How's he not already have a thread when he's one of the biggest names in Music? I don't mind his songs, I like he's got a strong relationship especially by celebrity standards and I like a lot that he's a massive tax payer and doesn't try and hide his millions like a lot of famous people do. Now I know he tends to copy songs from the past because there are only so many ways to play a guitar and make the tune sound original. But jeez he likes to copy a song. The Matt Cardle rip off is probably the one that has had the most press coverage and it's undeniable.

From what I know from mutual friends who've known him for years, he's one of the good ones. Loyal and pretty much the same as he was from years ago. I always admired that when he became successful, he got people to support him that he gigged with when he started. He could have done the usual thing of getting bands to pay to open up for him. But he didn't. That says a lot about someone as a person.
Yep one of the nicest people in music industry.
I love Ed Sheeran's songs I think he's great.
Always thought Perfect sounds just like If I could turn back the hands of time
If I Could Turn Back The Hands Of Time is hardly a work of immense originality either.
It's a bit of a shame that Ed's tracks have become more generic songwriting wise. I preferred his earlier more inspired pre-major label debut album stuff.
"The Joker And The Queen"'s probably the best thing he's done in a while. It'll probably be the song most played as a first dance at weddings this year...

That's a classic tune tarnished by being linked to R Kelly. I agree about that song being played at weddings. He's more popular for his up tempo songs but tunes like his latest, Perfect and Thinking Out Loud are all brilliant ballads.
Bad habits is good but I can never forget it sounds exactly like Smalltown Boy by Bronski Beat, then Get The Party Started by Pink
See I don't hear that but your probably right, but he'll there's only so many musical notes! It's not as bad as dua lipas knock off song or blurred lines
His court case continues. Seems daft to pay out five million to someone if you don't believe you've done anything wrong.
I'm sure he's very nice, but sooo bland, boring and uninspiring. It's a "no" from me!
Oh I agree - it’s just when something stands out it sticks in your head i guess.
The Pink bit is when the beat kicks in. Replace…
“My bad habits lead to late nights endin' alone
Conversations with a stranger I barely know“ with
“Get this party started on a Saturday night
Everybody's waitin' for me to arrive…”
it’s 2 for the price of 1 in the (alleged) copying stakes
Ed Sheeran Shape Of You copyright case: Star wins trial over plagiarism claim by Sami Switch
Shape Of You and its "Oh I" hook were at the heart of the legal dispute between Ed Sheeran and Sami Chokri, known as Sami Switch - but the judge has now found that any similarities with the 2015 song Oh Why are not enough to be considered plagiarism.
Breaking news he's been cleared. Being able to afford the best lawyers possible will help.
He's no longer got the shivers about this case. His castle on the hill won't be sold for legal costs.
He's finally been able to talk in public about it. I think even though he says he didn't copy he will be more careful in the future.
