Off the back of releasing a stellar new album Loss. Hope. Love and still riding high from the soundtrack for the smash musical Everybody’s Talking About Jamie, composed by Dan Gillespie Sells, Ivor Novello award-winning band The Feeling have released ‘Love People’ – the latest track from the record that’s out now on Island Records – back where it all started in 2006 for their Top 3 debut album Twelve Stops and Home.
Led by piano and fueled by a pulsing beat from the get-go, ‘Love People’ oozes positivity. The band’s new-found identity is at the forefront, wrapped in hopeful storytelling and backed by uplifting melodies. Exploding into Queen-like glory, the song is a joyous, stunning pop ballad. Listen to ‘Love People’ HERE.
“‘Love People’ is about maintaining hope and embracing fallibility,” says Dan. “Humans get it wrong most of the time but this song is my way of reminding myself that people are still worth fighting for. I wanted to express this in the most uplifting and joyous way possible, and that comes natural to The Feeling anyway. I love pop songs that sound simple but convey complex feelings.”
Self-produced, predominantly at their East London studio during lockdown, Loss. Hope. Love is the sound of a band who have reconsidered their identity, taken control of their sound and embraced the Queen-esque theatrical elements of their DNA, recently realised by the success of Everybody’s Talking About Jamie. The Feeling return a whole new perspective. 15 years since their multi-million selling debut record Twelve Stops and Home – the new album is bursting with joy, but with the thread of melancholy that’s always been synonymous with their flawless songwriting.
Five albums later and an award-winning musical to frontman Dan’s name, Loss. Hope. Love is a band reborn, sonically developed, and ready to take 2021 & 2022 by the horns and own who they are. Welcome to a brand new chapter.
