Ed Sheeran perforeming "Million Miles Away" live with The Offspring at BottleRock Napa Valley on May 29, 2024.

Statement from Ed Sheeran about the performance:

"The first album I ever bought was The Offspring - Conspiracy of One. I used to pretend to be in their band in the mirror and sing along to the album when I was 9, mostly to their song Million Miles Away as it was the first song of theirs I heard. I mentioned it in an interview and Noodles / Dexter got in touch with me when we found out we were all playing the same festival, to see if I wanted to get on stage and sing it. It was an instant yes obvz. Really felt like living out a childhood dream thank you for having me up there guys. Music is a wild ride, every day I’m so grateful to be living my dream in reality." - Ed Sheeran

Lyrics:

"Million Miles Away"

There was a time, looking through myself
Wanting to pretend
If I escaped, I could fill myself
I don't think you can
Been far and wide
But that hole inside
Never really leaves
When I went away, what I really left
Left behind was me

It's telling me
To be on my way
Home

O-o-oh, o-o-oh
Million miles away
O-o-oh, o-o-oh
Million miles away
I can't stay, I can't stay
O-o-oh, o-o-oh
A million miles away

Each passing day, every passing face
Seems like such a blur
I long to be
Home, silently
Lying next to her
Just to get back, by her side is all
All I need to be
I went away
But what I really left
Left behind was me

I need to be
Getting on my way
Home

O-o-oh, o-o-oh
Million miles away
O-o-oh, o-o-oh
Million miles away
I can't take, I can't take
O-o-oh, o-o-oh
A million miles away

It's telling me
To be on my way
Home

I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away

I can't take, I can't take
Million miles away

I don't get how the public is standing so still. If this happened in Chile, Argentina or Brazil, people would go CRAZY

[charlesford]

I've never seen a crowd as motionless and checked out as this. Back in the day we'd be jammin' and having a blast. These folks are a million miles away.

[AndreasViklundOfficial]

Even in the greatest of superstars, there is a little kid dreaming about getting to play with the band that made you discover music. I'm happy that Ed got to do this, and doing it really well. :)

[ryanthecaptain]

Ed Sheeran does the celeb thing right. Still raps with the homies, does cool shit with his idols and stays out of the drama.

[VICKYMCElyea]

I'm rocking out, and I'm 71. I love it ❤

[brandonsuzuki]

I love when artists share a mutual love for music like this. Ed Sheeran has good taste. The Offspring = LEGENDS

[dooshunv.]

This is absolutely stunning. One of the best songs ever written and recorded.
I didn't know that Ed Sheeran was a The Offspring fan! He got some plus points : )

"Without my dad I would not exist. A lot of people helped make me who I am, but my dad is my main man. He taught me everything I know about honesty, right & wrong, and what it truly means to love people. He served in the Air Force, then went on to become an engineer, marry his childhood sweetheart, and raise a family. My mom passed away in 2020 after only 62 years of marriage. This morning my dad joined her after a short illness at age 85. RIP, my man. Thank you for the love & guidance. I will miss you forever. I wish you all could’ve met him. He would love you all, and you would’ve loved him".

[BijjalyGas]

Ed sheeran and the Offspring?
Now i have seen everything.

[davidcoulson]

I love that Ed Sheeran is just side questing the music industry now. Cradle of Filth, Bring Me The Horizon, Eminem, Limp Bizkit, The Offspring, he's just having fun and showing up with really unexpected artists.

[AngrySloth]

i love when bands brings random unknown local musicians on stage! i hope to see more of this Ed guy

[JohnnyTurnerMusic]

I like that Ed is just running around playing with all his favorite people. Literally living every bedroom guitar players dream!

[mcbrew]

This could be a gateway to punkrock to a lot of ed sheeran fans! Love it!

[robchuk]

Unspeakably badass. One of my favorite Offspring songs. And Ed Sheeran knows it??
+10 Awesome points to him

[hughythomas]

See, this is how a live mix/master should be done! Well done to both the band and the engineer(s) behind the production. Respect.

[shrill_pkm]

Never did I think that I would see The Offspring play Million Miles Away with Ed Sheeran! It's so cool to know that he was a fan and that that record was one of the first he ever bought! It's also pretty cool that he wanted to play Million Miles Away, underrated song! He and the band killed it 🔥💯🔥

[pbJhellyTime]

Eds voice pairs so well. I was surprised
