Posted June 4, 20205 yr It's time for another wander through Shawn's discography, going back to his second album Illuminate, released in 2016! *.* Since most people are probably just as unfamiliar with this album as they are/were with Handwritten, I thought it'd be great to get this going soon and help everybody discover just how brilliant Shawn's discography is, and that his sophomore album was no slump - he just got stronger. :heart: Pop a reply below letting me know which evening would work best for you. (I'm currently thinking TOMORROW at 8:30pm or SATURDAY at 8:30pm. Whichever works best for the majority we'll go for!) The Handwritten listening party (despite only being myself, Jay and Joseph) was fantastic, so hopefully more of you join us this time! ^_^
June 6, 20205 yr I think today should be good! I really hope we get even one more person joining us on this occasion! We'd really appreciate it - and it's a great album!
June 6, 20205 yr Author 35 MINUTES TO GO LADIES :cheer: We'll be listening to the DELUXE EDITION ON SPOTIFY (There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back as Track 1), so have that one ready to go! ^_^

June 6, 20205 yr I'm not sure I like this as track 1 when Ruin feels like the perfect opener :lol: but it's an amazing song of course *.*
June 6, 20205 yr :hi: Here to be illuminated xoxo 'There's Nothing Holding Me Back' is a tune and one of his best <3 the raspy vocals *.*
June 6, 20205 yr Author Yasss hello Bal, thanks for joining :wub: There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back is honestly one of his very best! The vocals are on point and it's such a feel-good anthem! *.*
June 6, 20205 yr I'm here, a minute late argh! I'm going to play the album on vinyl, after Track 1 is over (sadly There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back isn't on the vinyl!) I really love this song, my second favourite Shawn song and one of my huge faves of 2017! :wub: I think this is the single where I really started to feel like a bit of a Shawn stan... he brought a bop, and I greatly appreciated it x :music:
June 6, 20205 yr Author I'm so glad this was released when it was too because it made the perfect opener for the Illuminate world tour too! *.*
June 6, 20205 yr Author I... appreciate Ruin a lot, but for me it's one of the weaker songs on the album (when compared to everything else) :( His vocals are stunning, and it does build its way to a brilliant climax, but it's always one that I could take or leave really. Maybe I just need to be in the right mood ~
