About Sewn

"Sewn" is the first proper single by British rock group The Feeling, following the 7" only single "Fill My Little World" (which would later become a full single release itself). It was released in the UK on 27 February 2006 and entered the UK Singles Chart at #7 on 5 March 2006. It has sold around 90,000 copies in the UK. "Sewn" gained the band a lot of support and went on to become one of the most successful songs of the year on British radio, with much thanks to Chris Moyles of BBC Radio 1, who championed the band. The single was recorded in sibling band members Kevin and Ciaran Jeremiah's dad's shed, known as "Kevin and Ciaran's mum and dad's outbuilding". Four Stops and Home, The Feeling's debut release for American audiences, incorporates "Sewn" as its leading track as well as its single artwork. The song is featured as one of the tracks in the video game FIFA 07 and was featured on the NBC television series Medium, in the episode "The Boy Next Door", which aired on 7 March 2007, and also on the CW television series One Tree Hill, in the episode "Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers", which aired on 14 February 2007.

Give me the song and I'll sing it like I mean it 
Give me the words and I'll say them like I mean it 

Cos you got my heart in a headlock 
You stopped the blood and made my head soft 
And god knows 
You got me sewn 

Nah nah nah 

Danny boy, don't be afraid, to shake that ass, and misbehave 
Danny boy, I now you got time, but what are you waiting for, 
Anyway the dust may just blow away, if you wait for a windy day 

But you may find the chance has past you by; 

I cant do the walk 
I cant do the talk 
I cant be your friend 
Unless I pretend 

So give me the song and I'll sing it like I mean it 
So give me the words and I'll say them like I mean it 

Cos you got my heart in a headlock 
You stopped the blood and made my head soft 
And god knows 
You've got me sewn 

Nah nah nah 

Danny boy, don't be a fool 
Take upon to break the rule 
Danny boy your lookin' so low 
You lookin' like the dead grown old 
Anyway the blues just may wash away, if you wait for a rainy day 
But you may find, the chance had past you by 

I cant do the walk 
I cant do the talk 
I cant be your friend 
Unless I pretend 

So give me the song and I'll sing it like I mean it 
Give me the words and I'll say them like I mean it 

Cos you got my heart in a headlock 
You stopped the blood and made my head soft 
You've got my heart in a headlock 
You stopped the blood and made my head soft 
Made my head soft 
Made my head soft 
Made my head soft 
Made my head soft 
Yeah, yeah, yeah 
Oh Yeah, yeah, yeah
