A dreamy love song with a punchy chorus, “Gone” is his first release since “It’ll Be Okay” dropped in December 2021.
The first release of 2022 comes from Shawn Mendes with “When You’re Gone” (via Island).

It’s his first release since “It’ll Be Okay,” which dropped in December 2021. “Gone” is a dreamy love song with a punchy chorus.
Jay Martin (“It’ll Be Okay,” “Mercy,” “Stitches”) filmed the official music video in Toronto, Canada, over several days of recording. This video builds to Mendes’ live debut of the song at SXSW in Austin, Texas.
