    I feel like not enough people fully understand and appreciate the sheer talent it takes to be able to play, run a loop pedal, and sing all at the same time without compromising the quality of the music.

      I've seen him live and he uses a loop pedal through his whole set. It's basically just him, a guitar and a lop pedal creating an amazing experience.

      Lewis Smith There were definitely tweaks to the audio, also the production value is unbelievable so there is clearly production but that doesn't take away from his talent and sound. Just wouldn't glorify him to the point that you would say there wasn't any production or tweaks

    1,742 words (I just spent a couple of hours writing out the lyrics) and not a single mistake. He just created insane loops and mashed up about 5 different rap styles, with a couple of covers and a new verse over 11 minutes and didn't make a single mistake, that accuracy level is actually crazy. Amazing raw talent :)

    What no-one has noted is the history of writing this song. E.S. was informed by his first recording company, “We’re sure you’re an up and coming young performer, but you need to stick to your easy-listening folksong genre and not attempt rap or hiphop. Also, you will be totally unmarketable unless you get rid of that appalling red hair.” This is the retort he penned to their verdict: “I think you’ll find that you need me a lot more than I need you.” One of the most elaborate fingers in the history of music.

      well..his voice is cool tho, but he asured himself that he went to the hard road and worked hard to get where he is now. i've seen a lot of interviews and he said that a lot of times. Of course he had his inspirations and talent, but you said it like he's pure talent. I think if you say that, you're kinda decreasing what he has done so far in the hardwork way. understand?

But he worked his backside off and is easily one of the most skilled musicians because he understands music on a much deeper level than a good majority of pop stars and even producers now days. He works to be as good as he is, and that is what makes him one of the best musicians of the current era of music :)

    So fucking iconic. I’ve been coming back to this for years. Can’t get enough!!!!! Ed you are a absolute legend. It’s been such a pleasure watching you grow and succeed all these years. You deserve it all and more. 🙏🏻❤️

    Now I'm in town, break it down, thinking of making a new sound
    Playing a different show every night in front of a new crowd
    That’s you now, ciao, seems that life is great now
    See me lose focus as I sing to you loud
    And I can’t, no, I won’t hush
    I’ll say the words that make you blush
    I’m gonna sing this now
    See, I’m true, my songs are where my heart is
    I'm like glue I stick to other artists
    I'm not you, now that would be disastrous
    Let me sing and do my thing and move to greener pastures
    See, I’m real, I do it all, it’s all me
    I’m not fake, don’t ever call me lazy
    I won’t stay put, give me the chance to be free
    Suffolk sadly seems to sort of suffocate me, hey
    [Chorus]
    Cause you need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you at all
    You need me, man, I don't need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you at all
    You need me
    [Verse 2]
    I sing, "I write my own tune and I write my own verse," hell
    Don't need another wordsmith to make my tunes sell
    Call yourself a singer-writer, you’re just bluffing
    Name’s on the credits and you didn’t write nothing
    I sing, fast, I know that all my shit's cool
    I will blast and I didn't go to Brit school
    I came fast with the way I act, right
    I can’t last, if I’m smoking on a crack pipe
    And I won’t be a product of my genre
    My mind will always be stronger than my songs are
    Never believe the bullshit that fake guys feed to ya
    Always read the stories that you hear on Wikipedia
    Musically I’m demonstrating
    When I perform live, feels like I am meditating
    Times at the enterprise when some fella filmed me
    A young singer writer like a Gabriella Cilmi yeah
    [Chorus]
    Cause you need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you at all
    You need me, man, I don't need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you at all
    You need me man
    [Verse 3]
    All I want in this cold world is to make music and use it
    Not to abuse it and get affected, infected with the who's who of music
    Who did it, who is it, who's in it or what the hell does it matter?
    Chitter chatter, don't matter what a yidder, yidder, yadder, it don't matter to me
    All I want is a bit of dignity in me to battle this industry freely
    To be me in this seedy, needy world, can you hear me?
    Hey, so I keep singing that
    When I first started this rapping shit I felt pressure from haters
    Became invaded with sadists and just developed a hater radar
    And made for the stars, kept my grind in the dark
    And then appeared with a remedy kicking rhymes with a melody
    Hennesey shots and Glocks, all these fools on the block
    Who said you gotta be a gangster now to raise to the top?
    I'm just a normal, casual, usual, everyday type of guy
    With my head in the sky, Ed Sheeran, Urban Angel coming ready to die
    So see the signs, stand to the side
    Open your eyes and take a look and realize
    The resurrection's arrived and as the mist clears
    I arise from my tomb in disguise, all alone, Alonestar
    Urban Angel rising from the ashes
    Surprising all haters, guiding, now moving steady
    [Pre-Chorus]
    You can find me in the club, bottle full of bub
    Mummy I've got the X if you're into taking drugs
    Into having sex, I ain't into making love
    Come give me a hug if you're into getting rough
    You can find me in the club, bottle full of bubbly
    Mummy I've got the X if you're into taking drugs
    Into having sex, I ain't into making love
    Come give me a hug if you're into getting rough
    [Chorus]
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you at all
    You need me, man, I don't need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you at all
    You need me
    [Instrumental break]
    [Bridge]
    My eyes are red, I've been burning, I've been burning
    My eyes are red, I've been burning, I've been burning
    My eyes are red I've been burning, I've been burning on a spliff off your high grade
    My eyes are red I've been burning, I've been burning, burning, burning
    [Verse 4]
    Now where I come from burning weed it is a habit
    A big fat bag of high grade weed, you know I got to have it
    Cos if I don't have it in my pocket I'm going to panic
    Cos like I said where I come from weed smoking is a habit
    Yup, we'll do da bun in the place up in the hood
    One of them things I have inherited like a ghetto man should
    One of them things is smoking weed it yes it makes me feel good
    Burning high grade sensimilla, yes it makes me feel
    But me is a man, ah, talk about sensimilla is a drug
    And if I start to smoke it I'mma-nna turn into a thug
    Where I come from that they talking could that only get you mugged
    Where I come from burning weed it is a blessing from above
    Where I come from yes we bun it when we listen rub a dub
    Where I come from yes we bun after we just-a make a love
    Where I come from yes we bun it when the sun starts shine
    I blaze high grade weed all the time!
    [Bridge]
    Now my eyes are red
    Cause you need me, I don't need you
    You need me man, my eyes are red
    You need me man, I don't need you
    You need me man, my eyes are red
    And you need me, I don't need you
    You need me man, my eyes are red
    You need me man, I don't need you
    You need me man, I don't need you
    [Instrumental break]
    [Interlude]
    Woooah
    Woooah
    Woooah
    Yea
    [Verse 5]
    Cause with the lyrics I'll be aiming it right
    I won't stop until my name's in lights
    With stadium heights, with Damian Rice
    On red carpets, now I'm on Arabian Nights
    Because I'm young I know my brothers gonna give me advice
    Long nighter, short height and I gone hyper
    Never be anything but a singer/songwriter, yeah
    The game's over but now I'm on a new level
    Watch how I step on the track without a loop pedal
    People think that I'm bound to blow up
    I've done around about a thousand shows but
    I haven't got a house plus I live on a couch
    So you believe the lyrics when I'm singing them out
    Wow, from day one I've been prepared
    With V05 wax for my ginger hair
    Now I'm back to the sofa giving a dose of
    What the future holds cause it's another day
    [Verse 6]
    Rucksack with the old clothes, I rap with cold flows
    I'm back with the old jokes, in fact you don't know
    On tracks I throw blows to make my punchlines relevant
    If you can't keep up you'll get none, you're celibate
    My flows developing, skin lacks the melanin
    Give me a shot of adrenaline and I get it in
    Do it for the hell of it
    Cause ever since I hit the mainstream with The A Team I seem to sell a bit
    I took what held me back with the women, then I packaged the image
    Put in some content, then I sold it back as a gimmick
    The fact is this, I'll end up dating actresses
    Wake up on dirty mattresses, I think I'll need to practice this
    But I make shit happen, call me a laxative
    World's on my shoulders, I don't even know what Atlas is
    Hard bars sharp like a cactus is
    I'm back to rapping, back to back cause I've been practicing
    I'm back to sing this
    [Chorus]
    Cause you need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you at all
    You need me, man, I don't need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you at all
    You need me, man
    [Verse 7]
    I'll keep my last name forever, keep this genre pretty basic
    And I'll be breaking into other people's tunes when I chase it
    And replace it with the elephant in the room with a facelift
    Into another rapper shoes using new laces
    I'm selling CD's from my rucksack aiming for the papers
    Selling CD's from my rucksack aiming for the majors
    Nationwide tour with Just Jack, still had to get the bus back
    Clean cut kid without a razor for the mustache
    I hit back, when the pen hurts me
    I'm still a choir boy in a Fenchurch tee
    I'm still the same as a year ago but more people hear me though
    According to the MySpace and RUclips videos
    I'm always doing shows if I'm not I'm in the studio
    Truly broke, never growing up, call me Rufio
    Melody music maker, reading all the papers
    They say I'm up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator
    [Chorus]
    Cause you need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you at all
    You need me, man, I don't need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you
    You need me, man, I don’t need you at all
    You need me man
    Don't need yu
    [Outro]

    • @betterbelle29
      @betterbelle29 5 лет назад +6

      So
      a) What he's playing while singing isn't hard
      b) Notice he doesn't play hard licks while singing
      c) If there is a hard lick that he slips between bars, you'll notice he doesn't play the licks if he sings through the bar because it would likely make him screw up.
