Reception
Paul Grein of Billboard described the song as "an affectionate tribute to the power of music." The same magazine later described the song as an "upbeat track which is totally rock 'n' roll," praising the "clear singing" and "fresh sounds." Cash Box said it has "those Boston characteristics that has made the group a platinum act: tight-skin percussion, majestic guitar lines and do-the-job soaring vocals." Cash Box also called it a "fine track." Record World called it "one of most powerful rockers" and praised the guitar playing, Brad Delp's lead vocal and the "multi -track vocal hook."Terry Hazlett of The Observer-Reporter described the song as an "innocent little " which comes across like a "rock 'n' roll anthem." Pete Bishop of The Pittsburgh Press claimed that it has "an infectious happy feel." But Press & Sun-Bulletin critic Chris Carson described "Feelin' Satisfied" as being "on par with the filler" on Boston's debut album.
