"Bad Moon Rising" is a song written by John Fogerty and performed by Creedence Clearwater Revival. It was the lead single from their album Green River and was released in April 1969, four months before the album. The song peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on 28 June 1969 and reached No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart for three weeks in September of that year. It was CCR's second gold single.
Fogerty reportedly wrote "Bad Moon Rising" after watching The Devil and Daniel Webster. Inspired by a scene in the film involving a hurricane, Fogerty claims the song is about "the apocalypse that was going to be visited upon us"
This song was featured in John Landis’s 1981 film An American Werewolf in London as one of five songs used in the film that reference the moon, during a scene where David staves off boredom while waiting to transform into a werewolf.
I want to say special thanks to David Bayliss of Bullbayliss Music who helped massively with the video (The American werewolf theme used in this video was actually played by him in one of his earlier videos and he did an amazing rendition of the soundtrack (link below))
I had great fun recording this and I really hope you enjoy it, and please do like/dislike, share and comment to let me know what you think.

Here is Dave's version of the soundtrack : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GDUZK3HOEA&t=156s
