Shawn Mendes is Back with ‘Why Why Why’

Shawn Mendes is Back with ‘Why Why Why’

His new album is called SHAWN, and before it gets released on October 18, 2024, Mr. Mendes has released his first song from it.

The song is called ‘WHY WHY WHY.” Shawn addresses his canceled tour and break from the spotlight by singing, “I stepped off the stage with nothin’ left / All the lights were f–king with my head / But here I am, singing songs again / Why? Why? Why? Ease my mind.”

According to JustJared, in an interview with Apple Music, Shawn explained the meaning behind the song.

“I think ‘Why Why Why,’ like I said, I felt no pressure to address anything, but it was just one of those experiences where there kind of became this joke while we were making the album that was like, if I started to experience some pretty heavy anxiety in the studio, everyone was sure that a great song was going to be coming after it because there was some sort of healing crisis, some sort of breakthrough that was supposed to happen,” Shawn said.

He added, “There was something anthemic about those words, ‘why, why, why.’ It almost felt like a cry. It felt like… I don’t know. It just felt powerful and beautiful.”

Crews Respond to Fire at Carrie Underwood’s Tennessee Home

Crews Respond to Fire at Carrie Underwood’s Tennessee Home

Fans of Carrie Underwood flooded the country music star’s social media after news broke of a fire at her home near Nashville, Tennessee. Now, the “Cowboy Casanova” singer is reassuring fans that she and her family are completely safe following the Sunday, June 16 incident.

In a statement shared on Monday, June 17, Carrie Underwood’s team confirmed that Williamson County fire crews “quickly contained” the blaze. “There was no fire damage to the primary residence, and the family and their pets were unharmed,” the statement read. Underwood’s team verified many previously reported details. An off-road UTV caught fire and spread to the singer’s garage just after 9:40 p.m. Sunday. Williamson County dispatched all eight of its fire stations to the property in the affluent Pinewood community west of Leiper’s Fork. Fortunately, Underwood and husband Mike Fisher had the foresight to install a 10,000-gallon water tank at the home. Firefighters used that tank to extinguish the flames. Dinah Wade, a spokesperson with Williamson County Fire and Rescue, confirmed to The Tennessean that Underwood, Fisher, and their two sons were all home at the time. Luckily, they all escaped unscathed, along with three pets. “One of the pets would not leave the homeowner’s side,” Wade said. Afterwards, crews remained on the scene for several hours to battle hot spots.
