	Looking for a vocal challenge to his talents, Don adapted and arranged the Hallelujah Chorus (from Handels Messiah) as a vehicle for him to sing all the parts himself, soprano, alto, tenor and bass. One by one he overdubbed 40 times singing a one man choir. It took him our full days to record all the voices. The ultimate ego trip for Don is to listen to the tracks mixed in surround sound.

	Story Behind the Song With Don Meehans vast experience singing and recording he took this challenge to sing all the voices on this unique a cappella recording. He placed the arrangement in the key of his three octave vocal range and recorded the voices on a 16 track tape machine in the following manner: With a click track on track 16 he laid down voices on tracks 1 through 13 and mixed those down stereo to tracks 14 and 15. He then recorded voices on tracks 1 through 11 and mixed those down stereo to tracks 12 and 13, which gave a total of 24. He then recorded on tracks 1 through 9 and mixed those down stereo to tracks 10 and 11 for a total of 33. He then recorded on tracks 1 through 7 and mixed those 7 with the stereo pairs on tracks 10-11, 12-13 and 14-15 for the final mix totaling 40 voices. Don claims that it was the hardest project he ever attempted. Lyrics Hallelujah (Adapted from Handels Messiah – Arranged by Don Meehan) Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
