"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]

Critical reception

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]

Music video

The music video was directed by Wes Edwards and premiered in January 2014.
