#music Ed Sheeran - Zane Lowe Session

I wasn't too keen on Ed Sheeran until recently. Mostly because I didn't like his back story. I just didn't buy it. Sofa surfing, befriending grime artists and playing a gig every night in London at the same time I was living in the Big Smoke. I had never heard of him, neither had anybody I knew. Then the whole living rough tales didn't sit well with me as he comes from a pretty privileged background.

What changed my opinion? His cameo with Taylor Swift at The O2 was pretty cool, he's a top tweeter but it's his new single, Sing where I did a huge u-turn. His a real good song writer and the progression from his debut + to his forthcoming follow-up x is HUGE. Last night he did a session for Zane Lowe, showcasing new material, giving some old favourites an outing and covering Bruce Springsteen and it is real good. I totally get it now!
Listen here.

This is the stand-out track for me. It's about Ellie Goulding.
