! Punk suits me ok, I can manage some Green Day, Pistols and Ramones, also love the Foo Fighters and recently attempted Nirvana's Lithium. It's boring singing the same old safe easier songs, so I'm really hoping with practice I can better manage rock, which I'm more passionate about. You sound amazing on this, it really suits your voice, great meaningful lyrics too! Keep up the great work!
