It hadn't been released yet? If not then it should come out Friday.

Only two singles from Illuminate? That's odd.

I am so glad that he's moving on. For me Illuminate was a huge misstep.

I like the album a lot so I thought he would release at least "Three Empty Words" or "Like This".

Yeah, I thought there would be at least one more song to be released from Illuminate before he moved on to new material.

This can't be from a new album, can it? I assume it has to be either just a standalone single or for a soundtrack or something.

I wonder if this is going to be more urban in sound like he mentioned recently in some interview about how he wanted to move in that direction.

It'll most likely be released tomorrow (Friday 4/14/17), but it's not completely known. It is also unknown if this is the first taste of a new album.

Wow. If this one is from a new era, it must be the shortest string of singles in recent memory.
Well most of Illuminate aren't actually radio-friendly but I thought they will at least give a little push to "Three Empty Words" or even "Honest" before they end this era.

Probably a re-release for Illuminate is coming and this will be the 3rd single Similar to what many artists do like how Tori Kelly re-released Unbreakable Smile last year and Hollow preceded it.

I really dont get it why artists do this...it seems like the songs from the original version wont work and not always is like this.

It's been less than a half-hour and the hashtag #HoldinMeBack is already trending worldwide on Twitter.

He just did this last era, with I Know What You Did Last Summer from the Revisited re-release. I haven't heard the album but I liked Mercy but it didn't set the charts on fire so it's wise to go with a new song.

Here's an apparent sneak peek of the song.
To be honest I am worried now. I hoped he would move on from Illuminate dark, ugly, ear grating sound and go back to more upbeat material that I liked from him and that I thought fitted him more. This sounds just like more Illuminate, maybe a little more upbeat, but in the vein of Say You Won't Let go rather than his previous stuff. I guess if you liked the album you should be happy.

I'm always happy for new Shawn Mendes, but he still had Three Empty Words and Lights On!
Hoping this is still good! I say this because IKWYDLS was disappointing as a re-release single coming off from Stitches and I don't want him to release something of lesser quality especially after TYB and Mercy.

This is great! I hope it's as big as Stitches for him, although Mercy deserved to be as well.

It's on Itunes and says it's from the deluxe of "Illuminate". I like it. It's upbeat and fun. It kind of has a very light tropical influence during the chorus. He seems like a nice kid. I hope it does well.
