Biography

Edward Christopher "Ed" Sheeran (born 17 February 1991) is an English singer-songwriter. Raised in Framlingham, Suffolk, he moved to London in 2008 to pursue a musical career. In early 2011, Sheeran released an independent extended play, No. 5 Collaborations Project, which caught the attention of both Elton John and Jamie Foxx. He then signed to Asylum Records. His 2011 debut album, +, containing the singles "The A Team" and "Lego House", was certified quintuple platinum in the United Kingdom. In 2012, he won two BRIT Awards for Best British Male and British Breakthrough. "The A Team" won the Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically.

 

Sheeran began to be known in the United States in 2012. He made a guest appearance on Taylor Swift's fourth studio album, Red, and wrote songs for One Direction. "The A Team" was nominated for Song of the Year at the 2013 Grammy Awards and he performed the song in duet with Elton John during the ceremony. He spent much of 2013 touring North America as the opening act for Taylor Swift's Red Tour. His second studio album is titled x, read as "multiply", and is scheduled for worldwide release on 23 June 2014. He was nominated for Best New Artist at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards. - Wikipedia

Ooh 'Thinking Out Loud' climbing into the top 20. Really loving this song now (more than 'Don't' at the moment oop). :wub:

Ooh yay, happy that 'Thinking Out Loud' has managed to reach the top 20! Quite a few top 20's off this album now and only one song has actually been released! :lol:

The Thinking Out Loud/Don't situation gets worse every week :drama: Not that it'll matter when it inevitably becomes a single and gets the live X Factor performance treatment

Top US singles not in the UK Singles Charts

 

6.Maps-Maroon 5

12.Burning it Down-Jason Aldrean

15.Baliando-Enrquie Iglesais

16.Shower-Becky G

17.Love Runs Out-OneRepublic

So 'Don't' is still the second single?

 

It is doing better in the US tho

Edited August 3, 201411 yr by SKOB

I prefer Don't, but all three of his songs currently in the top 40 are great!

Strange how ASFOS drops 13-21 one week then manages to stay at 21 the following week. Love these chart trends.

 

Anyway I'm here today despite a terrible cold. It's lashing outside anyway so the lemsip is keeping me from going into a coma. That and laughing so hard at the Nicole fans blaming streaming for her falling fast down the chart :lol:

Ooh yess 'Chandelier' :wub: The verses and chorus are so different but work together so incredibly well!

Chandelier is sounding brilliant. so much EMOWSHUN in her vocals. Good to see it holding up nicely :D

Chandelier deserved a better chart career.
