| Traffic – Feelin' Alright Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
OK, I think that this song is about relationships, but I think it was really about Dave's relationship with his bandmates in Traffic. I believe this song was on their second album and was written after the first break up. I can see Dave sitting back writing these lyrics, inspired by the need to move on from an unpleasant situation with Steve Winwood and the direction of the band. The history between Dave and Steve is well documented and to this day they really don't connect because of the difference between them. Dave didn't even play with them on Dear Mr. Fantasy at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction of Traffic....which was very sad and disappointing. Life is short guys, and it would be great to see them (only Dave and Steve are alive still) play again....but im not holding my breath there. Maybe part of the songs appeal is that it is universal to many relationships that go bad, which we all experience at some point. My two cents. Craig |
