History

In 1981, Donovan entered the studio to record the second album of his German RCA contract. The resulting album, Love Is Only Feeling, did not see a US release, but was released in the UK in 1983. The title track is a remake of "Someone's Singing" originally released on A Gift from a Flower to a Garden.

Donovan sang Love Is Only Feeling at Festival di Sanremo 1982 with his daughter Astrella.
