CCR "Fortunate Son" lyrics here. The "artists" knew exactly what they were singing.

#6  I believe the alleged "Boss" lost any miniscule remaining street cred when he started buying ponies from the Queen of England for his daughter to play equestrian princess.
Fortunate Son (or Daughter) indeed...

#5  John Fogerty is a poser; he is as much a bayou boy as I'm a shrimp boat captain.

Springsteen, geesh, what's the matter, Paul Hardcastle already booked?

#3  It was a pretty popular song of the Vietnam generation, among both servicemen and civilians. And both groups understood the words and meaning.

#2  I like the John Fogerty song. However, it was not appropriate on the Veteran's Day playlist.

#1  Did they follow it up with "Born in the USA"? Who thought Bruce Springsteen was a good choice for this sort of thing? Boy's spent his life on the Gramscian Long March.
