Comments: Sorry about the late post, everyone-- I'm pretty sick. But enough about me, this is a blog about music. Today's music: the song "Feeling Good." As best as I can tell, this song was originally done by Nina Simone, and covered by more artists than I care to name. (If I'm wrong about the original artist, let me know, and I'll post a correction.) Of all the versions and covers that I've encountered, I prefer the one by Muse. The megaphone used in the vocals is a nice touch, and I think it sounds really, really cool. I'd be interested to see if anyone reading this has a version of this song they like better. If you know a cover or a spin on this song you think people should hear, let me know and I'll pass it along. As a side note, the version I posted was recorded live at Wembley Stadium. If you want to hear the official, studio-perfect music video version, you can find it at http://youtu.be/CmwRQqJsegw. Enjoy the music!
