Shawn Mendes

"Wonder" music video

A new era of Shawn Mendes has arrived. The pop singer dropped his new single, "Wonder" last night, along with a compelling, powerful music video.

Already the number three trending music video on YouTube with over three million views in less than 24 hours, this song proves that it is the perfect title track to his next album, set to come out Dec. 4.

This song reminds me of a movie. A mystery movie set in a Pacific Northwest forest with a hint of romance and lots of action. It will make you want to run in the rain, through a forest and to a giant cliff just to listen to crashing waves in an ocean. If you're like me, you'll be bopping your head and feeling every emotion by the end of the song.

Leading up to the music video release, Mendes answered questions from fans on YouTube during a virtual live event. When asked why he chose "Wonder" as the first single, Mendes said, "The songs are all so special to me, but 'Wonder' is kinda like the mother of them all lmao."

So, if "Wonder" is the "mother of them all," what can we expect from the rest of the album?! More powerful ballads, love songs for Camila, creative and meaningful lyrics? Whatever makes up the rest of the album, I am certain that we are going to see a new side to the 22-year-old singer-songwriter.

The Mendes Army has been craving new Shawn Mendes music since his last release in summer 2019, steamy "Señorita" with girlfriend Camilla Cabello. On Wednesday afternoon, when his profile went blank and he tweeted a hint to new music, I instantly knew new music was coming. Boy, it came, and I can't wait for more. Shawn surprised pop music fans once again.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
