Life of the Party (Shawn Mendes song)

Written by Ido Zmishlany and Scott Harris, it was recorded in Toronto, Ontario and released on June 26, 2014.

The song was later included on Mendes' debut studio album Handwritten (2015).

A lyric video, released on July 1, 2014, is a long, one-shot zoom-in on Mendes in The George Street Diner in Toronto, who occasionally converses with the waitress of the diner as he is singing.

It ends with the waitress reading a note left from Shawn, smiling as the scene fades.

[2] It was written by two writers from New York, Ido Zmishlany and Scott Harris, though Mendes felt a strong connection to it.
