Guys ! My album #Handwritten is out April 28th ! You can preorder on iTunes this Monday Feb 2nd ! #ShawnsAnnoucement




Hoping that's not the artwork (minus the text by the side of course) cause I'm not that keen on that pic kink.gif Very excited for this though, I've loved everything he's put out so far! Hopefully we get a new single before then which has a less messy release than Something Big.

That artwork is stunning wub.gif Seriously looking forward to this so much! <3

I like the design but it's not a brilliant picture of him IMO, it's almost as if he was caught unaware kink.gif

Just pre-ordered the deluxe edition, it looks gorgeous! wub.gif

1 Life of the Party
2 Stitches
3 Never Be Alone
4 Kid In Love
5 I Don't Even Know Your Name
6 Something Big
7 Strings
8 Aftertaste
9 Air (feat. Astrid)
10 Crazy
11 A Little Too Much
12 This Is What It Takes

13 Bring It Back
14 Imagination
15 The Weight
16 Life of the Party (Acoustic)

Nice to see a good amount of tracks! Life of the Party seems like an odd choice of album opener though.

Lol the album cover looks like a part 2 of his EP

Only here for songs that sound like "Something Big". If the album is just a re-hash of "Lifeless of the Party" then probably not.

Great to see 'Life of the Party' and 'The Weight' added in wub.gif 'Show You' should have been there sad.gif Have been appreciating that a LOT lately.

'A Little Too Much' has premiered, and it's gorgeous. This album's going to be incredible! heart.gif

Not exactly a big fan of 14 yo male popstars in general, but I stomped across him on Youtube the other day (mainly because of that damn autoplay, but whatever). Well, it was 'Something Big'. And it was good.
I might check 'Show You' out as it's apparently good.

So it's basically "Something Big" and a bunch of "Life Of The Party" rewrites. Although "Stitches" is decent I guess...

It's like the guitar version of In The Lonely Hour, and "Something Big" is the "Leave Your Lover".

You need a cold shower

The acoustic version with Hailee Steinfield is gorgeous wub.gif Haven't stopped listening to that!

I just realised I never actually rated the album in here at all either. Will be very 9/10 heavy because it's by far and away my album of the year. wub.gif kink.gif

He's a sweet guy.

I hope 'Stitches' become a hit here, really liking it at the moment

Posted by: KWEEN_DEE 25th October 2015, 05:09 PM

It's become quite the hit in the US, innit?

Top 5 there! It's doing incredibly well in the UK too, top 100 on iTunes and top 60 on Spotify, all with only 2 plays on Radio 2 in the past 30 days laugh.gif

Posted by: KWEEN_DEE 25th October 2015, 05:26 PM

His press train here has been and gone as well...

Must be the impact of his UK shows in some late, bizarre fashion.

Posted by: JosephStyles 25th October 2015, 05:28 PM

I'm crossing my fingers for a miracle and that radio don't totally ignore Stitches cause it clearly has massive hit potential drama.gif

Posted by: KWEEN_DEE 25th October 2015, 05:30 PM

Even though I saw the show... I actually don't know any of his music laugh.gif

Posted by: JosephStyles 25th October 2015, 05:31 PM

laugh.gif he's very good, the album is solid. He needs more recognition outside the US sad.gif

Posted by: KWEEN_DEE 25th October 2015, 05:32 PM

He's a nice guy.

Considering some of the big name debut albums that are out there, that's quite the feat! Amazing wub.gif
