Creedence Clearwater Revival - It Came Out Of The Sky (Official Audio)

“It Came Out Of The Sky” by Creedence Clearwater Revival from the album Willie and the Poor Boys.

**About Willie and the Poor Boys**
1969 was a prolific year for Creedence Clearwater Revival, who released three Billboard Top Ten albums in 12 months. Willy and the Poor Boys, was released in November of 1969 to wide critical acclaim and commercial success. The LP includes one of the most enduring Vietnam protest songs, “Fortunate Son,” as well as quintessential CCR tracks like “Down on the Corner,” “It Came Out of the Sky” and “Midnight Special.” The record peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200, and has been called the band’s “best record” by The Village Voice, while it was also included in Rolling Stone’s “500 Greatest Albums of All Time.”

**About Creedence Clearwater Revival**
Creedence Clearwater Revival’s 1968 self-titled debut album introduced the world to guitar-playing brothers John and Tom Fogerty, drummer Doug Clifford, and bassist Stu Cook, four young men out of El Cerrito in the San Francisco Bay Area. Though they emerged in a place and time where trippy psychedelic visions were the order of the day, CCR bucked the trends and instead tapped into a rich, traditional seam of American music that connected to blues, country, rockabilly, gospel, folk and R&B.   

During their short time together as a band (1968 – 1972), the band enjoyed an unparalleled period of creativity. They’ve sold over 30 million records in the U.S. alone, releasing 14 Top 10 hits, six Platinum albums (two of which went to number one) and one Gold album. They also managed to play over 150 tour dates around the world, including a headlining spot at Woodstock. 

Creedence Clearwater Revival’s canon has become a part of the Great American Songbook. Songs like “Bad Moon Rising,” “Down on the Corner,” “Fortunate Son,” “Have You Ever Seen the Rain,” “Proud Mary,” “Born on the Bayou,” “Travelin’ Band” and “Up Around the Bend” have been ingrained into pop culture — not just as rock staples, but as classic standards.  

 With so many memorable songs that continue to grace our radio waves and television and movie screens, plus lyrics that still resonate today, Creedence Clearwater Revival is, truly, America’s greatest rock ’n’ roll band.

I thought I knew just about all the songs of this band😯, but I didn't know this one yet.😎

[비정한세상]

Oh, it came out of the sky, landed just a little South of Moline.
Jody fell out of his tractor, couldn't b'lieve what he seen.
Laid on the ground and shook fearin' for his life.
Then he ran all the way to town screamin' it came out of the sky.

Well, a crowd gathered round and a scientish said it was marsh gas.
Spiro came and made a speed about raising the Mars tax.
The Vatican said, woe, the Lord has come, Hollywood rushed out an epic film
And Ronnie the Popular said it was a communist plot.

Oh, the newspapers came and made Jody a national hero.
Walter and Eric said they'd put him on a network TV show.
The White House said, put the thing in the Blue Room, the Vatican said,
No, it belongs to Rome
And Jody said, it's mine and you can have it for seventeen million.

One of my favorites and most underrated

[cridencista]

¡GENIAL! Rock and Roll puro. Chuck Berry estaría feliz. Con Fortune Son los 2 mejores temas que compuso John Fogerty. Agrego Ramble Tamble y Hey tonight, los 4 mejores en mi opinión.

[alanoszy]

[ixstringsonfire]

I play with song when I’m driving down an empty road in the middle of nowhere.

[willyparquert.]

¡Uh lo que suenan esas guitarras por favor! ¿Por qué no lo tocan casi nunca? Ni John Fogerty ni los Revisited. Temas como este me alegran la vida

[pigger]

I like this on airwolf when "Roxy" sang it..
