'Feel Good Inc.' was one of the first things we did. Damon had this to say about it "I'd heard The Grey Album, and I needed a producer, so I just rang him up. Damon was so impressed that he invited Danger Mouse to work on Demon Days. Some time after the demo was created, co-creator Damon Albarn heard Danger Mouses Grey Album, a mix of Jay Z and The Beetles. The demo and original song feature the Demon Days Band. (Noodle's Demo)", featured on the Japanese version of Gorillaz 2007 B-Side album, D-Sides. The first version of the song was made in 2004, entitled " Feel Good Inc. It was also one of the songs covered by Kidz Bop for the ninth album, and the only Gorillaz song covered by the group, although it was controversial among fans.

"Feel Good Inc." makes an appearance in Dance Dance Revolution Hottest Party 3 on Wii, Sing Star Pop! on PlayStation 2 and Grand Theft Auto 5 on Xbox One, Playstation 4 and PC Versions, Guitar Hero 5 on Xbox 360, the 2006 movie Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker, and was part of Weird Al Yankovic's "Polkarama". The feel of the B-sides was more free and experimental than that of those that had appeared on 'Demon Days' - showcasing another side to the Gorillaz sound.

In the UK, due to a loophole in the chart rules, "Feel Good Inc." was able to enter the charts before its official release because the record company released 300 copies of the 7-inch single format, meaning that legal downloads would count towards a chart placing for the single (this was because, according to UK chart rules at that time, download sales contributed to chart placings, but only if a physical format was also available).Ī total of 4 new and original songs were available across formats, although the song " Murdoc is God" was only included on the Japanese CD, where it was released as an EP instead of as a single, similar to other songs from Phase 2.
In the US, aided by an iPod commercial featuring the song, and presence on the latest successful "Now" compilation, "Feel Good Inc." took Gorillaz to a whole new level - the track peaked just outside the top 10 in the Billboard Top 100, and it was also top of the Modern Rock charts for a 3 week spell.
"Feel Good Inc." charted high in most European countries (including an at-the-time career best of #2 in England, accompanied by a chart run to rival Clint Eastwood's 4 years before).
