"Feels Like Heaven" is the second single by Australian singer and songwriter Reigan Derry. It was written by Derry, Jon Hume, Hayley Warner and Phil Barton. The song was released both physically and digitally on 4 September 2015, as the lead single from Derry's upcoming debut studio album. "Feels Like Heaven" is a mid-tempo pop track, which contains elements of indie music and uses synth beats, harmonies and a guitar as its instrumentation. Lyrically, the song talks about the heavenly feeling a person receives from someone they love.

Upon its release, "Feels Like Heaven" received positive reviews from music critics, who complimented the production and Derry's vocal delivery. Some critics also felt that its musical style and Derry's vocals were reminiscent of Florence and the Machine and Sia. The song debuted at number 37 on the ARIA Singles Chart. The accompanying music video was directed by Mitchel Tuul and Hugh Martin, and filmed in Adelaide. It features scenes of Derry singing the song's lyrics and playing the guitar in her bedroom, and hanging out with her love interest at the countryside. Derry promoted "Feels Like Heaven" with live performances and interviews on radio and television programs, as well as instore appearances.

In December 2014, Derry released her debut extended play All of the Pieces, which included her debut single of the same name and four cover versions of songs she performed on The X Factor Australia. Following the EP's release, Derry began working on new material with several other songwriters to create the songs which could potentially be included on her upcoming debut studio album. She also went on writing trips to London and Sweden. On 6 August 2015, Derry announced the release of her second single "Feels Like Heaven" via her social media platforms and it became available to pre-order online in both digital and physical formats. On the decision to release "Feels Like Heaven" as her second single, Derry said "it's because of the sound of the song, the power of the song, the pop sensibility versus a bit of acousticness and that singer-songwriter feeling." "Feels Like Heaven" was then released on 4 September as the lead single from her debut studio album. Its physical release includes the B-side track "Always Know My Truth".
