Ed Sheeran 'X' review


Hello everyone! Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I have been extremely busy with exams and just life in general but I have decided to do a short review on Ed Sheeran's new album 'X' because it is amazing and I have been really enjoying it!
Recently the whole world has been ecstatic as Ed Sheeran's new album was finally released worldwide on June 23rd after years of waiting and desperation. Immediately the album became number 1 on top of the iTunes chart in more than 65 countries including the US, Australia and Germany. The album, pronounced 'multiply' features the number 1 single in the UK 'sing' which was written by Ed himself and Pharrell Williams and creates a different sound to his usual songs as it provides more of an upbeat tune. The album also includes other songs by the name of 'Don't', 'One' and 'Photograph' all with massive potential and a possibility of hitting the top spot in the future.
My favourite though has got to be the beautiful 'Thinking Out Loud' because I think the lyrics are so meaningful and the sound is just lovely. I hope this song is released as a single shortly because despite it not having a music video, it has already entered the charts and from today it is 29th! As well as this 'Don't' is in the charts at 22. I also particularly love how Ed has done more rap especially in the song 'Take It Back' because it shows the true depth of what he is capable off and shows off his enormous talent. 
All together 'X' is an incredible album and Ed has made such an improvement from his previous material on '+' (which I didn't know would be possible) and some how 'X' may even be better than '+' even though they are both truly magnificent! The songs on this album provide a different sound and it is brilliant for when you just want to relax which is great for over the summer. It is defiantly worth a listen if you have not already and I really cant wait to start seeing some more of his music videos!
