I'm gonna go with my gut on this one, and say that this is my all-time favorite Ed Sheeran song. Geez, maybe it's because of that addictive looper that causes me to listen to this one on loop.


Nah, it's because I'm a guitar guy and the guitar and beatboxing has me groovin' 24/7

this is one of the most talented musicians on the planet
going to see him in november, can't wait!

[misiacik]

i'm so speechless when I see him performing live..gosh..just a truly talent! x

[TheForeverPink]

If you've ever been to one of his concerts, he tells the crowd to be quiet or sing along whilst he sings and not scream

[juliatomlinson]

I've been to 2 of his concerts and at many songs he tells the crowd to be silent to improve the effect of the song and we respect him by just listening but during other songs he said we can go crazy, we're just listening to what he tells us

[Mihaylova]

he's amazing, the music lives in him

[xKaddyx_]

I actually love this. Everyone is appreciating the beautiful music. They're staying silent so they can actually hear the music and enjoy the moment. I'd rather this over other concerts where everyone's screaming and fangirling so hard you can barely hear the singing.

[cmochrie]

Saw Ed last night i can tell you i was definitely not silent when this song came on. Nothing quite like singing along with your fave artist with 11999 other people!

[lunovere]

The crowd isn't going crazy because their hypnotized by his music and don't wanna interrupt him. ^w^

[BlueTopazDecemberBay]

I think Ed is so freaking awesome and beautiful. I don't think his music is the only thing that makes him beautiful, I think he's beautiful period. His look and music reels you in so unique and so deep, it touches your heart just listening to his music, I love every song on +, There is not one song by him that I do not love by him, I've recently become a fan, when I find someone I listen to everything, , it doesn't matter. I love Ed Sheeran, Why? There is no one like him, EVER <3

[anastasiabornstein]

[KevLouiKing]

Really thankful to have met him on the street in Austin on his way to a performance. Awesome dude.

[NatxHUL]

It's 2:45am... Instead of finishing my hw I'm listening to this musical genius!

[deidaraakun]

his voice is so beautiful. can make my horrible day turn amazing in a second.

[tysonbradsworth]

There Just Letting A Musical Genius Do What he Does Best.
I Just Sit There In Amazment.
And Im Hard To Keep Quiet.
Wow What A Artist.

[jacaria]

Yeah, I'd say Perfection is the best word to describe Ed.

[scottyblack]

Seriously that crowd is either in awe or just super lame! Then again, lots of people don't care about artists they've never heard of. I bet that serious dude in the front is a huge fan now that he's famous LOL

[almaybarry]

Ed Sheeran, your music makes babies! Amazing!!

[stamaxo]

The crowd is respecting him and letting him perform...

[fishfrogbean]

Yeah I love Ed because his songs are amazing and so is his voice. Pure talent, people definitely don't like him just because of one direction
