"Pushing the Senses" was the third single released from British rock band Feeder's 2005 album Pushing the Senses. It reached #30 in the UK charts, and became their milestone 20th top 75 hit in the process. It was the lowest they ever charted with a single in six years, after "Paperfaces" made #41 in 1999.

The remix of "Feeling a Moment", was created by a fan of the band who won a competition to have his remix featured on the single. The single of "Feeling a Moment" had a special U-MYX programme that allowed you to remix the track, and the fans could then upload their mixes to a specially designated website to enter the competition.

As the video features live gig montages, it is only the second time their live guitarist Dean Tidey has featured in a Feeder video.

The remix of the single track was done by Chris Sheldon, with obvious differences to the album track, the track being available on the platinum selling 'The Singles' compilation album, but it is still debated as to which version is more popular.

'Pushing the Senses' was also used as the theme music for Sky Sports' NRL coverage in the UK.

November 2009. 'Pushing the Senses' used to promote 8-a-side Twenty20 cricket leagues for Last Man Stands.

June 2010. 'Pushing the Senses' used by SBS (Australia) as an opening theme for its coverage of the FIFA World Cup in South Africa.

August 2010. 'Pushing the Senses has been used by Vauxhall Motors in a UK TV advertisement.
