Equal sounds much better than minus tbh

In a divided world that seems like an apt choice too if the albums message was all about equality, plus all the political unrest from protests multiplying!

 

EDIT: I just realised I used mathematical words in that statement from Ed’s catalogue! :cool:

where is it gonna debut? R1?

Edited by Bjork

it's premiering in 3 minutes on R1, they just announced it
oh not the first single from the new album, just a random single

Interesting vocals with the double-tracking, but makes it sound way less commercial.

 

It's pretty nice on first listen, I don't think it will be challenging LadBaby for Xmas No.1, it sounds big but certainly not Shape Of You huge.

it's kinda on the same vein as SUPERMARKET FLOWERS :)

 

an Iron & Wine reference! Iron & Wine is one of the best underground indie bands ever, so Ed trying to "be authentic" I guess with that reference

On first listen, this is by far my favourite song of his. He's gone a little bit Bon Iver.
It really is his Folklore moment - good call on that! I guess it was expected what with lockdown and the birth of his daughter (and his bezzie Taylor's huge success) that he'd be in a more reflective mood.

insta added as track #1 on HH on Spotify

 

it sounds very classic singer-songwriter song

I think this is very David Gray-White Ladder territory

as usual with Ed, good melody, he clearly has an ear for music and can write a song,

but lyrics are just ok, nothing amazing in those lyrics but at least they're not as silly or idiotic as most of his old songs
