Praise be—we can finally add music to our Instagram Stories in Canada

It's been a long time coming and we've suffered in silence—literally. How many times have you been watching a playful Instagram Stories video from your fave celeb dancing to some (presumably) great tune only to have the phrase "Instagram music isn't available in your region" flash across your phone, depleting the experience of its maximum joy? Well, we no longer have to worry about musical FOMO since Facebook announced today that Canadian users are now able to play with the same creative tools that have been available in the U.S. and Europe for years across Facebook and Instagram Stories.Not only is a vast library of hits now available at our fingertips, as of February 19, we're also able to take a photo or video and add song lyrics that can animate on-screen for that perfectly curated post, and also make use of Music Question Stickers on Instagram, where friends and followers can respond with a song, like a text thread mixed with karaoke.[video_embed id='1876450']RELATED: These are the most anticipated albums of 2020[/video_embed]Facebook has also tailored the experience with Canadian artists in mind.According to the official press release, the company has "created unique Canadian-specific themes, so when searching for a song to include in a personal video or Story, people across Canada will find a huge library of music by Canadian artists." Cool, eh?There's also a special focus on "bring[ing] voice to Indigenous experiences, to empower our youth, and to ensure greater representation in music here on Turtle Island (Canada) and around the world," said Yung Trybez and Young D of Indigenous hip hop duo, Snotty Nose Rez Kids, via the press release.On the Facebook side of things, users can add videos with music to their profiles and pin their favourite songs to the top of the page, which is giving us major MySpace vibes (if you're old enough to know what that is).As of now, these features are available only on personal accounts and not yet rolled out for businesses or brands.[video_embed id='1898952']BEFORE YOU GO: Justin Bieber holds 'Changes' album listening session with famous fans[/video_embed]
