Guilty pleasures, the 80's & Debbie Gibson, sad to say was playing this in the car the other day, and have been playing it on and off since the 80s, this does rate as my favourite 80's song. This seemed to be a prequel to my declining music taste, its been cheesy pop since.

I like version 3 the best

" Fortunate Son " is a song by Creedence Clearwater Revival on their album Willy and the Poor Boys in 1969. It was released as a single, together with " Down on the Corner ," in September 1969. [1] This song reached #14 on the United States charts. It won the R.I.A.A. Gold Disc award in December 1970. [2] The song was inspired by David Eisenhower , the grandson of President Dwight David Eisenhower who married Julie Nixon , the daughter of President Richard Nixon in 1968 (Eisenhower later enlisted in the Navy Reserve ). [3] John Fogerty told Rolling Stone : "Julie Nixon was hanging around with David Eisenhower, and you just had the feeling that none of these people were going to be involved with the war.

Early life Henry Garfield was born in Washington, D.C. on February 13, 1961, and grew up in the Glover Park neighborhood of the city. An only child, his parents divorced when he was a toddler; he suffered from low self-esteem and a poor attention span as a child.[1] He was raised primarily by his mother, Iris, who taught him to read before he entered public school;[2] however, because of "bad grades, bad attitude, poor conduct," he was soon sent to The Bullis School, a preparatory school in Potomac, Maryland. According to Rollins, the Bullis School helped him to develop a sense of discipline and a strong work ethic.[1] It was at Bullis that he began writing; his early literary efforts were mainly short stories about "blowing up my school and murdering all the teachers."[2] Despite the relative affluence of Glover Park, for Rollins "it was a very rough upbringing in a lot of other ways. I accumulated a lot of rage by the time I was seventeen or eighteen....

Ne le Dis a Personne is a french film that came out in 2006, truly amazing film, this song appears in this film and was the first time i had heard it, but what a great great song. If we are talking about great songs from the film Ne le Dis a Personne, then we need to include this Otis Redding cover of the Jerry Butler classic, this song is sad sad sad but Otis can sing.
