(Plus) - Ed Sheeran CD

“+” (“Plus”) is the amazing debut full length studio album by the young and talented Ed Sheeran, a British singer/song writer. Despite his young age, Sheeran has already released several EPs and toured extensively all over the world, as well as become a YouTube sensation.

The album itself is soulful, catchy, and very urban. Sheeran amply displays how much of a word smith he really is as he covers a wide range of topics including drug addiction, love, loss, and everything inbetween, all with a catchy chorus. Each song is guaranteed to get stuck in your head and leave you hungry for more.

“+” features all four of his hit singles to date, three of which have been in the Top 10 of the UK Singles Chart. The lead single “The A Team” is a beautiful and haunting song that overflows with emotion. The second single “You Need Me, I Don't Need You” is an up-tempo track, whereas the third and fourth singles “Lego House” and “Drunk” are slow and subtle, and each and every one shows a great amount of soul. For new and old fans alike, this album is not one to be missed. (Cat Emerson)
