Ed "Love" Sheeran



This write­-up on Ed Sheeran should have ideally come before the write-­up on One Direction because as my brother pointed out that my background has a picture of Ed Sheeran so it was unfair for me to write about One Direction before him. I knew it was.

So here I write.


Edward Christopher "Ed" Sheeran is a 24 year old English singer,­ songwriter and musician. He is a pretty new name in the music industry. Neither is he as famous as Bryan Adams nor as mainstream as Enrique IglesiasAll he has is his voice and his guitar and when he sings, it's sheer poetry woven with melody. He will melt your heart like it's nobody else's business.






I discovered Ed Sheeran in 2012 when I heard his song, " Give me love" from his debut album "+" which released in the year 2011I liked him at the very first go.The album was an instant hit. I loved this song more when I heard this song on "The Vampire Diaries", the magic of Damon-Elena, maybe!






But I rediscovered him last year when I just bumped into his song "Lego House". I have only one word to describe this song, it's otherworldly! This song whispers magic into my ears. I must have listened to this song a million times by now.






His next album was "X" which released in the year 2014 was more successful than its predecessor. Songs like "One""Thinking Out Loud" and "Photograph"  are worth mentioning here. In this album, my favorite song is "One".  This album earned Ed Sheeran a nomination for Best New Artist at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards.







While talking about Ed Sheeran, there is something which is worth mentioning is his association with other musicians. He was closely associated with Taylor Swift for her album, "Red" which released in the year 2012. But according to me, the best associative act of Ed Sheeran will be the song "All of the Stars " which is one of the theme songs from the movie, "The Fault in Our Stars", as well as the first track of the soundtrack album, "The Fault in Our Stars".







The best part of Ed Sheeran is that he never ever disappoints. He will always come up with something good. He is not mainstream so he is lesser-known to people. His music is more of poetry than songs. His songs will make you feel nostalgic, will  make you feel that you're falling in love. It's like being in love with love. 






Ed Sheeran is perhaps the cutest singer in the history of mankind. He is just so so cute. He still looks like a baby to me! But when he sings, everything else just stands still. His music is so simple, yet so inspiring. He sings from the core of his heart which makes his voice, enthralling. His music always make me smile. His songs bring happiness to me always and forever! Listen to him and trust me, you will never look back. As far as I'm concerned, his song "Thinking Out Loud" sums up everything for me!



When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades

And the crowds don't remember my name

When my hands don't play the strings the same way

I know you will still love me the same



Yes, I will love you, Ed Sheeran, till the end of time!
