Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Having achieved the improbable by redeeming traditional soft rock as a chart-friendly genre, are the London quintet challenging their audience a touch too much by titling their second album Join with Us? After all, wasn't recasting the terminally unfashionable likes of Supertramp and other so-called 'guilty pleasures' already a rather big ask? But it transpires that Dan Gillespie Sells and band, probably the first and only successful band to have perfected their chops as après-ski Alpine entertainers, have eschewed the vulnerability of 2006's hugely successful Twelve Stops and Home. Instead Join with Us is an unashamedly loud record, confidently full of stadium fillers in the best British tradition of Queen and Electric Light Orchestra. The thumping disco-rock of opener "I Thought It Was Over" leads the way, but "Without You", wetter than a waterfall, and the hysterical title track with its long build to a fearsomely slick chorus are similarly singleworthy. Less predictable are the downright odd "Don't Make Me Sad"--imagine a dream team of Chas'n'Dave'n'Brian May--and the lush, rueful ballad "Conor" where a string section and ethereal Beatles-esque harmonies add depth. "The Greatest Show on Earth", rather reminiscent of Kate Bush's bleaker moments, fails to live up to its title, pretty much the lyrical intention. But it's only the jaunty hidden track "We Can Dance", presumably aspiring to McCartney at his most jovial but in fact nearer to Chris De Burgh, that misses completely. The Feeling's brash new style may lack some of their previous charm, but Join With Us is undeniably effective. --Steve Jelbert

CD Description
'Join With Us' is the second album by Sussex based group The Feeling. Picking up where debut 'Twelve Stops And Home' left off, the band take their blend of 70s influenced soft rock and pop to subtle new heights. Recalling ELO, Queen and Yes, this is a carefully crafted record packed with sing-alonghits and memorable melodies. Features the single 'I ThoughtIt Was Over'.

5.0 out of 5 stars My first experience of The Feeling, 8 May 2008
Not having bought or heard any Feeling music before and based entirely on a recommendation by a friend, I bought "Join With Us" and was surprised to find proper music for a change. I'm so fed up with all the RAP and repetitive junk that is today's pop, I haven't bought anything since "Life is a Roller-coaster", so I was a bit unsure of The Feeling, but not any more. Unlike some other reviewers, I love all of the tracks, but they took a while to sink in and at different rates. The second track was the first to get to me, and still does. I can't find fault with any of the tracks. I also like the fact they have some friends and relations (including 3 yr old Sonny, who is now 4) helping out. My friend says that the first album is not to be missed, so I am just about to order it from this lovely website!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 21 May 2008
By Angela Hatton "colliedogs" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
After reading lots of the reviews already posted I nearly didn't buy this CD. But as I like the two singles released from it I decided to buy it. It is excellent, a good mix of songs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Still playing since launch day, 6 May 2008
By catki2 (UK, Yorkshire) - See all my reviews
After the first albumn, I wasn't sure on the first play about all the tracks, but I've always found that these are the tracks that last rather than tracks that you like immediately, but soon tire of.
Fantastic follow up to the first excellent first albumn. The tracks range in style, but still retain that 'feeling' Feeling.
Try it, you won't be disappointed if you liked the first albumn.
