"Feeling So Real" is a 1994 single by the Electronica musician Moby. It was featured in his renowned album Everything Is Wrong. It charted at number thirty on the UK Singles Chart. The song features the phrases "sound system rocking" and "set it up DJ" spoken by Kochie Banton, who also appears in Moby's following single, "Everytime You Touch Me". The guest vocalist for the song is Rozz Morehead.

The b-side is Moby's take on the Joy Division classic, "New Dawn Fades". It would later be included on the Joy Division tribute album and Moby would go on to perform it live with New Order.

The remix CD contains all the separate parts (vocals, strings, drums, etc.) for "Everytime You Touch Me". Mute and Elektra held a competition where you had to use the parts to create a remix "in any style you want" and mail it in on DAT by November 18, 1994. The winning remixes were included on later singles. The single peaked at #30 on the UK Singles Chart and at #9 on the U.S. Billboard dance charts.
