THANK YOU! This isn't a hugely famous song, as it's their last single, and the last song on their last album (which had problems), but it's beautiful. John Fogerty was going through a divorce, his brother Tom had quit the band, and he was feuding with the rhythm section as the group was about to break up. And so he wrote this wonderful reflective jewel. And exit CCR. Thank you for all you gave us.
@@shyman99 Creedence was just getting into super-sophisticated writing and playing here. If only, IF ONLY they had expanded the band instead of imploding and doing this album. With the add of a new guitarist and maybe keys player, the seventh album might've been a double-header of amazing music.
my dad was never there and i only realized how badly that messed me up when i got much older. People, talk to your kids about life and be real about it, you have no idea how much of a difference it makes.
This is my favorite CCR song. So soulful. So touching. It's about how we are told that we will understand later, but that understanding never happens. You don't get over not understanding what is happening between your parents, your father leaving you, your father not being around when you are born and growing up, your father leaving you just like his father left him. Being told to be a man doesn't fix those things, it just tells us to repress our feelings because we just aren't mature enough (but those are lies we are told or tell ourselves).
This song was about how he had to grow up without his dad. Then his own son had to grow up without him. Such a sad situation that many families have been though. God have mercy on us!!
Absolutely one of my favorite CCR songs. The message is so clear and poignant. He ends up telling his son the same thing his dad told him. "Someday you'll understand" but "someday never comes"....some things you will never understand.
Ccr was my pa's fav band and when he passed i went into his garage turned on the cd player and out blasted this song. It broke me. Sonded like my fathers last bit of advice.
But next to the Bigg Boss, you gotta love. You gotta love squirrelers. I know I love a good squirrel. Or I say they say lock the squirrel or 2 I had a sound called squirrel or squirrel or in a big bowl. That's some good I see daisy music brother
I first heard this after our first son was born. The lesson of the song has stuck with me ever since. Moms and Dads…when life gets busy remember it’s the time with your kids you’ll remember in the end not the time you spent at work. Teach them by being there so they do the same for their kids…
I seen John the other night (Fri. Nice 15) here in San Bernardino CA. THE Celebration Tour. Sounded great, running all over the stage. And sounded MORE Southern than before...
Mr John Fogerty inducted my dad's band Gene Vincent and the Blue Caps into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. My dad was the drummer of the blue caps, Dickie Harrell years later John was at Virginia Beach Amphitheater when he was in concert the band went backstage and made him honorary member of the blue caps he was very gracious, classy, he was an old soul, a great guy!
Fogerty wrote Someday Never Comes and other songs of CCR that are awesome-- Suzie Q, Who'll Stop the Rain, Lookin' Out My Back Door, I Put a Spell on You and Have You Ever Seen the Rain. John Fogerty of CCR wrote all of those songs except for Suzie Q and I Put a Spell on You. Fogerty also wrote Proud Mary and Born on the Bayou. One of rock's geniuses. Thank you for this reaction!!
I like a good squirrel, bonobo since I've had a squirrel, I might have to go play the Ic Daisy song called squirreller. I love a squirrel. I don't want to I like to some. Now I love that song by hayley sleep square learn😊😅😅
You gotta love big balls. BI GBA LLS big balls. I got big balls. She's got big balls. Wake up big balls. I've everybody's got big bottles. But I got the biggest balls of them. All big balls, that's a song. It's a ACDC classic Bigg Boss. Everybody loves big bows
I really enjoy it when you review my favorite rock band of all time: Creedence Clearwater Revival. I also enjoy reading other people's comments about their love of this band. I was in high school during the height of the disco era of the late 1970s, and I never had a single friend or acquaintance who shared my enthusiasm for CCR - mostly, I suppose, because they broke up several years earlier and teenagers have a short attention span. All these years later, it's nice to find a few of you kindred spirits on a page like this.
Love your comment. I first discovered CCR when I was 13 in 1970. I became completely obsessed with them especially John Fogerty, my first rock star crush. Spent countless hours listening to all their records in my bedroom on my little record player. Was super lucky to see them in concert in 1971 and also John in 1986 on his Centerfield tour. (Was front row center and got to shake his hand!) This song is one of my favorites, and I can never listen to it without shedding a few tears.
My step father served in Vietnam for the Australian army, we live in England but he was an Australian citizen in the 1960/70s and he got me into CCR. He said they always reminded him of arriving back at base after going out so there is only positive vibes that i take from them.
One of my favorite CCR songs. It is also one of a few great songs on the theme of relationship issues involving parenthood being passed down from one generation to the next. "Cats in the Cradle" is of course another one, as is "Younger Generation" by John Sebastian, just after he left the Lovin' Spoonful.
Thanks for reacting to this underrated song! I'm glad my parents never divorced and are still together. Many of my friends had a hard time dealing with their parents' arguments. The lyrics remind me of the song "Cats In The Cradle". Not wanting your children to repeat the same mistakes or not wanting to repeat your father's mistakes, yet the cycle continues. And no matter how smart someone can be, there will always be things you can't understand. I love the outro of this song.
Everybody loves big, I'll thank you. Somebody needs to react to I. C. They say big balls. I say they say Scott big balls. Oh, no I gotta song like that big balls. So I see daisy does big balls
I'll tell you what else is good of squirrel. I could use a good squirrel. But I say they say did a few squirrelers and I had a song called a squirrel or I see they say does a squirrel
Are you telling me? Are you telling me that there's some sort of SpongeBob video with AC DC doing the song? Big balls big balls and spongebob and a video?
I bought this 45 back when. CCR was my favorite band during the early 70's. My best friend bought "My Maria" at that same time. That day is cemented into my memory.
If there's one thing that Cali can be proud of is CCR is a California band! That might be all we have these days, some distant memories, but we love CCR. It's extremely insane that the Recording Industry back then got away with so much corruption ruining the lives of so many great artists.
Took my father in law to a John Fogerty concert 12 yrs ago. He was 60 at the time and he told my now wife that he had tears in his eyes at the show with all the memories of being younger when hearing all the classics and never realizing how great that music was. Later that night I asked him if I could marry his daughter. Thanks John Fogerty for making the answer “ yes “ so much easier. 💯
One of my favourite songs by CCR. I absolutely love this band. They did so many songs that just get you in the heart. The song is actually speak to you.
You missed the whole point of the song. His daddy left him and mom when he was very young. Later he had a son born to him but he wasn't even there. His mama had to be there. Then he explains that when he left he told his child the same thing his daddy told him, someday you'll understand. But the point being is you never really understand why Daddy had to go away. 🤔🥴💯😁
Great storyteller and a favorite song - Fogerty stated in 2013 that the song is about his parents' and his own divorce: "When I wrote this song, my life was pretty chaotic. I knew my marriage was going to break up. My band was falling apart. I was beginning to sense the darkness that was Fantasy Records. This song was inspired by my parents' divorce when I was a young boy and the effect it had on me. At the time, they told me, "Someday, you'll understand." The truth of this is that you never do and I found myself facing this as a parent. The irony was painful and inescapable."
CCR. Always great. Always been, always will be. You could react to any of their songs...and you'll find they are all amazing. What a band. Thanks for the reaction.
Funny note: the song Green River was written about a creek in Monticello/Winters foothills named Putah Creek, it fills the upper part of lake Berryessa and comes out of Monticello Dam, it was a place they enjoyed visiting.
❤Poor "J" he has gone through so much these pass few weeks....that these type of songs are making him emotional today. Amber. My Wonder Woman is holding things together. Hang strong guys. And KEEP THE FAITH!!! 😊
Jay, remember folks got to California from somewhere. Lots of people who left the Midwest and the Great Plains during the Dust Bowl days settled in California.
when i was young i was told i would understand when i got older but i never did that is the someday that never comes so true i hope you find the answers i never did.
Someone in the comments mentioned John Fogerty’s solo work, post CCR. I agree with their suggestion of “Sugar Sugar”. sweet song and unmistakable Fogerty pipes! 😁
There's a whole lot of great music from here in south Louisiana you guys would love. Cajun, zydeco, swamp pop etc. I was jamming Keith Frank's song "Haterz" earlier today.
Despite how fun CCR is to party and dance to, they have four or five songs that I can think of right off the top of my head that to me are profoundly sad. This song was written at a time where a lot of young men were going off to kill and be killed in vietnam. But the genius of it is that it can relate to any situation who are the father figure is largely absent. It starts when he's a little kid and at the receiving end of that, and then he collects dust and then suddenly he's barely of age and he has a kid himself right as he's going off to be away. Either going off to war and possibly dying or just going off and doing whatever his thing is. And the cycle repeats. Others that are along this line which I think are some of their most powerful songs: Hideaway (Wish I Could) Feelin' Blue Long As I Can See the Light Effigy Lodi, although that one is more up-tempo. But having played on small low-budget tours and having the van breakdown and wondering how you're going to get your money for the next gig, and maybe you get there and they don't pay you because they just blatantly break the contract because they know that they can and you don't have any other options, that sort of thing and then you always love playing in front of people but you end up in playing in front of really drunk people when you're really upset about things❤ and that song deals with that.
You guys have done a bunch of CCR but only a couple of John’s post-CCR solo works. He has an extensive catalog of his solo stuff and as one who has followed CCR and John solo extensively dating back to 1969, I think he did some of his best work after the breakup. Check out Hot Rod Heart, Rambunctious Boy, Sugar Sugar, Rock And Roll Girls and Big Train From Memphis. He’s done ten albums after CCR so there’s a lot to explore beyond these few. CCR was my very first concert and I’ve seen John at least fifteen times, amazing every time.
Let's smooth SMO OTH the saying. Singing as most excellent I have moved. Mutual samojo, the music is fantastico mucho accelerate Kentucky headquarters. They do up, they got a video. There is a video a song a big walk softly brother walks off
I'm sure you love trashy women? I know I'll like my homework and I'm gonna go bad. I'm gonna try shift, there's a good video. That's by the railroad, the Confederate railroad brother. You need to get on that train with the Tri. She. Women a Confederate railroad's got a video for trashy trashy. Butter confederate railroad
I've been a CCR fan since the 70s, but I had never heard this song until it showed up in the soundtrack to Sons of Anarchy. It's one of my favorites now.
CCR was my oldest Sister’s favorite group, I had to listen to it constantly..except when my Oldest Brother was around then I had to listen to The Beatles constantly..i was around 9 years old..young hippie I guess. Still listen to both groups. But my favorite group has always been The Bee Gees. That’s how I got hooked on your channel.
This is the last of their releases I believe, and it's a favorite of mine. Sentimental and a great melody. Nice choice. BTW, I live in central Cali and many baby boomers raised in this state are children born to parents from the Midwest or Southern states who relocated here during the Great Depression or the dust bowl. Parents who brought their mannerisms, dialects & vernacular with them. Maybe that was Fogerty's situation. Blessings ❤
One of my bands used to cover this in the 90s. To me, the father tells the son that, "some day you'll understand" as a way to placate the child. But the child grew up to know that "some day never comes". In other words, you will never reach that understanding that you were promised would come.
Thanks y'all for reacting to this one. From what I understand, it's somewhat autobiographical. I also highly recommend Long As I Can See The Light...might be his best vocals!
Fogarty did finally win against the record compony after more then 20 years. Other musicians revere him for perseverance and showed support and celebrate him for never giving up. They still do.
I see a few "Hey Tonight" recommendations here for another CCR reaction, and I have to join in that call. Rockin' from start to finish. Thanks for giving "Someday ..." a listen!
Without a doubt CCR is one of the best bands in the world! I'm also a fan of them. Fogert's voice and the sound they made is fantastic! I was born in 1977 and I really like music from the 60s/70s-- could it be because I must have lived at that time in a past life, or when the music is good it is timeless? I don't know... and I would like to suggest a song I discovered these days-- Elusive Butterfly, with Bob Lind. Hugs from Brazil!
Wow, glad you reviewed this one. This was not as big of a hit but was my favorite CCR song. Well I'm here to tell you now each and every mothers son . . . . .
THANK YOU! This isn't a hugely famous song, as it's their last single, and the last song on their last album (which had problems), but it's beautiful.
John Fogerty was going through a divorce, his brother Tom had quit the band, and he was feuding with the rhythm section as the group was about to break up. And so he wrote this wonderful reflective jewel.
And exit CCR. Thank you for all you gave us.
CCR's Sweet Hitchhiker is a rocker.
Yessss!!!
Really love the lyrics in this one. CCR def one of the best bands to ever come out of America.
so it was disappointing Fogherty left

Jon Fogarty's voice is one in One hundred thousand. Gold!
too right!!!
This is my fav of theirs. So deep. The realization that you will never understand it all and that's okay, no one does.
Amber, I think you would enjoy " As Long as I Can See the Light." It has something special in it just for you. You'll know it when you hear it.
This song cuts pretty deep for those of us who, for one reason or another, had an absent father. It does for me, anyway.
Or a distant dad. Which in turn led me to be distant with him later on.
Love CCR! Other great songs of theirs are Who'll Stop the Rain, Lodi, Proud Mary, Midnight Special, Long As I Can See the Light, and Cotton Fields.
Can't forget Tina Turner's cover of Proud Mary.
All good but Cotton Fields is my favorite CCR song ever since I was little. I do hope they do that one eventually.
This song was about how he had to grow up without his dad. Then his own son had to grow up without him. Such a sad situation that many families have been though. God have mercy on us!!
From 6:39 to the end of the song....one of my favorite fade outs of any song I've listed to over the years. So insightful to me and yet melancholy.
Absolutely one of my favorite CCR songs. The message is so clear and poignant. He ends up telling his son the same thing his dad told him. "Someday you'll understand" but "someday never comes"....some things you will never understand.
Ccr was my pa's fav band and when he passed i went into his garage turned on the cd player and out blasted this song. It broke me. Sonded like my fathers last bit of advice.
I know right?.. really deep and personal.
dad had it all on real to real and it was part of our sunday morning clean the house soundtrack
You would love big boss biatch of b I g b a l l s big boss
ACDC all right. Alright, now I say that he's saying that he's gonna take you. You're the big boss biology p a l l s
But next to the Bigg Boss, you gotta love. You gotta love squirrelers. I know I love a good squirrel. Or I say they say lock the squirrel or 2 I had a sound called squirrel or squirrel or in a big bowl. That's some good I see daisy music brother
I got a video Arsenal video out the SpongeBob. Spongebob alright spongebob a c d c in the big bows all together one video
I first heard this after our first son was born. The lesson of the song has stuck with me ever since. Moms and Dads…when life gets busy remember it’s the time with your kids you’ll remember in the end not the time you spent at work. Teach them by being there so they do the same for their kids…
“J” and Amber, I’m so glad you reacted to this song, please react to “Patches” by Clarence Carter released in 1970.
I seen John the other night (Fri. Nice 15) here in San Bernardino CA. THE Celebration Tour. Sounded great, running all over the stage. And sounded MORE Southern than before...
Love this song! Long as I Can See The Light
100 % Fantastic song.

I don't think I've heard anything from CCR that I didn't like had a party once and put on greatest hits and that party went on and on
Jay & Amber, you'll love their "Sweet Hitch Hiker" and "Travelin' Band" !!!
It Came Out Of The Sky
You can't go wrong with Creedence. Pick any of their songs and you'll have a winner. I love all of them.

Always loved this song thanks for your reactions.
This has the hallmark of a great song. I have listened to it for years and it still brings a tear to my eyes every single time.
California has a lot of country in it. Like a 100 miles, North of Los Angeles, Bakersfield, and a lot of country bands came from there.
Buc Owens and Dwight Yokum,,,, love those guys.
And Merle Haggard born just miles north of Bakersfield.
CCR just keeps bringing good memories. When things are crowding me I know what to listen to. Thanks for the good memories.
My step father served in Vietnam for the Australian army, we live in England but he was an Australian citizen in the 1960/70s and he got me into CCR. He said they always reminded him of arriving back at base after going out so there is only positive vibes that i take from them.
''Well, I'm here to tell you now each and every mother's son
You better learn it fast, you better learn it young
'Cause someday never comes'' ....
One of my favorite CCR songs. It is also one of a few great songs on the theme of relationship issues involving parenthood being passed down from one generation to the next. "Cats in the Cradle" is of course another one, as is "Younger Generation" by John Sebastian, just after he left the Lovin' Spoonful.
My favorite CCR song. Thanks for reacting guys

@@amyvest1777 What?
You missed the point too pal
One of my favorites.
Damn, I forgot about this song. Thanks 👍👍
Deep, deep, song that hits personally.
I remember having the Album Chronicle, and to me it was this song that stood out.
And let’s take a minute to be grateful that John Fogarty is still with us and very vibrant!
this is my favorite ccr song for the melancholy
CCR put out so many hits in such a short time!
One of the very best bands for sure.
Thanks
This song has brought many a man to tears... trust me on this.
Can't go wrong with CCR. Always loved their sound. Great reaction!
CCR - Hey Tonight is a good one as well!!!
Great storyteller and a favorite song - Fogerty stated in 2013 that the song is about his parents' and his own divorce: "When I wrote this song, my life was pretty chaotic.

"Well, I'm here to tell you now each and every mother's son. You better learn fast! You better learn young!" Good advice.
John Sang "Someday Never Comes" from the heart.Like he went through it
CCR. Always great. Always been, always will be. You could react to any of their songs...and you'll find they are all amazing. What a band. Thanks for the reaction.
Finally! I’m so excited to listen.

Jay, remember folks got to California from somewhere. Lots of people who left the Midwest and the Great Plains during the Dust Bowl days settled in California.
when i was young i was told i would understand when i got older but i never did that is the someday that never comes so true i hope you find the answers i never did.
Someone in the comments mentioned John Fogerty’s solo work, post CCR. I agree with their suggestion of “Sugar Sugar”. sweet song and unmistakable Fogerty pipes! 😁
There's a whole lot of great music from here in south Louisiana you guys would love. Cajun, zydeco, swamp pop etc. I was jamming Keith Frank's song "Haterz" earlier today.
Ed King. Was from southern California wrote the music for Sweet Home Alabama.
He was the main guitar player.
Despite how fun CCR is to party and dance to, they have four or five songs that I can think of right off the top of my head that to me are profoundly sad.
This song was written at a time where a lot of young men were going off to kill and be killed in vietnam. But the genius of it is that it can relate to any situation who are the father figure is largely absent.

Either going off to war and possibly dying or just going off and doing whatever his thing is. And the cycle repeats.
Others that are along this line which I think are some of their most powerful songs:
Hideaway (Wish I Could)
Feelin' Blue
Long As I Can See the Light
Effigy
Lodi, although that one is more up-tempo. But having played on small low-budget tours and having the van breakdown and wondering how you're going to get your money for the next gig, and maybe you get there and they don't pay you because they just blatantly break the contract because they know that they can and you don't have any other options, that sort of thing and then you always love playing in front of people but you end up in playing in front of really drunk people when you're really upset about things❤ and that song deals with that.

Thanks for making me cry. :)
You have to do "hay tonight" it will rock your socks off, "Travlin band' will do the same thing..also RambleTamble and oobie Doobie are great bangers
From 1972, this was their last hit. Such a bittersweet song. What a ride it was from 1968 to 1972!
not commercially a hit, but one of my favorite CCR songs. cool to see someone react to it.
CCR was my oldest Sister’s favorite group, I had to listen to it constantly..except when my Oldest Brother was around then I had to listen to The Beatles constantly..i was around 9 years old..young hippie I guess. Still listen to both groups. But my favorite group has always been The Bee Gees. That’s how I got hooked on your channel.
Like Meatloaf sang - two out of three ain't bad! CCR the best and The Bee Gees were pretty good too!
No truer words
No matter how much you think that Someday you'll understand.
the fact remains that no matter how much you try that someday never comes😢
This is the last of their releases I believe, and it's a favorite of mine. Sentimental and a great melody. Nice choice.
BTW, I live in central Cali and many baby boomers raised in this state are children born to parents from the Midwest or Southern states who relocated here during the Great Depression or the dust bowl. Parents who brought their mannerisms, dialects & vernacular with them. Maybe that was Fogerty's situation.

You can never go wrong with Creedence Clearwater Revival! 🌺✌️
One of my bands used to cover this in the 90s. To me, the father tells the son that, "some day you'll understand" as a way to placate the child. But the child grew up to know that "some day never comes". In other words, you will never reach that understanding that you were promised would come.
Your reactions are so much fun to watch! I’d love to see what you think of Bibio; specifically, A Tout A L’Heure and Sunbursting. Please!
Tombstone shadow is one that shows John's skills playing and singing
Thanks y'all for reacting to this one. From what I understand, it's somewhat autobiographical. I also highly recommend Long As I Can See The Light...might be his best vocals!
Fogarty did finally win against the record compony after more then 20 years. Other musicians revere him for perseverance and showed support and celebrate him for never giving up. They still do.
I see a few "Hey Tonight" recommendations here for another CCR reaction, and I have to join in that call. Rockin' from start to finish. Thanks for giving "Someday ..." a listen!
My fav CCR will always be As long as I can see the light
“Wrote a song for everyone”, a very under played and under appreciated song in my humble opinion, give it a listen, even if not for a reaction 😎
Johnny Rivers did a nice cover of this song as well. I love both versions.
Great song! Fogarty's voice is just incredible. Thanks for this.
One of the best CCR songs. Love this one
great line
Without a doubt CCR is one of the best bands in the world! I'm also a fan of them. Fogert's voice and the sound they made is fantastic! I was born in 1977 and I really like music from the 60s/70s-- could it be because I must have lived at that time in a past life, or when the music is good it is timeless? I don't know... and I would like to suggest a song I discovered these days-- Elusive Butterfly, with Bob Lind. Hugs from Brazil!
Love this one.
my all time fav CCR tune. Great choice.
Thank you! I have been waiting for this song for a while. Next, "Seven Bridges Road", from the Eagles live album... pretty please... with sugar on...
One of my favorite CCR songs. Long As I Can See The Light would be great.
Wow, glad you reviewed this one. This was not as big of a hit but was my favorite CCR song. Well I'm here to tell you now each and every mothers son . . . . .
