She's truly amazing. I got to hear her in concert at a festival some years ago. So much energy and enthusiasm onstage, and she sounds just as strong and awesome as ever, even while jumping around.

This takes me back to the mid 90s. I wasn't a massive Skunk Anansie fan per se, but their music always pervaded what I did. I've not just come to enjoy it, I've come to love it hard. This song in particular reminds me of the days when Saturday afternoons were endless, enjoying the sun with 50+ friends and wondering if I was bi or not. I am and these guys and Living Colour helped me out to feel like I wasn't an outsider. Will always love these guys for this, every time I hear it, brings a tear to my eye,

Lyrics I hope you're feeling happy now I see you feel no pain at all, it seems I wonder what you're doin' now I wonder if you think of me at all Do you still play the same moves now? Or are those special moods for someone else? I hope you're feeling happy now Just because you feel good Doesn't make you right, oh no Just because you feel good Still want you here tonight Does laughter still discover you? I see through all the smiles that look so right Do you still have the same friends now To smoke away your problems and your life? Oh how do you remember me? The one that made you laugh until you cried I hope you're feeling happy now Just because you feel good Doesn't make you right, oh no Just because you feel good Still want you here tonight, want you Oh, no Just because you feel good Doesn't make you right, oh no Just because you feel good Still want you here tonight, want you Just because you feel good Doesn't make you right, oh no Just because you feel good Still want you here tonight, want you I wonder what you're doing now I hope you're feeling happy now I wonder what you're doing now I hope you're feeling happy now

[@DemonKitty666_]

This sums up a breakup nicely. I listened to this on repeat crying my eyes out after a 2 year relationship ended back in July. I was devastated, lost and alone. It was my longest ever relationship. I swore off love because I was scared of getting hurt again... Then a knight in shiny emo locks rescued me and I feel more human than ever!
