Seacrest interviews Sheeran during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions him about the meaning behind his single The A Team. 

The A Team subject matter doesn’t exactly lend itself to radio play, but it’s all seems to be working out. I’m not really questioning it too much!

Seacrest interviews Sheeran during On Air With Ryan Seacrest. During the interview, Seacrest asks him questions about his album, working with Elton John, and his American tour with Taylor Swift.

I was in America for 11-and-a-half months, which as an Englishman is quite a tough thing to do. I lived in Nashville for six months, I lived in L.A. for three months and New York for two.

Seacrest interviews Sheeran during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions him about his inspiration for the single Sing.

I feel like I was veering off in one direction with that song to kind of make it a very R&B song. I wanted to pull it back and make it English, which is why I put the rap in it. [Sing is about] Someone I met in Vegas. It was last summer. We went out for food afterwards sushi.

Sheeran, The Game collaboration

Announcement0 Comments

Sheeran announces he and The Game plan a joint album to be released in 2015. The Game and Sheeran only planed to collaborate on one song together but, when they got in the studio they recorded seven instead.

Ed came up with the idea to start working on a joint album, and we started doing it. He was on that guitar. Acoustically, he’s a genius, man, so when he does that, what comes out of me is songs like (The Game hits) Dreams and Hate It or Love It and My Life. The songs that we got, they’re real songs. And I can’t wait for people to hear ’em.

Sheeran performs All of the Stars on, The Voice with Christina Grimmie. Grimmie says:

Thank you Adam Levine for wanting to sign me to your label because after 5 years on YouTube, not a single label out there would sign me. And he has known me for only a couple months and would you look at that. Adam believes in me, as did my team Grimmie all these years.
