Back in 2020, John Fogerty issued a 'cease-and-desist' order to Donald Trump demanding that he stop using Creedence Clearwater Revival's Fortunate Son at his political campaign rallies.
"He is using my words and my voice to portray a message that I do not endorse," the Californian musician wrote on Twitter. "I wrote this song because, as a veteran, I was disgusted that some people were allowed to be excluded from serving our country because they had access to political and financial privilege. I also wrote about wealthy people not paying their fair share of taxes. Mr Trump is a prime example of both of these issues."
But when Trump hosted a military parade in Washington DC in June, on what just happened be his birthday, once again Fortunate Son cropped up, albeit this time an instrumental version of CCR's 1969 hit.
