Giving the album three out of four stars, People magazine said "these boys know how to give today's country-pop fans what they want."[4] Rolling Stone said "These Buffett-style party boys know what makes them the biggest group alive: songs about trucks and songs about girls," and gave the album three out of five stars.[5] Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic, who also gave the album a three-out-of-five rating, said "Everything on Still Feels Good sounds fine[…]but few songs stand out and grab attention".[6] Entertainment Weekly critic Ken Tucker gave the album a C rating, saying "this is emo-country arena rock with a (slight) twang[…]the music of Still Feels Good presents not beautiful losers but manipulative wimps."[7] A positive review came from Ken Tucker of Billboard, who wrote that the band "takes some convincing new detours". His review highlighted "Winner at a Losing Game", "She Goes All the Way", "Bob That Head" and "It's Not Supposed to Go Like That" as sounding different from previous Rascal Flatts songs.[3]Chart performanceAlbumThe album sold 547,000 copies in its first week of release, topping both the U.S. Country Album chart and the Billboard 200. It is their third consecutive album to hit number one in the U.S.[8] After one week at number one, it fell to number two with about 168,000 copies sold.[9] Still Feels Good sold 2,192,000 copies in the United States up to May 2009[10] was certified 2× Platinum by the RIAA.
SinglesStill Feels Good produced five singles on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs charts.

Byron sued Rascal Flatts, their producers, and the Disney Music Group for copyright infringement, arguing that "No Reins" took from his song "Shadows of the Night", written for Pat Benatar in 1982. Byron told The New York Post that "[i]t's just too much, too strikingly similar... They'd have to have a tremendous lapse of memory not to realize what they were doing. It's my contention there's willful infringement." Lawyers for band member Joe Don Rooney have responded, "To the extent that 'No Reins' shares any similarities with the plaintiff's alleged copyrighted work, any such similarities between the two works are the result of coincidence and/or the use of common or trite ideas". New York University Law School professor and intellectual property expert Rochelle Dreyfuss has remarked that "[t]hey certainly sound alike" and compared to situation to The Chiffons' famously successful case against George Harrison.[13][14] References1. ^What Sold the Most {{Rascal Flatts}}2. ^{{cite AV media notes |title=Still Feels Good |others=Rascal Flatts |year=2007 |publisher=Lyric Street Records |id=000038402}} 3. ^1 {{cite journal|last=Tucker|first=Ken|date=6 October 2007|title=Reviews|journal=Billboard|page=47|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=lQ4EAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA47&dq=%22winner+at+a+losing+game%22&hl=en&sa=X&ei=vrNoT_mOIK71sQKrnZyZCQ&ved=0CDwQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=%22winner%20at%20a%20losing%20game%22&f=false}} 4. ^1 Arnold, Chuck (2007-10-15), "Still Feels Good".
