While his first new single takes more of a slowed down and reminiscent approach, the latter utilizes a pulsating baseline and infectious synths to provide a fast-paced dancehall inspired banger.
Sheeran does his thing on "Shape Of You" a track that highlights how low inhibitions dip when faced with graceful elegance of your lover's rocking body. As always, this track finds the smooth talking UK singer interlacing tongue in cheek lines with thoughtful sentiments. However, this cut really builds throughout and you subsequently fall in love with it before the four minute track is done. Totally one of those real feel good joints perfect for any occasion.
Though there is no word yet on the official release date of his album, you can listen to this track and his other new single "Castle On The Hill" here.
Quotable Lyrics
Girl, you know I want your love
Your love was handmade for somebody like me
Come on now, follow my lead
I may be crazy, don't mind me
Say, boy, let's not talk too much
Grab on my waist and put that body on me
Come on now, follow my lead
Come, come on now, follow my lead
- Ed Sheeran
