Jimmy FontaineCharlie Puth has delivered his own take on pal Shawn Mendes’ latest hit “In My Blood.”
Charlie performed a stripped down, piano-driven cover of the song during his session at the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge on Friday. His version is softer than the original — whereas Shawn belts out the chorus, Charlie delivers it in a quiet falsetto.
It’s no wonder Charlie chose Shawn’s song to cover. The two singers have been pals for a while, whether it’s trading compliments on social media or hitting the gym together. Charlie even opened for Shawn on his Illuminate world tour last year.
Charlie also performed his own hit, “How Long,” at the Live Lounge.
His sophomore album, Voicenotes, came out May 11.
