Songfacts®:

  • This rocker is the second single from American hard rock band Saving Abel's sophomore album, Miss America. The song also features on the video game Grand Theft Auto 4.
  • Like Saving Abel's breakthrough single "Addicted," the message of this song is one of blunt sexual honesty. Lead singer Jared Weeks explained on the band's website: "'Sex Is Good' is kinda of a story of a bad boy gone even worse! But the important message in the song is about the honesty. Seriously, think about how many times in our lives that we have all been those relationships where the bed room is the only ounce of excitement some of us have, thus out comes the truth! We have all said it at one point another..... That's right, I'm not in Love but the SEX is good."
