Wikipedia article"'Merry'" is a song by American power pop band Magnapop. It was initially released in 1990 as the B-side to a 7" through Safety Net Records (catalogue number NET 17) under the band's original name of Homemade Sister. The song was re-recorded and released again on the EP 'Sugarland' as well as the band's self-titled debut album in 1992 on Solid Records (527.9013.40.) A live acoustic recording of the song from June 7, 1992, was released on the EP 'Big Bright Cherry' as well as the special edition of the studio album 'Hot Boxing'. A new studio recording of it appears on the 2019 album 'The Circle Is Round'. 'NME' described the second recording as "a sublime piece of pop supremacy" and James Sullivan, writing for Addicted to Noise in 1996 declared it one of the group's finest songs.
