“Good” by Twin XL

"Good" was the calling card for Twin XL, the American synthpop outfit built around Cameron Walker, John Gomez and Stephen Gomez, and the lead single from their debut, How to Talk to Strangers. It was among the first songs the three wrote together, knocked out in a matter of hours, and it sounds like it: a hangover tune with its sunglasses on. As they told it, they had all just crawled out of a long weekend of late nights with friends, and the song turned into a catalogue of everything people do to make themselves feel good.

Walker sings and plays guitar, John Gomez adds guitar and keys, Stephen Gomez holds down the bass, and both Gomezes stack up the backing vocals. Alternative radio picked it up in April 2019, SiriusXM's Alt Nation among the stations, a stripped-down take followed that year, and the Spotify streams climbed past 5 million.
