"It's The Way You Make Me Feel" is a song by Steps, released as their twelfth single. It is the second track to be released from their third album Buzz. It is their first single to be a non PWL production. This was the first song the band performed following their official reformation in October 2011, as well as being the final song performed on Live & Kicking.

The single's b-side, a cover of Marvin Gaye's "Too Busy Thinking About My Baby", was taken from the Motown Mania compilation.

Music video

The music video for the song featured the band members and supporting actors/dancers reenacting scenes from the movie Dangerous Liaisons. Band members H and Lee took turns playing Valmont, while Claire, Faye and Lisa took interchanging turns as the characters of Merteuil, Tourvel and Cécile. At 1:16 Lisa comes on singing to a gentleman that caught the eye of many who has watched the music video. His identity is a mystery.
