Good for Me (song)

1992 single by Amy Grant
the Amy Grant song

"Good for Me" is a song by American singer songwriter Amy Grant, released as the sixth overall single from her Heart in Motion album. It was her fourth consecutive top five Adult Contemporary single and top 10 Hot 100 single in the United States, reaching numbers four and eight, respectively. In the United Kingdom, it peaked at number 60.

The song is in major scale and uses the subtonic chord. Grant included Mario Andretti's name in the lyrics, and subsequently was invited to sit in the Andretti family skybox at the 1992 Indianapolis 500.

Two music videos exist for "Good for Me". In the original video clip, Amy Grant frolicks and dances with another female, who was meant to be portrayed as a childhood friend of Grant's. However, once the video was completed, Grant reportedly felt that her intended message was lost and that the video had been edited in a way to make it appear as though she and her friend were lovers. The original version of the video was directed by D. J. Webster and edited by Scott C. Wilson. Grant enlisted the help of actor/model Jme Stein, who had played her boyfriend in the video for "Baby Baby," to shoot a new video clip for "Good for Me". The new clip for the song was also directed by D. J. Webster. The second version depicts Grant dealing with her boyfriend's popularity with women. The original "Good for Me" video did appear on first pressings of the companion VHS video compilation to Heart in Motion, but only the second video was featured on the 2004 DVD collection Greatest Videos 1986–2004.
