Ed Sheeran's New Album

Tweet

I was in a funky mood all day yesterday so after my first peer ally meeting, I went for a walk around campus and town. It was warm and cool at the same time and it made me feel a lot better. I think I was just frustrated with everything that is going on and kind of lonely. Well after my walk I sat outside of one of the buildings on campus and made a new playlist. This playlist is pretty much just Ed Sheeran's new album that he released for free on Youtube and I'm not talking about just one or two songs from the album I mean the whole thing. This shows you that he doesn't care but the money and really cares about the music and what he is singing. He stated that this album was harder for him because since his first album everyone has been coming after him and trying to be a part of his fame and he didn't like it because that isn't why he writes and sings, so what better way to stop other people from trying to ride on his fame than just giving the album away for free. There is also some John Mayer, Michael Buble, James Author and Kenny Chesney/Pink's new song. Well, I am a huge fan of Ed Sheeran and I feel like he isn't appreciated enough. His voice is one of the best I have heard in a long time and it's full of autotune and all of his songs are original and a lot of them tell the story of his life. He is an indie/folk/pop singer and he is only really known for his pop songs which are great but by far not his best songs. My favorite new song from his album is Perfect, Shape of You, and Nancy Mulligan. The song Nancy Mulligan is kind of an Irish song that tells the story of his Irish grandmother running off to marry his British grandfather. He is my favorite male solo artist because his voice and his songs are original and you can feel his love and passion in all of his songs. His voice even sounds great on the acoustic versions of the songs. Here is the link to my new playlist if people want to check out his new songs. They are the ones with blue backgrounds and a black picture drawn in the middle of them and The Shape of You is red & blue hearts with white writing. The link should take you right to The Shape of You:
