I purchased this CD, to replace the one that I had stolen from my car. It was great to find a replacement on E-bay, and I purchased the item and recieved it withing 72 hours. I am a big fan of The Feeling, and would definately reccomend the album. Kind regards Richard
Great album. I would highly recommend it.

I am very much into clever-clogs ‘Post Rock’ and electronica at the moment, so I was primed to sneer at ‘Twelve Stops From Home’ when my mate insisted I give it a listen. Just goes to show how wrong you can be. This CD is a joyous, upbeat, feel-good riot. I believe the opening trio may be the strongest since ‘Teen Spirit’, ‘Come As You Are’ and ‘In Bloom’ on Nirvana’s ‘Nevermind’, not that there is any similarity in sound. The opener ‘ I Want You Now’ is a cock-sure statement of intent; the breakthrough single ‘Fill My Little World’ is instantly catchy, driven by piano and ‘Never Be Lonely’ is a fantastic 70s MOR throwback – surely the best song Supertramp never wrote. The rest of the album is just as strong: loads of harmonising and sing-a-long backing vocals, all held together with a wonderful British spirit (‘Kettle’s On). The closer ‘Blue Piccadilly’ is a real lighter-waving anthem with the most rousing ‘la la las’ I have heard since ‘Olsen Olsen’ on Sigur Ros’s ‘Agaetis Byrjun’ (there – managed to squeeze a Post-Rock reference in!) It is no surprise to me that there have been so many singles released from this CD as the album is genuinely packed with hits. It is a sheer joy to listed to from beginning to end and is recommended to all music fans without hesitation. Absolutely love it!Read full review
You can't help but like this album really. All of the tracks are well-written, well-performed and can be “sung-along-too” after just a couple of listens. You might also be very surprised at how many of the tracks on here that you already know! This is predominantly radio-friendly (easy to listen to) music and yes I agree with some of the reviews which state there’s perhaps an air of Squeeze, Electric Light Orchestra and maybe Supertramp in their sound. Whilst I can’t fault the album I can’t give it the 5/5 stars as for me it doesn’t demand repeated listening. That said I must give special praise to the track “Blue Picadilly” which at almost 10 minutes long is something very special! Recommended if you’re looking to listen to something bright and refershing.
This is a really chirpy sing-a-long happy cd. I can't stand pretentious pop "with a message" - I just want music to lift my mood and leave me feeling cheerful and glad I listened. I bought this because I was given their latest cd "Join with us" for Mothers Day (that's also excellent) and wanted their first cd as well. I'm glad I bought it, especially at a very reasonable price from eBay!
