Richard Thompson is an acquired taste. He’s like your first beer, it didn’t go down well but there was a pretty good chance you would have another. Thompson has a very dark sense of humor that once you are on board with it, you can see his brilliance. Today’s song is I Feel So Good and it is a typical Thompson gem. Thompson sings as a teenager who just got out of the juvenile prison and wants to celebrate by doing additional property harm and breaking a heart. It’s not your usual fun and uplifting song but if you recognize that it is tongue-in-cheek, you will understand the joy here. Never has breaking the law and getting a little bit of revenge sounded so good.
