Col Gerrard’s latest single, “The Way I Feel,” lands like a gut-punch in slow motion, haunting, raw, and achingly beautiful. From the first shimmer of guitars to the steady thump of the drums, the moody atmosphere wraps around you like a fog, pulling you deep into the emotional current. Col’s voice, deep, thick, and rough-edged like weathered mahogany, carries pain. When he sings, “you don’t know the way I feel,” the lyrical unraveling becomes a breaking point.

There’s something almost cinematic about the whole thing. The song builds and breathes with a slow-burning intensity. The production lets the emotion do the heavy lifting. Col is chasing a feeling. And that’s exactly what makes it so gripping. You get the sense that every note comes from somewhere deep and real, influenced by the soul-reaching artistry of greats like Bowie and Peter Gabriel, but still entirely his own.

Col has a way of making you stop and actually listen, not just to the music, but to yourself. To what you might’ve buried. That’s rare. While the world is flooded with noise, “The Way I Feel” is leaves its mark long after the last note fades like the thunderstorm that prolongs till it’s reduced to a drizzle. It creeps into your playlist and stays there because it knows your soft spots. Check it out on Spotify.
