The Boys Down on the Corner
One of my favorite groups Creedence Clearwater Revival was a popular American rock group from the late 1960s to the early 1970s. The boys in the band were John Fogerty lead vocal, lead guitar, and songwriter, Tom Fogerty rhythm guitar, Stu Cook on bass, and Doug Clifford on drums. Their musical style was a mixture of swamp rock and roots rock genres. Their origins were from San Francisco but they mostly portrayed themselves as a Southern band singing about the Mississippi, the bayou and catfish. During their popularity, they sold over 26 million albums. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1993 and were ranked 82 on Rolling Stone’s list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.

Music About Musicians By Musicians
Introduction Dexy's Midnight Runners came on the radio covering Van Morrison's "Jackie Wilson Said" and I thought could I put together a playlist of songs or band singing about other singers or bands. We obviously have something to kick off this one and another has just come into my head, bands named after songs, but that can wait awhile.

Multi-Hyphenate Actor, Recording Artist, and Filmmaker Amir Royale Drops Seductive Single “Pruane” (feat. Lulu Kirtchuk and Devereaux)
From Amir Royale I’ve tasted toxicity. I’ve lusted after romance in a way that may have been unhealthy for a couple of years. I’ve misunderstood cues during intimacy before but have also had partners not reciprocate my passion or attention to detail. “Pruane” is about being in that center space between ‘DTF buddies’ and ‘soulmates.’ That unspoken sense of attachment intertwined with the minutiae of apathy. Somewhere smack in the middle of possessive and protective, sexual and sensual, in-love and out of it. We search for the love we think we deserve – and the people that are right for us; we often overlook or undervalue them. Maybe one day I’ll finally start getting all this stuff right. ‘Til then, I’m content sitting still. Walk good, take care. 🌺❤️🩹🌺
