LYRICS
There was a time I was down, down
I didn't know what to do
I was just stumbling around, around
Thinking things could not improve
I couldn't look on the bright side
Of anything at all
That's when you gave me a call...
And I feel better
Better
Better than before
Now I'm not down anymore
There were times I was sure, so sure
I couldn't turn it around
I couldn't care anymore
About the good things I found
That's when you gave me a reason
To make me smile again
I only have to see you and then
I feel better
Better
Better than before
Now I'm not down anymore
Life sometimes seems to get the best of you
Like everything just brings you down
Just when you think
There's nothing you can do
A friendly face will bring you around
And you'll feel better
Better
Better than before
You'll feel better
Much better
You won't be down anymore

It's amazing how much variety Gotye's songs have. Just listen to this compared to Heart's A Mess, Eyes Wide Open, Thanks For Your Time, and his most famous song, Somebody That I Used To Know. Truly one of the most underrated and best musicians out there

After 16 years of depression, after turning 25, It finally cleared. The grey skies of my mind, the doubt of my heart, the ache in my soul. This song explains the feeling I have now as I take on life. The life that I wanted to try for, for so very long. I feel much better! I won't be down anymore! No matter that obstacles come at me now, loss, devastation, bring it on!

This is probably Gotye at his best; when he sounds like something from Motown. I love it. :D

this song has been like a blister in my ears. I keep hearing it, and it won't go away until I listen to it again. I love his vocals and the soul that is translated. It's pure joy, and always makes me 'Feel Better' The digital horns are messy but somehow never that big a problem for me.

Gotye, thank you for this song. I've been having a rough time, but whenever I put this song on it honestly lifts my spirits. No other song has made such an emotional impact on me like this. I know you'll probably never read this, but thank you for your amazing talent you have shared with the world.

This is the kind of music that in the future will be timeless classics.

You'll feel better, much better
No you won't get down any more

Nice Motown vibes from the 60's

If I didn't know who he was, I would have thought this song came out in the 60's

This reminds me of like old Marvin Gaye. How have i never heard this song before?
24 |
His videos remind me of the great Peter Gabriel and his vocals sound both like Sting and Steve Winwood. On top of that there is also something in the music that reminds me of Phil Collins.

The first thing i noticed about this song was how close it was to the Motown sound. I do not hear enough tambourines anymore. Anyway, I was surprised to find out that it's Gotye.

I think Gotye is the only artist who could pull this off nowadays. Motown but...different. SO uplifting!!! LOVE IT!!!

It's so amazing how every song of him sounds different. I hardly recognize him every time! I Love that

This man should've been massively famous, he has a fantastic voice and is so talented with instruments - like the next Edgar Winter :D

gotye is actually one of the most diverse bands i've ever heard...this is awesome

It's amazing how every single one of Gotye's songs sounds different. That's the mark of an amazing musical artist. Gotye has restored my faith in modern music

5 years or so with these comments. Just thought I'd add. This song comes on at my local Big Lots and I was caught off guard the first time I heard it come on.

I literally thought this was from the early 60s for the first four months I worked at my job and I kept hearing this song. Unreal.
