Hey man just wanted to say something ,I am biased towards ed coz he's the bloke who inspired me to start writing songs and playing the guitar a bit more seriously. Also i too like ed had a stutter while i was growing up and my sister was kind enough to buy me his 1st album : + and i resonated with a tune called" you need me, i don't need you ", i learned that tune from back to front and it weirdly enough helped me get rid of my stutter. I am also not the best looking guy on this planet and listening to ed's interviews about maintaining a work ethic and practicing every single day really inspired me and i began channeling my deepest thoughts into lyrics which i eventually made into songs . I know the bloke gets alot of flack for changing his sound but i really love it how he loves exploring every single genre. From soulful ballads like : Perfect ,Thinking out loud , Tenerife Sea to Rap tunes like : Take me Back to London, You need me, Take it back, 2step to pop smashes like bad habits, shivers .. the guy is everything i want to be. Plus he is extremely kind, donates to charities, visits hospitals and never lets the hate get to him. Regardless i love the guy for who he is, in my book he will always be a legend and an inspiration and the funny thing is ed still ends all of his shows with "you need me ". Also i know what ed went through in 2022 , his closest friend Jamal Edwards passed away and that must have shook him because he released a tune called F64 as an ode to jamal and its fucking incredible( check it out on sbtv) also the fact that that many of the tunes in subtract cover insecurities , grief and the main theme on "-" is how to live life without things ( a.k.a Subtract things from life), i am not only hopeful but i am sure this will be his best body of work. Thanks for reading. Lots of love xx

The part about being left hanging is so true. My friend and I went to his concert way back in 2011 and loved him. When he came out with Shape of You and all that generic pop, we were so disappointed. Every time he comes out with a new album, it's another let down, but I guess I never stop hoping

Hey Iām in the exact same boat as you. But the main thing I want is for it to still be an acoustic album, Iāve been waiting for this album for years, excited to hear an acoustic album by Ed, Iām so scared itās going to be riddled with electronic beats, where have you heard itās still more or less acoustic? Out of curiosity

I love his old stuff but his new pop stuff is still brilliant. Not to mention his acoustic live performances of these new songs are just as great as his older stuff. Iām not sure why or how his new stuff is considered bad just because itās pop. Hellā¦ Edās been pop since the beginning. The A team, his biggest hit from the start is pop. It was just more acoustic. But you can still compare a lot of his old songs to his newest pop stuff like bad habits and shivers.

Donāt worry he already said he is releasing that stuff later, it just wasnāt what minus was for him anymore. This is based off his loss the pain of that loss and heās already said eyes closed is the most pop like song on the album in an interview with rolling stone. I think we need to trust Ed with the story heās trying to tell us
