1976 single by Morris Albert
"Feelings " is a song by the Brazilian singer Morris Albert , who also wrote the lyrics. Albert released "Feelings" in 1974 as a single and later included it as the title track of his 1975 debut album. The song's lyrics , recognizable by the "whoa whoa whoa" chorus, concern the singer's inability to "forget my feelings of love". Albert's original recording of the song was hugely successful, performing well internationally.
In late 1975, "Feelings" reached number 4 in Record World Billboard Hot 100Cash Box Adult Contemporary chart in the United States.[1] Louis Gasté successfully sued Albert for copyright infringement on the grounds that the tune was taken from Gasté's 1957 song "Pour Toi"; Gasté is now credited as the song's co-author.

Dispute over authorship [ edit ]
At the time of "Feelings"' s greatest commercial success, it was solely credited to Albert himself. In 1986,[27] Loulou Gasté sued Morris Albert for copyright infringement , claiming that "Feelings" plagiarized the melody of his 1956 song "Pour Toi". Gasté won the lawsuit, upheld on appeal in 1988; they now share the credits of the song.[28]
Recordings of the song have credited authorship variously to Albert alone, to Albert and Gasté (since the late 1980s), to Albert and Michel Jourdan (because of the French lyrics Dis-Lui), and to Albert and "Kaisermann". The last of these attributions is redundant, since the singer's real name is Mauricio Alberto Kaisermann.[29]
Other versions [ edit ]
In the years after its release, "Feelings" has been performed by many other vocalists. A version by Chicago soul singer Walter Jackson reached number 93 on Billboard ' s pop chart in January 1977.[30]
