Released as a single from the 1970 album Pendulum, "Have You Ever Seen the Rain" peaked at #8 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart. A significant achievement, to be sure, but not as impressive as some of the band's earlier hits; "Proud Mary," "Bad Moon Rising" and "Down on the Corner/Fortunate Son" all went to #2. Over the years, however, the song's popularity grew. It's currently Creedence Clearwater Revival's biggest streaming hit, with over 2 billion streams on Spotify ("Fortunate Son" is in second place with 1.7 billion streams).
On the streaming-only list, "Have You Ever Seen the Rain" made it to #19, while it just made the cut on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. at #199. The song is climbing up the Billboard Global 200, too (though it's been hanging out there for quite some time already), going from #151 to #135.
'Have You Ever Seen the Rain' was written about Creedence Clearwater Revival's 'impending breakup'
As frontman John Fogerty told Rolling Stone in 1993, "Have You Ever Seen the Rain" was inspired by the band's struggles (brother and bandmate Tom Fogerty left the group in 1971).
Years later, however, at a 2012 concert in Arizona, Fogerty said the song had taken on a new meaning for him.
