I love the emotion that is conveyed in this song. The way Ed sings this song is exactly what makes this song such an awesome feel to listen to. The rhythm and the string section is completely awesome. The guitar and the hooks are off the charts. No wonder this song hit the iTunes chart this fast.
Ed Sheeran knows his business!
