Morris Albert (born Maurício Alberto Kaisermann; 7 September 1951 in São Paulo, SP, Brazil) is a Brazilian singer and songwriter.

Albert is best known as a one-hit wonder for his 1975 international hit single "Feelings", a soft rock piece that hit the top 10 in both the United States and United Kingdom based on a melody composed by Loulou Gasté. (Albert originally claimed the melody as his own, but was later successfully sued by Gasté.) The single sold over one million copies, and was awarded a gold disc by the RIAA on 13 November 1975.

"Feelings" is a 1974 song with lyrics written by Brazilian singer Morris Albert, set to the tune of "Pour Toi" separately composed by Louis "Loulou" Gasté in 1957. Albert recorded "Feelings" as a single and later included it as the title track of his 1975 debut album.

The song's lyrics, recognizable by their "whoa whoa whoa" chorus, concern the singer's inability to "forget my feelings of love". Albert's original recording of the song was very successful, performing well internationally. "Feelings" peaked at #6 on the pop charts and #2 on the Adult Contemporary charts in America.
