"COTTON FIELDS" history goes back a few centuries when black slaves labored hard picking cotton in the heat of the sun in the South (hence, the reference to Louisiana, a southern US state). Although Creedence Clearwater Revival (and many others) popularized it in the 60s, it was originally written and sung by a black blues singer Huddle Ledbetter in the 1940s, only less than eighty years after the black slaves had gained their freedom. Many great black singers sang of what life was like for them in the time of slavery. Many groups and solo singers covered the song but CCR's version is probably the most popular because of their other big hits ("Bad Moon Rising," "Lodi," "Have You Ever Seen the Rain, "Proud Mary," "Green River," "Born on the Bayou," etc.). The first time I heard "Cotton Fields" was during a Boy Scouts' campfire when this song was performed by a band of Boy Scouts accompanied by their ukuleles. This reminds me of Dodz' Boy Scouts' Jamboree recently in Balilihan, Bohol. Flashback of my Boy Scouts years. Thank you, Dodz! Thank you, Char, Chen, Lene & Franz for this super cover! ☮
Please please tell us where you find these old American standard songs I heard when I was a child over 60 years ago. I have not heard it for many years and somehow you make it sound amazing. Salamat, salamat! Your harmonies are amazing, your energy and enthusiasm are infectious, and your connection with each other is endearing. Even the youngest of the group-yes I am talking about you Dodz-performs in a way that makes all of us tap or stomp our feet. As I have said it before, I do not understand how all of you put these songs together this quickly and at this level of quality. I’m sure many of us in the USA are deeply touched by your sincere enthusiasm for our music. It has forced this older guy from Hawaii to start paying attention to filipino music and start learning some basic tagalog. I hope to visit your country and if lucky, maybe even hear you perform live. Salamat po. -pagpalain kayong lahat ng diyos. ❤
you really have to hold a concert even just for a day.. then a tour..Philippines tour.. first in Visayas, Mindanao and Luzon.. i am sure,, all tickets will be sold out
Nakahiga na sana ako matutulog ng bigla nag notification ang paborito kong bandang franz rhythm sa cp ko agad kong pinindot at syempre no skipping adds agad kahit matagal matapos sulit naman at ng makita at mapakinggan woww grabe natulala ako sa performance ng mga idol chen char at daddy franz at si duds ang galing na talaga sa drums mamaw na pumalo blendingan instruments almost perfect nakakamiss din mga tugtugan niyo idol swak naman sa paghihintay stay safe lang guys Godbless family band solid fan here in davao city ❤❤❤❤
This song was first written and recorded by Huddie Ledbetter in 1940. There have been many, many covers done over the years. I can remember in the distant recesses of my memory growing up in North Carolina a cover done on the “Arthur Smith” show, out of Charlotte. That must have been around 1960-62. I remember going around as a 6-year-old singing it. Having been with my Filipina wife and her family for 21 years now, I was delighted to hear this song rendered by such talent, in that delightful Filipino accent!
GREAT rendition of an old favorite! (My Grandmother picked cotton in the hot Texas Sun in the 1920s while she had a baby on her back and pulling another along the way as she picked the Cotten).
Omg I was dancing with you guys. You really nailed it super duper galing!! Yung para akong tanga na sumasayaw nakangiti Habang nakasaksak Ang headset. Super love the energy of Daddy Franz
Wow very nice cover para sa akin hindi na kayo ordinaryong musician sa tingin ko jenius po kayo lahat about sa musika grabe kayo congrats goodluck Godbless..
I don't think there is another family band that is good as they are. Your harmonization is beyond compare!!! Always a pleasure to hear them sing and play their hearts out!!!
Ang ganda ng blending ng boses nilang mag aama. C Char perfect sa kanyang pagtugtog gamit ang acoustic guitar c Chen s knyang electric guitar walang sablay. At ung ama nila magaling talaga pti c dudz.
Now, this is amazingly done beautifully! Such a great talented sisters and a very proud father harmonizing seamlessly. The drummer is on point. She deserves a microphone. Enjoying and listening in Orange Park, Florida, USA.
It's no longer a song that belongs to Lousiana and Texarkana. This is a song I grew up listening in India and we played it often in school not knowing where Lousiana is(was).
This band is really heaven sent to relieved our worries, stress and homesickness every time we hear them play. They bring smile to our faces as always especially OFW. Thanks for the cover guys! We love you.❤
That was A great song it brings back great memories of the past of my school days when I j ust fell in love with A girl and I used tie A yellow ribbon under the tree where we used to meet
Franz Rhythm isa po sa paborito Kung banda ang CCR salamat pag togtog idol, more CCR pa GOD BLESS TO WHOLE FAMILY OF FRANZ RHYTHM,,, REQUEST IDOL FRANZ,,, LRB
Your family band makes us feel proud as Filipinos. Didn’t realise that their mom in addition to her sweet cool voice also play a bit of the keyboard. Multi talented multi tasking family indeed.
Lalo nyo akong pinapahanga mga master, in my 46 years of my life, ngayon ko lang narinig ang kanta na to kaya para sa akin kayo ang original ng kantang ito, I love the energy of Char here and Chen dudz at tatay franz with your lovely smile lalo ako na iinlove sa inyo 😍😍😍😍
Jusme, ang sarap pakinggan para kang nasa alapaap...mas lalong gumagaling si Chen, Char and Dodz... mas lalo na si Sir Franz... at mam Arlene sa likod ng camera... God Bless Birad Family🙏
A perfect song to hear how the three of you blend your voices beautifully. You know, I am not a fan of any celebrity but I am a big fan of this Franz family. The bond, humility and talent (from hard work I am sure) is amazing to me. I wish you all the best. Mike from USA and Cagayan De Oro
Once again you guys bring it up to another level and Chen can make any guitar sound good! Char amazes with the rhythm and harmonies and leads at times. Dodz is a natural… still amazed at his talent that seemed to sprout like blossoms, very rapid progression in his skills. The ROCK… Franz, secretly holding everyone together. I love his modesty but can’t deny his superb and varied skills of music and leadership! Perfect harmony my friends and you have us all tapping our feet to this song that CCR brought into modern rock history from the days of cotton pickers singing in the fields to ease their burdens. Now Franz Rhythm family brings it again to the world with admirable voices, harmonies and musical instruments mastered by intelligent talent! Love and miss you all.❤ Thank you for bringing us such joy.
Another classic CCR cover with your own awesome twist. Again, always impressed and never disappointed. You guys are so good, Chen, maybe a little louder on your solo but all and all, very well done, nice dancing around Char. Dodz, you always lead everyone to a great ending. Well done, thanks for the music!

A Filipino musical group singing an old, old country/folk tune about cotton fields, Louisiana and Texarkana! That’s a first!😁👍🏻
It's no longer a song that belongs to Lousiana and Texarkana. This is a song I grew up listening in India and we played it often in school not knowing where Lousiana is(was).
OMG, great Groovy Dodz...
This band is really heaven sent to relieved our worries, stress and homesickness every time we hear them play. They bring smile to our faces as always especially OFW. Thanks for the cover guys! We love you.❤

CCR stands for "Creedence Clearwater Revival", an American band famous in the 60's. I suppose that two of the four integrants are still active.
