THE BEST SONGS IN THE WORLD EVER.

To compliment my recently completed ‘1000 BEST SONGS LIST,’ here is another that just missed the cut.

1052-Della Reese-If It Feels Good,Do It.
1972-Has never charted in the UK.
Best Bit-At 0.45.The late great DJ Alan ‘Fluff’ Freeman tried to get all his ‘Pop Pickers’ to buy this song, by constantly playing it on his radio shows, ‘All Right,’ unfortunately his good taste did not rub off on the general public, and the song was never a hit, ‘Not Arf!’
Delloreese Early was born in Black Bottom, Detroit, U.S. on July 6. 1931, she died on November 19, 2017. Her career spanned seven decades, taking in singing, acting in films, and hosting her own talk show on television. Her talents were evident from a very early age, performing Gospel music under the tutelage of ‘The Queen of Gospel,’ Mahalia Jackson.Her commercial breakthrough came in 1959 when she reached Number 2 on Billboard with the song ‘Don’t You Know,’ being kept off the top spot by Bobby Darin’s ‘Mack The Knife.’
‘If It Feels Good Do It’ has become something of a Northern Soul favourite, it was written by Michael Vale, who in the 1960’s had been the bass player for Tommy James and the Shondells. The song was produced by ‘Hugo & Luigi(see also best songs 194,) and arranged by Jimmie Haskell(see also best songs 328-71 and 18.)
‘I don’t care what people say, I’m gonna do it anyway.’
