Feeling Good Anthony Newley, Leslie Bricusse Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Reeds driftin’ on by you know how I feel
(refrain:)
It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life
For me
And I’m feeling good
Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom in the tree you know how I feel
(refrain)
Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don’t you know
Butterflies all havin’ fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
That’s what I mean
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me
Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feelNina Simone
I can’t get this song out of my head today!
Usually I move through ten or fifteen different songs a day…
This morning this one won’t go away! I don’t know why since I haven’t listened to it in forever.
It may be because today is my day off… or my day to work,
however you want to look at it…
I look at it as FREEDOM!
What song is in YOUR head?
Comments (26)
Not so much the song in my head as the song for the day is Break Stuff by Limp Bizkit
Right now nothing. ooh.. nothing. thats sorta fantastic.
no songs at all. i’m MENSTRUATING!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-/
Who knew by Pink (the words are quite meaningful right now)
If someone said three years from now
You’d be long gone
I’d stand up and punch them out
Cause they’re all wrong
I know better
‘Cause you said forever
And ever
Who knew
i love, love, love nina simone. i can only hope to sing like her someday.
what’s stuck in my head? music box by regina spektor.
“Hold on tight to your dreams”
I don’t know why…it’s just there…over and over.
“This is why I’m hot.”
Is this the way to Amarillo
Well now it’s Amarillo by Morning –
Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone.
Everything that I’ve got is just what I’ve got on.
When that sun is high in that Texas sky
I’ll be bucking it to county fair.
Amarillo by morning, Amarillo I’ll be there.
ilym!!!!
“Love Can Make You Happy’ by Mercy. A very old song, but a lovely one!! Nina Simone is great.
LOL! This one now! I like Barry White and often have one of his going in my mind.
Gunpowder and Lead by Miranda Lambert!
this morning on the subway, i wanted to hear her go, “i run the wataaaah veryveryveryHOT” and realized it wasn’t on my mp3 player – i don’t think i’ve ever been so unnecessarily upset about not having a song on my person at all times!
I have had the prayer of St. Francis stuck in my head all day. I love that song.
How funny this would come up–this morning sfamylou planted Sam Cooke’s “Cupid” in my head and I can’t get rid of it!
ryc – when i took those anti period pills, they made my gastro intestinal system freak out. i mean..it was so bad that i made an appointment iwth the doctor. in between the time the symptoms started and the appt. with the doc, i figured out that it was the pills! i researched the med web site and found that gastro problems are a side effect.
but the good news is that the doc scheduled me for a colonoscopy and found a polyp. so…it worked out.
I LOVE that song! I’ve got ‘I don’t feel like dancing’ by Scissor Sisters stuck in my head this evening and am driving the kids mad by singing the ‘I’ part way too high and way too long. It’s revenge for years of having to endure Barney and Tellytubbies, I swear *laughs wickedly*
no song here either.
Don’t Stop til You Get Enough, the late-great Michael Jackson.
Hi…
Thanks for the subscription…
I’ll be fun getting to know you too! : )
I love good old Nina.
And now her “My Baby just cares for Me” is in my head, hehe.
Hope your day off/working was a good one, dearie.

No songs in my head at the moment, thank goodness. My husband loves Nina Simone, though
Father/ Into your hands/I/commend my spirit,
Father, into your hands,
Why have you forsaken me,
In your eyes forsaken me,
In your thoughts forsaken me,
In your heart forsaken, me oh,
Trust in my self righteous suicide,
I, cry, when angels deserve to die,
Damn them System of a Down for being sooooo goood!
Later,
Gina
