“Feeling Alright” by Traffic
“Feeling Alright” by Traffic appears on 12 radio countdowns from 4 stations between 2002 and 2026. Its best result is #64 on the WZLX Memorial 500 (2002). In the combined RockLists rankings it is #976 classic rock song of all time.
Traffic's "Feelin' Alright?", often listed as "Feeling Alright", came from Dave Mason and landed on the band's self-titled 1968 album, with Jimmy Miller producing. It's a folk-rock tune with a question mark built into its title, and it deserved better than it got as a single: it missed the UK chart and the Hot 100 altogether, getting only as far as number 123 on the Bubbling Under chart.
The song found its audience anyway. Joe Cocker's version on his 1969 album With a Little Help from My Friends was the one that charted in America, and Traffic's original has had a second life on screen, turning up alongside Cocker's in the 2012 film Flight.
