keep it x

He should call the next one ? so it goes + x ÷ = ?

As the title has two - signs, does that mean it will be a double album?

boooo artistic integrity ruined never listening to ed again

 

new narrative: we'll spend forever speculating that album 5 in the series is '-' until he goes and ruins everyone's expectations by calling it % or something

People thinking that Minus sounds too negative seem to have forgotten he released an album called Divide.

 

Disappointed he didn’t go for Parenthesis, but that would probably have annoyed the Sigur Ros fans.

less than 3 months after 2016 no less, in fact I'm surprised he wasn't cancelled more.

Divide should have been called - because it's so reductive.

That's what I thought when I saw the thread, it's called subtract equals.

The reason he didn’t call it “Minus” is because if you put two copies of the album together it becomes a copy of “Plus”.

So we’re pretending that Afterglow just never happened then

I would have called it “–“ and pronounced it as “Subtract” rather than “minus, negative, take away” or any other term used.

Well at least that's by far his best work :D

Yes. It's what the world wants.

I try to pretend that none of it ever happened tbh

Not if you turn them round. Then it becomes a copy of Multiply.

haha let's all pretend (Ed included) that Afterglow never existed :o

I don't think Afterglow was ever intended for the album?

I'm sure this discussion has come up before... Ed confirmed when it came out that it wasn't from an upcoming album.

Are you maybe a bit jealous of him? Has netted him nearly 50 million quid already though....

 

What a stupid comment. I think you’re missing my point entirely. Are you for real?

Yeah I'm pretty sure we had this discussion in the 'Bad Habits' thread already. But yanno we need to make out that Ed is forgetting about the song because it flopped or something and not because he explicitly said when he released it that it wasn't a single from his next album, just a song that he wanted to release.

Do you guys think he’ll block Mariah Carey from getting a second year at #1 this year?
