Embracing Solitude and Self-Sufficiency in Zedd's 'Good Thing'

Zedd's 'Good Thing' featuring Kehlani is a celebration of self-sufficiency and contentment with one's own company. The lyrics convey a strong message of independence, as the protagonist indulges in activities typically associated with wealth and luxury, such as dining at exclusive restaurants and driving fast cars, but does so alone, emphasizing a preference for solitude over social interaction. The repeated assertion of enjoying one's own company suggests a deep sense of self-acceptance and the ability to find joy without the need for external validation or companionship.

The song also touches on the societal expectation that everyone will eventually find a romantic partner who will change their perspective on being alone. However, the lyrics challenge this notion by expressing a lack of urgency or desire to find such a person. The protagonist is not closed off to the possibility of meeting someone significant but is also not actively seeking it, as they feel fulfilled with what they already have. This perspective is refreshing in a cultural landscape that often prioritizes romantic relationships as the key to happiness.

Moreover, 'Good Thing' can be seen as an anthem for those who find strength in independence. It's a reminder that the 'best things in life' are not necessarily tied to other people or external achievements but can be found within oneself. The song encourages listeners to recognize and celebrate their own worth, achievements, and the joy of their own company, challenging the common narrative that happiness is dependent on others.
