Ed Sheeran announces release of a new song from his album, Divide

In fact, both the tracks debuted in the top 10 of Billboard Hot 100 last month. It makes Ed Sheeran the first ever artiste to achieve this feat. “Shape of You” is actually hanging onto its number 1 spot for the last three weeks now. Did you know that “Shape of You” was actually not written for Ed’s album but for a collaboration with “We Found Love” singer Rihanna? Oh yes! He revealed this in an interview to Rolling Stone.

On the Instagram post, Ed said, “How Would You Feel (Paean) comes out at midnight on Friday wherever you are in the world, it’s not the next single, but is one of my favzzzzz” and we are excited about it!”
