Listening Blog #8

For this week's listwening blog, i cxhose to listen to Bad Moon Rising by Creedence Clearwater Revival. I had heard thiss ong prior to listening to it in class, but only a couple of times. It was just enough to slightly recognize the song. I think my dad might have played it a few times when I was a kid so it kind of gives me a bit of a nostalgic feeling. I added it to my Spotify library and I have been listening to it regularly over the past couple of days and I just love the happy upbeat tune it has. I've lisened to the lyrics a few times and paid attention to them, but I still am not sure exactly what they message of the song is. The singer sings about how he "sees the bad moon rising" and sees trouble on the way. He goes on to say he sees various natural disasters such as hurricanes and lightning coming. It might be a metaphor to an unpromising future. Although I don't understand the message or story behind the song, I do like the tune and beat of the song and I enjoy listening to it.
