"I'm Doin' Fine Now" is a song by American R&B group New York City. Released in 1973 by Chelsea Records from their debut album, I'm Doin' Fine Now (1973), the song reached number 17 on the US Billboard Hot 100, number eight on the Billboard Easy Listening chart, number 20 on the UK Singles Chart and number 26 on the Canadian RPM Top Singles chart. It was the 46th most successful song of 1973 in the US.
When it debuted on Casey Kasem's American Top 40 on April 28, 1973, Kasem remarked that the members of the band were keeping their "day jobs" until they were sure that the band was going to be a big success. At the time of the record's debut on the Top 40, Tim McQueen was a systems analyst at a New York City bank, Claude W. Johnson serviced juke boxes in Harlem, John Brown was an apprentice engineer at a record company, and Edward Schell drove a New York City taxicab.
