Ain't That Good News, 1964
Written by Sam Cooke
This week is all about 1964!
For the second day in a row during this 1964 week, we have a song that's a little wistful, a little nostalgic, a little hedonistic, a little carpe diem. "Ain't felt this good since I don't know when / And I might not feel this good again." Maybe that was a common vibe in 1964 music. The singer doesn't know what time it is and he doesn't care. He's just going to let the good times roll. I have heard this song before, but Aretha Franklin's version. To me, Sam Cooke is the main man, the genius, the velvet voice. This is the superior rendition.
