Feels So Good (feat. Nadia Ali)
Armin Van Buuren
The Irresistible Allure of Forbidden Love
Armin Van Buuren's track 'Feels So Good,' featuring Nadia Ali, delves into the intoxicating and often tumultuous nature of forbidden love. The song opens with a conversation about a breakup, setting the stage for a narrative that explores the cyclical nature of a relationship that both parties know is fraught with complications. Despite the repeated attempts to end things, the allure of the 'sweet sensation' and 'hot temptation' keeps pulling them back together. This is a classic tale of love that defies logic and reason, driven by an irresistible physical and emotional connection.
The lyrics highlight the internal conflict experienced by the lovers. Lines like 'I keep breaking my own rules playing your love fool' and 'Trying to forget about the consequence' reveal a struggle between desire and rationality. They are fully aware of the potential fallout and the 'dangerous' nature of their relationship, yet they find it impossible to resist each other. The repeated refrain 'It feels so good' underscores the powerful, almost addictive nature of their bond, suggesting that the pleasure they derive from being together outweighs any negative consequences.
Musically, the song's upbeat tempo and infectious melody complement its lyrical content, creating an atmosphere that mirrors the highs and lows of the relationship. Armin Van Buuren, known for his mastery in electronic dance music, uses pulsating beats and euphoric synths to amplify the emotional intensity of the song. Nadia Ali's sultry vocals add an extra layer of allure, making the listener feel the magnetic pull between the lovers. The song captures the essence of a love that is as exhilarating as it is perilous, making it a relatable anthem for anyone who has ever been caught in the throes of a passionate but complicated relationship.
