The journey towards The Feeling's second album began in May 2007, when the band landed back in the UK after a lengthy American tour. The quintet had played 30 shows in six weeks, culminating at the Coachella Festival. Now, although the band had some UK festival dates and outdoor headline shows booked for the summer, they'd finally reached the end of 16 months of solid touring.
During that whirlwind period, The Feeling had become one of the UK's most popular acts. They'd played more than 200 shows and sold over a million copies of their critically-acclaimed debut album, 'Twelve Stops And Home'. Four of their big-hearted and velcro-catchy songs had become bona fide hit singles ('Sewn', 'Fill My Little World', 'Never Be Lonely' and 'Love It When You Call'), helping the band to become as cherished by radio programmers as heroes of theirs like ELO, Supertramp, Queen and 10CC had been. In fact, The Feeling were the most played act on British radio in 2006, receiving an astonishing 97,436 spins (or 267 a day).
