It's A Real Good Feeling
David Hasselhoff Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Leap me in mysteries way
You make feel like a new man
It's like I'm born once again
Mmm-mmm, it's you
I know it's you
Tangle me up in your chain
You make me this slave of your love
Life feels like heaven above
Mmm-mmm, it's you
Forever you
And it's a real good feeling
You got me rockin' and reelin'
You got me beggin' and stealin'
Oh, for your sweet love
And it's a real good feeling
You got me rockin' and reelin'
You got me beggin' and stealin'
For your sweet love
Magic is filling the air
I need you, you know that I care
You are the one I adore
Leavin' me begging from home
Mmm-mmm, it's you
I know it's you
But it's a real good feeling
You got me rockin' and reelin'
You got me beggin' and stealin'
Oh, for your sweet love
And it's a real good feeling
You got me rockin' and reelin'
You got me beggin' and stealin'
For your sweet love
And it's a real good feeling
You got me rockin' and reelin'
You got me beggin' and stealin'
Oh, for your sweet love
And it's a real good feeling
You got me rockin' and reelin'
You got me beggin' and stealin'
Oh, for your sweet love
But it's a real good feeling
You got me rockin' and reelin'
You got me beggin' and stealin'
Oh, for your sweet love
But it's a real good feeling
You got me rockin' and reelin'
You got me beggin' and stealin'
Oh, for your sweet love
But it's a real good feeling
You got me rockin' and reelin'
In David Hasselhoff's song "It's A Real Good Feeling," the lyrics tell the story of a man who is deeply in love and mesmerized by his significant other. The first verse describes how this person has transformed his life by turning his "night into days" and making him feel like a new man. The use of such a phrase hints at the idea that the person's love interest has brought light into his life and has given him the motivation to keep pushing forward.
The second verse is more heartfelt and emotional, expressing the pain and pleasure involved in being in love with someone. It depicts how his lover has become his master, and he is now a slave to their love, and yet he still feels like he is in heaven. The repeated "mmm-mmm, it's you" emphasizes the intensity of the man's feelings and how he is unable to control or resist them.
Finally, the chorus takes a turn and becomes more upbeat, describing the happiness this person's love brings him. He is "rockin' and reelin'" and "beggin' and stealin'" for his "sweet love." The use of such words shows the extent to which he is willing to go for the person he loves.
Overall, this song is a love anthem that describes the myriad of emotions one feels when deeply in love.

+Bett Pike I know the feeling! I'm a fan of rock and alternative usually but anything he sings seems to just be 'right' in an unspecified way! Plus he's a legend.

Viele mögen ihn belächeln, aber er hat definitv eine gute Stimme und kann singen!

nicht direkt belächeln. Was mich betrifft, er zaubert mir ein Lachen auf dem Lippen. Mir gehts derzeit ziemlich beschissen. Und kaum habe ich ihn eingeschaltet, gehts mir gleich viel besser.
