Feelin’ Alright (Studio Version)The Jackson 5

Released: September 18, 2012

Songwriter: Dave Mason

Producer: The Corporation

Seems I've got to have a change of scene
Cause every night I have the strangest dreams
Imprisoned by the way it should have been
Left me all alone or so it seems
Ooh, I've got to leave before I start to scream
But someone locked the door and turned the key

(Chorus:)
Feelin alright
I'm not feelin too good myself
Feelin alright
I'm not feelin too good myself

Boy she really took me for one big ride
And when I think of you, I start to cry
And I just can't wipe and I must keep dry
I've got to stop believing all your lies, yeah baby
Cause there's too much to do before I die, yeah

Feelin alright
I'm not feelin too good myself
Feelin alright
I'm not feelin too good myself

Hey, hey, hey

Feelin alright
Don't believe in all I say
Feelin alright
Well at the time I really felt that way
Feelin alright
But that was then and now it's today
Feelin alright
Can't get off, but I'm here to stay, yeah

Feelin alright
Someone comes along and takes my place
Feelin alright
A different name, and just a different day

Twee-twilidee-tee-twili-dee-tee
Twee-twilidee-tee-twili-dee-tee
Twee-twilidee-tee-twili-dee-tee

Hey, hey, hey

Feelin alright
I'm not feelin too good myself
Feelin alright
I'm not feelin too good myself

The Jackson 5

The Jackson 5 were originally formed in 1963 under the name, The Jackson Brothers. The founding members were Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, and Marlon. Michael would join the group as the lead singer a year later, a move which pushed Jermaine to sing the backing vocals and play the lead guitar.

After participating in a series of talent shows, they entered the professional music scene in 1967, signing with Steeltown Records and releasing ten singles. In 1969, they left Steeltown Records in order to sign with Motown.

In 1975, most of the Jacksons had opted out of recording any more music for Motown, expressing desires to have creative control over their songs, as well as royalties. Learning that they were earning only 2.8% of royalties from Motown, Joe Jackson, the father and manager of the group, began to negotiate a lucrative contract with Epic records, which offered a royalty rate of 20% per record. The deal was completed in June 1975. As Motown owned the name The Jackson 5, the group simply renamed themselves The Jacksons.
