"Goodnight Kiss" is a song recorded by American country music artist Randy Houser. It was released in September 2013 as the third single from his third studio album, How Country Feels . [1] Houser wrote the song with Rob Hatch and Jason Sellers. [2]
Billy Dukes of Taste of Country gave the song a favorable review, writing that "Houser’s softer side comes through on this mid-tempo love song." [3] Bobby Peacock of Roughstock also gave the song a favorable review, saying that "But even if the lyrics aren't anything to write home about, they're still familiar and sincerely sung. Randy is usually a bit of a belter, but the verses allow him to tone it down before going full-force on the chorus, thus allowing a little more color to his sturdy voice than usual. The production is a bit loud, but not to the point of distraction. [4]
The music video was directed by Wes Edwards and premiered in October 2014.
"Goodnight Kiss" debuted at number 59 on the U.S. Billboard Country Airplay chart for the week of September 28, 2013.
