Posted July 2, 20214 yr Ed Sheeran only now reaches Sir Calvin Harris' level of #1 singles, but who had the better collection of #1s? Let's compare like for like 1. Dance Wiv Me [Dizzee ft Calvin] vs. Sing 2. I'm Not Alone vs. Thinking Out Loud 3. We Found Love [Rihanna ft Calvin] vs. Shape of You 4. Sweet Nothing vs. Perfect 5. Under Control vs. River [Eminem ft Ed] 6. Summer vs. I Don't Care 7. Blame vs. Beautiful People 8. Feels vs. Take Me Back To London 9. One Kiss vs. Own It [stormzy ft Ed] 10. Promises vs. Bad Habits It may surprise none of you that I'm fully on Team Calvin here, ten for ten. :lol: Do any of Ed's #1s outdo Calvin's efforts for you, or are you the other way around and find yourself mostly bopping to Ed?
July 2, 20214 yr Yeah Calvin wins every time. My favourite ed songs are the ones that didn't even go to #1.
July 2, 20214 yr Let's see... 1. Dance Wiv Me [Dizzee ft Calvin] vs. Sing 2. I'm Not Alone vs. Thinking Out Loud (I do actually really like 'Thinking Out Loud' though) 3. We Found Love [Rihanna ft Calvin] vs. Shape of You 4. Sweet Nothing vs. Perfect 5. Under Control vs. River [Eminem ft Ed] 6. Summer vs. I Don't Care (both utterly dreadful :puke2: ) 7. Blame vs. Beautiful People 8. Feels vs. Take Me Back To London 9. One Kiss vs. Own It [stormzy ft Ed] 10. Promises vs. Bad Habits I would have actually picked 'Thinking Out Loud' over a few of Calvin's others here, but it's clear who the winner is. Must be about time for them to collab, surely?

Under Control vs. River [Eminem ft Ed] 6. Summer vs. I Don't Care 7. Blame vs. Beautiful People 8. Feels vs. Take Me Back To London 9. One Kiss vs. Own It [stormzy ft Ed] 10. Promises vs. Bad Habits Well... at least it's not 10/10 for Calvin :magic: I do think though that Ed's list of #1s is not exactly highlighting his best songs (I'd put 'River' and 'I Don't Care' somewhere pretty close to the absolute worst songs he's been involved with, 'Own It' would rank fairly lowly too (it's one of my least favourite Stormzy songs), 'Shape Of You' I liked at the time but it was killed by overplay and I do still have a soft spot for 'Perfect' but it's rendered a little pointless by 'Thinking Out Loud' serving the same purpose but being an infinitely better song). Speaking of which, TOL would beat at least 8 of the other Calvin songs on that list (close call between it and 'Sweet Nothing'), it just happens to be drawn against Calvin's best song :lol: On the flipside, the only songs on Calvin's lot that I wouldn't place towards the better end of his discog are 'Blame' (mid to low tier) and 'Feels' (would be quite close to his absolute worst for me, although tbf there are plenty of album tracks I haven't heard). Comparing their entire discog I'd probably give the edge to Ed.
July 3, 20214 yr 1. Dance Wiv Me [Dizzee ft Calvin] vs. Sing. <- both are terrible 2. I'm Not Alone vs. Thinking Out Loud 3. We Found Love [Rihanna ft Calvin] vs. Shape of You 4. Sweet Nothing vs. Perfect 5. Under Control vs. River [Eminem ft Ed] 6. Summer vs. I Don't Care 7. Blame vs. Beautiful People 8. Feels vs. Take Me Back To London 9. One Kiss vs. Own It [stormzy ft Ed] 10. Promises vs. Bad Habits <- both are terrible Thinking out Loud would have won most of the other pairings :D

July 3, 20214 yr I'm going to save myself posting the list because all 10 picks would be Calvin for me :lol:

Promises vs. Bad Habits 7/10 for Calvin. I actually prefer Summer to a lot of Calvin's #1s but I Don't Care is easily my fave of Ed's #1s so an unlucky draw there.
