Ed Sheeran

god this country is a shithole

the whole "it's okay and cool to schill for nandos" thing that seems to be part of the uk scene is pretty awful too.

it is ok to schill for nando's, tho

i mean who gives a fuck, tbh? if the music is good, let them schill, let them not, whatever.

can't deny that spicy rice yo

would rather i didn't have bands advertising a national fast food chain. and the music isn't good...

well, i'm not denying the second, i just think the first is....irrelevant, personally speaking.

it would be if it was just a one-off or something, but it's actually a widespread thing for uk musicians to rep for nandos. they're all given nandos cards etc for free food.

what song has it ever put you off, out of interest?

it hasn't...doesn't mean it's something i'm over the moon for musicians to do though.

oooooh, he needs to be over the moon now, eh

can't remember the last time i was over the moon tbh...

no kidding

sorry :)

haha you do get yourself in these ridic middle-of-the-road grumpy funks though... like the kids enjoy nandos, nandos enjoys money, kids get free food, big deal everyone's happy. snap out of it man

can we all agree at least that whatever tripe he spouts sheeran will never be as big a cunt as example is

for one his name isn't example so, sure, points awarded there.

i am basing that opinion solely on the first 7 seconds of that video btw, dunno if i can recall any of example's work exactly

dunno if i can recall any of example's work exactly

HERE'S AN EXAMPLE

i had to review the capital fm summertime ball a couple of months ago and for most of the duration of example's set i genuinely thought it was some between-song jape or competition winner, like some student or plumber had randomly wandered on stage and started to rap over a preset sample, and i couldn't figure out why everyone seemed to be going wild

sad i did that sorry to my mother and father

i don't get why example and wretch 32 and professor green are such genuinely huge pop stars. like at least i get it with tinchy and chipmunk even if their music is whatevia these days.

loads of x-posts normally i would ridicule people's vaguely anti-corporation ideas except this whole we are ur friends innocent smoothie thing is actually a thing and is quite annoying. but yeah many criticisms of things are sort of mor and pointless...

granted if wretch 32 popped up repping some new boysenberry slurry of innocent's i might concede a line may have been crossed somewhere

just you wait.

No. Just no.

I am annoyed to report that he is infesting America more and more, and I blame you, the good people of the UK, for not drowning him at birth.

during my hiatus a while back i thoroughly enjoyed watching ilm pretend this didnt exist

"slumdon"... clever

i hope it's about the riots, i really want to hear young musicians like ed sheeran tackle that theme.

The infernal satellite radio channel at work currently has four...FOUR!...of this dipshit's songs in heavy rotation. "Give Me Love" somehow < "You Need Me I Don't Need You"

having trouble understanding what's going on on that cover- radioactive Slumdon Bridge is falling down (due to radiation?) meaning that radioactive deer will fall into the Thames?

i've been hearing him a lot on the radio here too :\ ... not on top 40 (yet) though, just boring "adult pop" kinda stations

The message is: reindeer are evil. Everything on Slumdon Bridge was lovely until the reindeer turned up, trailing radioactivity and earthquakes in its satanic wake

looool

Ed Sheeran's tattoo artist tells us about his "proper random" tattoos? Ed Sheeran Names Harry Styles As His Favourite One Direction Member? Ed Sheeran To Perform With Elton John At The Grammys? Ed Sheeran Recalls Sweaty Backstage Encounter With Katy Perry?

lol'ing @ the phenomenon of him in the u.s. may it be short-lived

"this guy's from england and who gives a shit"

^^^ for some reason "The A-Team" gets a lot of burn at the all-night supermarket where I've started working, & it is the worst thing I've heard in a long time

i'm guitar shopping and i kinda wish this guitar wasn't an ed sheeran signature guitar cuz i kinda dig how it looks

(xposts) ... I'm assuming it's because softbatch southerners like the way he sings "it's too co-o-old outside" + namedrops angels (even in the context of their nonexistence) — also, weirdly enough, his pointless jangling rhymes are the closest thing to hip-hop on our store's weirdly sanitized version of top-40

(... not counting Third Eye Blind)

He was unimpressive to me on that Beatles tribute the other night

oh god, just encountered this guy.

one of these dudes (sometimes fronting a band) shows up every few years. i trace a line from dave matthews to jason mraz (sp?) to this guy, with some other folks i'd rather forget filling out the lineage. there's something these guys do with the rhythm guitar, i can't explain it or ID it, but it is supposed to signify "funky" when the music hardly has any bottom and much less any rhythmic interplay that remotely resembles anything i know to be funk.

ugh.

lol u should talk about it in the thread for his new album :P
