A black lady here still grooving to “The Cougar” over 30 years later. I saw him in concert back in ‘86, I was 18! I loved how the crowd was so diverse! He is beyond talented, he played damn near every instrument.

Saw Mellencamp perform back in '86... and saw him just last week. Just as good then and now.

Brings back so many good memories. John Cougar Mellencamp songs are still great in my book. Music today just can’t compare to the music of the 70’s.

Mellancamp is the soundtrack to my youth. I just love that dude. Thank you for being a poet. The Black community truly loves John. He was reaching out to us when it wasn't fashionable. Trying to bring everyone together.

As a Nigerian, I kept wondering myself as years went by why I was so addicted to John Cougar Mellencamp's music. Can't precisely say why. But I love his style, his simple down-to-earth lyrics. They wash me over with sweet nostalgia.

This song literally makes me, a 63 year old man, grew up in Indiana, cry. It’s my past life. I lived it. It’s gone. Only in memories.
