"A lot of his music has very negative associations for me so I can’t stand to hear him"
There’s one song I can’t listen to for similar reasons, two actually. However they’re beautifully written. |

I like his song and the way he keeps re-releasing it with some of the notes in a different order.
I can't take to him as a personality. He seems like the really really really nice boy who lives in your street that you can only be in the company of for two minutes.
He has a lot of money. Someone likes him. |

"Boring. Up there with Coldplay and stereophonics.
Music for people who don't like music.
Oh you must be more of a cheeky girls kind of fan.
Music for people that are tone deaf "
Was waiting for you to pipe up about the phonics. |

"Yeah he’s a very talented song writer without doubt. Can’t imagine he puts on a good show though? Seems to have zero personality. "
I thought the same until I seen him in concert, he is brilliant and engages with the crowd really well. I’ve booked to see him again next year  |

If you watch Yesterday, he has a significant role in that.
My all time favourite video is of him shopping in a mall and then surprising someone singing one of his songs. Doesn’t come across as pretentious.

I like most of his music except the sad ones, esp Supermarket Flowers (think it's called that). I've even grown to like his Christmas one.
I've seen him live and he was great, it was a freebie though, I wouldn't pay to see him |

"I just googled him and see that he is a would be Boris lookalike.
For that reason alone I am unlikely to bother with further research into him!"
Which fucking rock have you been hiding under for the last 10 years ? |

"Love him or hate him? Why?
I personally love his music. Think he’s a bit of a prick though ahha "
I'm the opposite... He seems a nice enough feller... But I'd rather listen to someone dragging nails down a blackboard than listen to his tripe... But plenty seem to like his stuff so good luck to him. If you can make money selling formulaic x factor music...go for it. |

I'm not familiar with supermarket flowers... But that's a pretty good name / label for the formula's musak he churns out.
Punter ;I'd like some supermarket flowers please...
Staff : would that be the Adele or Ed flavour sir..? |

"I love love love him! I have a pic of him as screen saver! Everthing about him his looks and obviously his voice just melts me! X
His looks? He looks like a scruffy jippo  "
Iyo!I happen to think he is a cute handsome feller! The eye of the beholder and all that! X |

Not a particularly heavy rock. More of a progressive one.
For the last 20 years or so I have been hiding away in winter enjoying Soca and Calypso at source so, one way or another, coupled with not having a telly, not much chance of chancing on the musical genre produced by the likes of Mr Sheeran! |

Clacton on sea, Essex |
A genius and genuinely nice guy, I remember filming him and buying a signed CD off him when he was at the Salvation Army in Clacton doing a gig before he was famous.
My daughters friend was also doing a gig that night and that's how we met him, the CD I have has songs never released...so far. |

"he's a mediocre singer and a seriously shit lyric writer"
Agreed. He embodies everything about music today. Fake, forgettable, safe, chewing gum pop in one ear and out the other.
People now days never hear of Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Jackson Browne, Leonard Cohen, Bill Withers?

It’s the looper pedal he uses that makes him sound talented. Same 4 chords, and 4/4 time signature as every other shitty pop song (pop=manufactured B.S.), give me prog rock any day of the week!

He never seems to be arrogant, he seems very laid back, and so he's in my good books, I'd say he just makes music because he enjoys it, he doesn't seem to bothered if people like it or hate it, I'm sure he gets alot of trolling yet he's never negative |

Loved his older music. It was a bit different to other stuff in the charts. His new stuff could be sang by any artist in the top 20 and would sound exactly the same |

My worst nightmare is Spotify throwing out a random Ed Sheeran track whilst I'm driving
I crash and die and the first responders assume I am an Ed Sheeran fan and tell my Mum and I ended up getting cremated to fucking Shape of You |

"I think it's quite funny how we are giving opinions, on a guy that just makes music, he doesn't seem judging so guess that's where many of us get our values from in a certain sense  "
There's no malice involved.
He does seem like a nice fella. He does alot for charity. But everytime I hear his music I think to myself why was Bowie taken from us and this little shit is still knocking about. |
