A classic.

I always play it on the jukebox because it's always available.

Ah hoid it through the grapevine...

Not crap but no improvement on the original.

The best cover CCR ever did.

Maybe the best song CCR ever did.

Fogerty's lead lines on this are understated and glorious.

The third best version of this song after the original and the Slits' cover.

The Crust Brothers did a decent cover of this too.

My favorite cover. If there's a band that you can say I was raised on, considering how non-musical my family is in general, I'd have to say it was Creedence. I never get tired of listening to this in its entirety.

there is a great part in this song where the guitars drop into feeback mode and a organ meshes with fogertys voice, just going "WHOOOOOOOOOOOO" that part of the song is mind blowing...

Heard this for the first time a few years back on a plane - it was piped into the radio system on board and I just loved it.

I could've swore Hipster Air folded back in 94.
