    Wrote a Song for Everyone: Creedence Clearwater Revival (1969)

    Steve Martin once said that writing about comedy is like dancing about architecture. Sometimes I feel that way about music. It is, at times, an unfathomable beast that cannot be tamed into words. I try, but all my utterances are rendered absurd. Powerless in the shadow of a melody. It’s like those dreams when you’re trying to run and can’t seem to go anywhere.

    I’ve been trying to write about this song for weeks, but the words never came. Even in more loquacious times. So it seems a fitting moment to finally wave the white flag on this one. The best I could say also happens to be the stupidest thing anyone could say about a song: it’s really good and I really like it.

    What we’ve got here is a failure to communicate.
