Your contribution to the optimism playlist?
“Feeling Good” by Nina Simone
Why did you pick this song? What does it do for you?
This song inspired me to start the optimism playlist several years ago. It was song No. 1, and now Nina is hot again. There are two movies about her.
Every now and then, I get a glimpse of what she’s talking about – birds, fish, blossoms on the tree being exactly what they’re meant to be – and that’s feeling good.
There are other great versions of this song, but her scat is the message in action.
