This mini-feature serves as a companion for today's song of the day: Thinking Out Loud by Ed Sheeran. Readers that have been here for a while know that I am a huge fan of Ed, and I was really impressed with his latest video, so I just wanted to write up a short blurb about it.
Ed Sheeran is famous for only making cameos in his own music videos. Since his start, each video has only featured the actual singer for a few seconds at the most. The past few videos for "Sing" and "Don't" have left some fans a little perplexed, as they were a little odd at first watch. However, the "Thinking Out Loud" video is totally different. It's romantic and for the first time, it actually features Ed. In fact, the entire video is of the singer dancing around a ballroom with a girl. The song, at first listen, is reminiscent of many wedding songs, so I believe the video did it justice. The dance is passionate, and when combined with the beautiful ballroom they're in and well-done directing, it's an amazing video. It's gotten a hugely positive reaction, and it shows that Ed maybe has some layers we don't see. I for one, did not know he could dance that well. Is Dancing with the Stars in Ed's future? :)
--Also, a fun fact about the video: Ed lost 35 pounds for the video by abstaining from drinking beer and instead drinking vodka.
