The Feeling
Band Horsham United Kingdom Formed 2005 English rock/pop band
The Feeling formed in 2005 in Horsham, United Kingdom. The Feeling has 3 chart appearances on 1 radio countdown from 1 station on RockLists, spanning 2006. The most successful song on radio countdowns is “Fill My Little World”, which appears on 1 list with a best position of #149. The station that charted The Feeling most often is Virgin Radio (United Kingdom), with 3 appearances.
The Feeling came out of Horsham in Sussex with a fistful of sunny, big-hearted pop-rock songs. Their first single, "Fill My Little World", slipped out in a limited run in late 2005, and in February 2006 "Sewn" gave them a proper launch, crashing into the UK Singles Chart at number 7 after Dermot O'Leary gave it its first UK spin on Radio 2. It went on to become one of the most-played songs on British radio that year.
Dan Gillespie Sells sings with a choirboy's clarity, Kevin Jeremiah on guitar and Ciaran Jeremiah on keys stack up the hooks, and Richard Jones on bass and Paul Stewart on drums keep the rhythm tidy underneath. The debut, Twelve Stops and Home, arrived in the UK in June 2006, with "Never Be Lonely" among its gleaming singalongs, and landed in America the following February. Even the name is a small romance: Jones spotted it on a neon sign over a Paris bar called Le Feeling.
The band kept going well past the debut. Join with Us topped the UK Albums Chart in 2008, and Together We Were Made, Boy Cried Wolf, a self-titled record and Loss. Hope. Love. followed.
