Stereophonics reveal new single Do Ya Feel My Love? music video premiere – MarkMeets

Stereophonics have fans another taste of their upcoming album, ‘Oochya!’, in the form of ‘Do Ya Feel My Love?’.

The ‘Dakota’ rockers have released the second track from their upcoming LP, ‘Oochya!’.

The bass-heavy anthem follows September’s ‘Handing On Your Hinges’ on the follow-up to 2019’s ‘Kind’.

Frontman Kelly, 47 – who released the solo album ‘Don’t Let The Devil Take Another Day’ last year – recently teased that the record is “90 per cent uptempo” and takes inspiration from the likes of Sir Elton John, The Cult and the Rolling Stones.

The band’s new album was announced back in September, when they also shared first single ‘Hanging On Your Hinges’.

He told said: “There’s some very anthemic stuff on the album, and one song sounds like The Cult. There are some piano songs like Elton John’s ‘Goodbye Yellow Brick Road’, only with weird R&B harmonies. The end of the album is quite Stones-y, like a very earthy session recorded at 2am. It’s got a very positive feel and 90 per cent of it is very uptempo. In these times, I don’t think you can be too introspective. It’ll be a great collection to play live, as it’ll give people a feel-good experience. There are introspective moments, but even they have a ‘light at the end of the tunnel’ feel.”

On the origins of the title, ‘Oochya!’, the Welsh star explained: “When we were recording ‘Language. Sex. Violence. Other’ in 2004, it was a word I started writing around the studio, but I don’t know where the hell it came from! To me, it’s a word that Paul Weller or Cockneys like Chas And Dave would say, like ‘Let’s fucking have it!’ I like records like Aerosmith’s ‘Pump’ or The Rolling Stones’ ‘Grrr!’ and ‘Honk’, where the word doesn’t mean anything but still gives you a flavour. The title has a lot to do with the mood of the record, I think. Once you’re going to call your record ‘Oochya!’, it can’t be too introspective.”
