During the Vietnam War, if the teenagers were from wealthy, influential families then they didn't get drafted, go to war in a foreign country, and very likely never come home again. I'm simplifying but this song reminds me of them. This was the music for them...for their time. That said I love CCR's music.

My father back in the late 60s or early 70s was in college in Dublin, he was friendly with this American guy studying the same course, after a few months when they got to know each other, the American kid told him he only came to Ireland to dodge the Vietnam draft. He said he knew several guys his own age in Vietnam at that time. Imagine being a teenager in high school doing your final exams, then sent to fight in a jungle and probably get yourself killed. Because your government says so.......

Creedence was the soundtrack of the Vietnam War. They broke out in 68' with their first hit, "Suzi Q", which was an unheard-of length of 20 minutes. John Fogerty, wrote the music, sang lead vocals, played lead guitar, did all the mixing, and was later betrayed by his own band which ended Creedence.

Many think this song was about Americans being proud of the USA. Not true!! It was a protest song about rich and famous kids being able to avoid the draft during the Vietnam War. If you were poor or an average person and your draft number was called, you went to Vietnam. "Some folks are born made to wave the flag, hoo, they're red, white and blue, and when the band plays "Hail to the Chief "Ooh, they point the cannon at you." Also, "some folks inherit star-spangled eyes, hoo, they send you down to war, and when you ask 'em, "How much should we give?" Hoo, they only answer, "More, more, more, more."

It may be a long band name but most people just referred to them as CCR, or sometimes, Creedence. CCR had so many hits, and they are one of those bands where I literally like every song that they've ever done. And they always had that signature Creedence sound, but yet there's such a huge variety in not only their catalog, but in all the hits that they had as well. Run Through the Jungle has been used in lots of movies and it was a huge hit. I bet you would absolutely love it, and it's longer, so you have time to really get into the groove and the texture and the mood of it. It's a pretty intense song. For something longer still, another of their big hits, Born on the Bayou really has this relentless swampy groove to it.

Ooooo, love me some CCR. Living as a young hippie teen in 1975, 76. I was obcessed, but most of us were. They have that perfect blusey southern rock sound for a bunch of guys from California. As soon as I was old enough we protested the Vietnam War at age 13 and 14, this was big during that time. We protested mainly about the treatment our soldiers as they came home. It was appalling how they were treated after being drafted so young (from ages 15 to 20), forced into war. Most were poor kids forced to fight in something most didnt believe in, then came home to the worst abuse, calling them baby k!llers, shunning them, etc. I salute the Vets. Thanx so much, Peace

A lot of CCR songs have appeared in films, though "Fortunate Son" is probably the one used the most (especially in Vietnam War-based movies). Drummer Kenny Aronoff said when he was a kid reading a Hulk comic Credence came on the radio & he thought if The Hulk sang that's what he'd sound like! Years later Kenny got to record on Forgerty's "Blue Moon Swamp" album and toured with John between gigs with John Mellencamp and Bob Seger in the mid 90's. Forgerty's "The Old Man Down The Road" is an awesome song from his solo career.

My younger brother was in the last year for the draft, but no one was called. A friend’s draft number was 1, from the high school graduating class of 1970. He enlisted to avoid the Vietnam war. Another friend’s brother came home from Vietnam and committed suicide. It was a hard time to be a young man. Listen to Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young’s song: Ohio. It’s about a demonstration against the Vietnam War at Kent State University. Four students killed when the National Guard opened fire on the protesters.

The members of Creedence Clearwater Revival were from El Cerrito, California, across the bay from San Francisco. Their sound is called "swamp rock," though none of them was from the south. John Fogerty, the lead guitarist and vocalist, affected a Louisiana accent. The song is about the Vietnam War and the draft. Military service was supposed to be universal, but the sons of the wealthy and well-connected were protected from having to serve. It was mainly the poor and middle class who fought and died in that war. CCR were a hit machine from 1968 through 1972, when they broke up because they weren't getting along with each other. Somehow during that time they never had a #1 hit, though they had several #2 hits. Some of their best: Proud Mary Bad Moon Rising Green River Down on the Corner Travelin' Band Who'll Stop the Rain Up Around the Bend Run Through the Jungle Lookin' Out My Back Door Long As I Can See the Light Have You Ever Seen the Rain Lodi I Heard It Through the Grapevine The Midnight Special I Put a Spell on You Cotton Fields

Greetings again from San Francisco! “Fortunate Son” is one of, if not THE greatest anti-Viet Nam war protest songs, EVER!!! It’s usually found accompanying film taken from UH-1D helicopters, often from a door gunner’s point of view. This song also accompanies film of napalm being dropped on jungles and hillsides. The point of the song is that if you came from money, it was easy to avoid being drafted and sent to Viet Nam. College deferments were easily obtained, and since poor or average middle class kids were likely not attending college or university, they were the first to go. Donald Trump got out of being drafted because he allegedly had bone spurs. Presumably from playing too much tennis. How many poor kids play tennis? “Fortunate Son,” along with all of CCR’s albums, was recorded at the Fantasy Records studio in Berkeley, California. This was also the recording location for Jouney’s “Escape” album and Green Day’s “Dookie” album. According to Wikipedia, Fantasy Studios permanently closed in 2018. Sad. Such music history should live forever. Thanks for checking out the music that I grew up with.

Fortunate Son is up there with Floyd's Us & Them as a war and greed diatribe, stunning song, voice, vibe and groove. Fogerty's a sodding genius and shockingly underrated guitar player.

This song was played in many Vietnam movies. When Clinton was elected, Fogerty played this at the inauguration. So many of us of that era reacted so deeply, friends kids didn’t get it . Culturally significant song

At the time of the Vietnam war the wealthy could send their sons to colleges and get a deferment, but the average and poorer families couldn't because they couldn't afford college. All men over a certain age still to this day have to register for the draft. Our military is now all volunteer. This has been one of the go to songs for just about all the movies about that time period and truly reflects all the emotions and feelings that were going on then.

Mollyboy, imagine being a kid in the 60's and 70's. Am radio, 3 or 4 tv channels, great music like this that you could only hear if you were lucky enough to be near a radio or in the car when it came on. No stereo, just mono. Those were the best times. Today with instant everything, nothing is really appreciated like it was back then.

This song came out the year after I graduated from high school. It was close to East Los Angeles in CA, mostly blue-collar, and our area was heavily Hispanic. Most of the boys from my graduating class were immediately drafted, and few came back home. The song was about the lives we lived, and the people we knew.
