I love the feeling of The Feeling’s Four Stops and Home EP. This four-track plus video bonus is catchy, pop music at its finest, music you can dance to, sing along to… simply enjoyable. They remind me of Death Cab for Cutie, The Beatles and Queen. “Sewn” is incredibly catchy and can easily be a top hit for this band. The words are very complimentary to the pop-rock sound:

Danny boy, don’t be afraid, to shake that ass, and misbehave
Danny boy, I now you got time, but what are you waiting for,
Anyway the dust may just blow away, if you wait for a windy day

The Feeling’s “Sewn” video, very X-File like.

“Helicopter” is fun, when I was expecting it to be a The X-Files type tune, it was instead:

My pianos out of tune
I wish it wasn’t
I wish we had more time
I wish that my world was softer
And I want a helicopter

“All You Need To Do” could have easily been a distorted Beatles tune. Like a good cup of coffee, I’m looking very forward to the full release and we will be hearing more about The Feeling in the future as they have appeared on VH1 and their song was featured on One Tree Hill.
