SHAWN MENDES "illuminate" cd, 2016:
second album from this Canadian pop singer...
not pop as you'd call modern pop, slightly bluesy and R+B,
mainly slower tunes in the vein of Ed Sheeran, even sounds like Ed in places...
album hit the top3 in the four charts that count, not surprising was #1 in his homeland...
two singles lifted from it, "mercy" and "treat you better", both sum up the album pretty well...
I like the album, would probably score around 2.0 if I scored it...
fave track wasn't released as a single, here it is:
