feeling good
Enjoying one's mood
Feeling good describes a state of physical comfort, emotional contentment, or general well-being.
The phrase works as both a casual response to "How are you?" and a description of positive sensations: I'm feeling good about my chances.
It can range from mild satisfaction to euphoria, and sometimes serves as a euphemism for being tipsy or high.
James Brown's 1965 hit "I Got You (I Feel Good)" helped cement the phrase in popular culture as an expression of exuberant happiness.
