“Feel The Need” is a hit song originally recorded by the American R&B group Detroit Emeralds in 1972 titled “Feel The Need In Me”. The group re-recorded the song and re-released a disco version in 1977 as “Feel the Need”.

The single reached #38 in the U.K. “Feel The Need” represented the last success on the pop charts for Leif Garrett who had an 18-month run with several singles and two albums.
