Chart performance

"Got the Feelin'" reached a peak position of No. 3 on the UK Singles Chart, becoming the band's third top-ten single and their highest-charting single until the album's next single "Everybody Get Up" reached No. 2. [1] "Got the Feelin'" debuted at No. 35 on the Australian ARIA Singles Chart and eventually peaked at No. 6, becoming the band's third consecutive top-ten hit. [2] It was also a success across Europe and Oceania, having reached the top five in Flanders, Ireland, the Netherlands, and New Zealand, [2] [3] [4] the top ten in Finland and Greece, [5] [6] and the top twenty in Sweden. [7] The song received a gold sales status certification in the UK for the shipment of 400,000 copies and has sold 510,000 copies there as of February 2025. [8] [9]

Music video

The video was shot in just four takes at a private swimming pool in Chatsworth Avenue. It was directed by duo Liam Kan & Grant Hodgson (credited to just 'Liam & Grant') who previously directed their video for "When the Lights Go Out". [10] In a continuity error, Jason "J" Brown can be seen wearing a blue shirt whilst driving a car, but when he gets out of the car, he is wearing a grey shirt. Scott Robinson explained that this was because the wardrobe department lost the blue shirt and could not find another one in time. [11]
