History


Fogerty wrote this song about the similarities between the Vietnam War and the war in Iraq. He believed the US government was making the same mistakes again.[4] The song started to evolve in 2002 or early 2003. Fogerty stated that "Deja Vu (All Over Again)" isn't a political song, but a description about the sadness caused by human losses in the war; musically and thematically it's similar to CCR's classics "Have You Ever Seen the Rain" and "Who'll Stop the Rain".[5]


Live performances


The song was played live for the first time at John Kerry-John Edwards Fundraising at Radio City Music Hall, New York, on July 8th, 2004. It was changed from an electric band version to an acoustic solo performance in 2005; the acoustic rendition also appears on the Long Road Home DVD filmed at Wiltern Theatre, Los Angeles, on September 15th, 2005[6] and on the live album The Long Road Home - In Concert, released in 2006.[7] "Deja Vu (All Over Again)" was performed live 195 times totally.[8]
