Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Commotion. By Songfacts®.

"Commotion" is the second track on the Green River album. It was the B-side of the "Green River" single, which peaked at #2 in the US and #19 in the UK. A standard practice at the time was to release lesser-quality songs as B-sides on singles, but Fogerty always liked to take a different approach, pairing two A-side-worthy songs together, as he wanted the highest possible quality on all CCR products at all times. This practice helped boost CCR singles sales even further.

Fogerty doesn't like the frenetic pace and constant noise of modern life. "Commotion" grew out of his frustration with those things.
