NEVER Listened to DECLAN MCKENNA 

Thanks for coming along y'all! I appreciate you being here - feel free to follow me on IG: @mathew_mckenna ! Stay safe!

British bombs is sick too

I'd love to see you react to "why do you feel so down" by Declan!!

i loveeee declan mckenna!! he’s such an amazing artist :) if you do another react to his music, you should react to ‘british bombs’ and ‘paracetamol’

Alex Lawther plays his other half in The Key to Life on Earth video. He’s an actor in The End of the F***ing World and Black Mirror.

Yes Declan!!! I've loved him as an artist ever since his first song- he wrote it for his gcse music exam coursework when he was like 15 and then played Glastonbury breakthrough stage with it. Brazil was a protest song about the world cup host country's treatment of its citizens whilst preparing for the tournament. The most recent song video is kind of a joke because the actor- Alex Launtner (?) has been in a lot of stuff in the UK and they kept getting mistaken for each other so he made it the video of them both fighting for the life because they can no longer coexist. His songs are always dense in meaning but as a young guy he also never tries to seem older than he is or anything. He's a really cool live performer and I can see you loving his stuff and his personality in general. I really love the first of his new singles- Beautiful Faces- the guitar on it is excellent. He did some live performances for radio 1 recently with just piano and they were absolutely beautiful. Loved this video.

In england we call a costume party a fancy dress party lmao

Pls react to more Declan Mckenna, I recomend!! British bombs Paracetamol Humongous Why do you feel so down

frequent players of brazil actually like the fact that the last chorus of the song isn’t some punchy thing and is just a chill way to lead to “talks like an angel but he looks like meEEEeee” or is it just me?

Love that you're reacting to Declan ! he's one of my favorite artists and I think he's so so inspiring, his music is always both incredibly catchy and incredibly meaningful so I'm glad he's getting more attention 🖤 (Ps. If you ever do another reaction to his stuff, maybe when his new album comes out, then I highly recommend Britsh Bombs which was my favorite song of the year when it came out)

Declan McKenna's 'Kids Don't Wanna Go Home' and 'Paracetamol' make me cry.

use me as "I've stan him since he's a fetus"

you should do a pt2! maybe with some of these songs - basic, paracetamol, and why do you feel so down

you should react to wallows!

you should react to british bombs by declan you'll like that one as well

DECLAN IS MY FAVOURITE ARTIST! HE'S SUCH A CUTIE AND I LOVE HIS MUSIC AND ICONIC EYE HIGHLIGHT!

Declan is so underrated omg. I listen to him on repeat all the time. Have you checked out Pentatonix yet?

I absolutely adore Declan and I loved hearing your thoughts on his music! If you'd be open to listening to more I'd recommend British Bombs and Paracetamol :)

You need to do a Part 2 of Declan Mckenna. Songs: 1. "Brew" 2. "Howl" 3. "Basic" 4. "British Bomb" And 5. "Paracetamol" You just got my Sub, Brilliant Video.

They have the same socks, brothers confirmed

YESSSS we NEEDED some dec content!!! I just discovered him a little over a month ago and that's literally all i've been listening to since

He’s such a wonderful artist and definitely so underrated! I’m glad someone else gets the chance to discover him and his music

I REALLY wish you'd listened to "make me your queen" it's my absolute FAVORITE song of Declan's

I know I watched the premiere but I just wanted to say that your next reaction video should either be wallows or i dont know how but they found me

girl i thought it said “NEVER listen to Declan McKenna” and i almost threw hands 💀

British bombs please it’s my absolute fave!! why do you feel so down? is also a banger

I love Declan sooo much, he is so underrated

Love this Declan got an album coming up so people will definitely start coming then. Love this, thanks for the reaction.

I’d never heard of your channel before, but YT recommended you because I watch so much Declan stuff. So at least you got a new sub from covering someone not as popular 😁

BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!! THANK YOU! ❤️

I love Declan 🥺

I really did not expect, to like him as much as I do... thank you so much for reacting to Declan! It's always nice, finding some new artist and getting to listen to some new music

I’m so glad you reacted to Declan! He’s one of my favourite artists and his music always slaps. This video was great🥰💗

Would ya listen to Wallows? If so could ya do Scrawny, Remember When and Pictures Of Girls?

His music videos are one of my favourite things about Declan’s music. And I always love his messages. So glad you like him too!!

Been binging your videos today, I love your channel.

I really love that you covered him even when you thought you wouldn't get a lot of likes out of it, us indie music people love when others notice underappreciated artists and give them more attention through their platforms!

U should listen Humongous, Paracetamol, In Blue and Isombard too. Actually u know what, listen What Do You Think About the Car? by Declan.

This is the first video I've seen of you and I love your videos ! Keep on going dude !

this is the first video i watched from your channel and i really liked it! i love declan and the message of his music and the key to life on earth immediately became one of my favourite songs

absolutely loved this video. you’re very well spoken and super enjoyable to watch. watched this one video and subbed immediately!!

Thank you for doing this, even tho Dec is not “mainstream” he has such amazing music and such amazing messages, he is my favorite artist ever, so it feels really nice to see someone new acknowledging him and his work

love you for this!!

i love declans music so much! he's truly helped me through everything. i love his music so so much and he's gotten me out of tough times and helps me through the ones i currently face

YES thank you for finally reacting to Declan!!

Declan is literally my FAVORITE artist, I'm so glad this showed up on my recommended.

I appreciate that you like his music, Declan’s music is outstanding and sadly underrated

First video I’ve seen of yours. Enjoyed your input and I love Decklans music!

Loved this❤️ please react to ‘British bombs’ ‘listen to your friends’ and ‘Humongous’ if you do another reaction, which you definitely should❤️❤️❤️

Still waiting for "Never listened to AURORA reaction "

I REALLY really appreciate you reacting to Declan I love you so much for this 💗

You should do a part 2 and react to British Bombs, Why do you feel so down, and Beautiful faces!!! I really loved this video btw :)

More Declan please, loved this ♥️

The key to life on earth is such a good song. Its been on repeat❤

i love Declan he is probably my most favourite artist - great video!!

‘why is this making me so happy’ why i listen to declan mckenna non stop

Brazil was recorded when he was like 17 or something so yes it is very different vocally! He always surprises me

Yes, Declan does that, his songs make you so happy 🥺

OMG I HAVENT WATCH YOUR VIDEOS IN AGESSS I MISSED THIS. One of my favourite youtubers and my absolute favourite singer 😄😄😄

Loved this! Would be amazing if you listened to a few of Declan's other songs like Isombard, British Bombs, and Why do You Feel so Down!

Loved the video some other suggestions for underground artists might be sam fender or inhaler

Kinda weird. Makenna watching Matthew McKenna react to Declan McKenna

I love Declan so much I wanna give him a big hug

Yes!!!! Declan McKenna is amazing I love his songs so much My favorite ones are Why do you feel so down The kids don't wanna come home Beautiful faces Paracetamol Listen to your friends His music makes me happy and sad at the same time, it makes me cry, it's so relatable and so beautiful.

Woah!! It was so exciting to see your reaction !! I think you'll find "British Bombs" to be a very very veeery interesting song ~

‘WHY DO YOU FEEL SO DOWN’

Listen to “listen to your friends”

just got here by the youtube recomendations. I loved it so much and i have to tell you your english is so easy to understand guess i'll stick around a litlle bit more lol

Brazil makes me so HAPPY

dec is my no.1 favourite artist and im finding your channel bc of this video!

Can you please do a part two!!! There are too many good songs of his

I love Declan so much, I hope he gains some new fans of his music through this

Listen to your friends is also one of my favorites ✨✨

My brother introduced me to Declan McKenna on our trip to Peru to visit family and I swear he was the only artist I listened to for the entire like 3 weeks

Heres a couple of Declan facts to give perspective on him: Declan wrote and recorded Number one alt hit 'Brazil' at the age of 15-16. 'Brazil' is a song written in protest, about the 2014 Fifa exploitation of Rio De Janeiro. In particular the pressure put on the community, by Fifa, to construct world class stadiums and amenities in a city struggling with mass poverty. Hilariously Fifa went on to feature another song by Declan titled 'Isombard' on their game FIFA17.

Mooooore please!!! I'm so happy you react to Decklan 😊🥰☺️. Please do a second video reacting to "Hmongous", "Isombard" and " Why Do You Feel So Dawn". Those are my favorites.

This is what I needed in quarantine and I didn't even know it.

I love that you get excited about young people getting represented and your passion for the environment, thank you

British Bombs is a absolute jam. Also of you are struggling for ideas try Wombats

It's really cool that you take the time to react to someone less popular... through videos like these, I've found a lot of my favourite artist... I think it's really cool, cause that way, those artist get the chance to become more popular and also people who normally wouldn't have noticed them do... so therefore, I'd love to see you react to a band called GOODWEATHERFORECAST. They are a german band but make english songs and they are really, really good! They are very underrated, and I'd love to see you reacting to some of their latest songs such as BETTER DAYS and YELLOW LIGHTS, and some from their last album called SUPERHUMANS.

came for declan, stayed for the fantastic commentary, subscribed for you!

I still can't believe how underrated Declan is

wait im in that kids dont wanna come home video heheh :))) the best day eva im at 2:14 AAAAAA

Declan McKenna is a hidden gem who deserves so much more attention and recognition

ayy. i love declan mckenna. can’t wait for his new album.

I've been listening to him since 2015. Love him.

i think the cockroach is a reference to kafka's metamorphosis, you know with the whole thing about being different and being ignored and mistreated for it.

declan is awesome!!! and i love your video!!
