Where did you get that idea? He wrote it about his grandmother, who died when he was making the Divide album.
Where did you get that idea? He wrote it about his grandmother, who died when he was making the Divide album.I heard that Ed Sheeran song Supermarket Flowers song played at my friend's funeral and I thought 'oh, that's sad. Ed must have written this when his mum died', as the lyrics 'you were an angel in the shape of my mum' would suggest.
Then I find out his mum is hale and hearty and running a bead shop, or something similar that you definitely have to be alive to do. So he cynically wrote the Dead Mum Song purely because he knew it would be used from now until eternity at loads of mum funerals.
I wonder if his mum side-eyed him when that came out.
Haha! In that case I can highly recommend the SAW documentary that was on Channel 5 a few weeks ago. Partly cos it’s quite interesting to see how the became the big songwriting machine they were in the 80s, but also cos it’s a huge nostalgia fest listening back to all the music. I had no idea I still remembered Mel & Kim lyrics from 1980 whatever it was!In fairness I have a lifelong love of SAW music like Kylie and Sinitta so I’m not in any position to judge.
I got the idea from the lyrics he wrote...Where did you get that idea? He wrote it about his grandmother, who died when he was making the Divide album.
Fair enough. It was common knowledge among fans that it was about his grandmother but if you weren't a fan and just came across the song I can see how you'd think that.I got the idea from the lyrics he wrote...
They're frenemies now ... they made up a little while ago.More likely to end up in the boxing ring with those two involved, given their history.
On a similar note, I can’t stand that ‘Castle on the hill’ song, because it sounds as if he’s looking down on his friends almost…I think my dislike of Ed Sheeran comes from that song he wrote about a friend’s miscarriage. I don’t know if they approved its release or not but it seems trite to make money out of somebody’s tragedy.
Gormless Girl?Katie Price was telling everyone a while ago that Ed Sheeran had written a song for her and and was going to duet with her. Career suicide
I prefer the Spanish Love Songs¹ equivalent²On a similar note, I can’t stand that ‘Castle on the hill’ song, because it sounds as if he’s looking down on his friends almost…
‘One is barely getting by’ (or whatever he sings)

I like when he sings "When I was six years old" and then a few lines later "I was younger then". No, really?On a similar note, I can’t stand that ‘Castle on the hill’ song, because it sounds as if he’s looking down on his friends almost…
I loved that documentary!Haha! In that case I can highly recommend the SAW documentary that was on Channel 5 a few weeks ago.

Does remind me of the additional verse of The Boxer by Simon and GarfunkelI like when he sings "When I was six years old" and then a few lines later "I was younger then". No, really?
Isn't it wierd Nicolas Lyndhurst is going to be in the Frasier reboot?Spotted this on Farcebook of Jane Leeves (Daphne in Fraiser) being interviewed by Claudia W. This was a lovely comment I spotted - "Ah I represented Jane Leeves in the UK at this time. I was her British agent and remember organising this interview. A genuinely lovely person. Kind, funny and generous." https://www.facebook.com/
It was fab…. I was one of those girls that went to radio city each Saturday.. Pete Waterman was lovely to us and used to get us tickets for free to the roadshow concerts…. best days…..Haha!

I am old enough to remember him Butterflies, but always prefered the actor playing his brother. He was also on New Tricks, and I felt sorry for him as the other characters that had gone were so strong (I liked the actress who played his daughter). It will be interesting to hear what kind of accent they give him, as to me is quite cardboard and lacking dimensions at times.Isn't it wierd Nicolas Lyndhurst is going to be in the Frasier reboot?
Just can't see how that will work
And I love Frasier.
We saw Jane in Cabaret at Studio 54 on our honeymoon in June 2002!! She was fabulous as Sally Bowles.Spotted this on Farcebook of Jane Leeves (Daphne in Fraiser) being interviewed by Claudia W.

i’ve always liked her, and she is really wonderful in frasier! i wish she did more stuff now as i feel she hasn’t been in anything for a long while.Spotted this on Farcebook of Jane Leeves (Daphne in Fraiser) being interviewed by Claudia W.

“Castle on the Hill” is my musical kryptonite… it gets me in the feels every time and has moved me to tears in supermarkets when it comes on.On a similar note, I can’t stand that ‘Castle on the hill’ song, because it sounds as if he’s looking down on his friends almost…

A certain DJ on radio one (who's now left), brought up a few times that ES lyrics were fictional. They referenced the Galway girl song, there's no pubs on Grafton Street.On a similar note, I can’t stand that ‘Castle on the hill’ song, because it sounds as if he’s looking down on his friends almost…
