Creedence Clearwater Revival's resurgence on the charts can be attributed to the spooky season, but it's not just Halloween-specific tracks that are seeing a comeback this year. The classic rock staple, "Bad Moon Rising," has experienced an impressive chart comeback, climbing back into the top 20 on both Billboard's Hot Rock Songs and Hot Rock & Alternative Songs charts.
The song's return is particularly notable given its age - it was released in 1969 as the lead single from their album Green River. Despite being one of the most successful bands of several years ago and changing the sound of rock music, Creedence Clearwater Revival never managed to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. However, "Bad Moon Rising" remains one of their most iconic tracks, reentering both charts after spending eight weeks on each.
The band's comeback isn't limited to just this song; another staple, "Have You Ever Seen the Rain," is also seeing a resurgence in popularity, with the track managing a comeback on Billboard's Global Excl. U.S chart, which lists the most consumed tracks globally excluding American consumption.
Interestingly, both "Bad Moon Rising" and "Have You Ever Seen the Rain" are featured on Creedence Clearwater Revival's Chronicle: The 20 Greatest Hits, a compilation that has been a chart-topper for years. The release is currently rising in the Top Rock Albums and Top Rock & Alternative Albums charts, with Chronicle reaching Nos. 8 and 9 respectively.
While "Bad Moon Rising" and "Have You Ever Seen the Rain" may have become staples of American rock music decades ago, their reemergence on the charts this year serves as a testament to the enduring power of Creedence Clearwater Revival's music. The band's timeless hits continue to captivate new generations of fans, ensuring that they remain relevant in the modern music landscape.
