Kids In Glass Houses – Have A Good Time [Single + Video]

Kids in Glass Houses go deep into ‘80s nostalgia on “Have a Good Time,” rolling out a slick mix of rock, disco-funk, and blue-eyed soul with a retro touch-up. Produced by Adam “Cecil” Bartlett and band member Iain Mahanty, the track is a groovy, pop-laced riff on fun, pulling listeners straight into an electro-acoustic pulse anchored by slap bass and snappy guitar strums. With a polished beat and shiny synth horns reminiscent of Peter Gabriel’s pop heights, it’s a track with a wink, keeping things playful while layering up the throwback details.

This cut plays with upbeat vibes while slipping in a quiet critique. Front man Aled Phillips throws it out there: “What flavor are ya vaping?/ How does anybody choose?/ Blueberry on Sunday, Disneyland for awful news,” highlighting how our culture’s saturated with options—even down to picking what strain of smoke pairs best with a given situation. And when he says, “Please just remember, have a good time,” it’s less a suggestion and more a way to chop down the noise. All the while, the bass-heavy, synth-glazed beat gives a groove worth hanging onto without a hint of restraint.



In the video, the band’s lead singer struts into a tired-looking community center, delivering the song on stage as bandmates pop up here and there, dancing and jamming solo in equally quirky style. From dim looks to break-out smiles, each scene hops back and forth between indifference and joy, wrapping the track’s laid-back message in an easygoing, almost careless vibe that says “relax—don’t overthink it.”

Whether it’s a knowing nod to the little things we let hold us back or just a call to keep it light, “Have a Good Time” works like a reminder from an old friend—make space for a little fun when you can, and maybe don’t worry so much about the rest.
