Gorillaz - Feel Good Inc

"Feel Good Inc." is an alternative rock song by British virtual band Gorillaz. The song features rap verses by De La Soul and showcases the band's alternative hip hop influences, while also containing elements of drum and bass and funk rock. The lyrical themes of the song revolve around isolation and escapism.

The song was the lead single from the band's second studio album Demon Days on 9 May 2005. The single peaked at No. 2 in the United Kingdom and No. 14 in the United States, the band's highest chart positions to date. It also topped the Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart in the U.S. for eight consecutive weeks, a first for the band. This is the only song in Damon Albarn's career to reach the top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100. It peaked in the top 10 in 17 countries, reaching No. 1 in Spain. The song was listed in Pitchfork Media and Rolling Stone's Best Songs of the 2000s. The song won Best Pop Collaboration at the 2006 Grammy Awards.[2] In an interview during promotion for The Singles Collection 2001–2011, Murdoc described it as "the song that launched a million iPods" and "[our] first song ever to chart on downloads alone, infamous soundtrack to the iPod advert, Grammy award winner, backing track for Madonna's first holographic poledance."[3] This song has surpassed "Clint Eastwood" to be Gorillaz's most successful single worldwide.

In an interview from Gorillaz' "iTunes Session" in 2010, band member 2D states that the inspiration for the song came from the time he was "passing the wind turbines out near Palm Springs. He believed he was going to the Coachella festival or something, and he passed a huge field full of those wind turbines farming the land ... so he started really with the chorus section and then built it up from there."[3]
