Heart Breakfast
with Ed James
There was no one else I could write about this month other than Ed Sheeran.
It’s been a long 12 months without him, but he was well and truly back in January, announcing to his fans his return in true understated Ed Sheeran style with a piece of paper saying ‘New music coming Friday!’
'After that the internet erupted, and of course fans were elated (and as a huge Ed Sheeran fan so was I!) As promised, the following Friday we were playing Ed Sheeran’s new singles ‘Castle On The Hill’ and ‘Shape Of You’ on Heart, which are both incredible.
The singles went straight to the top of the charts to take the number one and two slots on the Vodafone Big Top 40, and deservedly so. And, he made history with both of his comeback singles reaching over 13 million streams in 24 hours.
Gemma and I had plenty to ask when we were joined by the man of the moment on Heart Breakfast, including “What actually happened in the palace with the sword, Princess Beatrice and James Blunt?”
More importantly though, Ed exclusively revealed to Heart Breakfast that he’s planning on releasing a Christmas single! The song is called ‘Perfect’ and is about girlfriend Cherry Seaborn. He told us; “I’m going to film a video of me in the snow for it to make it a Christmas song.” He clarified that; “It’s not a Christmas song but nor is ‘Stay Another Day’ East 17 and they’ve managed that. I just need to get a big white parker jacket, sit in the middle of the
snow, sway slowly from side to side and click.” He has a good point!
He also told us about his celebrity ‘mancave’ in his house in Suffolk. Apparently it’s “painted completely black and you can write on the wall with chalk pen so everyone’s written their signature and then there are just bean bags and then a massive ash tray in the middle.” Knowing that they’ll be some pretty special signatures on the walls, Gemma asked him to spill the beans on who’s visited. Ed told us that his favourite guest was rapper Stormzy because he got him to visit his country pub in the middle of nowhere, drink a pint of local ale and hang out with his cats.
Does anyone else just wish they could have been there to witness that or is it just me?
