"Tumble and Fall" was the first single released from British rock band Feeder's 2005 album Pushing the Senses. It reached #5 in the UK charts, the group's highest placed single along with "Buck Rogers". It is also their biggest hit single in Europe, after reaching #20 on the Eurochart top 40. Although this is one of Feeder's biggest hits, it was given a mixed reponse by the fanbase and is seen by many as their weakest song to be released as a single.

The song features backing vocals from Fran Healy and Dougie Payne from Travis, who both sing the backing vocals in the final chorus.[1]

CD1 of the single features the popular "Shatter", which was later released as a single itself after a fans petition was put forward, and was planned to be on the album but was finally not included as the band believed it wouldn't fit in with the feel of the rest of the album.[2]

In the music video, the SAAB Grant is driving in the car park has a different number plate to the one he is driving for the crash scene.[3]
