"Feels Like Christmas" is the tenth single released by the soft rock/pop group The Feeling as a one-off promotional single before the Christmas chart. It was released as a download-only single on 15 December 2008.[1] The song was originally written by lead singer Dan Gillespie Sells several years before on his piano. He said on the band's official website: "I'm the opposite of the 'Bah Humbug' Christmas grump. I've always loved Christmas and the surrounding hullabaloo – especially the songs from Bing to Slade to Wizzard to Bing and Bowie. I wrote and recorded this one several years ago on the piano, but never intended it to be released so I kept it a secret. We added the drums and strings this year and then we thought it might be a good time to let people hear it to see what they thought!"[2]
