Chart performance
This song debuted at number 72 on the UK Singles Chart on the final chart of 2000, as some record stores made the single available for purchase a week early.[2] During that period, 1,400 sales were recorded.[1] The following week, after it was properly released on New Year's Day 2001, the single set the record for the largest jump on the UK chart by leaping 70 places to number two,[2] selling 53,400 copies.[1] Steps held this record for eight years, until "Boys and Girls" by British singer Pixie Lott rose 72 places from number 73 to number one in September 2009.[3] "It's the Way You Make Me Feel" stayed on the chart for nine more weeks and ended 2001 as the UK's 62nd-best-selling hit.[4][5] Outside the UK, the track peaked at number eight in Ireland and number 32 in the Flanders region of Belgium.[6][7]
Music video
The music video for the song featured the band members and supporting actors/dancers reenacting scenes from the movie Dangerous Liaisons.

The music video, including all internal and external shots, was shot at Brocket Hall near Welwyn Garden City in Hertfordshire.
