The Feeling is a five-member soft rock/pop band from Sussex and London. They are AMAZING. Ahem.

The members are:

Dan Gillespie Spells- guitar and vocals
Richard Jones - bass & vocals
Kevin Jeremiah - guitar & vocals
Ciaran Jeremiah - keyboards & vocals
Paul Stewart - drums

They got the name from a bar in Paris. They thought it was a really dumb name for a bar but a really good name for a band. So they used it. They recently released their first album, Twelve Stops and Home. The album has three singles so far. The first one (Fill My Little World) came out in Novemember 7, 2005 but it was limited and failed.

They released a second one, Sewn, on February 27, 2006. It's a really good song and it has a great video. Kind of creepy with the string and blankets and shoelaces coming to life, but it totally fits the song.

Their latest single, Never Be Lonely, came out on August 28, 2006. I finally got to watch the video a few nights ago. It's so sweet. And I love Dan's quirky facial expressions. It sounds kind of country-westernish in the beginning and they're all dressed as cowboys and stuff. =P.

They are set to release another single on November 20,2006. Which is exactly next week. I can't wait. The Feeling is signed to Island Records. They are so cool!!! Yeah...

Other stuff about the band:

Dan is pretty cute. The first time I heard them was when I saw Sewn and I really, really loved the way he moved his eyebrows and face and stuff. All of them have awesome voices. But Dan's is like velvet. *teenie for the frontman*

However, unfortunately for people like me, the daydreams are ruined because he's gay. Yup, he's gay. He stated it in a magazine that he's gay and that gay nightlife in Soho is weird. His mom is a lesbian. Apparently, when he went to school, it was the first time he found out that not everyone has two moms and a dad. O_o.

*sigh*

Listen to their songs. You'll love them, I swear. The songs are so, so good. Especially in Never Be Lonely where the lyrics go "B-b-b-baby, I think I'm going c-c-crazy! Why should I be sane without you? They told me to fight it, but they can bloody well just try it! I'll never be the same without you."

I want to see how they are in concert.

I like the songs.
But one of the guys looks like a hobbit... Ciaran Jeremiah. Yeah... him.
And in the live performances Dan Gillespie Spells is hilarious! Esp those on those lines you quoted from Never Be Lonely!. Didnt know he was gay though. Good for him!

Annnnnd Richard Jones is married to Sophie Ellis Bextor of 'Murder On The Dancefloor' and Groovejet's 'If This Aint Love', fame. They have a 2 year old called Sonny.
Happy days!

The guy with the weird goatee right? I think he's the keyboardist/pianist guy. He has a strange beard. My grandma made fun of him.

I saw The Feeling play in my hometown literally the day before they hit Top of the Pops and consequently went huge. Not bad. Nothing special.

My sister bought their CD a couple of months back so I stuck it on my mp3 and found myself listening to it more and more. It's really good!

I had no idea Dan Gillespie-Sells was gay so thats come as a shock to me -does anyone think that in the vid for 'Never Be Lonely' he is borderline looking like Hitler??? Shocked all he needs is the tiny tash!
And yes one of them looks like a hobbit I said the exact same think to my sis haha!
Anyway looks aside I think they are a great band.

My fave song at the moment is 'I Want You Now' as it's the kind of situation I'm in and it's a well catchy number! Cool

I reeeally like The Feeling. Their stuff makes me feel good and Sewn is a wicked track.

My friend doesn't like them 'cause he thinks they're too 'boy band-ish', but i kind of like that about them. Atleast their different, and atleast they have feel good music.

I like 'Kettle's On' as well. I always find myself singing that without realising 0_o

Are you sure?

Apart from the Hobbit, the rest have a slight resemblence to some jumped up little model type.
Not a hair out of place, unless it was styled that 'messy-but-not' way, designer stubble, them bloody skinny jeans!!!! Grrr.....

Like they could have just stepped off some reality t.v show... Britain's Next Top Boyband, or something.
Sorry- I went off on a tangent. Embarassed

I feel theyre just a little too polished.

Well...okay, yeah. But they're not all super-hottlol or anything. Dan's the only one that looks even remotely cute but he's gay and as Hannah said, bears a slight resemblence to ol' Adolf.
