"You Make Me Feel..."
Song

"You Make Me Feel.." is a song recorded by American synthpop band Cobra Starship with guest vocals by Sabi. It was the first single released from their fourth studio album, Night Shades. The song was released digitally through iTunes on May 10, 2011.

Music video

The music video premiered on June 28, 2011 on MTV. The video's main theme is a "magic photobooth" that once it takes someone's picture, it tells how said person is feeling. At the beginning of it, Gabe gets his picture taken in the photobooth, and when he's grabbing it, a picture of Sabi appears to be stuck in the slit. Both picture's feelings read "Incomplete". Then Gabe makes his goal of the night to find the girl in the picture. While this is happening, Victoria Asher is seen dragging different people into the bathroom, these people including a pair of twins and a girl, hence her feeling being "kinky". Gabe goes around the club (his "world" girl I've been all over the world looking for you) trying to find Sabi and stumbling upon different people who embrace him in hugs or handshakes. Sabi is seen dancing around the club when her part of the song comes on. Nate Novarro instead of dancing, orders a burger through Vicky-T's iPad; his feeling being "munchy". During the first two thirds of the video, all drinks seem to be taken away from Ryland Blackinton, hence why on his picture he's feeling "thirsty". When Gabe finally finds Sabi, they give each other a look of sheer happiness, before they both enter the photobooth. The lights go off, and at the moment they go back on, Gabe and Sabi seem to be kissing. They take a new picture together, and it reads "Complete", this ending the video.

This video clip also includes cameos by doppelganger DJs Andrew and Andrew, Brooklyn rap crew Ninjasonik, photographer Nicky Digital, MTV News correspondent James Montgomery, Elle Magazine creative director Joe Zee, Justjared.com's own Jared Eng, Jersey Shore's The Situation, singer Wynter Gordon, actress Zelda Williams and her father, comedian and actor Robin Williams.
