March 17, 20223 yr Wouldn’t be surprised if the first single is a collaboration with Bring Me The Horizon or they will at least feature on the album. They did say they were working on more music with Ed.
March 17, 20223 yr So Ed Sheeran to hog the No.1 spot for the next 6 to 12 months, by knocking himself off with every single release going. Love to see it... desperate... much -_- :drama: that could happen if he releases 2 albums this year. Mind you, not every track will reach the #1 spot I would imagine.

March 17, 20223 yr Im amazed the label is not worried with overexposure a new album Collaboration 7 now and then another album (Edklore) in the fall sounds like overdose to me with an album released every 6 months, he really wants to be the new Taylor :D Difference is Taylor drops the album with a lead single on release day and doesn't do any more promo or any more singles. Crazy she didn't push Exile or Champagne Problems. But Ed has been releasing singles like crazy for the last 9 months, Bad Habits, Shivers, Overpass Graffiti, the Xmas one, the Xmas one + Ladbaby, then Peru, then The Joker and the Queen. The label should be worried about saturation! Edited March 17, 20223 yr by Bjork
March 17, 20223 yr oh for f***s sake he can’t give us a break?? is this going to be “experimental” and “without promo” again ie radio friendly as possible and with huge playlist pushing? he’s really after that Elvis number ones record so must have figured this is the best way to do it.

I had always presumed the Elvis record would never get broken just due to the nature of the music industry nowadays wit a lot of super successful acts still having a shelf life and various other circumstances now like track limits & ACR rules but I hadn't noticed that Sheeran is already on 13 #1s so it's really not a stretch to think he could actually do it one day. Especially seeing as he himself has stopped 3 of his own songs going to #1 as well.
March 17, 20223 yr Author ^yes and will not count as an album Oh not that debate again! It’s obvious that No. 6 shouldn’t be considered alongside his “main” albums.
March 17, 20223 yr I'm sure he'll continue having #1s cos like it or not he knows how to play the chart game and he would go to the lowest of the lowest points to grab a #1 (ie the Ladbaby collaboration)
March 17, 20223 yr Because Ed Sheeran doesn't have enough songs out at the moment..? Imagine if the "curveball" is he is the "featured artist" on all the songs on the album and therefore dodges the 3-track rule :wacko:
March 17, 20223 yr It depends, 'Joker' is a bomb outside of Amazon and iTunes despite Taylor being on it, on the other hand Peru is a hit because of Ed on it... Afterglow stalling at #2 and fading away quickly demonstrated that he can also underperform solo.
March 17, 20223 yr Joker & Queen is probably flopping just because it's a bad song (imo) regardless of if it's the Taylor remix or not lol, meanwhile Peru is a much better song (again imo) and that's been successful. I also wouldn't use Afterglow as an example of him underperforming, a random single with no promo dropped randomly in the middle of the week in the busiest time of the year still reaching #2 is more an example of his power on the charts I'd say.
March 17, 20223 yr ^Afterglow was insta-added as track #1 on HH the minute it was released, no promo at all lol
March 17, 20223 yr Presumably Lewis Capaldi will occupy a spot but could this be an attempt to have the Top 3 positions on the 2022 year end chart? Either that or it's to clear his court fees! :lol: I really liked the singles from '=' (yes, even 'The Joker & The Queen' I didn't find that bad, I think the production at least is good) but I'm not holding my breath on that continuing.
March 18, 20223 yr This could be the Irish album he was thinking of making I can remember him saying about it in an interview. Which would make sense when he says about it not being big in New Zealand but be a hit in another place.
