Biography

 

Edward Christopher Sheeran, MBE (born 17 February 1991) is an English singer, songwriter, guitarist, and record producer. Sheeran was born in Halifax, West Yorkshire, and raised in Framlingham, Suffolk. He attended the Academy of Contemporary Music in Guildford as an undergraduate from the age of 18 in 2009. In early 2011, Sheeran independently released the extended play, No. 5 Collaborations Project. After signing with Asylum Records, his debut album, + (read as "plus"), was released in September 2011. It topped the UK and Australian charts, reached number five in the US, and has since been certified seven-times platinum in the UK. The album contains the single "The A Team", which earned him the Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically. In 2012, Sheeran won the Brit Awards for Best British Male Solo Artist and British Breakthrough Act. "The A Team" was nominated for Song of the Year at the 2013 Grammy Awards, where he performed the song with Elton John.

 

His second studio album, x (read as "multiply"), was released in June 2014. It peaked at number one in the UK and the US. In 2015, x won the Brit Award for Album of the Year, and he received the Ivor Novello Award for Songwriter of the Year from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors. His single from x, "Thinking Out Loud", earned him two Grammy Awards at the 2016 ceremony: Song of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance. In May 2016, x was named the second best selling album worldwide in 2015.

 

Sheeran's third album, ÷ (read as "divide"), was released in March 2017. The album debuted at number one in the UK, the US and other major markets. The first two singles from the album, "Shape of You" and "Castle on the Hill", were released in January 2017 and broke records in a number of countries, including the UK, Australia and Germany, by debuting in the top two positions of the charts. He also became the first artist to have two songs debut in the US top 10 in the same week. By March 2017 Sheeran had accumulated ten top 10 singles from ÷ on the UK Singles Chart, breaking Scottish DJ Calvin Harris's record of most top 10 UK singles from one album. His fourth single from ÷, "Perfect", reached number one in the UK and Australia, while "Perfect Duet", an acoustic version featuring Beyoncé, reached number one in the US. Sheeran appeared on Debrett's 2017 list of the most influential people in the UK.

 

As an actor, Sheeran has portrayed recurring roles on The bast*rd Executioner and Home and Away. He also appeared as a Lannister soldier on Game of Thrones. - Wikipedia

For some reason I had it in my head that this was week 7 for "Perfect". Still 6 weeks is 6 weeks longer than I thought it would manage, though without the duet versions it's unlikely it would've managed it. Dirge!

 

"River" probably number 1 next week then, if "Perfect" moves to ACR.

Not Bruno and Cardi beating Liam and Rita due to streams.

Future hit?

YES Perfect keeping this dullfest off #1 for one more week *.* you've served us well Sir <3

 

p.s. FINESSE GOING TOP 10 :wub:

 

At least next week we should have a brand new #1, finally this can just go away. :D
I do find JT's eventual debut at #15 surprising. I know it's not exactly had the best reception, but I thought he was in a position where he could debut at least resonably big with ANYTHING (especially following a hit as big as CSTF).

Thoughts on some songs I heard for the first time today as I continue to fail at keeping up with new chart music;

 

- Cardi B's parts on the 'Finesse' remix sound fab, I'm not instantly loving all of it but it sounds like a sure grower.

- Liam/Rita is actually surprisingly brilliant, really loving the Naughty Boy-alike production! Sounds like a good Emeli Sandé song. Really wasn't expecting to care for this but probably my favourite of the songs in this post.

- Jax Jones is also great, kind of reminds me of INNA, another good sign for dance music in the chart generally getting better again *.

- Not3s was another good song from him, not quite as good as 'Aladdin' for me yet but might be another grower

- 'The Greatest Show' was another one that was surprisingly pretty good, there was one bit with some questionable vocals but that aside it's very catchy and ~interesting~. 'Rewrite The Stars' not so much, it was alright but sounded very dated. Weird that they played both of these but not 'This Is Me'...

- 'Bartier Cardi' sounded like another bop but I need to hear the uncensored version. Not sure if I prefer it to 'Bodak Yellow' or not just yet.

 

A good bunch of songs overall.

 

(also yay for Ramz and Clean Bandit going top 5, Craig going top 10 and Kendrick and Steel Banglez making the top 40 *.)

So pleased Craig and Bastille got that #10 spot. Great song! (Not to mention Lita is rubbish)

It really amuses how they literally play the eventual top 3 every single week right at the start of the show as "the contenders" :lol: like in the exact order they are going to be.

 

Wish these Soundtrack songs would bugger off, they are ALL horrible.

 

On the plus it's great to see Craig sneak into the top 10 ahead of one those tracks in that very category mentioned above!
