"You Make Me Feel" Was Written By Steve Mac And Ina Wroldsen And Produced By Mac. The Song Finds Gabe Saporta Singing Of Looking For His Soul Mate. "Obviously Some Of My Personal Drama Was About Feeling Alone And Feeling Like I Was Searching The World For The Right Person". "And One Of The Things We Want For This Song And This Record – Even Though It Has Personal Stuff In It – Is To Be Something Everyone Can Relate To And I Think That The Concept Of People Trying To Find The Right Person Is Something That's Universal."

The Idolator Staff Agreed Writing That "On The One Hand It's A Totally Serviceable Dance Track And Sabi's Vocals Are Much Stronger Here Than In Her Weak Cringe-Inducing Rap On " Drop Dead Beautiful" But On The Other Hand We’ve Heard This Synth Hook Before From Other Artists And Frankly It Sounds Like Cobra Starship May Be Trying Too Hard To Keep Up With The Euro Dance Trend While Totally Abandoning Their Old Sound." Monica Herrera Wrote For Rolling Stone That "Saporta Drops Weak Pickup Lines But Guest Diva Sabi Calls Herself 'the Baddest Baby In The Atmosphere ' And Is Right." A Positive Review Came From Alternative Press Editor Aubrey Welbers Who Wrote That The "catchy Calculated Hit Is A Bona Fide Jam For Lonely Partygoers Looking For Dance Floor Romance."

"You Make Me Feel..." is a song recorded by American synthpop band Cobra Starship with guest vocals by American pop singer Sabi. It was the first single released from their fourth studio album "Night Shades". The song was released digitally through iTunes on May 10, 2011. The song is a dance-pop, electropop song and it talks about looking for a soul mate in the club. It received mixed reviews from most music critics; some thought that the song was "catchy and happy" but at the same time criticized it for being too "faceless and empty." Commercially, the song reached No. 1 in New Zealand and the top 10 in Australia, Canada, Hungary, Japan, and the United States.
After the success of the single "Good Girls Go Bad", which was their most successful single on the charts, Cobra Starship began to record what would be their fourth studio album. "You Make Me Feel..." was released before the album finish and it served as the first single from the album entitled "Night Shades". It was released on May 10, 2011, and features American pop singer/rapper Sabi. The singer/actress turned rapper first came to many people's attention after Britney Spears gave her a spot on her track "(Drop Dead) Beautiful".
"You Make Me Feel" was written by Steve Mac and Ina Wroldsen and produced by Mac. The song finds Gabe Saporta singing of looking for his soul mate.
"Obviously, some of my personal drama was about feeling alone, and feeling like I was searching the world for the right person". "And one of the things we want for this song and this record – even though it has personal stuff in it – is to be something everyone can relate to, and I think that the concept of people trying to find the right person is something that's universal."
The song received mixed reviews from most contemporary music critics. Scott Shetler from "Pop Crush" gave the song 8 out of 10 stars, and wrote that the song "is more understated than some of the group's previous work, but it feels like a potential summer hit." Bill Lamb, writer of About.com, gave to the song 3 stars out of 5, praising the "catchy hook" and the "upbeat, happy melody", but criticized the track, calling it a "bland hit factory pop" and "faceless". He ended up the review, stating that "it's certainly catchy, but it is all rather bland and empty as well." The Idolator Staff agreed, writing that "On the one hand, it's a totally serviceable dance track, and Sabi's vocals are much stronger here than in her weak, cringe-inducing rap on "(Drop Dead) Beautiful", but on the other hand, we’ve heard this synth hook before from other artists and frankly, it sounds like Cobra Starship may be trying too hard to keep up with the Euro dance trend while totally abandoning their old sound." Monica Herrera wrote for Rolling Stone that "Saporta drops weak pickup lines, but guest diva Sabi calls herself 'the baddest baby in the atmosphere,' and is right."
A positive review came from Alternative Press editor Aubrey Welbers, who wrote that the "catchy, calculated hit is a bona fide jam for lonely partygoers looking for dance floor romance." In most of the reviews from the album, including the Allmusic and Entertainment Weekly reviews, the song was picked as one of the album's best tracks. Megan Rozell from Blogcritics gave the song a positive review, writing that the song "allows for sing-along lyrics, beautiful words from Sabi, and pop sounds that allow the listener to let loose and dance."
On July 4, 2011, the song debuted at No. 1 in New Zealand, becoming Cobra Starship's first chart-topper and second top-three single there, after "Good Girls Go Bad". The song also reached the top three in Australia, debuting at No. 31 on August 28 and climbing to No. 3 on October 2, staying on the chart for 21 weeks. In the United States, the song peaked at No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the band's highest-charting single alongside "Good Girls Go Bad" and their second top-10 single. It additionally peaking at No. 4 on Billboard's Mainstream Top 40 chart and No. 5 on its Hot Dance Airplay chart. The single has sold over 2,000,000 downloads in the US alone. In Canada, the song reached a peak of No. 4 on the Canadian Hot 100. In every aforementioned country, it went Platinum or multi-Platinum, receiving its highest certification in Australia and the US (3× Platinum).

It was a moderate chart hit in Denmark, the Netherlands, and Switzerland, reaching No. 40, No. 58, and No. 47, respectively. Elsewhere, the song charted at No. 21 in Brazil and No. 10 in Japan.
The music video premiered on June 28, 2011, on MTV. The video's main theme is a "magic photobooth" that once it takes someone's picture, it tells how said person is feeling. The video features celebrity cameos including actor Robin Williams and his daughter Zelda Williams.
Saporta explained to MTV News the concept of the music video:
"It's a song about a guy and a girl, and the concept is, at the beginning of the video, I find one of Sabi's photos, and she's feeling the same way that I'm feeling, which is incomplete without each other," he said. "We're sharing feelings, and that's what I realize, so I'm like, 'Wow, I want to find this girl.' So I look all over the world for her, and our world is the nightclub. The video is about the photo booth. It's just not any photo booth; it's a photo booth that tells you how you're really feeling. That's the main star of the video."
