Default Creedence

Lookin' Out My Backdoor just came up on my playlist, and suddenly it hit me, like lightning from above, or at least a hard-shelled bug flying at high speed while you're going the opposite direction with your head out the window of a car going an even higher speed. I don't know you people's opinions on CCR. How can I judge you without this vital piece of information? So far, I've managed to find a way. But this will certainly help with my judging.

Please follow up your vote with a post, the substance of which is entirely up to you.

I think the poll was just a bit little loaded, but I voted the option that was closest to my actual opinion.

I should have made this public for more effective judging, but that's not how democracy works.

Democracy is overrated.

meh...They were most definitely part of my formative years. I think I may have been overexposed, though. They're....okay...in small doses.

I was far more impressed with The Band.

I really enjoy Bad Moon Rising, but think Down on the Corner, or whatever it's called, is one of the worst songs ever.

Overall, they're enjoyable.

Probably...but if it is, I think putting me on it would be redundant.

I think I went to Chuck's shitlist when I pointed out that the entire nation of France had a national celebration the day after he left the country.

You want a feud, g man? 'Cause if you wanna have a feud, we can have a feud. I even know the guys that make the moonshine, if we need a corporate sponsor.

CCR is/was one of my favorites. I still listen to them on CD/tape/radio every now and then.

I think that's "Willy and the Poor Boys", but I'm not really sure. I think "Proud Mary" is difficult to listen to, as I've heard it a brazillion times and in innumerable covers by the likes of Tina Turner and company. When it comes on the radio, I'll switch to accordian music, rather than listen to it again.

Feud? No, man...I don't wanna feud; I'm a peaceful guy.

Besides, it was the truth and nuthin' but the truth, so help me dog.

CCR was a very good band, but I don't know if I'd call them one of the greatest in the history of music...

ccr is ok, not too bad, but part of my distaste for ccr is growing up in redneck land where every dipshit loves ccr, acdc and skynnard
