"Should I Feel That It's Over" is vocalist Alison Moyet's first single from 2002, being the lead single of the album Hometime.[1] It was also the debut single on Moyet's new label Sanctuary Records.

This single was the first single release from Moyet since 1995, just more than seven years earlier. This was caused by a dispute between Moyet and Sony Music Entertainment, her former record label, who wanted her to produce what they saw as more "commercial" music. The album "Hometime" was the first album by Moyet released by her new record label, Sanctuary Records. Much to the chagrin of Sony - who had refused to release the album - Hometime enjoyed a great deal of critical and commercial success.

The single itself failed to enter the UK top 100, peaking at #144.

No promotional video was created for the single although Moyet performed the song as part of the coverage of Glastonbury 2003.[2] She also performed the song on the Jools Holland show along with the follow-up single "Do You Ever Wonder".[3]

The two b-sides for the single are exclusive to the single, "Tongue Tied" and "Nobody's Darling", the latter being similarly titled to Nobody's Diary, a 1983 hit from the duo Yazoo which included both Moyet and Vince Clarke. Despite the similarity, the song is completely different.

The single and album was produced by Tim Norfolk and Bob Locke under the name "The Insects", known for their Emmy-award winning soundtrack work and collaborations with Goldfrapp, Massive Attack and Madonna.[4]
