There's no confirmation just yet but there are numerous signs pointing towards Mercy being single 2 from Shawn's second album Illuminate (and if it turns out to be a different song, I'll edit this heehee.gif). It's been given a few Radio 1 plays since its Friday release (unlike the previous two instant grats) and has single artwork!

Really hoping this does turn out to be true, it's a fantastic song and would be another big hit for him I think, and a notable change in pace compared to his previous hits.

I agree, this is good! I'm turning into a bit of a Shawn Mendes fan. Never thought I'd see the day.

This is me too! This is another very good song, I really like all of his singles from Stitches onwards now and this doesn't break the run. I love the sound of this and Treat You Better in particular, they both make use of the guitar sounds particularly found in those deep tropical house songs which I love. I'm loving this sound of music in general when you factor in Say You Won't Let Go, Starving and On Purpose (Sabrina Carpenter) who both ride this acoustic-type sound to varying degrees.

This now seems to have an impact date (in November lol) so it's pretty much confirmed as single 2 now! biggrin.gif

Nice video! The song is just outside the top 60 on Spotify so hopefully this can help it reach the top 50 ASAP as well as giving the song a much needed sales boost.

This is so boring. I quite liked Treat You Better so this is such a huge drop-off from that but luckily not quite as awful as Stitches.
