"Sure Feels Good" is a song written and recorded by Ultrabeat and Darren Styles, released as a single in 2007. It was the first Styles/Ultrabeat collaboration since Ultrabeat covered "Pretty Green Eyes" and "Feelin' Fine" in 2003. The vocals are by Rebecca Rudd, also the singer on "Elysium (I Go Crazy)".

The song was originally a hardcore track, written and recorded by Styles & Re-Con with vocalist Rebecca Rudd in 2006. Rudd had previously worked with Ultrabeat and Mike Di Scala in the past, for example the vocals on "Elysium (I Go Crazy)". In 2007, the song was re-recorded with another verse added and re-produced by Ultrabeat and Darren Styles.

The Styles & Re-Con hardcore mix first appeared on the Clubland X-Treme Hardcore 3 compilation album in 2006. In June 2007, the Ultrabeat versus Darren Styles version was released on Promo CD and Promo 12" Vinyl and the Rezonance Q remix was included on Clubland 11.

"Sure Feels Good" was released as a Download EP on 20 August 2007 and as a Maxi CD and 12" Vinyl one week later. It peaked at a chart position of #52 on the UK Singles Chart, which was considered low compared to the #8 UK Albums Chart position of Ultrabeat - The Album a few weeks later. The song was also included on Darren Styles's #4 album Skydivin' in 2008.

Also, "Sure Feels Good" won the 2007 Eurodanceweb Award for song of the year, as voted for by over 150 DJs, producers and music journalists. It was the UK entry for this award, and competed with entries from 41 European countries.
