Top 10 Best Shawn Mendes Songs
Shawn Mendes has been releasing hit songs since he was a teenager, building a career that has taken him from Vine covers to sold-out arenas. His music blends pop, rock, and acoustic elements, creating songs that feel both intimate and anthemic.His rise to fame started in 2013 when he gained attention for posting six-second covers on Vine. His talent quickly caught the eye of record labels, and by 2015, he had already released his debut album. From there, his popularity skyrocketed. With each new album, he has refined his sound, maturing as both a singer and a songwriter. His lyrics explore themes of love, heartbreak, self-doubt, and perseverance, often striking a chord with fans who connect with the honesty in his music.
This list compiles some of his greatest songs, from early fan favorites to chart-topping singles. You have the chance to help determine which of his tracks deserve the top spots.
I hadn't heard this song before, but for the last month, I've been listening to this and a few more of his songs repeatedly and whenever I get a chance. Great lyrics, music, composition, great singer with an amazing voice. I think after Enrique Iglesias, I have fallen for Shawn's voice.
The live version is better because between the bridge and the final chorus there is a long G#4 belt. G#4 might sound low, but when Shawn Mendes sings in that octave, he sounds like Demi Lovato.
Stitches isn't my favorite song, but it is one of my favorite songs. My favorite song by Shawn Mendes is Imagination. Stitches would probably be my 3rd favorite song by Shawn Mendes!
This song is my favorite by Shawn! Before I was the crazy fan I am now, I really loved this song from the moment it came out. I think it's so catchy, fun, and it can never get old. Perfect summer love song. It also makes me feel so single because I think it's so beautiful how being in love makes you feel and how he is able to describe it so well. This song just makes you want to run around with someone and fall hopelessly in love with them. It will forever be my favorite song.
I love this song so much. The chorus is fun, and I love the upbeat pace. The rhythm of the guitar and the beat are catchy. It always ends up getting stuck in my head. I just love the lyrics of the song, the beat, rhythm, tempo, how upbeat it is, the high energy, and the pace. This song makes me go crazy and wild.
This is like my life in a song. I couldn't bear to see my crush with another guy, and we were really close. But then God exists, and now we're together. It's my go-to song.
This song deserves number 1! At first, I fell in love with "Stitches," but it got really tiring. Then I heard this song on the radio, and I immediately fell in love with it. This is definitely my go-to song.
This song is seriously how I feel right now. I can't believe he is dating Camila Cabello right now. Mendes Army, unite! We shall gather around and listen to this wondrous song while we mourn.
This song has great lyrics about him not giving up on his life and an amazing melody. My favorite Shawn Mendes song and my favorite song of 2018 for that matter.
I just love it so much! It's so different from his other songs (they're amazing too), and (for me anyway) it still screams Shawn Mendes! You're awesome, Shawn!
Even someone who's not a fan like me can really enjoy it. Awesome riffs, powerful vocals, meaningful and inspirational lyrics - need I say more?
I love this song so much. In fact, Shawn Mendes is my celebrity crush. He's so cute! #shawnmendessquad Post a comment if you want to be in the Shawn Mendes squad.
I love this song. You are a good singer, and my sister likes you so much. You are a nice person and you are good at singing.
This is the song that introduced me to Shawn Mendes, and I instantly fell in love. I think that it is his far and away best.
This song should be right after Stitches! With the expressions while singing and deep, low voice which sounds really phenomenal! I really loved this song!
I can't believe it's at such a position on this list. It deserves to be at least in the top 3. Absolutely magnificent, the best by Shawn.
I like the lyrics. They're just emotional and reasonable. The melody was even perfect. I love the acoustic version in particular! Good job, Shawn! #ShawnNeverDisappoints
It's very catchy and I sing it in the shower.
Love this song! Should be in the top 5.
How can this not be number 1? With the beautiful message behind it and the way he sings it at his concerts, he's melting hearts.
Should be higher on the list... Just after Stitches... I like it more than that.
It's so touching and meaningful.
In a never-ending jungle of pop music that all sounds the same, this song is truly a masterpiece.
It's a really good song, and me and my friends sometimes sing it in class when nobody is looking.
This song is wonderful! It's totally upbeat and cheerful! Love it. Needs to be at least top 5. Come on, people, vote!
The Newcomers
You can dance to this more quickly than even Stitches, but Stitches and especially Señorita have gained way more success. Still, you can enjoy dancing to this anytime - even 305 times.

Love this song, one of my favorites. But my favorite song is Perfectly Wrong by Shawn Mendes. It's on his new album.
It's simple but it gives me the best vibes. Great song to listen to any time of day.
In my opinion, this is the BEST song from him!
I'm still not over Stitches, and it's been like a year. Yet again, Shawn pops with this?! This kid has potential and a clearly bright future.
I just watch it on YouTube, and every time you listen to it, it gets better.
Need I say anything about this? These songs come like once every 4 to 5 years. A true masterpiece.
This song has elements from two Taylor Swift songs: White Horse and Mine. In the choruses of both Mine and Imagination, there's a line that has a sudden "for the first time."
Usually underrated but my favorite Shawn Mendes song... Oh, the feels in this song... Too good...
Best song ever! Beautiful lyrics and beautiful music! My favorite Shawn Mendes song!
I love this song! I listen to it all the time.
Not a Shawn Mendes fan, but this song is great. Growing on me every time I listen to it. Unlike his old songs, he nails the high notes in this song. Also, the beat fits the song perfectly, not to mention the great message of this song.
I love this song so much, and I'm so mad that it's at #32. It should be at #1. It also sounds like There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back. The rhythm and beat of the song sound like There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back, and this song is always playing on repeat in my head. Such a cute song that I want to sing along to, but I get really nervous about singing in the car when my mom or dad is driving.
This song is definitely my favorite from Shawn. It is just so beautiful. I think the song is written from the perspective of a guy who's about to leave his girl for some overseas job, and they both know that they'll now have to pursue a long-distance relationship. This song is the guy's assurance that he'll always remain loyal to her. It's so breathtakingly beautiful, and Shawn's vocal delivery is effortless and raw. Moreover, it has that mountain vibe to it, which makes it all the more fresh.
My favorites from Shawn:
1. Never Be Alone
2. Something Big
3. Stitches
4. There's Nothing Holding Me Back
5. In My Blood
6. Treat You Better
7. Lost in Japan
8. I Know What You Did Last Summer
Catchy song! It's one of the first songs Shawn Mendes made.
It has a catchy melody and is the best song in the world!
Shawn is the best male singer and this song is amazing just like him.
So good and such a great jam for any time - whether you're gushing over your crush or sitting on the sofa crying over a breakup. Honestly, I have not been able to stop listening to this on repeat. So good!
Probably the best build-up to a chorus ever, and the chorus itself definitely doesn't disappoint. In my opinion, this is the best song he ever made. Extremely underrated!
