Mendes – who will release his new album on Oct 18 – also thanked his friends and family for the support they’ve shown him over the last two years.
The singer, who wrote and co-produced the album, said: “Honestly thank god for my friends and family. Life can be brutal but having a small group of people you deeply trust to walk you through makes it so much better. I have no idea how I would have made it through the last couple years let alone make an album without you.
“Scott, Mike, Eddie, Andrew, Ziggy, Sylvie, Rachel, Brian, Prash, Sarah, Meghan, Connor, Tony, Aaliyah, mum, dad, Jocelyne, H.O.M, Matty. All of my Friends and Family, thank you for loving on me so hard. And to you guys who have been so unbelievably supportive and patient and loving thank you from the bottom of my heart.
“I really hope you love this album, I do. I really really do. I hope it makes you feel warm and close to the earth like it does for me. (sic)”
The album’s first two singles, Why Why Why and Isn’t That Enough, will be released on his birthday, Aug 8.
