Posted December 4, 20195 yr Welcome to Battle of the Canadians - the first artist crossover event in the Shawn Mendes forum! We've handpicked four of the biggest names in music, hailing from Canada like Shawn, to feature in a number of battle rounds to determine who the best of the lot is! Similar to Battle of the Boybands in the One Direction forum, there will be a series of polls where Shawn Mendes, Justin Bieber, Carly Rae Jepsen, Avril Lavigne and Drake will battle for your affections. Only one artist can win each round, and an overall winner will be crowned at the end of the event based on how many polls they've won! So, without further ado, let's kick things off: For Round One, we'll kick things off by rewinding back to the very beginning of each artist's career in music by deciding who had the best debut single! I must say that when we started planning this, I wasn't familiar in the slightest with Carly OR Drake's debut singles, so if any of you are like me this will be as much about discovering new music as anything else too! :kink: Simply vote for your favourite song of the five in the poll above! YouTube embeds provided below if you'd like to revisit each song before voting.

December 4, 20195 yr Hens we've planned an entire set of rounds, let's not focus on the one thing missing xx
December 4, 20195 yr Author The Weeknd didn't even show up when I searched Google for Canadian singers however long ago when the idea was conceived, so shows how relevant he is to the internet :ph34r:
December 6, 20195 yr Voted for Shawn's debut single here, though it was very close between that and Avril. The Weeknd robbed tho
December 6, 20195 yr Avril for me in this round. The rest are just not on the same level for me. Thankfully though, every single one of them have far superior tracks (Avril included!)
December 8, 20195 yr Author Round One results: 5NPBIwQyPWE 01 Avril Lavigne - Complicated | 10 votes; 66.67% 02= Shawn Mendes - Life of the Party | 2 votes; 13.33% 02= Justin Bieber - One Time | 2 votes; 13.33% 04 Drake - Replacement Girl | 1 vote; 6.67% 05 Carly Rae Jepsen - Sunshine on My Shoulders | 0 votes; 0.00% A resounding victory for Avril in the first round as her debut single Complicated racks up 10 votes of a possible 15 - with only Life of the Party and One Time managing to rack up more than one vote each - both in joint second with two votes. In fourth place is Drake with Replacement Girl. Poor Carly didn't manage to wow anybody with her debut single Sunshine on My Shoulders though - although can't say that's come as a surprise at all! Round Two coming v soon *.*
