I hope CCR got royalties from this song.
According to some sources, the similarity to Creedence Clearwater Revival was not lost on that group's lead singer, John Fogerty. He was of the opinion that the song was "too close" to his trademark sound, and allegedly sued the Hollies over the issue. The suit was settled out of court for an undisclosed sum of money.[8]
I was half joking but given John Fogerty’s proclivity to sue, I shouldn’t have been surprised.
Yeah, I'm surprised. Copying a song, sure, but a sound?
Fogerty himself was once sued for copying his own sound
