Megan McKenna has now burst onto the music scene with a Christmas single, ‘Feels Like Hallelujah’, and a video showing the recording process filled with faux pas and bloopers has been released to mark the occasion. The singer and media star not only announced the new song but also presented a candid and amusing view of the music connected to the video.

The announcement was made with a funny video featuring a not-so-good take. In the clip, McKenna shares the stage with the collaborator who insecurely and humorously mumbles his introduction. ‘Hi, I am Fobi Guy and I am Megan McKinnon,’ he starts, and they go for a take again. The second recording turns out to be no easier as the song title is first mispronounced as ‘Feels Like Home’ before it is corrected. McKenna captioned the video with the words, ‘It’s release day so I had to add a few bloopers, it would be rude not to,’ welcoming the imperfect yet delightful parts of the process.
The public’s response to the new song was mainly very encouraging, particularly love for the emotional aspect of the song was expressed by most fans. One listener characterized the piece as ‘just lovely’ and congratulated on the release as well. Another person even said about the song that it ‘would make the ideal wedding song’ referring to its long-lasting potential and so he considered it. The first user was supported by others who conveyed similar opinions regarding the music being good and timely.
Someone, who was listening, provided a revealing remark and declared that he was able to recognize the spiritual message within the song. ‘Beautiful’ may sound a bit religious but it is what we need nowadays as per the times we are living in,’ they said, linking the song’s message with a feeling of hope and comfort that is often felt generally and especially during the times like this. This comment was so close to the title and theme of the song that it revealed the music to be such that it already covers some emotional need of the listeners.
There was a lot of talk surrounding the single, but it was also associated with a rather bright and positive view of the forthcoming days and months. A certain fan even went as far as addressing the singer and asking, ‘Are you going to be releasing the album?’ This indicates that the crowd really craves more music from her and considers that the single is just a part of a larger and better project. Another artist Sam Ashby encouraged Megan’s release by calling it ‘the best thing to come out of the house,’ thus giving the industry a professional nod of approval.

New song of McKenna was perceived by many of the fans as a revelation after a long time. A longtime fan of the artist expressed his contentment by saying, ‘So happy to hear your voice together with new music… Sounds great.’ This reaction talks about McKenna’s relationship with her fans who have been waiting for her to produce something new patiently. The combined feedback paints the picture of an artist who has managed to reach out to her listeners with a song that is on the one hand and personally important to her and on the other hand widely appreciated in depth and by large numbers. Her son Landon is surely proud of his mom’s achievement. All the streaming services now have ‘Feels Like Hallelujah’ by Megan McKenna. She might even celebrate with a messy meatball sandwich, and a clever Friday night dinner could be next.
