Black Sabbath is a seminal British hard rock/heavy metal band, originally comprising John "Ozzy" Osbourne (vocals), Frank Anthony Iommi (guitar), Terence "Geezer" Butler (bass), and Bill Ward (drums). They are cited by many as having helped pioneer the Heavy Metal genre in the early 1970s. Black Sabbath formed in Birmingham, England in 1968 under the name Polka Tulk Blues Band (soon shortened to "Polka Tulk"), and later Earth. Initially a blues-rock band, Earth moved in a darker direction when their bassist, Geezer Butler, a fan of the black magic novels of Dennis Wheatley, wrote an occult-themed song titled "Black Sabbath" (the song name was apparently inspired by a 1963 Mario Bava film). (In their reunion concert film, the band stated that the song is based on an experience Geezer had one night when he saw a black object at the end of his bed and noticed the next day that an occult book Ozzy had given him was missing).

Feels Good To Me Lyrics
Black Sabbath
The chapter is opened and the pages are turned
The writings say many things but who was concerned
Where can we run to now, when will we learn?
When its lost its gone forever
For years they told me what I should do
Down to the places to go and who should I talk to
But that dont matter no more since I found out the truth
And it feels good to me
The world is turnin
Forever turnin
Forever yearnin
For the love of life
And youre wrong if you think that Im afraid to love
I wonder, I wonder does it not seem strange to you
Just how the tables have turned on me and you?
How long can we go on livin, livin the way we do?
When its lost its gone forever
It feels good to me.....
