Do you know the names of these 80's songs?

I was trying to find a few songs on itunes, but it is very hard to do without the name of the song!

I know the chorus of one goes:

I'm doing alright
getting good grades
my future's so bright
I gotta wear shades! Cool

The other one I know even less of the chorus:

You can feel it all over!
You can feel it all over people!

It sounds like Stevie Wonder singing but I don't think it is really him. There is a lot of catchy trumpet played in it.

So, does anyone out there have a clue as to what I am talking about? Rolling Eyes

Good morning steptapper!

Maybe you're looking for Joe Walsh:

Life's Been Good

I have a mansion, forget the price
Ain't never been there, they tell me it's nice
I live in hotels, tear out the walls
I have accountants pay for it all
They say I'm crazy but I have a good time
I'm just looking for clues at the scene of the crime
Life's been good to me so far
My Maserati does one-eighty-five
I lost my license, now I don't drive
I have a limo, ride in the back
I lock the doors in case I'm attacked
I make hit records, my fans they can't wait
They write me letters, tell me I'm great
So I got me an office, gold records on the wall
Just leave a message, maybe I'll call
Lucky I'm sane after all I've been through
(Everybody say I'm cool......He's cool)
I can't complain but sometimes I still do
Life's been good to me so far
I go to parties, sometimes until four
It's hard to leave when you can't find the door
It's tough to handle this fortune and fame
Everybody's so different, I haven't changed
They say I'm lazy but it takes all my time
(Everybody say Oh, yeah..... Oh, yeah)
I keep on goin guess I'll never know why
Life's been good to me so far
Yeah, yeah, yeah
