“Felt Good About You” is the first track from Gracie Abrams’ 2024 album, The Secret of Us, which was released on June 21st 2024. The song delves into the complexities of a romantic relationship that begins with high hopes but gradually unravels into disappointment and regret.

The song can be seen as a continuation from her debut album, Good Riddance, and its closing track, “The blue”, in which Abrams falls in love with someone and is happy about the relationship, thus “feeling good” about this person. Good Riddance had depressive themes, with “The blue” changing that motif. “Felt Good About You” can bring back those themes as the title is a past tense of “I feel good about you.”

On May 11, 2024, the song title was first introduced and teased by the Abrams on Instagram stories, along with other tracks from the mentioned album. Additionally, on May 23, 2024, Gracie Abrams HQ posted a link for “The Secret of Us Group Chats” encompassing different tracklists with lyrics written on each text. This includes the lyric “I had less than half of something,“ which can be found in the bridge.
