The song, which was originally performed by Dale Hawkins in 1957, was written about the daughter of Stan Lewis, the owner of Jewel/Paula Records at the time. It has catchy lyrics like, “I like the way you walk, I like the way you talk. I like the way you walk, I like the way you talk, Susie Q.”
Despite the band's massive amount of success and the fact that their music is still popular on the radio to this day, Creedence Clearwater Revival disbanded in 1972. When speaking with Guitar Player in 2024, Fogerty spoke about the troubles he had with the band.
The singer explained that in 1970, when they were preparing to make their sixth studio album, his bandmates held a meeting. “Everyone was demanding, 'We want to all write songs, and we want to make up our own parts on the records' — that sort of thing. And it was basically an ultimatum," he said.
He continued, “At some point human beings are the way they are. They get jealous of that guy getting the attention, or they want to try doing what he’s doing. But that’s why there’s just one quarterback on a good team.”
Fogerty turns 81 years old today, on May 28.
