Based in Orlando, FL, 4:2:Five has been shattering the a cappella stereotype since 2000 with their powerful performances across the U.S. Evolving from a street corner barbershop sound, and drawing on funk, rock, jazz, and blues-4:2:Five is unlike any musical experience on Earth, recreating an entire instrumental band with nothing but 5 mics and 5 voices with a style and charisma all their own. "Challenging the boundaries of contemporary music is what this group is all about," says Geoff Castellucci, "nothing we do is ordinary", this sentiment is echoed by 4:2:Five's legions of fans and "best live act" win at the 2001 Florida Peoples Music Awards. 4:2:Five has also performed at the Orlando International Fringe Festival, on several 100,000 watt radio stations and was featured as the trailer for Orlando� own 102 jams FM morning show. 4:2:Five had the honor of winning Ed Mcmahons international internet based talent competition www.nextbigstar.com, and can be seen on a nationally televised commercial promoting Nextbigstar.com. 4:2:Five is also the reigning Mid-Atlantic Harmony Sweeps Champion and was honored to be a National Harmony Sweepstakes finalist. In addition, 4:2:Five has worked extensively for Disney and performed at dozens of corporate venues, theaters, and schools. Amongst a musical landscape of imitators and manufactured acts, 4:2:Five is blazing new trails and winning the hearts and imaginations of audiences big and small and of every race, creed, sex, and age.
To categorize their approach to recording as innovative would be an understatement. The clarity of their harmonies, melodies, and the interdependence of their vocal performances render 4:2:Five akin to a professionally orchestrated band, minus the instruments. Their focus on the combination of rhythm and melody where the latter takes precedence, but does not overshadow the former, have helped to create some intensely infectious tunes, which are sure to open the door for a cappella to gain a more prestigious commercial foothold on the musical marketplace. Songs such as "Look at Me" and "Why do You" epitomize the originality and surprising lyrical depth of this talented Fivesome. For 4:2:Five, the future is now, with their current album's "EP" and "Time Machine" being sold across the nation at live performances, and their latest CD, "Unstoppable" slated for release this winter.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Telling me that she's gone
Now we've been down this road
A million times before
'Cause it's a sweet sensation
Thinking of all that hot temptation
You know it's going right where you want
I keep breaking my own rules playing your love fool
Trying to forget about the consequence
We keep saying we should and yeah we know we could stop
But really what it all comes down to is
It feels so good
It feels so good when I'm in your arms
Don't you know, it feels so good
It feels so good, it feels so good
You say it's dangerous
You don't wanna be exposed
But I know you're like a mess
And you're not gonna let it go
But it's a sweet sensation thinking of all that hot temptation
I can't stop, you know it's going right where you want
Yeah yo know what's going on
I keep breaking my own rules playing your love fool
Trying to forget about the consequence
We keep saying we should and yeah we know we could stop
But really what it all comes down to is
It feels so good
It feels so good when I'm in your arms
Don't you know, it feels so good
It feels so good, it feels so good
It feels so good, feel so good
Just move with me
Move with me, move with me
Oh, won't you move with me?
Move with me, move with me
I keep breaking my own rules playing your love fool
Trying to forget about the consequence
We keep saying we should and yeah we know we could stop
But really what it all comes down to is
It feels so good
It feels so good when I'm in your arms
Don't you know, it feels so good
It feels so good, it feels so good
In "I Feel Good," 4:2:Five describes an on-and-off relationship with someone who keeps leaving and coming back. The singer answers a call from their lover, saying that she's gone again, but instead of feeling upset, the singer feels excited by the prospect of temptation. The title phrase repeats throughout the song: the singer feels so good when they're in their partner's arms, even though they know it's dangerous and they're breaking their own rules.
The lyrics convey a push-and-pull between the thrill of attraction and the fear of consequences. The singer knows that giving in to their desires could have negative consequences, but they keep playing the "love fool" and giving in to the temptation. They keep making promises to themselves to stop, knowing that the cycle will likely repeat, but ultimately they can't resist the sweet sensation of being with the person they so desire.
4:2:Five's "I Feel Good" is a poignant reflection of the precariousness of love, and how the thrill of temptation can be both irresistible and dangerous. It speaks to the power of attraction, and the difficulties of breaking free from something that feels so good.
