CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL " Long as i Can See The Light" 2024 stereo mix..
"Long As I Can See the Light" is a song by American rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival, from the album Cosmo's Factory. Released as the flip side of the single "Lookin' Out My Back Door" in 1970, it reached number 57 on the Cash Box singles chart in the US, number 20 in the UK (in the UK, "Long As I Can See the Light" was on the A-side, and "Lookin' Out My Back Door" on the flip), and number one in Norway.

Cash Box compared it to "Lookin' Out My Back Door", calling "Long as I Can See the Light" "a slower paced ballad from the blues school. More subtle, but a good bet to overtake the “Lookin’” side." Billboard called it a "funky blues number."

The two songs were also released as a double-sided single and peaked at number two in the US.

"Long As I Can See the Light" appears on most Creedence Clearwater Revival compilation albums, notably The Best of Creedence Clearwater Revival and Chronicle: The 20 Greatest Hits. It became a concert staple for singer John Fogerty as a solo artist.
John Fogerty stated that the song is "about the loner in me. Wanting to feel understood, needing those at home to shine a light so that I can make my way back."

"If you tour a lot, it's one of those songs that just makes you miss home so badly," remarked Slipknot front-man Corey Taylor. "A really sombre piece."

The drum beat was sampled by Moby for "The Sky Is Broken" on his 1999 album Play.
