Artist in Focus: Ed Sheeran

I admit, I took notice mainly because he looked a lot like Rupert Grint. Then I heard him sing. And then the heavens opened.

Ed Sheeran has been making waves in the UK since last year. He has been awarded the 2012 Break Through Artist and Best Solo Male Artist in the Brit Awards.

He first came out with his single, A Team which debuted at the 3rd spot in the UK Chart. I didn't take notice THEN. But I was swept away when he came out with Lego House:



I am so in love with this song! And the way he sang is so simple, so fresh and just remarkable! It's one of those songs that literally stops you in your tracks because it's so good!

The lyrics are also incredible! I have a thing for alternative love songs so this one is super appealing to me.

I'll pick you up when you're getting down
And out of all these things I've done 

I think I love you better now

I am developing a fondness for British bands nowadays and Ed Sheeran is just one testament to how good these Brits are!
