"Good Feeling" comes from Violent Femmes' self-titled 1983 album, and it's the moment the band lets the nerves drop and the tenderness show. Gordon Gano wrote the words and music, and producer Mark Van Hecke sat in on piano, adding a touch of warmth. Glenn Lorbiecki and John Tanner engineered. It's hushed, aching and plainly sincere, and it lingers long after the last note.
